Plini deliver music video for new single "Still Life" ft Animals As Leader's Tosin Abasi

Official press release:
Plini has released a new single and video, "Still Life," featuring Tosin Abasi from Animals As Leaders. It is the second single to be released by the talented Australian guitarist and songwriter from his brand new EP Mirage which is due out on 1st December.
Plini shared the following:
It's hard to know where to start with this song - it contains some of my favourite abstract drumming by Chris Allison, amazing bass playing and some very unsettling mixing by Simon Grove, and is the first song I've shared from the EP featuring live string arrangements by my longtime friend AJ Minette. It's also my first recording using an oud. Then there's the video, my usual collaborators Jamie McVicker and Declan Blackall managed to make something that feels, in the best way possible, like more of a weird audio visualiser than a "proper" music video, and Emily Jansz created the perfect set for it. You should have smelled the room after having a raw fish in it all day!
Tosin was one of the main inspirations for me getting into writing guitar-centric music in the first place. His band, Animals As Leaders, took me on some of my first tours around the world and we've since become good friends, so to have him play on one of my songs is something that teenage me would never even have dreamed of. Such a treat!

"Hey guys, should one of us learn how to play the guitar? Naaaaaah, we can just use daddy's money to pay Famous Guitarist"

Sounds like I'm on hold with Sweetwater ___ Underrated comment. I lol'ed. You can totally hear the music dip by 50% volume and then that genero-lady's voice say "Here at Sweetwater, you having a good customer experience is our number one priority. Please continue to hold for a representative..."
The Sweetwater comment is legit. This is music for dudes who spend 19 hours a day practicing guitar and watching guitar-related live streams of guys similar to themselves. Absolutely nothing wrong with this, but c'mon. Sometimes you gotta go outside and hit on chicks and play an actual friggin' riff.
