Various Chimeras by Shinjuku Zulu (19-song sampler video)

"Various Chimeras" is a 19-track release of cross-genre dance and downtempo pop electronica by Shinjuku Zulu, with 12 contributing vocalists (rappers, toasters, and singers: pop, blues, jazz, choral, chanters, etc.)

The below video sampler features sexy body morphing, unsexy speed reading, speed collages, Dubai, Tuktuyuktuk and Taiwan; lyrics, lies and reviews; falling fashion models and music, music, music. (Oh, and SZ's good friends David Bowie, the Tokyo Gogo! Cheergirl Team, the M83 galaxy, and the Propaganda Catapulter all make cameo appearances.)
