Mr. Daughters Scares Me

Patrick Daughters knows exactly how to make some scary ass shit in the most subtle ways. This Grizzly Bear video is just another example.

This One is a Little Different

This video employs a technique that is rarely used. It uses the music as more of a soundtrack to a short film. The band is barely in the video and the action has almost nothing to do with song directly.Kristoffer Borgli crafted this piece for a band I've never heard of called Donkeyboy.

Fans Are So Awesome

This little gem comes from Ross Ching. Believe it or not this was created by him on his own in about 2 weeks and it isn't an official video or even a commission. Granted his page says he is currently unemployed which gives a lot of free time but it doesn't make it any less awesome. Cheers to him and the DIY/make shit happen ideal.

MIA: M.I.A Visual

Here is a lil something from David OReilly. He created it as a test for M.I.A.'s show as the visual accompaniment but in the end they went with a different look, something a little more like the '80s muiltipattern that she's been known to sport. Personally I think this looks dope and would probably look even better if projected on a huge backdrop. 3D glasses are optional.

These are always fun..

This isn't the first time it's been done but it is still pretty awesome. YouTube has probably millions videos of musical instrument tutorial from which one could use to make an entire song by blending them. Kutiman brings us several mixes via the website Thru You. The above is my favorite but there are several more here.

Heck yeah

Jay-Z on iLike - Get updates inside iTunes

Alright, Santogold. Jay-Z. Brooklyn (we go hard). I love the song. I love the video. Apparently this is going to be on the Biggie Smalls biopic soundtrack.

LP3

I just got the new Ratatat album entitled LP3. It's really good as you would expect from Ratatat. It is a bit more psychedelic and moody than previous ventures, however, it is no less rockin'. Particular gems include Mirando, Falcon Jab, and Bird Priest. And taking a page from AJ's book I give you a music video for Mirando. It is particularly awesome because it is made of scenes from a favorite movie of mine.
