"Another maverick reinventor of film procedure, Leigh arrives at his scripts by hiring actors capable of improvising behavior for the characters Leigh conceives, and then he compiles and hones the script from weeks of their recorded improvisations. The characters as filmed are always convincing and multidimensional in the way of real life, something rare in fiction movies. Usually Leigh’s films are ultimately optimistic or at least life-affirming, but Naked is an exception. It’s a study of a brilliant, manipulative, domineering, womanizing, articulate, suicidally provocative, near-Satanic young man, who is finally sympathetic, with a worldview that can’t be dismissed, and who is doomed. That’s the way I remember it, anyway."

CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated Believe by Mitch King in Music

Jul 11, 2019

Of course there are first impressions that speak to Dave Matthews, but I also hear the influence of Bon Iver, certainly on how the vocals are mixed and with that classic heartbeat pulse. Mitch King achieves a real clarity of purpose with his song Believe:

“You will taste it if you can be patient
The more you believe, the more you create it”
— Mitch King

Mitch King lives his life on the road, and has created an impressive career on the back of relentless touring and an irrepressible love for life. We think that comes through loud and clear with this ode to achieving personal spirituality through shared experience.

Namaste.
