Newax played at ZXZW 2008. Now our homies from Spread Motion made a new clip for them. Nice one!

Three months ago we let you met fantastic dutch artists with awesome album/single covers. And now Zwar found us a music video of one of these fabulous artists. Recorded at the Tilburg funfair. Enjoy!

Of course this song, Schone Maid, is a classic.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7ZGX8Gxzyw]
The original version is by Tony Marshall.

But talking about zangers: Zanger Bob, one of our favourite singers also made a cover version of it. I think the start of it started with De Heikrekels. They did this version. If u want more Schone Maid? Check Hossa, the House of Schlager.

Tom Brosseau, who played at our festival last year, wanders through downtown LA in “You Don’t Know My Friends” Citing influences as diverse as Nick Drake, Cole Porter, and Woody Guthrie, Brosseau composes poetic new Dylan-esque folk inflected acoustic rock. Delived in a unique high lonesome sound, his minimalist sound has often been described as “haunting”, or simply “stunning”.

Listen/download the song here.

Thanks LA Weekly

From the Guardian Music:

“The deafening American guitar band have issued a recall of their new CD, saying that the album is too loud.The problem affects copies of Farm purchased in “European shops”, according to the band’s website.

While it’s not clear if this affects copies released in the UK, buyers can either check the bar code – copies with the number 5414939004926 are affected – or else pop the CD into your stereo and see if your ears start to bleed.”

See the new Dinosaur Jr. music video here.

Yes, we know Borat is not hip any longer, but we don’t care :P

Just watch this lovely new Harlem Shakes video above. it was made by Supermarché.

Thanks to Mr. Berry our friend from Holland for letting us know.

This vid shows in a very nice and short way how widely hiphop has spread nowadays. Great video.

Via the Walrus.

Great song, and even better video. Maybe this could be as great as Macarena?

And we are not the only ones according to this ‘live’ performance:

Something like  Travolta’s with Brian Wilson or The Spades with Johnny Thunders.

Nice video about sampling in “Smack My Bitch Up” of the Prodigy.

And you thought you were getting a Slayer video? This song is by the extreme right wing religious sekt of Westboro Baptist Church (www.god hates fags.com). They’re famous for their very catchy slogans: ‘Fags doom nations’, ‘God hates you’ and ‘you’re going to hell.’

On their website they show why God hates every last one of us. It is very conveniently structured per country.

WBC on the Netherlands:

“God Hates The Netherlands. Let’s make this crystal clear: The Netherlands is the filthiest country in the world, bar none. They have given this country wholly to the Sodomites in a hand basket.”

We love the internet! Just browsing some very nice Russian album covers we stumbled upon this one depicting Igor and Natasha. Wondering how they would sound we were lucky enough to eventually find this video:

The blogpost about John Cage made me think of Philip Glass, so here are two nice pieces by that other famous composer.

Piano by Branka Parlic 27th of October 2004 @ Sinagogue in Novi Sa, Serbia

Cheers!

Catchy tune for the mighty Gazprom, the Russian energy monopolist.
The feel-good anthem was composed and performed by Vladimir Tumayev, director of the Gazprom subsidy Spetsgazavtotrans and founder of the company football club, SOYUZ-Gazprom.

It even modulates at the end!

Let’s throw in this Monty Python classic than too:

Blaas of Glory – Ace Of Spades. Recorded in Diepenheim 28-09-2008.

Let’s hope men in tights are coming back to the fashionworld soon. And long 80s heavy metal style hear too.

Kieran Hebden, aka Four Tet, teamed with shadowy English dubstep crossover Burial, aka William Bevan.

Stereogum on Moth: “‘Moth’ finds Reichian Gamelan giving way to wooden percussion and subtle background pitch/vocal smears, with an echoing spaciousness that remains throughout.”

Drawing inspiration from both The Beatles and The Stones, to contemporary artists such as The Strokes and Kings of Leon, these beasts throw a great party for every rocker with a weak spot for pop melodies.

ZXZW 2008 Act ‘Go Back To The Zoo’ released a new video.

Masks rule!

ZXZW 2009 artist Bodi Bill play live on the roof of Berlin’s Weekend in summer 2008.

Although the song is not as weird as we are used to hear from them lately, “Satellite Skin”,  Modest Mouse‘s new video certainly is!

Watch it here.

Very cool ad by Chris Cunningham, who we all know from his very cool music videos like these: All is Full of Love, Rubber Johnny and the Playstation ad with the girl.

Party on!
