Music Video: OK Go – Needing/Getting

06 February 2012, 15.25 | Posted in Music | No comments »
YouTube Preview Image

There are not many bands out there that can create appealing music videos that attract the masses, while producing them in cooperation with big brands, which usually turns out to be a turn-off for fans.

For the 2012 Super Bowl they teamed up with Chevrolet on the official music video for their song ‘Needing/Getting’ and once again they got creative.

“OK Go set up over 1000 instruments over two miles of desert outside Los Angeles. A Chevy Sonic was outfitted with retractable pneumatic arms designed to play the instruments, and the band recorded this version of Needing/Getting, singing as they played the instrument array with the car. The video took 4 months of preparation and 4 days of shooting and recording. There are no ringers or stand-ins; Damian took stunt driving lessons. Each piano had the lowest octaves tuned to the same note so that they’d play the right note no matter where they were struck.”

Kanye West Making a New Short Film in the Middle East

kanye west at givenchy Kanye West Making a New Short Film in the Middle East
Remember “Runaway,” Kanye West’s style-over-substance short film that dropped just before My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy? According to The New York Observer, Mr. West is getting ready to shoot another-nother film somewhere in the Middle East.

Sources tell The Observer that Mr. West sent members of his team to meet with film companies and government officials based out of Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Doha, Qatar to explore the idea of a production. A number of local municipal officials and film companies are said to be engaged in what was characterized as a heated bidding war for the contracts involved in bringing Mr. West’s vision to life.

Kanye’s team is moving to the region for a few weeks to scout actors from the region and get a feel for the culture. No details on the content of the film have been released, but it’s safe to say it’ll probably look something like this.

T by Alexander Wang Spring 2012 Campaign Featuring Die Antwoord

Last night we presented the crazy new music video by South African hip-hop band Die Antwoord for their song ‘I Fink U Freeky’ and today Alexander Wang unveiled his new T by Alexander Wang campaign featuring the band.

Not only were they included into the print campaign, but they also play a major role in the video that was released along with the campaign.

“His T by Alexander Wang campaign was shot by Dan Jackson, and ubercool South African hip-hop band Die Antwoord was flown in to appear in the images and two videos; a behind-the-scenes clip and the official campaign with “Fatty Boom Boom” from Die Antwoord’s new album “Ten$ion” playing. Later this month, MTV will put both videos in rotation on “120 Minutes.” “I am part of a generation that grew up with MTV, and obviously with music, and having it all work together made it a really fun project,” Wang said.” (Via WWD)

Watch the video featuring Die Antwoord here below.
