Our Weekly segment The Weekly Eight returns with the recently released video for “Patterns” by UK-based duo Too Many T’s.
“‘PATTERNS’ demonstrates a more serious edge to the T’s songwriting, focusing on the cycles of human vices and addiction, and the emotional trauma that follows them.”
Too Many T’s say of the exclusive video collaboration with video game artist triff: “It was our ambition to create a dark, abstract world to enhance the deep, raw emotion attached to the song. It has been an amazing opportunity to experiment with a whole new way of creating a video, and with a gifted and passionate artist like triff who works in a very different area of technology. Together, we’ve produced a technologically-sophisticated and world-first video, within the budget constraints of independent artists.”

THE WEEKLY EIGHT INFO
Submission Sundays was a segment we introduced in 2018 to show love to the hundreds of artists and groups that submit new material to us weekly. The segment also gave us a chance to show love to people who weren’t already receiving regular coverage on HipHopCanada, and gave them a chance to connect with our viewers.
Towards the end of the year, we relaunched Submission Sundays as The Weekly Eight, with the same objective to help artists grow.
Each week, we’ll select 8 new submissions and feature them on our homepage for at least a 24 hour period.
To be considered for Submission Sundays segment, please submit your content using our Submission Form. International submissions are welcome.
