APRIL'S LOG OF SHIT SHE LIKES

99dollarmusicvideos:

Remember the wisened director Timothy McConville from Tuesday? Well today you get to enjoy the fruits of his labor by watching his music video for “White Piano.”

Tim is not only the director but the band’s drummer. So tune in now to see how he turned a dirty, jagged jam of a song into a dirty, jagged jam of a music video.

BONUS: Dutchess has 3 FANTASTIC songs available for FREE DOWNLOAD from the heat-seeking, hit-makers RCRD LBL. Go get ‘em.

LOVE love love this week’s music video. Doesn’t hurt that Tim’s a straight up nice guy. Favorite thing I just saw is that even though it’s stop motion, the cars in the background change but still look like one car moving across the street, at 0:14. Rad.

Reasons to reblog (aka why this is awesome):

1. Darth Vader playing the drums with light sabers
2. Abe Lincoln
3. Sheer level of song catchiness
4. Fun typography
5. Magnum P.I.
6. Cartoon blood
7. Number of pop culture references

(plz note, vaguely NSFW and also lots of fake hatcheting it up)

Ben Folds Presents: University A Cappella! The Documentary

“In 2009 Ben Folds released a greatest hits record, of sorts, sung entirely in a cappella. The album, Ben Folds Presents: Unviersity A Cappella! features two tracks performed by Ben himself, but the bulk of the material was performed by various university a cappella groups.”

It’s completely amazing. And basically the coolest thing ever. I’m curious to hear the result.

This Debussy, Clair de Lune visualization is lovely. 2:05 gets me every time.

(thanks Chris! it IS mesmerizing.)
