MGMT - "Little Dark Age" (Live) | NEO MAGAZIN ROYALE in Concert - ZDFneo

Eine faszinierende Spezies, nur selten zeigen sie sich in der Öffentlichkeit, lange Zeit hat sie niemand mehr in der TV-Landschaft gesichtet und beinahe wurden sie sogar für vom Aussterben bedroht erklärt. Doch wir haben es geschafft, exklusiv für euch die neuesten Beweisaufnahmen hier bei uns im Studio König machen zu können - live und in Farbe, reichlich Farbe: MGMT leben! Ihrer neue Single: "Little Dark Age" aus dem gleichnamigen Album.
Das Neo Magazin Royale - jeden Donnerstag ab 20:15 auf neomagazinroyale.de, um 22:15 Uhr in ZDFneo und freitags sehr spät im ZDF.

For anyone wondering about the show’s aesthetic: It is shot on ARRI cinema cameras, which is rather unusual for a late night show. This creates those nice and warm colours. The light installations make the whole thing look even better!

[@GooseCrack]

24fps and it would practically be a movie with cameras like that

[@almendraman]

Pretty sure we're looking at 24fps

[@CanKoepruelue]

It is Standart PAL with 25fps. We had to follow some Rules of the TV station

[@MtrlDstrbt]

This fucking rocks. You definitely are more knowledgeable than I am on cameras. What hints towards an ARRI, if I might ask? Meaning, what qualities does it offer?

[@theelement6255]

I love it ❤️

How come this one German tv show has more production value and looks better than 99% of English TV?

[@MrsTuneOn]

It is, with some 80s synth pop mixed in. Good stuff and takes me back!

[@joshbutts1708]

@@nicknasty14 well goth was invented in the 80s so its only fitting

[@nicknasty14]

@@joshbutts1708 Goth did emerge in the 80s from punk and post punk music in the 70s. Ive always said so many bands emerged from the sex pistols. Joy division, siouxsie, billy idol, specimen, adam ant etc. They all went to see that first show of the Pistols back in the 70s and after that they all went the next day and started up bands. It was a very important and interesting time for music. You even had the whole new romantic scene going on back then too. I was fortunate enough to grow up in the mid 80s as a teen goth and witness alot of cool shit first hand. It was such a great time for music! Very creative and alive! Its nice to see a band like MGMT carry the torch and do it some justice! Many bands have failed, and cannot compete with that era of music. Shine 2009 is another good band from recent. They are more electronic, but have a very good late 80s sound. Check out there first album, pretty good stuff.

I looked this up and yes ! You are correct very good one too

[@Akira-kd6us]

@@SirPeewee Yeah, the Corona Capital live has an overall better sound to it. The vocals in this NMR live sounds very dry. Before fanboys stab me with their pitchforks: It sounds dry because it doesn't have the 50ms+ of delay added to the vocals that causes a natural chorus effect, this is the thing that gives the vocals the oomph in the track.

[@Elpugo714]

They should record a whole concert like this. That production with the sounds and the lights looks awesome

Breathing in the dark Lying on its side The ruins of the day Painted with a scar And the more I straighten out The less it wants to try The feelings start to rot One wink at a time Oh Forgiving who you are For what you stand to gain Just know that if you hide It doesn't go away When you get out of bed Don't end up stranded Horrified with each stone On the stage My little dark age Picking through the cards Knowing what's nearby The carvings on the face Say they find it hard And the engine's failed again All limits of disguise The humor's not the same Coming from denial Oh I grieve in stereo The stereo sounds strange I know that if you hide It doesn't go away If you get out of bed And find me standing all alone Open-eyed Burn the page My little dark age I grieve in stereo The stereo sounds strange You know that if it hides It doesn't go away If I get out of bed You'll see me standing all alone Horrified On the stage My little dark age Giddy with delight Seeing what's to come The image of the dead Dead ends in my mind Policemen swear to god Love's seeping from the guns I know my friends and I Would probably turn and run If you get out of bed Come find us heading for the bridge Bring a stone All the rage My little dark age I grieve in stereo The stereo sounds strange I know that if you hide It doesn't go away If you get out of bed And find me standing all alone Open-eyed Burn the page My little dark age All alone Open-eyed Burn the page My little dark age

I'm actually quite surprised Jan Böhmermann had MGMT. I knew they play good music on his late night show, but I didn't know they do it with international music aswell, also it's so special that I thought it might be too special for TV - but it's still neo magazin royale, so it makes sense. Also am I the only person who thought the vocals weren't exactly on point?
