Robert Proch really does it with this video titled “Virus”. Robert is an animator, painter, graffiti artist and an art student in Poznań, Poland. The video he came up with is simply awesome and exciting. Great tune too, by the Herbaliser. Found on Revok’s blog :)
Dutch hip-hoppers Kern Koppen, De Règâhs and Esku rapping proper props to my favourite city Den Haag (aka s’Gravenhage), Holland. Nice video to it by Mink Pinster, which is part of a documentary “Ja, Dat Is Den Haag“. This music video features some of the most recognizable spots in the Hague that you’ll definately (should) see for yourself if you’re ever coming to visit.
Found this videoclip to a rather odd song (seemingly just about “fuck” and “shit” and some kind of “stacks”) by Reggie Watts. I totally love his afro, and if I ever had a ‘fro and beard like that, I would definately want to rock his hooded outfit from the video as well. Bas ass! Directed by Duncan Skiles and Ben Dickinson, two of the guys behind Waverly Films :)
My homebody Brendan from HypeThemBeats hooked me up with this intense music video of Example’s track “Kickstart” (which was remixed into something dubsteppy by bar9). Example is from Fulham, West London, United Kingdom, as you might be able to tell from the british accent and unproportional violence. The video was directed by Richie Thomassen, who is from Brooklyn NY. Has a happy ending!
Sexiest advertisement of May 2010 award goes to the Super Sexy CPR (YouTube) campaign by canadian Fortnight Lingerie. If only I passed out more often :) I’m só keeping an eye out for the “Super Sexy Abdominal Thrusts” that’s coming June 1st ;)
Prefuse 73 (Myspace) is just mad dope as usual. I brainwashed myself with his albums “Surrounded by Silence”, “One Word Extinguisher” and recently got to chugging down “Extinguished Outtakes”. They’re all so fucking delicious, but this track has the dopest vocal play of them all.
This is probably one of the sickest commercials I’ve ever had the privilege of laying my eyes on. Directed by Alejandro Inarritu, this video features huge names like Wayne Rooney, Didier Drogba, Fabio Cannavaro, Landon Donovan, Cristiano Ronaldo, Kobe Bryant, Roger Federer and ofcourse Homer Simpsons. Nike really does it this time, with a campaign that is completely accurate to their slogan: “Write the Future”.
This is NASA featuring Kool Keith and Tom Waits with the song “Spacious Thoughts” off their new album “The Spirit Of Apollo“. Video reminds me of that Gnarls Barkley one (“Crazy” or something), and this beat and weird grunting is awesome. Good combo if you ask me. Found it on Popwhore :)
Another MC from the many talents Sout Africa produces, underground rapper Ben Sharpa calls it quits. Dope-track to a dope-ass video that compliments the album artwork and the cut up beat beautifully. I’ve included the album cover after the jump, cause it looks pretty awesome :) Pioneer Unit Records! (more…)
Browsing Revok’s blog I stumbled upon this video in the curious tongue of New Zealand, about a cheeky young fella and an elderly chap kickin’ it. Props go out to Tim McLachlan!
Logorama is an epic animated short that uses more than 2500 existing logo’s to construct a landscape complete with car chases, wild animals, explosions and one pretty psyched out Ronald McDonald as a bad guy. This animation itself, sixteen minutes in all it’s glory, was worth an Oscar! Created by the french creative trio H5, who also happened to have made the clip to (one of my favourite) Royksopp track “Remind Me”. Anyway, it’s all on their site, check it out!
Five minutes really worth watching if you’re even vaguely interested in street art. This trailer for Exit Through The Gift Shop has some epic moments and a rrrrreally clever paper dog that stands up on ventilation shafts. Thierry Guetta, you’ll see him in the movie, seems like an interesting character to me, he even has his own Wiki page,but not so much ofcourse as the conceiving artist, Banksy :P Oh, and the video, Prefuse tipped me off about it
Dutch rapper Steen keeping it real with a scent/fragrance/parfume that is true to it’s cause. The commercial is in dutch but you should be able to capture the essence of it if you don’t speak it. Shit is for sale on kankerzooi.com (together with some other really, really weird shit)
One of the first Super Mario videos I actually think is funny (I love the game), so here’s me sharing it with you :) The conveiving artist is Cory Godbey, 26 year old illustrator guy from South Carolina, USA. He’s got a whole blog filled with not only this vid, but also comics and wallpapers, all in tribute to MAR10, or rather, Super Mar10. Check it out! Via DRAWN
This video is phenominally cool. Je vous presenté, Sébastien Tellier avec “Look“! Video was made by Mrzyk & Moriceau. I don’t know who they thát is but their myspace says a 100 year old chick from coconutisland?
Gorillaz’s “Official Youtube Premiere” of the videoclip for Stylo, from their new album (drops March 8th, it’s already on the internet) “Plastic Beach”. I love it! The clip has such a Tarantinoesque feel to it I was immediately reminded of Death Proof. I’ve taken the liberty of including a cool Death Proof poster after the jump. Although Death Proof doesnt have Bruce Willis in it, an actor Tarantino loves to work with, this videoclip does! Track features Mos Def and Bobby Womack. (more…)
Trippy vid from what I presume is a japanese director called Takuya Hosogane, from the what I presume to be the Bonsajo collective. I have a feeling this was generated through Above Flash 4. Trippy music was the responsibility of Cubesato and Meine Meinung (“My Opinion”), just how I like it. Check out the Vimeo page to find out more about this and some more links.
