Games - 'Everything Is Working'

According to Ears of the Beholder, "Games is an electronic duo featuring Daniel Lopatin of Oneohtrix Point Never." So now you know who Games is because obviously, you already knew about Oneohtrix Point Never. They are huge. They are the Missy Elliot of the psychadelic/IDM drone scene. But really, they've been on p4k a few times and the album is really good (got an 8.2, which is totally good enough for me to download it for free!!!1). It's ambient, droning and repetitive and sounds an awful lot like Steve Reich. Oh yeah, the other member of Games is Joel Ford of Tiger City.

So, it turns out that Games is also really good and also (I'm guessing purposely) impossible to Google, and even harder to Bing (haha, Bing).

Anyway, after the jump, check out the awesome video for "Everything Is Working," which features snippets of what looks like a foreign McDonald's commercial and some of the chillest waves yet.




I'm lovin' it! See what I did there? Maybe this is just viral marketing for McDonald's. Because if there's one thing that I think of when I think of DIY-psychadelic-chillwave music, it's chocolate-dipped ice cream cones.  And if there are two things that I think of when I think of DIY-psychadelic-chillwave music, they are chocolate-dipped ice cream cones and Asian women.

Apparently there is a 7" single coming this summer on Hippos In Tanks, one of those Tumblr-based net labels that are just everywhere and seem to mean nothing.
