Amazing animated sequences depict skyscrapers that seem to be imploding and collapsing under their own weight, as the video’s protagonists suffer thru the throes of their narrow, post-industrial existence. While “Function” strikes a panicked tone with sirens, grimey dancehall, and Manga’s harried insistence that he’s “just tryin’ to function”, “Void” balances the short film’s soundtrack with more ambient space, a syncopated, dub step groove, and chilly vocals from Liz Harris of Grouper... liveeyetv.org/blog/2014/09/29/watch-the-bug-function-void/
