watch: “genesis” – grimes

One of the more heavily anticipated releases of 2012 is Grimes‘ Visions, due out on February 21st on 4AD. Grimes is Montreal-based artist Claire Boucher, who has a dream-pop sound combined with an electro beat that grows on you with each spin. Yours Tru.ly just posted a video of her doing “Genesis” back in May.
