Bristol band Massive Attack is an England's most prominent electronic music group, the trip hop patriarchs that for already three decades have been staying best musicians in the genre. “Butterfly Caught” from their fourth album 100th Window released in 2003 has the official video rather depressive, however this fan clip where the song serves as the soundtrack to the Kafka based French animated film “Le Processus” by Philippe Grammaticopoulos and Xavier L'Hermuzière, looks even sharper due to its highly disturbing atmosphere.

If there's anything you should know of the Chicago indie band The Sea and Cake, that's what they're former members of The Cocktails, Shrimp Boat and Tortoise. Such animalistic gang must play nothing but a cool music, so is their album The Moonlight Butterfly. Two songs, “Lyric” and “The Moonlight Butterfly” could definitely make any naturalist feel totally happy, especially when added with the sea, cake and those moonlight butterflies. What we sadly have not today, but there's always someday.
