CAT TEMPER - Happy Tails

Written by Vero Faye Kitsuné

Cat Temper opens a portal to a new feline dimension and scurries into iconic videos of the 1980s with his most excellent, brand new visuals for Happy Tails - the first single from his upcoming full-length record, Nineteen Eighty-Fur (March 2024).

Directed and animated by Jim Ether, Happy Tails is a frisky and delightful visual cat feast loaded with Easter eggs (and fuzzy mice). All rendered in 3D CGI, the video features Cat Temper and visual odes to A-Ha, Michael Jackson, Eurythmics, Talking Heads, Devo, A Flock of Seagulls, and more. They definitely pulled all the stoppers for this one! Also check out the accompanying pastel-hued synth pop maxi-single release filled with bonus non-album tracks with art by Foreigner.

Cat Temper is the highly prolific artistic project of Boston-based synth artist-producer, Mike Langlie. Known for his cheeky and endearingly irreverent feline twists on music legends, with LPs filled with a robust range of cat-themed song titles matching the quirk and mood of each track, Cat Temper has quickly grown into a synth icon and scene favorite.
