Foolish Thinking encapsulates the slightly darker side of our obsession with
technology or at least acts as a warning of where we're heading. Are we all
walking off the edge of a cliff? as
expertly illustrated by the talented Steve Cutts in this
Playfio music video.
Technology with all
so many positives has a clear and ever present dark side - not to mention the
actual dark web. I came across this short animation film "Are You Lost in the World Like Me"
by Steve Cutts, and it really struck a chord and I wanted to combine this with
'Foolish Thinking' from the new album 'Arcadian Resonance'.
A common sight in
the western world is a busy public space adorned with people with eyes firmly
locked down, transfixed to their various devices oblivious to the world around
them. Perhaps the recent Covid Pandemic has allowed everyone to appreciate the natural
world and take time to reflect on our
relationship with consumption, consumerism and cultural obsession with
appearance.
Having investigated
this video more and thinking what a great fit it is for this song, it seems
Moby got there before me (some 4 years before me) and put one of his tracks
over this Moby & The
Void Pacific Choir - Are You Lost In The World Like Me? (Official Video) ah
well, you can decide your favourite! I've got this far now with this one and
not changing the video! Enjoy

Credits:
This track was
originally released in 2019 at 120BPM and with synthetized guitar parts without
decent mastering - since then, the track
has improved tenfold with the introduction of
studio recorded rhythm and lead guitar work from Claude Etienne and
finally re-mixed and mastered to perfection by the upcoming BBC mix and master
engineer Adam Titmuss.
