Quirky pop oddball Ariel Pink recently teamed up with Violens member Jorge Elbrecht for a collaborative 7-inch, and now the A-side "Hang on to Life" has gotten its own music video.

The song is a dreamy, yacht-flavoured pop number, and the accompanying video is appropriately bleary. We see Elbrech and Pink singing while a dog shakes off in ultra slow motion and the entire thing is overlaid with colourful lights and soft focus haze.

Elbrecht is currently a touring member of Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti. This single is the latest in his series of collaborative 7-inches for Mexican Summer; next up is a single with Chairlift's Caroline Polachek.
