Video: Mayer Hawthorne – Behind The Scenes of “The Walk”
October 25th, 2011
Earlier this month, we saw Mayer Hawthorne blow out his lover's brains in his video for "The Walk." But of course, he didn't really do that, did he? Go behind the scenes and see how he pulled it off for the camera. He also talks a bit about the song and even hugs his ex boo.

California-based producer Nick Waterhouse may be a newcomer but he's certainly already creating a space for himself within the realm of vintage soul.
His dedication to preserving a vintage sound is impressive when you consider his technique, which includes "entirely vintage analog equipment, open-reel tape machines, lacquer cutting machines, and even hand letter-pressed labels."
If you dig Mark Ronson or Mayer Hawthorne, you need to pay attention to this dude.
Also, grab his EP, Is That Clear, that dropped a couple months ago and keep a lookout for a full album out in 2012!
