Katie Malua " The Flood"

I'm still trying to figure some parts of this one out.

Plan B "She Said"

Everything is made in China "Sleepwalking"

Everything is made in China is a band out of Russia and are the focus of this video. I couldn't fin any info on the director of this video, I'm going to guess they did it themselves.

Miles Kurosky "Dog in the Burning Building"

This low budget video for Miles Kurosky reminds me of the type of thing that would be on Liquid Television back in the day. Fran Krause and Will Krause are the ones responsible.

Ummm...

Sig Ragga

St. Vincent "Laughing With A Mouth Of Blood"

Patrick Stanton bring us a video featuring Thunderant(Saturday Night Live's Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein) for St. Vincent

Lucy Schwartz "Help Me! Help Me!"

Lucy Schwartz made the costumes, wrote the song, built the stage and had her brother direct this video that is cute on so many levels.

Omnikrom Feat. Coeur de pirate "Dans Tes Reves"

The Checks "Ballroom Baby"

Here's something from downunder. Benjamin Rood throws together a few techniques to bring us an interesting video for Australia's own The Checks

gemini. you're gonna die...twice.

and where will you go when you do? if either heaven or hell are as visually stunning as this video by marco brambilla (you actiony dudes might remember him as director of the manhood-affirming classic demolition man), then i'll take both, please. this video will be featured in elevators at new york's 'the standard' hotel, giving the effect of celestial ascension or subterranean plummet, depending on which floor you're visiting, of course.

Civilization by Marco Brambilla from CRUSH on Vimeo.

i think the only thing cooler to see in a lift would be a journey up and down the inside of the human body, co-narrated by dennis quaid and martin short. or chris rock.

Friends helping friends

The Pierces - New Music - More Music Videos

This is a video that is directed by a very good friend of mine, Moses Venegas, and can be seen on MTV's website because they sure as hell don't play music videos on the channel. It's pretty darn good. He went to Art Center College of Design. Some of you may say... "Wait. Didn't Michael Bay go to Art Center?" Yeah, but so did Tarsem Singh. And that guy is amazing.

THE WHITE MAN IS FUCKING WITH NIGGAS...AGAIN!

Spotted this over at Crunk & Disorderly. The title of the YouTube video suggests that Hammer was "dissed" in front of his son (every black man's nightmare, but only if they're the kind of black man to be hanging out with their kids in the first place), but if you're a trill-ass muhfucka such as myself, it's pretty evident that Hammer is the only real nigga in this clip. Just watch:



Kathy Lee is waaaay outta hat: Hammer's the only dude to successfully clown Michael Jackson, plus he's always looked like his goon hand was strong as shit, jammy pants or not. Show some respect. It seems that after her sweatshop scandal, ol' Kathy read one too many "it takes a village..." African proverbs. Super psyche.

Her Michelle NObama co-host has that tight-lipped "Bitch, please shut your mouth"-smile working, but she's not gangsta enough to correct Kathy herself. I understand. Putting KLG in check might be a priceless viewing experience for us at home, but it would directly result in young brown skin being unemployed. Get your slave wages, ma. I ain't mad.

Hammer's son doesn't really count because he's just a kid and looks like he's kinda marinating in autism. He needs US to be BAWSE for him.

That leave us with the "Too Pop 2Pac". Hammer's response is so effin' classic I can barely breathe. He realizes the offense made against him (this white woman--somewhat of a laughing stock, herself--is trying to crack jokes AND tell him how to raise his son), quickly processes (he's mad as shit, but knows he's a nigga with a car note and if he responds like he really WANTS to, his comeback efforts will end up like that abortion clinic nigga that got merc'd), then puts on that half grin (kinda like the one on NObama's face, but his isn't trying to mask the apparent tension--it's their to keep himself from wearing an Ice Cube scowl). She's lucky Stanley didn't all "funky headhunter" on her ass.

I've always loved Hammer (wish he'd bring back the "MC") and in my heart, I knew he wasn't no mourk-ass buster. This just puts mo' butta on the muffin. 2 Legit For A Bitch.

BREAK.
BREAD.

Really? Awesome!

Empire of the Sun is one of those bands that cause you to question is how serious the take themselves.

So Eastern Block

DJ Trexx is from New Jersey and he makes rave music. John and Karl-Uno Lindren direct music video but don't have a website.

Fun with kids

Here is a video that is equal parts scary and fun Dragonette and it's directed by Wendy Morgan.

I know, I know...

This video is so old. But, Radical song. Radical Video. It's going up. It's like "Hard Day's Night" but with more fighting and blow.

Major Muthereffin' LAZER

So I got the Mad Decent iPhone app, (which is basically to say that I can start a party at any given moment) among the awesome sounds available was a Rastafarian on a Rocket Board with a laser arm. The other 24LostHeroes contributors were confused by the radicality of this... until I found the following video.



I want to make a Major Lazer Comic Book. Mad Decent crew... Diplo, Switch, Low B, call me. Let's make this happen.

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.
