Underground club sensation fights back against social media with beats and hooks! Concept artist Gabriel Leif Bellman has just released his musical album "Scrolling Through The Park." Conceived as a response to the hyper specificity that permeates the lives of anybody who enters into a conversation with a smartphone, the information overload generation has responded favorably to being made fun of.

Tracks include Israeli disco phenomenon "Albert Camus and Cinnamon,” and "Marcus Garvey and Toll Bridges” and have what one reviewer has referred to as: "an insane resemblance to t.s. eliot, if he did dub step, if that makes sense?” "Wiki-Leaks and the Conceptual Past" rounds out the album, available on iTunes and CD Baby now.

Concept artist Gabriel Leif Bellman is perhaps best known for his famous “Who’s calling?” car stereo prank at the Tate Modern Museum in London, but he also helped create the True Life series for MTV, and then ran away with an Irish Circus- directing a feature film about it. His most recent film "The Bellman Equation" won numerous awards, and he is well known for his slam-poetry throughout the United States, notably guest hosting at the legendary and now defunct Blah Blah lounge in Brooklyn. His myspace page appears to link to the sound of a dolphin mating.
