Grimes's Vanessa video and d'Eon's Transparency video
We’re about 30 hours behind on this, but the new rules are that only Neil Armstrong and Haile Gebrselassie get to brag about being first, agreed?
Anyway, Grimes and d’Eon, two artists from Montreal interviewed by Dummy here and here are releasing a split on Hippos In Tanks, and here’s two videos from it. The first is Grimes’s Vanessa, directed by Grimes (Claire Boucher to her proverbial) & John Londono, the MP3 of which you can download for free above.

And now here’s d’Eon’s Transparency, directed by Grimes again:
