West Seattle music: Local scenery in new Cause & Effect video

Thanks to Nick for sharing the link to this newly released video by the duo Cause and Effect. Not only did we like the song (“Happiness Is Alien”), having a personal fondness for synthpop, but it’s cool to see the West Seattle backdrops that dominate the video (after the first minute or so). The scenery is what won the recommendation from Nick, who says C&E’s Rob Rowe lives here. The song is from their new multisong release “Artificial Construct II,” available July 26th.

    Ha! I spied the garden statuary yard on 4th (?) Ave in Sodo which never seems to actually open!

    It’s been a while since I’ve heard new stuff from C&E.
    WS backgrounds are like whipped cream to the treat.
    Thanks!

    Aliens scare me. Great video though. Had no idea WSB were fans of synthpop That does explain a lot. ;)

    Wow, this takes me back. I was always a huge C&E fan starting back in the early nineties in Sacramento. I haven’t heard anything from them since the early 2000’s and am glad to see somethign new coming out and it sounds just as good as everything else they ever did. And having most of the video shot in West Seattle is just plain cool!

Sorry, comment time is over.
