Matt Van Schie - Journey



Matt Van Schie is coming out with some of the smoothest jams I've heard since I became obsessed with Hall & Oates. His band Van She was one of the most promising acts coming out of Australia in the last few years, although their album 'V' was good, it didn't quite live up to the hype that stemmed from their previous self-titled release, which was, for lack of a better term -  F.R.E.S.H. with a capital SSHHHHH.
I'm not gonna give up on them though, if they are still together I think they could have a solid future and they have a heck of a lot of potential and they're great to watch live. 

Now that he's working solo, Matt Van Schie has taken all the best parts of Van She, simmered them on a low heat until they became a dark, syrupy substance you just wanna slowly pour all over that girl you've been dreaming about all week.

He seems to be grabbing clips from old movies and throwing them together for his video's, as I'm sure he'd be on a pretty low budget, but it seems to be working pretty well as they get the mood across and are purdy to look at. 

This song is best enjoyed with company of the opposite sex, in a low-light situation, or alone during an early morning surf check, windows all foggy, sun peeking over the horizon, crispy lines rolling into an uncrowded cove.

Enjoy.
