Eli Escobar is an amazing DJ/producer in NYC whose blog and East Village Radio show I've been following for a while. Recently I got the chance to profile him for a short video - listen to him talk about making it as a DJ and branching out into remixing and recording original tracks.
Check out Eli's latest EP here.

in steve rash's 1993 comedy, son in law, an innocent country girl from South Dakota begins her freshman year at UCLA where her eyes are opened to the truths of dorm life. unable to relate to the lifestyle of her classmates and wanting to go back to the farm, crawl (pauly shore), the resident advisor, stops her from leaving by giving her an ambush makeover. watch the entire clip or cut to the 5 minute mark.

i've already blogged how much i'm loving the mellifluous and lo-fi sound of washed out (and their perfectly trimming video for "feel it all around"). here's their new video for "belong", directed by blake salzman. i like the aesthetic of the intro and the magic dance floor ride that commences around 2:22. they need some tour dates.

a testament to the legacy of heinz edelmann and yellow submarine. and if this song is any indication of what to expect from air's new album, it should be quite a pleasing slice of auditory stimulation.

Fatboy Slim's 1999 video for "Praise You" was directed by Spike Jonze. Jonze appears in the video under the pseudonym Richard Koufey and purports to be the leader of a fictional dance group called "Torrance Community Dance Group". the video was filmed outside of a movie theatre in Westwood, CA without permission from the property owners and security guards/movie goers tried turning off the boombox in the middle of their routine (see in video).
i remember watching the 1999 VMA's when "Praise You" won best choreography & best direction in a video...a classic mtv moment. Spike Jonze went on stage as "Richard Koufey" and accepted the award while Fatboy Slim watched from his seat and laughed hysterically. too bad i can't find a clip of it!
my favorite dance sequence is at 2:07, just before their boombox is shut off....reminds me of the bollywood dance my roommates and i did to chaiyya chaiyya two springs ago for our "India in Film" final exam.
so here it is:

in this collage music video, actor miles fisher (who you may recognize from his splendid tom cruise impersonation in "superhero movie") covers american psycho and "naive melody". oh, the irony! fisher makes a fantastic patrick bateman and the video's entire aesthetic is cool because it's taken directly from american psycho, but could this get any more banal? socialite lydia hearst and photographer charlotte kidd play fisher's hooker victims, all the more reason to watch.
you can download the crappy song featured in the clip for free here, but the vocals killlllllll me.
