Star Trek vs Common People Mashup
This incredible mashup of Will Shatner’s incredibly painful rendition of Pulp’s “Common People” and the old Star Trek animated series is just too cool for words. Kirk and Spock. The…
Nude Track By Radiohead Played With Obsolete Gadgets
In response to Radiohead’s online contest to remix the ‘Nude’ track, James Houston rigged together some outdated and obsolete computer devices and peripherals to recreate the song, and a brilliant music video.
He used a Sinclair ZX Spectrum (which I owned, and spent frustratingly long hours loading and playing the 8-bit Batman game with) for rhythm and lead guitars, an Epson LX-81 Dot Matrix Printer for drums, an HP Scanner for bass guitar, and old and dying hard drives were used as speakers to reproduce the vocals.
You Suffer – Shortest Ever Recorded Song
At precisely 1.319 seconds long, “You Suffer” by British band Napalm Death has been officially recognized by the Guinness Book of Records as the shortest recorded song ever. The song only consists the lyrics "You suffer – but why?”
The track, originally recorded in March 1986, was featured on the band’s 1986 album Scum.
The song’s music video was released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the release of the record, and is probably the shortest music video to be ever made.

Omadaka Dancing is Hypnotically Beautiful, But Scary
Watching Masako Yasumoto dance in the hypnotic Omadaka style, left me quite entranced, but seriously creeped my wife out.
Omodaka has been defined as a mutational fusion of music and video developed through trial and error.
I must admit, there were moments when I almost expected her to step out from the computer screen.

Bjork – Wanderlust Video
Bjork, ever the maverick, is back with her latest video for the single ‘Wanderlust’ from her sixth studio album Volta.
The stunningly hypnotic video directed by a Manhattan based art collective – Encyclopedia Pictura, complements the music perfectly, and sometimes even eclipses it.
I highly recommended watching a much higher quality version of the video at the official site of Encyclopedia Pictura (site may be having bandwidth issues) or at here.
If you don’t have enough bandwidth to spare, you can watch a lower quality version after the jump.
