"Trass" music video by Patrick K.-H. / bestbefore – Andreas Karaoulanis (animation) and Michael J. Schumacher / diNMachine (music), 2018.
Trass takes a motif from “Camptown Races” (Stephen Foster, 1850) and expands on it in a contrapuntal texture. The piece is scored for mixed ensemble; in this recording synthesizers were used instead, with live drums. The video adds its own layers of textural complexity and depth perspective, commenting humorously on the frenetic energy of the music.
