STORY

We were completely stoked when Primavera Sound invited us to take part in one of their My Favourite Music Memoryepisodes — a series where artists share the stories behind their most treasured music moments.
Our episode featured none other than Daniel Kessler, the mind behind Interpol. Getting to picture his memories and translate his words into animation was an absolute treat.
“… it was in the very late 70s…”
“… I remember seeing The Specials on Top Of The Pops. I don’t remember hearing the music, but I remember seeing this band dressed in suits — they looked great…”
“… I kinda wanted to dress like those guys. I admired them…”
That spark of admiration, that moment of discovery — it’s what this short film is all about. Capturing a fleeting childhood memory that somehow shapes who you become later on.
We wanted the piece to feel intimate and nostalgic. Each scene was carefully animated to the voiceover, letting the story breathe and unfold naturally through seamless transitions, just as you’d recall something dear from your past.
Since this was a story born from music, sound design played a huge role. We worked to keep it subtle and atmospheric — more like a hum of nostalgia than a soundtrack. Every beat and pause was guided by Daniel’s words, making the animation feel like it was moving in rhythm with his memories.

IMPACT

This collaboration with Primavera Sound was a small but special one — a project that reminded us why we love doing what we do: bringing stories, feelings, and memories to life through animation. A heartfelt nod to how music shapes who we are.. And, honestly, as music lovers ourselves, it felt extra special to be part of something that celebrates it so beautifully.
