16. Electric Six - Danger! High Voltage - directed by Tom Kuntz and Mike Maguire

May 29th 2008 08:05

This is a crazy little video for a crazy little song - the electric six are an outfit form Detroit and if you listen carefully to the backing vocals it is a crazy sounding Jack White from the Whitestripes (another Detroit outfit) It's a fun clip that involves glowing bras and codpieces.

Enjoy

15. Aphex Twin - Come to Daddy - directed by Chris Cunningham

May 12th 2008 06:17

One of the more chilling videos ever made by Chris Cunningham for electro music artist Aphex Twin. I could tell you all about it but that would ruin the shock. After you watch it you might recognize the concept is a similar to one Spike Jonze used in his feature film debut Being John Malkovich. A truly horrifying experience - enjoy

14. Wax - Southern California - directed by Spike Jonze

May 10th 2008 15:32

Spike Jonze is the most influential music video director of all time and this video is one of the reasons why. Innovation, creativity and brilliance. In this video for the song Southern California by punk rockers Wax - he get a stunt man on fire and films him running to catch a bus. The clip took around 12 seconds to shoot but they did it with a high speed camera so the vision is in super slo mo. There is something mesmerising about watching a man on fire running. At that spped you notice everything, every moment of the man, his environment as well as the dancing of the flames. Apparently they did 11 takes and used the third one - meaning they set a man on fire unnecessarily 8 times!!! That's just how this bizzare ADD director works and the results speak volumes for his creative genius. Please enjoy another one of my favourite all time videos

13. Fatboy Slim - Right Here, Right Now - Directed by Hammer and Tongs

May 7th 2008 07:23

This brilliant clip comes from the creative minds of England's Hammer and Tongs (One half of which is director Garth Jennings of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy fame). The very catchy tune is from electropop legend Fatboy Slim (who does the best music videos around - he's come a long way since he was bass player for the House Martins). This clip tracks human evolution and covers 4 billion years of evolution in 4 minutes - as always Norman maes a cameo as the hamburger seller. Enjoy this great clip!!

12. Lenny Kravitz - Are You Gonna Go My Way - Directed by Mark Romanek

May 5th 2008 05:38

This video is what music videos are all about - with a set which gives a nod to Fellini's Satyricon and a ceiling with the Michaelangelo of lighting rigs Mark Romanek has created an amazing backdrop for what is essentially just a band playing the tune clip. When you add to that his great use of slow motion shots and the amazingly seamless editing that effortlessly jumps around between the band and the audience, between normal speed and the slo mo and makes wonerful use of those Kravitz Dreadlocks flying around as well as that very mean looking girl drummer you get one of the best rock videos ever made.

Kravitz has done his part here too - the song Are You Gonna Go My Way is the quintessential rock song with the killer guitar riff and a thumping beat with more than passing echoes of the best of jimi Hendrix and Led Zepplin

Strap yourself in and feel the G's of this awesome rock music Video

11. Daft Punk - Around the World - directed by Michel Gondry

May 1st 2008 09:12

French electro-artists Daft Punk teamed up with french music video master Michel Gondry for this hypnotic memorable clip for their catchy dance number Around The World. While you might not be aware of it on first viewing the various dancing characters (skeletons, tall guys, swimming girls, mummies and robots) all represent a different line in the music - Watch just the tall guys and listen to the bass or watch just the skeletons and listen to the guitar. It's really quite brilliant on that level alone - but the use of dance, movement, colour and lighting go to make this a truly great clip that you wont forget.
