What’s going on here then? An epigraph from Yukio Mishima…an Air-like song…a pair of boys stripping down to their underwear to play bondage games…gorgeous dancers in white briefs performing amid statuary… Yes, it gets my vote.
Dënver are from Chile, and the song is Los Bikers from their 2010 album Música, Gramática, Gimnasia. I’d tell you who directed the video but they’re not very clear about that themselves. There’s more video and music on the inevitable Dënver Myspace page. Via Homotography.

Hmm…Momentarily speechless. I can see why you like this, Mr. Coulthart! And fortunately the visuals distract one from the music, which sounds like watered-down Air. Thank goodness for dancing boys in tighty-whities!
Yes, it’s rather calculated to appeal to a certain audience, isn’t it? Very good of them to go to so much trouble. The music isn’t too bad. Not all the songs are Air-ish, they seem to vary things.
