IT LIVES...
The highly-anticipated 'Esther's' video has finally hit the internet.
Up-and-coming Belgian director Charles De Meyer (aka Chuck Eklectric) first met Amon Tobin in 2007, just after the release of his Foley Room album, and proposed his idea for a short film for the song. Think invasion of the robots with a romantic twist. Amon was impressed and came on board to work on the sound design. The result is absolutely stunning.
We are very excited to announce that, over the course of the next few days, we will be re-launching the Amontobin.com web store. The shop will carry his entire digital back catalogue of music released on Ninja Tune, Two Fingers material released on Big Dada, independent projects such as the Taxidermia soundtrack, as well as special compositions such as these.

Perhaps you remember a little album called Foley Room released in 2007 to tremendous critical and fan acclaim?
Whilst listening to 'Esther's', one aspiring director bore witness to a strange film unfolding in his mind's eye. Luckily, he decided share his vision with us all.
This summer Amontobin.com will premiere Charles De Meyer AKA Chuck Eklectric's stunning visual take on the song. Details for the launch coming soon.
On his 2007 Foley Room album, Amon collaborated with the critically-acclaimed, Grammy Award-winning US string quartet gods Kronos Quartet. This 'meeting of the minds' was but one manifestation of their mutual respect and admiration for each other's work. In fact, Kronos Quartet has covered pieces by Amon Tobin in their live shows for years.
