Rebels Of The Neon God (Tsai Ming-Liang, 1992) X “ROYGBIV” (Boards of Canada, 1998)

A youth-in-revolt classic set in Taipei in the early 90’s set to one of the all-time great Boards of Canada tracks. Petty crimes, urban decay, Street Fighter 2, and teen angst all play their parts in this debut film of director Tsai Ming-Liang. Also: the seminal BoC album this track comes from, Music Has The Right To Children, turned 25 this year!

Light Through Glass: Rebels of the Neon God

Rain splatters against the phone booth glass, drops falling like the embers of fireworks spiraling in the distance. Their trails are lit by an indistinct whirl of city lights, perhaps cars or fluorescent signs, made obscure and thus somehow entrancing, their uncertainty of form promising riches and wonders. The beads of water are like liquid jewels, a beautiful contrast against the soot-streaked…
