Baby Snakes & The Electric Co., the indie/alternative solo project of producer and Modern Electric Sound Recorders founder Jeff Saenz, shares “Kintsugi”, an inspiring new single off his upcoming debut album, Ouroboros, out October 23 via Spaceflight Records. Named after the Japanese practice of restoring broken objects with gold lacquer, this track embraces imperfections, breakage, and the possibility of renewal and newfound beauty.
The accompanying music video offers a poetic, cinematic interpretation of Kintsugi. Gathering the “shards” of his life — his scars, his home, his family, his future — Saenz stands strong, holding everything together like the valuable, gold lacquer of a repurposed bowl. It was directed by longtime friend and collaborator Max Poscente of About You, whose debut album The Lighthouse, The Storm was produced by Saenz and recorded in Modern Electric Sound Recorders.
