kuntar the underground aka backyardblast

okay yay---kuntar---know as backyardblast on the experimental youtubeland

has won my heart with his tender electronica videos featuring chickens and pingpong.

how urban outfitters!
as if "santa barbara" weren't statement enough!

or slagsmalsklubben
i guess it's cheerful, relatively
