Awesome, Intriguing, or Mindbending Music Videos

[Flip]

This one is kind of like the one Flip posted (well, in the fact that it has titties in it), the song is old though.

NSFW

[Flip]

This one isnt really mind bending or anything, but i love that its clips of 80's pornos, lol. NSFW.

Sleigh Bells are one of my favorite new bands to come out this year. They are just a girl and a guy who put together some sick ass beats.

[Imakeholesinu]

Hilarious song, kind of crazy video.

[Julius Seeker]

Classic 80's video =)

Sleigh Bells are one of my favorite new bands to come out this year. They are just a girl and a guy who put together some sick ass beats.

Funny, I was expecting something like Lamb (another husband/wife electronica duo). Pretty good beats, but it just seems too simplistic and poppy for my tastes. Do they have anything better? (Also, I would imagine that the copyrights for a lot of that porno probably just lapsed naturally, even if anybody who cares would call them out on it.)

Speaking of Lamb, here's an example, complete with a pretty fucked up video:



Probably in a different direction than the group you put out, but good stuff neither the less. The mixer (the husband, of course) really has a talent for composing these amazing rhythms when he branches out into the one or two solo songs on each album.

Five is a good example. The syncopated beat really gets in your head, and then you think "What the hell time signature is this?! Is this 5/4, hence the title, or is the syncopation just trying to trick me and it's actually 4/4?" (See, I'm doing it right now. I think it's five measures of 5/4, a 6/4, a 5/4, and a 6/4.)

Hilarious song, kind of crazy video.

LOL! The video itself is hilarious! Shooting it must have been great, too. "Aww, shit, we gotta do another take of that." "Are you serious? I just blasted by a fire extinguisher. We have to do that again?"

And a pretty cool song. I need to listen to more of these guys. Always liked the Daft Punk is Playing in My House remix on the Burnout: Revenge soundtrack.

Classic 80's video =)

What... the... fuck... I don't even. I mean the music (and lyrics) are bad enough, but then they have to put in these dance moves that NOBODY in their right mind would do in public.

Also, I figured your sig was something from a Phoenix Wright game, considering it's certainly wouldn't be unusual to have a character that speaks in nothing but rhymes. Instead, it was the opposite with a kind of song title you would never think to see.

This thread, to me, has turned into post awesome music and or videos. So, a single from one of my favorite albums/discoveries of 2010:

[Flip]

Im Am loving this guy at the moment:

[Imakeholesinu]

Ok, so I remember this video but I can't remember the song. I just know it has 4 girls in various homages to like a dexter crime scene. Anyone know the video I'm talking about? It has been driving me nuts all day.

Ah fuck it, here is some streets

Not the best song from Telefon Tel Aviv, but certainly fucked up enough for this thread:

[Imakeholesinu]

Really like this video.

[Julius Seeker]

I thought I posted this one like a year ago, I guess it might have been in another thread.

[Flip]

Its as if this whole video is making fun of Japan, in a very Tim and Eric sort of filming way:

[Imakeholesinu]

[Shrinweck]

Flip posted that months ago :P

Good video, better album.. neat people in general.

[SineSwiper]

It's over 9000. Made with 15 seconds of actual film.

[SineSwiper]

No other videos to post?

[Flip]

No other videos to post?

Yes yes yes, but only if we have resorted to posting videos we just like in general.

[SineSwiper]

Saw this while looking up that Lykke Li director.

[SineSwiper]

Also, some other cool shit by Apparat and team:



This is just so amazing and beautiful to watch...





Not the "official" video, but very cool nevertheless.

[Flip]

This one, almost gets a little bit uncomfortable

All 3 of those are pretty kickass, with the unofficial being the best. I def like your taste in electronica, too.

[bovine]

srsly NSFW



I was lucky enough to have these guys pass through the city on the weekend. I have been a fan for a while. This song is not anything special, and is a bit of a strange one to pick for a video since they have a catalog of great songs. Listen to these guys and beware of the NSFWness in the video and feel free to have knowledge that there is an uncensored version.

[Kupek]

I can't remember if this has been posted here or not.

[Shrinweck]

In another thread so technically no. Always a fun watch.

[SineSwiper]

Good. I'm glad someone here does. I know of hundreds of electronica artists, but Apparat is definitely my favorite one. Him and his friends are German, so it really got me branching out for other sources for this kind of stuff around the world, because electronica like this knows no language.

I already showed this one, and besides Wooden, Limelight is the other huge favorite song of his.

Speaking of favorites, found some from my favorite artist ten years ago, Orbital:

The Girl with the Sun in Her Head
Way Out
I Wish I Had Duck Feet

Sadly, no actual videos there, just the audio with some video mixed. Oh, here's some actual videos from somebody else. Found these guys while looking around for some IDM stuff (one of my fav sub-genres of electronica):


(Can't seem to find Funckarma's Lignite, though. Did find a live version of Nays of Dight, though.)

And moving on to Anamanaguchi's Another Winter, though I like the build up of the one from the actual game. (The guitars and heavy drums don't come in until you actually walk into town. It's like you're busy playing, and suddenly the music just got more kickass.) Helix Nebula from these guys. And an actual video:



Not sure if that's the official videos, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was. Might as well intersect to The Minibosses' SMB2 theme. Awesome work, especially the boss theme there.

Okay, gotta go to work... Shit, that SMB2 riff was fucking made for a guitar...

[Flip]

Heres a cool one if you like watching stuff blow up, although they reuse a lot of the same footage.

[Flip]

I admit, the new episode of Beavis and Butthead brought this video to my attention, but i do think it kicks major ass.

[SineSwiper]

Awesome video. Very Chris Cunningham inspired (like Come to Daddy). I had more to say, but I lost that post.

Anyway, here's my pick:

After the sheer disappointment of Child of Eden, I feel the need to point out Adam Freeland's Fear from Rez - Area 5:



Tetsuya Mizuguchi, this is what we're looking for in a Rez sequel, not your vocal pop trance bullshit. On a positive note, the concept of the Passion level was my favorite in Child of Eden:

[Shrinweck]

Motherfucking wizards never die

[Flip]

One of my favorite Radiohead songs, but never realized how trippy the official video was:

[Julius Seeker]

I like this video, I wish more Arabic type beats were used in pop music. I really like how some 90's bands incorporated them.

[Flip]

8-bit version of Star Guitar, pretty cool.

[Flip]

Of Monsters and Men have become one of my favorite bands of 2012, here is a good video of one of their songs, they are an Icelandic band and the entire albun is great:



In an interview one time, they said they like to weave fairy tales with their songs. This fantasy oriented video certainly can be fact of that!

Here is one they did earlier, which is sort of similar.

[SineSwiper]

Because I need an excuse to post Florence + The Machine songs. Florence's voice is amazing and "The Machine" really knows how to meld percussion, lush melodies, and her voice into powerful stuff. It's like rediscovering Lamb or Hooverphonic.

[SineSwiper]

All natural and technological processes proceed in such a way that the availability of the remaining energy decreases. In all energy exchanges, if no energy enters or leaves an isolated system, the entropy of that system increases. Energy continuously flows from being concentrated, to becoming dispersed, spread out, wasted and useless. New energy cannot be created and high grade energy is being destroyed. An economy based on endless growth is...



Muse's 2nd Law goes all over the place on differing styles, while still maintaining their unique sound. I like the message on this one.

[Julius Seeker]

On a bit of a grunge kick lately:

[Shrinweck]

Speaking of The Knife in the other music thread, Fever Ray is an alias/project by the female half of The Knife and I find her stuff much more accessible to listen to, namely:

and
There's no video for the first one and the fanmade stuff just didn't sit right with me so there's the album cover for you to stare at. It's my favorite song off the album so I couldn't not link it.

Fever Ray also did the opening music to Vikings which is also a good song and single-handedly got me into her:


Basically her entire self-titled album is great - there isn't a song on there that I skip when I listen to the album as a whole. Probably my album of the year. Four years late. Oops. It's a lot less in your face than The Knife and I just like the tone of it more.

[SineSwiper]

Fever Ray also did the opening music to Vikings which is also a good song and single-handedly got me into her:

Dammit! I knew that was her. I didn't see the The Knife in the opening credits, but I should have looked into the singer herself.

Even though the singing is put through an audio blender, it's sort of her signature sound. I also didn't know until recently that she sings both the male and female parts to her songs. It sounded pitch-shifted, but guess my mind thought it was the brother doing those parts.

[Flip]

If you like M83 (Indie Synth Rock), then you will like Morgan Kibby, who is the female vocal. Here is her solo video, the album is coming out soon.

A 60-minute re-edit of Tron with Mogi Grumble's re-score of the soundtrack

Very cool stuff. The album itself has a lot of awesome material, too.

[ManaMan]

"Hold On" by Alabama Shakes. Indie rock mixed with Soul.
