Excuse the long absence boys and girls. Summer vacation was in effect under the bridge and we decided to take some time off for a little fun in the sun. We start to get a little pasty if we spend all year trapped down here. But now playtime is over. No more late nights and [...]
Eye Drops: Walk It Out Fosse
Gwen Verdon deserves another Tony for hot stepping like this. Fosse choreography is classic to the bone and there’s not music worth hearing that wouldn’t benefit from jazz hands. DJ Unk thought he was on some new shit when he started walkin it out. Little did he know he was following in the footsteps of two [...]
Eye Drops: TheSaurus & Illmaculate
2006 Scribble Jam winner and all around fire sparker TheSaurus spits cinders off the dome over and over in this clip. There’s no question my man is distinquished and I’d hazard the rent on him in cipher. He’s one of those Back to the Future MCs. The kind of dude who returns a serve before [...]
Eye Drops: “White Chicks and Gang Signs”
Coming soon: The white girl suicide bomber.
Eye Drops: Esmee Denters
I’d suggest you head for high ground now if you don’t want to get swept up in the Esmee Denters tsunami. Serious rumblings have already started on the web and when you feel the Earth shake like this you know a giant wave is about to break. Another example of how the internet is speeding [...]
Eye Drops: Dan Deacon – “Crystal Cat”
Occasionally I’m accused of liking things just because they’re strange. Occasionally I watch a video like Dan Deacon’s “Crystal Cat” and think that my critics might be on to something. Thankfully by the time I’m done shooting up freak-junk and losening the belt tied around my mind’s arm, I’m so high off conceit that I forget about [...]
Eye Drops: Robyn – “Konichiwa Bitches”
Pop music is direct. It hits you and you’re moved, either to the dance floor or tears, before you have a chance to think about why. My favorite Swedish pop princess, Robyn, knows this is the secret to success and has taken the idea right to the edge of reason with her video for “Konichiwa [...]
Eye Drops: Kavinsky – “Testarossa Autodrive”
Kavinsky makes music like an ’80’s car chase scene- frantically synthetic. This video is apparently based on a real car crash he suffered back in ‘86 and he must still hear those sirens in his sleep because you can hear them in the song. There’s a Knight Rider by way of Frank Miler feel to [...]
Eye Drops: Fujiya & Miyagi – “Ankle Injuries”
Fujiya & Miyagi take a chance rolling the dice in this video and the rest of us get lucky. An obvious step child of “Fell In With A Girl”, this take on their song “Ankle Injuries” shows us that fruit doesn’t have to fall far from the tree to still taste sweet. This delicious mango [...]
