Yamaha: Silent Sessions – HJ Lim

Most of us listen to our music on the daily commute through a pair of headphones plugged into our smartphone. But that won’t do for chart-topping classical pianist HJ Lim. The South Korean piano virtuoso does things in style with a sleek, ergonomic Yamaha piano. There’s no shuffle mode for her, instead she gets to [...]

Lil Dicky – Ex-Boyfriend (Official Video)

This is American rapper Lil Dicky’s debut song from his mixtape “So Hard” and in it in he frets over his girl’s impossibly perfect ex-boyfriend. The swine. But be careful who’s listening over your shoulder, as the boss might not take too kindly to lines like: “Man this is crazy, I can’t believe this guy [...]

Daft Punk – Get Lucky // George Barnett cover

Daft Punk’s original version of Get Lucky is a pretty sweet summer jam, but this guy’s cover of it is equally fantastic. George Barnett is one talented mofo, playing about one billion instruments in this video and then if he edited the footage himself, well we all might as well give up now and go [...]

Major Lazer – Bubble Butt (feat. Bruno Mars, 2 Chainz, Tyga & Mystic)

Once you know that this is directed by Eric Wareheim then it all becomes clear. Well, as clear as it can be, which TBH isn’t very clear at all. Instead you’ll be left with mouth agape pondering just WTF it was you just sat through. It features a lot of butts anyway, not that you’ll [...]

The National Mood is Still Gloomy

In case you didn’t know, The National is an American indie rock band formed in Cincinnati, Ohio. There was a moment on their last tour when Brooklyn’s (their new adopted home) The National reminded you just how special they can be – and are regularly. I find it hard to believe this will not be [...]

Awkwafina “My Vag” (Official Music Video)

If the guys have got Mickey Avalon’s “My Dick” then it’s only fair that the girls get a version that works for them. So step up Awkwafina and her lol-worthy track ‘My Vag” — and the vag she’s singing about is certainly unlike any other, it manages an incredible amount of stuff, from feeding the [...]

For the guy who rekindled the public’s interest in space travel via his tweets [...]

Daft Punk – Get Lucky ft. Nile Rodgers & Pharrell Williams

It you are going to make a video for a Daft Punk record then you have to venture into the realms of ‘wtf?’ in order to keep balance in the universe – And who better to enlist than Peter Serafinowicz to add order to chaos, oh, and while we’re at it, lets give him three [...]

Nick Bertke (aka Pogo) is back and soothing our soul with a dance mix of sounds, voices and music from Spongebob Squarepants – Proving that you can make something great even more awesome as we fall in love with Spongebob and his buddies all over again (whilst tapping our feet). I’ve never wanted a crabbie [...]

Jon Hopkins “Open Eye Signal” (Official Music Video)

This is not your average skateboard video, instead it’s an epic odyssey in the desert and it all adds up to a beautiful video with some stunning shots and locations. And that’s not even getting to the track, which is totally badass too and the video is perfectly paced for it. It’s an audiovisual voyage, [...]
