Brooklyn duo She Keeps Bees released their newest video today for single “It Is What It Is” off their forthcoming album Eight Houses via Future Gods Records. The downtempo rhythm and minimal arrangement give the track a haunting quality, particularly when the organ enters way down in the mix. Slight electronic manipulations mirror the glitchy video that has both driver (a mother fooling with lipstick) and passenger (presumably the driver’s daughter, dressed in leotard) climb out of their vehicle traveling along the interstate and onto the roof and hood of the car. The concrete nighttime setting adds to the track’s desolation. It is what it is.
