“Youtube Killed The Video Star” - Armand Amos

Hailing from Detroit, Armand Amos’ new album, Youtube Killed the Video Star, is a sparkling, tongue-in-cheek, synth-laced trip through everything that’s good, bad, and beautifully absurd about living in the age of the algorithm. It’s Owl City meets Black Mirror, with the nostalgic bounce of The Cars and the club-friendly sheen of David Guetta, but filtered through Amos’ singular lens — one eye on the dance floor, the other on your WiFi signal strength.
