“The Downeaster ‘Alexa'”
Layer Zero
When you can take one of Billy Joel’s songs and make it even better, you have really done something amazing. That has what has happened in this song, “The Downeaster ‘Alexa’“. The NYC-based electro-rocker with a passion for dark synth-tronics, werewolves and being in control of your own destiny, theWhen, just released his new music video in which he brings about all the drama of the song in a beautifully, dark way. The video certainly helps with such a clarity you can hear the ocean, feel the wind, smell the tension in the air. This is an amazing rendition of a classic song, filling it with the tension and drama of a storm about to happen, whether climatically or individually.
