Video by Mel Stone (melstone.ca) About the footage: "Having grown up in Cape Breton, I have a deep love for our stunning island. A few years ago my cousin uncovered reels of 8mm shot by her father, AC Frost, of Cape Breton in the late 1950s. It was the first time I saw our island in moving colour from that time. When I heard “Cremation (Ashes to Ashes)" for the first time, my mind went straight to the brooding seas captured on these reels. I believe AC would have been moved by the music Villages are making, timelessly drawn from the island like cool water being drawn up from the deepest well." - Mel Stone
