“Between the Channels” by J Fernandez

J Fernandez released his debut LP, Many Levels of Laughter, this summer via Joyful Noise Recordings. A hypnotic, self-recorded album that mixes elements of psych, bedroom-pop, and early electronic music, it’s warm and inviting, but with plenty of experimental twists and turns. Over the record’s nine tracks, J invites listeners into his strange universe, drawing influence from a diverse mix of artists ranging from Terry Riley and Kraftwerk to Can and Yo La Tengo.

Today, J shares a cinematic new video for album track “Between The Channels.” Its slowed-down pace and surreal scenes give the video the same dream-like, psych-tinged quality found on Many Levels of Laughter.
