Professor Elemental is a British rapper with a twist. The twist? He’s a steampunk influenced, time-travelling adventurer with a monkey butler. His latest video is out today and for “All In Togther” from the album The Giddy Limit. Directed by Moog Gravett the video was shot at the Wild West Con at Old Tuscon Studios, […]
Nameless World mixes electro rock and Zombillenium monsters
Here’s a good idea. To promote the graphic novel Zombillenium: Gretchen the talented Arthur de Pins created the music video Nameless World. I’m allowed to be jealous anyone who can write and draw their own graphic novel about an amusement park run by monsters and who can then put together an animated music video to […]
Mastodon’s music video full of RPG and LARP
Out of the blue Mastodon’s music video for “High Road” features a geeky kid who stays at home to look after his gran. He’s also a roleplayer with an active imagination and a LARPer. As a metal video expect a couple of real-life twists. Worth a watch, I say.
Hayao Miyazaki helmed music video
http://vimeo.com/48043470 The great Hayao Miyazaki apparently needed a break while working on Princess Mononoke in 1995 after hitting a writer’s block. The solution? Work on a music video for Chage and Aska’s “On Your Mark”. The result is a 7-minute long musical adventure in typical emotional Miyazaki flare. Via io9.
One More Fight
Fans of Maroon 5 will recognise this as a parody of “One More Night”. I’ll put my hands up and admit that I’ve probably said “Just one more fight” to buy myself more time on the computer. However, unlike the guys in this video I’m pretty sure I’ve never said it to my partner – […]
The Star Wars theme played by just one man and his band
I can’t play any musical instruments at all. Nothing. That’s why I’ve every reason to be jealous and impressed by this Swedish street musician. He’s playing a whole band worth of instruments at once. He’s playing Star Wars. One-man bands are pretty rare these days, I think it’s been an age since I’ve seen one […]
They say it couldn’t be done – Tetris on the Launchpad
The Launchpad is an instrument designed to let you trigger samples and control instruments. You can even link them together if you’re hardcore enough. Is it possible to play the Tetris theme on the Launchpad though? YouTuber SoNevable thinks it is.
Talk Yoda to Me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NB-xMPerGzA I tell you what – geeks seem pretty good at taking Jason Derulo’s Talk Dirty and making it their own. In this video Vicki Shae gives as the parody “Talk Yoda to Me” in a track that was released in time for Star Wars Day (May the 4th) this year. Star Wars fans; what […]
Phanto of the Mushroom Kingdom
There’s a lot of geek cred in Gaston Leroux’s The Phantom of the Opera and I don’t mind admitting that I like Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical version. I’m clearly not the only geek who feels this way as Random Encounters have been inspired. After Princess Peach manages to musically destroy much of the Mushroom Kingdom […]
Talk Nerdy To Me
I recognise the Jason Derulo song that Talk Nerdy to Me is a parody of. This is good. You need to recognise the original in order to get maximim enjoyment from this. Equally, if you’re fed up of Derulo’s Talk Dirty then you’ve probably already decided to skip this one.
