This is one of the most beautiful videos I’ve seen in a while. I’ve been listening to a ton of ambient music lately, maybe it’s just winter, maybe it’s just me, but when I checked out Hammock’s site, I stumbled upon this new video. It’s a video for “Mono No Aware”, off their new album, “Maybe They Will Sing For Us Tomorrow”. The cinematography is incredible and fits the dreamy song perfectly. Wow.

What a pretty video, it was shot really well. Emo to the max!
Beautiful! Boiling over with gentle energy. I may end up posting the video on my own blog later today.
Found your entry through tag-surfing ‘mono no aware’. Just wrote a haphazard article on the idea, which you may or may not know is a Japanese expression for – and it’s not easy to translate but – ‘the transience of things and a bittersweet sadness at their passing’ (wikipedia).
This video expresses that feeling poignantly. Sigur Ros videos are very similar in style.
