The video is NSFW.
Above is Josh Mond’s short film “1009”. It’s a film about the struggles of forgetting, coping and longing for your ex. At least that’s my interpretation. If you’ve ever lost a boy- or a girlfriend, you can probably relate to the actor in the movie who, every time he close his eyes, sees her. And breathing out, trying to stay calm, or moving on is the one way to heal – even if you’ll live with it for the rest of your life. The film is beautifully soundtracked by Toydrum (ex-UNKLE) and I’m happy to provide you with an MP3 download. And for those of us who haven’t dealt with a broken heart recently, there’s something special, a beauty in loss, underneath the struggle. While the film is somewhat long, its gorgeous camera pans in the beginning is worth the trip alone. But for those of you who have lost that special someone recently, fuck it. Go download some music, you deserve it.

While you’re here, the DL link doesn’t seem to work, and this makes me sad, so very, very sad.
Fixed!
Thank you <3
Aw yiss, more Toydrum.
Well, for me, the best music to listen to after a break-up is hiphop instrumentals, Nujabes-style. Obviously Ta-Ku with his Songs to Break Up To (can’t wait for the sequel), but also dudes like Mndsgn or Knxwledge, who tend to soothe me in every situation
https://open.spotify.com/user/1166789626/playlist/6Thx8Z9hHp6mgYGkLCBuAQ that’s my list
Aimee Mann – Amateur
great song for an amicable but sad breakup
Elvis Costello – I Hope You’re Happy Now
great song for that ex you’re so angry at, like a more literate version of Alanis Morisette’s You Oughta Now
Soft Cell – Tainted Love
my wife played it for four hours straight when she broke up with her boyfriend in college
in no particular order:
The Streets – Too Late
Robyn – Dancing on my own
Sonic Youth – Schizophrenia (not a real break-up song or a particularly sad one but it’s surprisingly good for a cry)
Sharon Van Etten – Your Love is Killing Me
Burial – Untrue
808s & Heartbreak
Emancipator – With Rainy Eyes
God Is An Astronaut – Snowfall
Maybeshewill – Words For Arabella
(as generic as it is…) Runaway – Kanye
Changing of the Seasons – Two Door Cinema Club
King of Wishful Thinking – New Found Glory
Every Taylor Swift song ever made.
Kanye – 808s & Heartbreak.
Mac Miller (as Larry Lovestein) – You EP.
The Submarines – Love Notes/Letter Bombs.
Well, Vulnicura from the goddess is pretty much that all.
