Gark Mavigan crafts a solid one with his latest single/video titled “Anachronism”. Backed by a simple, solemn piano groove, head nodding drums and a phat bassline, Gark brings the verbal arsenal from start to finish with lyrics like.

“Flames in they throats like a heated exchange/ didn’t know that they were dragons

who spoke fly rhymes and wrote diatribes in cyanide and spit mixed with everlasting grit…”

The video, directed by Oakland-based production company Kitsune Visual, is shot in Gark’s Outer Mission neighborhood of SF. Gark strolls through the streets, posts on his porch, and even spits while standing on a laundromat cart. Speaking on his new video, Gark said: “‘Anachronism’ is about feeling out of place but staying true to your roots on some Simba-looking-at-his-reflection-in-the-water ish. The video itself allows me to shine some light on the SF Hip-Hop scene and, of course, fulfill my lifelong dream of rapping on top of a laundromat cart.”

“Anachronism” comes after Gark’s last single, “Tuck In The Kids,” which was the follow-up to RAMENdon, his highly acclaimed Top Ramen-themed EP that’s been well supported. Currently, Gark’s putting the finished touches on his forthcoming LP, Good Choices, due for release in 2017…stay tuned!
