Really like the song Phantom by Justice but wish it had lyrics and vocals? Here is Phantom by Justice with vocals and lyrics by The Phantom:

The Ten Most Incomprehensible Bob Dylan Interviews of All Time. I think #3 is my favorite as he giggles and draws a picture of the interviewer through the entire interview:

I'm pretty far behind on the blogging lately, let's see...

Amazon launched their DRM-free MP3 download service - good news for anyone who hates DRM. The implementation is nice, the player's decent. Things I don't know: a) how my music got in there b) how they decided on $6.99 for the price of my album (which is a dollar more than 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Tryin') and c) how much I earn out of the sales. Seeing as though I earn about $6.50 from each iTunes album sale I assume this'll be significantly less riches for me.

I'm pretty into Hype Machine lately. My friend Ryan's been bringing me up to speed on the blog house scene. I really don't have the time or patience or really anything to keep up with things so I'm relying on aggregators to do it. Of course now I'm thinking about writing my own as making web sites to enable my own laziness is sort of a passion of mine.

I think I could watch this Cadbury ad about one, maybe two thousand more times:

I think this is the first time I've ever been happy to hear Phil Collins.

1,500 plus CPDRC inmates of the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center, Cebu, Philippines at practice! This is not the final routine, and definitely not a punishment! just a teaser.

Miro - formerly Democracy now 1.0 and renamed. Very nice open source internet tv / video player.

Holy crap: musical tesla coils. This would be a sweet live show. Here's the Super Mario Brothers theme on solid state musical tesla coils:

The theme from Weird Science:

Beetlejuice:

And here's the introduction and explanation:

13 Great moments in the co-option of hip-hop - seems like Run-DMC/Aerosmith "Walk this Way" should be on there, but a lot of great (awful) videos on this list.

Middio - I'm kind of digging this site, basically just a front-end for all the music videos on Youtube.

Here's a clip last year of us playing Riverpalooza. Fireworks are sweet.

I was helping out at the White Glove Tracking project today, creating white glove data that I'm sure will be used in a way that will better humanity. Anyway, it made me go re-watch Michael Jackson's legendary 1983 Motown Billie Jean performance:

It's still entertaining, but two things stand out:

• Michael is so obviously lip-synching. I don't hear many people mention that when they talk about this performance.
• That glove is huge. Did they have nothing in Michael's size?

I like how previously rare or hard to reproduce things like Dark Side of the Rainbow are just plain on Youtube these days:

I had never seen it before and it works amazingly well. Just enough sync to make it seem meaningful. More links:

Wow, check out this Stevie Wonder Drum Solo.

I already knew he played the drums on a lot of his recordings, but it's still awesome. [via kristin]

This is probably a nightmare a lot of electronic musicians have had. (via GetLoFi)

For those of you who can't make it to the show Saturday night, I managed to film the end of us rehearsing our Search and Destroy cover:

 So glamorous!

I've read disappointing reviews but this trailer fills me with awesome hope for the Aqua Teen movie:

I went through Youtube looking for videos that used my songs and also uploaded a couple. There's a video player at the bottom in my the gallery now.

If you have or know of any others out there, send them in.

Jukka Forsten did this cool video for my song Fixing My Brain:

I like it, it's got a nice surreal feel to it.

Benny Davis performs a whole bunch of pop songs using the same four chords.
