Lamp & gr8080's 2012 music video digest (rolling)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WcRXJ4piHg&hd=1

this video.

ust because M.I.A. is “brown” doesn’t mean she gets to objectify non-Western cultures. Against the reality of North Africa and the Middle East today, the thrill of high-speed desert racing only gets her so far.

Don't let her "brown" skin fool you.

don't let the white masks fool you

still need to hear a good remix of that

shout out to the troll 2 kid in the death set video.

(forks, it looks like that free zebra katz ep has a bunch of remixes. maybe they're not good though.)

i will engage at some point no doubt

oh hey, just came across a good one by an acquaintance of mine: http://soundcloud.com/madden-2/1mm-r3-d-zebra-katz-m-d-n3

yeah, this improves it

yay wow love that death set video. thx 2 gr80 & whiney whines.

Odd Future - Oldie
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzi24Nssiow

i love this so much: its basically the total opposite of centaurs and old man comedy makeup and totally endears them to me all over again. lol i am old but i can't help but feel all "THAT's how you be goofy teenagers!!" i feel like the concept its so simple that it should be so played out but it feel like no one's done something like this before?

also i love how the whole thing is a hijacked terry richardson shoot

Dam man funny vid and their just doing their thing havin fun

Bear in Heaven - The Reflection of You

sort of NSFWy:

Diplo - "Express Yourself" (ft. Nicky Da B)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eF1lU-CrQfc

that BIH one is a tough watch

i know no one responded to it for some reason but the chief keef is so dope to me as a video, its basically the grimes video minus the female narrator

my favourite thing aboud oldie is how stoked on everyone else's verses earl is

i hate the beat on that bear in heaven song more every time i hear it

its basically the grimes video minus the female narrator

idgi

i think he's referring to the one part of the grimes video with all the shirtless dudes moshing

i'm glad no one took diplo to a second line when he was in new orleans.

sorry, i feel like i'm being negative all over this morning.

well just the general celebration of male revelry & camaraderie in general, celebrations of masculinity & such

there's a similar joyousness to them i think idk

trippy

ha, i always meant to start a thread for me and gbx to post GoPro videos-- that would have been a great crossover

had no idea tim sweeny started a label, either

the other side of that secret circuit 12" is doooooooope

video not as interesting though but you should check it out to hear the track http://youtu.be/4SRZ-1hv1ms

first BIS release was a pretty chill French house record called Paradis

Rye Rye - Boom Boom

The Alchemist + Oh No (Gangrene) - Vodka & Ayahuasca
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zA-QpkVpuAQ

Pretty fun lo-budget video.

diplo video is so terrible

what makes it terrible? i kinda like it.

gangrene video is great. weird action bronson cameo.

diplo's whole inept musical anthropology thing skeezes me out, especially in this context. in a nutshell, the post-katrina carpetbagging hipster types have seized on "sissy bounce" as a thing to get really into and be really excited about, which is cool, except that regular bounce music, which is way way way more popular, is generally ignored by the (almost entirely white) hipster bounce brigade. the way it seems to me is that these people (who are certainly the people that hipped diplo to the whole thing) can only engage with this culture when it is to a large extent (and this is a generalization but it would take forever to fully go into it) emasculated.

zzzzzzzzz

fair enough though!

no, but those are all really great arguments, except that the way the video itself comes of as tough and menacing kind of makes them irrelevant?

imo

well said, adam

i don't think it tries to come off as especially tough or menacing. also it has diplo in it.

well it's people dancing and then every once in a while diplo pops up to menace people's sense of ownership over their own cultural production?

zzzzzzz

like hey important part of disenfranchised culture's self-expression, you get to be another diplo novelty track! which i guess is the Problem with World Music so it's weird to see it go down in NO.

Into this song and vid both

xp Mikhael Paskalev, "I Spy"

love that video, johnny

good stuff! i like the song too and i've never heard of that dude

He's from Norway and has an album coming later this year, but that's all I know. In one of his other youtubes, he's accompanied by Billie Van (who I just stumbled across a few weeks ago, so that's good too).

haha otm

Lamp have you heard the Floating Points album?

no! i am assuming i should?

hi lamp what should i do in Toronto tonight?

what sort of stuff are you looking to do?

dancing?

its either completely dead or packed but theres a queer r&b nite at the steady on bloor near dufferin that is really good if its happening. idk the city is kindof a no fun zone lately there are lots of great bars but theres not much dancing. at least not at places that i would ever want to go. theres probably something rap-ish at the shop at parts & labour thats usually kinda fun.

no! i am assuming i should?

not positive it's your thing but it's one of my favorites of the year & i'd be curious what you thought of it
