El Ray & the Kodachrome Wipeout! Check out our latest music video from the Chasing Ray album. Track is Twang's Am. Shot on the last remaining double-8 kodachrome reels before Kodak killed off the worlds first color film. Kodachrome, a film so legendary that Paul Simon wrote a song about it, and so important that the U.S. State Parks and Services named a Park after it. And for good reason. Not alone was it one of the very first films to capture color in 1935, it was also the only one of its kind, a color film that has the grain structure of a black and white film. This video is a visual tribute to a film stock that changed the scene.
Done by Alex Archimbaud.

Neat backstory! Mega-cool video. And, you've just amp'd up the anticipation even more for the Convention weekend in August. Can't hardly wait!
Time to go spin up the album (again!)

Cool guys. Cheers. There may be a version 2 of this video where Alex Archimbaud will use some of the digi-footage, he also took that day.
August is getting pretty close!

I'm gonna get way disappointed if I don't get a chance to meet you in August, Brian. If it wasn't for you and all your hard work, all-things-surf wouldn't be as cool as this site has contributed to since 2006!

Excellent video and cool history. Times change, and not all "progress" is good. At least you guys were able to send off the medium in style!
See you in August
