Calvin Johnson's Selector Dub Narcotic foot faults in "Bounce it Out" video

selector-dub-narcotic-bounce-it-out

Calvin Johnson’s dance-friendly Selector Dub Narcotic project has a new 7″ on the way due out digitally on May 25 and June 25 on vinyl via K Recs. The a-side is “Bounce it Out (Bounce it on Out),” a hands-in-the-air party anthem as only Calvin could create (with help from Lord Nock). Playing off the title, the video (directed by Red Williamson) bounces onto the tennis court where Calvin plays a singles match against himself. Says Calvin:

Every video director wants to put me in a bikini and a Masrati. Usually I’m cool with it but for “Bounce It out (Bounce It on out)” Red Williamson (Newspin Films) and I decided to show my sensitive side. We went with a more intellectual approach to modern suburban life, skirting the dark underbelly with only brief flashes of the dismal insights lurking beneath.

The video premieres in this post and you can watch it below.
