Beastie Boys – Live @ Glasgow ’99

Youtube User coxe68 hat grade drei Liveshows hochgeladen. Erstmal DJ Tomcraft auf der Mayday 2003 in Polen, dann ein Videoschnitt der Mayday 1994. Und dann noch den Livegig der Beasties in Glasgow 1999, letzteres leider embedding disabled by request, fuckers. Dennoch, wegen Autostartblödsinn erst nach dem Klick.

This Time this time, I’m loosing my mind. So whatcha want? Have Fun!

End of Line: Original Tron Re-Soundtrack’d



(Vimeo Direkttron, Soundclout Direktbit)

Mogi Grumbles, House-Produzenten aus Michigan, haben einen neuen Soundtrack für Tron am Start und haben dazu ein schickes, einstündiges Video zusammengeschnitten.

End of Line is an original re-score of the movie Tron (1981), created by French/Disco House antihero Mogi Grumbles. End of Line is a 100% independent composition that lives wholly outside the original film score by Wendy Carlos and Annemarie Franklin.

The result of a live collaboration between Alex Taam and video editor Christian Silbereis, a re-cut of the film featuring the Mogi Grumbles re-score has been released as a companion piece for your viewing pleasure. End of Line is being released digitally as a name-your-price offering, with 100% of the proceeds going directly to the artist.

Lieutenant Ilia gets her Head shaved


(Youtube Direktstartrek, via Dangerous Minds)

Persis Khambatta aka Lieutenant Ilia aus dem ersten Star Trek-Film bekommt für ihre Rolle den Kopf rasiert. Offensichtlich mag sie das nicht so richtig gerne, dafür hatte sie ja dann aber ‘nen richtig guten Draht zu Voyager. Von Wikipedia: „Khambatta was originally cast in the role when The Motion Picture was a television pilot. She took the role even after Roddenberry warned her that she would have to shave her head completely for filming“.

Marko Djurdjevics Comic-Cover

Paper Record Player in a Wedding Invitation


(Vimeo Direktrecord, via cpluv)

Tolle Hochzeitseinladung von Kelli Anderson, die darin einen Plattenspieler aus Papier eingebaut hat, der den selbstgeschriebenen Song des Pärchens spielt.

In the booklet-style invitation, a bit of paper-folding amplifies the sound of a sewing needle moving along the grooves of a flexidisc record. The hand-spun record yields a garbled, but scrutable listening of an original song by the couple. It requires a bit of tinkering and folding —effectively championing the inner science-nerd kid in the recipient. The whole thing serves as an interactive packaging for the song—which can be experienced on the paper record player, unscrewed + set on a regular turntable, or enjoyed online (for the non-nerds and/or audiophiles out there.)

Tolle Sk8-Decks von Chris Parks mit mexikanischen Wrestlern beim letzten Abendmal: The Last Fiesta. Sein ganzes Portfolio ist sowieso unbedingt sehenswert. (via Dangerous Minds)
