23 Skidoo, 7 Songs is one of those rare gems from the early '80s that captures a very specific moment in the experimental music scene. The whole vibe feels raw and unfiltered, with 8mm and VHS footage lending a gritty texture. There's a charm to the way found footage is woven into this, giving it an almost collage-like quality that resonates with the DIY ethos of the time. It's not just about the music; the atmosphere is thick with nostalgia and avant-garde flair. The editing done at the London College of Printing adds this artistic layer, making it feel like a visual poem. The hand-made color synth work really stands out too, creating a distinctive look that’s both playful and striking, setting it apart from typical music videos of that era.
