Hibi no Neiro (Tone of Everyday) by SOUR

Amazing. Simply amazing.

Directors: Masashi Kawamura + Hal Kirkland
+ Magico Nakamura + Masayoshi Nakamura

This Hibi no Neiro (Tone of Everyday) MV was "shot" for SOUR's first mini album Water Flavor EP, which was released on June 17, 2009. The amazing bit? The cast were selected from the actual Sour fan base, from many, many countries around the world. You'll be even more surprised to know that the each person and scene was filmed purely via webcam.

Amazing or not, I ask you???

Can you imagine what it took to direct this MV? It's nuts! The hours of planning, choreographing, webcamming, synchronising and editing. Wow. Just... wow. Respect. I see the video and try to think of how it works also I headache already.


And looking at this MV, I guess what they say is true. That music unites. That it brings people together. And that its power transcends every social barrier put up against us – race, language, gender – everything. It all ceases to matter. Because when people come together with one purpose, great things happen.

Unity is an awesome thing to have.
We could do with a little more of that over here.
