Martin Solveig feat. Dragonette
I was browsing YouTube today when I ran across this music video by French DJ Martin Solveig and fell in love. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but I think my throbbing heart had something to do with the song’s catchy energy, like something I’d throw on a cleaning-the-apartment playlist. Yet, there’s something [...]

Take On Me, Literally!
So, I know that literal version of music videos have been done before. But normally, it’s a mashed-up interpretation of a popular song with widely unknown lyrics (one of my favorites being the misheard lyrics to Pearl Jam). As a welcomed twist on the music parody scene, dustin films re-recorded the song to mimic the [...]

Sam Roberts "Them Kids"
In this video for Sam Roberts latest single “Them Kids”, the isolated environment of a Simms-like suburbia offers a cookie cutter world devoid of fear and poverty. Yet, when you listen to Robert’s lyrics, the message is not nearly as happy go lucky as the colorful visuals depict them to be. Symbolic of the generational [...]

Radiohead "House of Cards"
Created using a camera-free laser imaging system, this new video for Radiohead’s “House of Cards” positions technology as the driving force behind the music. At a symbolic glance, it’s almost seems that Radiohead surrendering to a future where the megaband is pixelated by the collapse of the traditional label structure. Whether they meant to send [...]

Haunting the heart with cold breaths of pain and loss, this video “The Wolves (Act I & II)” by Bon Iver takes you into the dark, mystical forest of reflection. Entangling the weighted words of Iver with the somber mindset of its director who suffered the sudden death of a friend, the two artists created [...]

Ever wonder where Rhett and Link write such funny songs? In this video they hit a Vegas buffet to find some lyrical inspiration.

M. Ward : "Requiem"
An approved fan video for M Ward, the cinematography in this video is as haunting as the song it praises. Also, the use of old man as the victim and the hero is uplifting and clever.

What’s It Gonna Be?
The other night, I was in a heated conversation about how many online comedians are over producing their rap parodies in a way that makes it seem like they are taking the whole thing way too seriously. Don’t get me wrong, their are many artists who dare to be different and their innovation in the [...]

Over the past two weeks, Demetri Martin has starred in not one, but two, newly released rock music videos. The first is an Anderson-esque video for Fountains of Wayne that was released earlier today. Though the Wayne video is not my favorite, the thought of Martin being all sad and alone makes me want to [...]
