A snow ice princess, a knight on a horse, woodland nymphs, and a magic sword. These are just a couple of things you’ll see in Bran Van 3000’s music video for “Grace (love on the block). The Montreal electronic collective explain on their website how they got the images for the video from a classic Russian film titled “Ruslan and Ludmila” by Russian filmaker Aleksandr Ptushko released in 1974! Whoa! To quote Bran Van 3000…
“Based on a poem by the great Alexander Pouchkine, the film’s epic fairy tale tells the story of a young bride kidnapped by a villainous dwarf.”
Kinda crazy. Kinda awesome. “Grace (love on the block)” is the first single off of Bran Van 3000’s fourth record The Garden.
