When a friend showed me this video for the first time, I asked him, “How would you go about making a video like this? How would you describe this vision to a director?” It turns out that you don’t. Carl Burgess was given complete freedom in creating this video for Ratatat, and the finished product was made entirely from stock footage. Here’s a full article on the production: http://www.fastcodesign.com/1662128/carl-burgess-director-of-the-years-creepiest-coolest-music-video

And while the above is my favorite, I think it would be dishonest of me to post a Ratatat video for a community like the DPV without  tossing in at least one more. I’d say Falcon Jab is probably the most traditionally psychedelic of their videos–that I’ve seen, anyway–but there’s just something all too human in the video for Drugs that made me choose it for my headline this Saturday.

C2C Brings the Beat

6 Dec

It’s hard not to like these guys. If you can dig a bit of hip-hop, their beats are crazy smooth. If you’re an idealist about journeys into the music industry, the group is formed from four high school friends who found a passion in digging through old records and working turntables; now they’re the reigning champions at international competitions for the genre. And if by some chance you happen to have an interest psychedelic videos, theirs are off the hook. Each a very different style, each a joy to watch. They come from France, and so for now they’re bigger in Europe than in the US, but this kind of quality is bound to catch on.
