Josh Scogin's new project '68 debuts new song, Track Two with two-in-one video

’68 is the new project by former Chariot vocalist Josh Scogin and they are set to release their debut full length LP, In Humor and Sadness on July 8th First we brought you their first song of the album, Track One and today we bring you something special. ’68 is releasing Track Two but you have to enjoy it by playing two videos simultaneously. You may be shaking your head in confusion, but I think it is an awesome and fun idea! What better way than to enjoy new music than with a friend! So call your friend over and pull out your Ipod, Phone, or Laptop and enjoy the fun new track You could also just try and play both here. The two videos for Track Two are here:

This is Video A

This is Video B

Both videos need to be played simultaneously to get the full experience, vocalist Josh Scogin explains: “The hope is that someone will have one computer and invite a friend over that has another computer, they will spend several minutes struggling and laughing at trying to sync up the 2 videos perfectly.”

Directed by the band, the video was created “in hopes that people will enjoy the journey,” says Scogin. The band vows the value is in the experience, which is precisely what their intentions were. “Once they have watched it they’ll think, ‘Well, we might as well grab a bite to eat,'” he states. “Before you know it their friendship has grown ever so slightly. Or who knows, maybe this is the perfect way to break the ice with that special someone that you have been nervous about calling up.”

In many ways, the video pays homage to the Zaireeka LP released by The Flaming Lips in 1997 where all four albums needed to be played simultaneously to be heard the way the band intended. In a modern day landscape where art suffers from the lack of longevity, Scogin offers: “It’s a way to get humans to interact with other humans and for it to become more about the camaraderie rather than just another song that is here today and gone tomorrow.”
