'New Kid', from the critically acclaimed album 'Human Error', is released by Konkurrent/My First Sonny Weissmuller in Benelux countries and by China's largest independent record label Modern Sky in China.
The track is now visualized by Amsterdam based artist Erik Alkema who designed all featured puppet characters. Beautifully shot by camerawoman Lonneke Worm, the puppets take the stage in the form of a procession for an adolescent in his big bubble of unlimited possibilities. We follow a parade traveling through the Dutch polder-land where they meet, and are obstructed by the world.
Erik Alkema is a multi-media artist who showed his autonomous works in different exhibitions. He used to be one of the organizers of the successful hipster-party Multisexi in Studio 80 in Amsterdam, for which he also made the video-visuals and created puppet-performances. His first documentary film will be premiering in January 2011.
Amsterdam based band Monokino brings together the artistic visions of George van Wetering, song writer, lead vocals, guitar; Yu Jin (former member of 'Cobra', first all-women rock band in Beijing) on keyboard and synthesizer, and electronic drummer Wouter de Buck. Monokino is touring extensively across China, Holland and the USA.
