Video: The Juan Maclean, “Happy House”
The concept for this video is so simple and perfectly understated, much like how The Juan Maclean’s disco equation of subtle and no-frills translates to elegance on the dancefloor: LED lights hitting diagonally on white-adorned dancers, with vocalist Nancy Whang in a futuristic hijab-inspired headcloak acting as a lipsticked Uhura striking Martha Graham poses. This video could totally be installed (or performed) in the New Museum and we would not be mad. (via Audioporn)
