The New Waves ‘Kalaschnikov pt. 3′
This is a cool new “band “from sweden. The New Waves is no “band”. It was made by laziness, impatientness and unwillingness commit oneself to a ordinary band. The New Waves is a about do whatever you want whenever you want to do it. It only driven forward by ideas that is carried out. There is no rehearsals or jamming behind this. Is not about aiming for goals or success is just about let the intuition take you away somewhere more beautiful.

Avision ‘Sail Away’
This video was a collaboration of the artist and the director in order to gain exposure. The song is about a girl who wants to “get away” this was exaggerated by having them flying through space in a spaceship.
