Bowling For Soup and Los Angeles-based duo able machines, aka Tay Côlieé and Linus Dotson, have officially collabed on “Connection,” a cover of Elastica‘s Brit-pop banger. They also released a set of visuals to pair with it, which includes a few Star Trek filming locations.

Bowling For Soup’s Jaret Reddick shares, “I have always loved this song! We used to play it in the van nonstop. One day I was listening to a new able machines song and just thought…my best friend, Bowling For Soup’s producer, Linus of Hollywood is in an electronic band! We should do this ‘Connection’ together! Even the song title is perfect for this collab!  Luckily, Linus and Tay liked the idea and ran with it! I am so stoked for how this turned out…The video is next level!”
