Tulipomania: On the Outside [Spinello remix]

Dramatic, dark and dubby,Tulipomania: On the Outside [Spinello Remix], features vintage objects animated frame by frame as torn paper and tape collages on thousands of individual sheets of black
paper. Celebrating a quaint naiveté, the animation was inspired by the addition of a space-age era broadcast layered into the remix by Shane Woolman, aka Spinello. Woolman, a London-based producer/remixer who hosts shows on NTS Radio, Resonance FM and New New World. He works at The Wire magazine and also DJs as part of The Wire Soundsystem.

Director Biography - Cheryl Gelover, Tom Murray

Tulipomania has alternately been categorized as ‘cult synth punks’, ‘glam-leaning’, ‘postpunk’, ‘art-rock’, and ‘muscular chamber pop’.

While band members Tom Murray (lead vocals, bass,
drums) and Cheryl Gelover (synthesizer, background vocals) enjoy deciphering efforts to categorize their sound, they decline to offer a specific label of their own.

The two first met in Art school, and found themselves collaborating on projects for Experimental Film and Animation classes–Tulipomania grew along with those experiences.
Described as “artistic and inventive” and “gorgeous,” music videos created by Tulipomania have been featured in film festivals worldwide, including the London Short Film Festival (England), Leeds International Film Festival (England), Aesthetica Short Film Festival (York, England), Encounters (Bristol,England), Zubroffka (Poland), and StopTrik (Croatia, Poland).

A complete list of festival screenings is available on request.

Last November, the duo contributed over an hour of collage and mixed media animation projected over seven screens in support of Pixies 30th anniversary performances of the band’s first releases, Come on Pilgrim/Surfer Rosa, working in collaboration with the acclaimed graphic artist Vaughan Oliver.

Tulipomania are currently at work on a new release of their own and supporting animated music videos.
