It took a bit of doing, but I finally managed to hammer out what I *think* is a complete list of all of the musicians/singers that appear, in order, in the “Welcome to Beijing” music video that was presented as a 100-day countdown theme before the 2008 Olympics in China. I had originally seen [...]

I’ve discovered a new J-Pop band that I really like, making it, Every Little Thing and AKB48 now the trifecta of J-pop that makes up the non-HP sector of my J-favorites. The group is called SweetS and I found a bunch of their videos and albums through this giant collection of J-Pop MegaUpload links. [...]

If you expected anything to come from a group called “Latvian Music League,” what might you expect? A rendition of the Ghostbusters theme song? With a singer whose garment changes colors? With cellos? With freakish people in the background who remind me of the white dreadlocked twins from the Matrix?

Here’s a small collection of videos showing two musicians playing on the same instrument. Post a link in the comments and I’ll try to add it to the list!
Example:

2 Guys 1 Flute - J.S. Bach Badineri
2 Guys 1 Guitar - 90210 Theme
2 Guys 1 Guitar - Mozart/Classical
2 Guys 1 Guitar - Jerry’s Breakdown

Check out this video of a 13-year-old acoustic guitar player doing Stevie Ray Vaughn’s Mary Had A Little Lamb. It’s way better than you’re thinking ^_^

I actually only remember the end-credits of The Electric Company because Sesame Street came on after it. But from what I hear, it was a staple of 1980s kids programming for America’s Public Broadcast System (a viewer-funded system with no commercials, for those outside the US). The actual show only ran up until 1977 [...]

An excerpt from the strangely can’t… look… away…-esque flash video, Charlie The Unicorn 2 by FilmCow.com, they actually offer the Banana-in-your-ear tune for free on mp3. Add it to your tracklist on whatever your mp3 player is for a wtf? moment whenever some poor un-Charlie’d sap hears it playing. It makes for either [...]

I don’t have the x360 back yet, but I’m borrowing a friend’s. Made a few more videos like a remix on the Mongoose Overkill Extermination Splatter with different music and mo’betta angles.

There’s also an exploration demo of Lucifer7’s custom map for Avalanche, showing a remarkably decent AT-AT from Star Wars (the big 4-legged walkers [...]

A clever way to get more revenue from J-pop concerts for music groups who consist of just singers (and no musicians who merely stand in one place and perform) — similar to America’s boybands like N*Sync or Backstreet Boys — is to make a DVD of a particular recording of the entire concert focused on [...]

I’ve been a fan of C-ute for a while now, but I can’t say their latest PV offering much followed along in the same quality as most the others have (except the Masara Blue Jeans video, not a fan). This particular tune was good but the video just never seemed to match up in [...]

Today has been my indoctrination unto the band Nightwish by their tune Dead To The World. I actually came about it through the second video, but I figured I might post the original first and let the decision be up to you. I vote accordian, frankly ;-D

I’m willing to give a month’s advertising (size of the T-shirt link to the right, there) to the person who graciously answers my metafilter question, “Mystery Mixtape Movie Score Track: Elfman, Zimmer & Kazoos“
Help me identify this mystery track from my friends’ mix CD, that he can’t recall either. No sample available, yet! It’s more [...]

I’m not sure I’d like exactly everything on this list, but it’s quite possibly the largest post I’ll ever make. I was trying to find the tune “Dear My Friend” by Every Little Thing and whilst hunting came across this giant list of downloads the dude had purportedly been capable of acquiring. As a [...]

Kid Pwns Canon

I normally am “oh man, another Canon in D fanboy” but this dude/kid/teen/whatever does give it some justice with his electric guitarifcation. Not too shabby, sir!

Those crazy folks at WFMU have taken all of the Beatles albums released in the UK and compressed them down into a one-hour mp3 that you can download if you please. The file is shy of 85mb, and I’ve got it running in the background even now. They’re going so fast I can barely [...]

While looking at comments made to my Throw Me Glitch video, I saw another similar one, and whilst viewing began whistling with surprising precision to the background music, which I suspected came from the PC hit DOOM series. I then went on a search for Doom music, and came across this collection for you [...]
