These are lush.
Since Michael Jackson pioneered the music video, we've been obsessed with how music and visuals can co-exist together, complimenting and explaining each other while turning an aural experience into something tangible.
We've also noticed that people can't seem to stop storyboarding their favourite songs; whether it's through lyric posters on Tumblr or artist moodboards, there's a trend for trying to express the visual aesthetic of a song through colours, images and words.
One Twitter account we've come across is @aestheticoncern (... song boards) and it's giving us actual music aesthetic goals. It covers acts like Lana Del Rey and Troye Sivan (so all our faves, basically).
