Charlie White directed this music video for “Lights” by Interpol. To be honest, the first time I watched I was annoyed by the music, I even switched off the sound. But it grew on me after a few times.

Free Fall is a video made by the freedivers Guillaume Néry and Julie Gautier. You can see Guillaume doing a base jump into Dean’s Blue Hole. They say it’s a fictional and artistic project, they wanted to show another approach to freediving videos. Even Julie, who filmed everything with a Canon 5D Mark II, hold her breath the whole time. The result is awesome.

Alexis Malbert a.k.a. TapeTronic knows how to handle oldskool audio cassettes. The first video shows you his different scratch cassettes, the second one some weird customised tapes and tapedecks.

I’m just back from the last Moderat concert ever (we’ll see about that). Moderat is/was the band project of Modeselektor and Apparat. The opening track, A new Error, of their first and last album is THE track of 2009.

Everyone knows the Techno Viking video, right? It’s that weird guy dancing in the street during the Berlin Fuck Parade in 2000. But what I didn’t know it that the original title is actually Kneecam No 1 and that it was filmed by Matthias Fritsch. He did some research on his video and found out that it was viewed over 20,000,000 times and made a small exhibition about it: The Techno Viking Archive.
Remember: “The Techno Viking doesn’t dance to the music, but the music dances to the Techno Viking”.

Gijs Gieskens is a Dutch VJ and musician who likes to make his own tools, both on the hardware and the software side. Browser Jockey is one of his projects, he wrote a set of browser scripts which he uses to generate visuals to live music. Gijs developed another tool to use with Browser Jockey: the Beat Converter. This is a little piece of hardware which translates live mucis to key presses and trigger the Browser Jockey scripts. This video explains it all.

This is the music video for Toive by Vladislav Delay. It was directed by Carolina Melis and Lorenzo Sportiello, crackmilk produced it. I must admit that the music is a little strange, but the video shots are very lush.
