#33 De Hoofd-Geitebreier Remixed


I'm loving the new images and updated sounds of the opening titles for one of the longest running Dutch youth TV show "Het Klokhuis".
The opening sequence is directed / designed by Johnny Kelly for Nexus and the original score is by the late great Harry Bannink, who in the Netherlands, for anyone aged 30 and up, is better know as the hoofd-geitebreier (the Head Goat Knitter) of yet another famous Dutch TV show.

#31 Subliminal Messaging


I love commercials with funked up rock-riffs and incorporated urban youth culture / vandalism. Russian Telco Beeline adds another element: Va-jay-jay.
Beeline has it all.

#30 My buddy David Pino...

has a new video that just hit the airwaves. It's for the song 'Not Jealous' a single taken from Pino's most recent full length: The Long-lost Art of Becoming Invisible.
'Not Jealous' is a beautiful duet with former Room Eleven singer Janne Schra, coincidentlly David's ex-girlfriend. The video features 8 MM footage of a trip they made together in Canada a few years back.
You see... it's a layered song and video.

#29 Dear Smint...

Daft Punk called... they want their music back.



#28 Random Linkage


- Talk about insecurity. Axl refuses Slash like people at concerts.
- Fever Ray alienation acceptance speech.
- Geographical locations of famous rock 'n roll places.
- The 5 creepiest near-future advertising techniques.
- South African Rave Rappers Die Antwoord apparently are the next big thing.

#27 Wanna play rock 'n roll tennis?


Two iconic pants joined forces back in 1990 when Nike launched their "Wanna Play Rock 'n Roll Tennis?" campaign. The two iconic pants here off course being Andre Agassi's 'bike-shorts-beneath-denim-short's' and Flea's 'stuffed-animal-pants'.

I love the spot, especially the last part where Mister Agassi concludes Nike's, look-at-us-we-just-made-tennis-freaking-awesome! message, with the smurky sounding words: "any questions?". Well in regards to your recently published biography, yes Mr. Agassi, I do have question.

1. Are you (and Flea and Anthony) on drugs while shooting this thing?
B. Is that a wig you're wearing or is it 100% percent naturelle?

and

F. Are you related to Collin Farrel?



Part 2.
