Super Mega Bonus Time! Here’s Eric’s and co-director Devin Flynn’s (Lady Pants) extremely NSFW video for “Parisian Goldfish” by Flying Lotus featuring Dance Floor Dale:
Equipped with a lazer for an arm and a beret atop his head, Mad Decent’sMajor Lazer (a.k.a. Diplo and Switch) takes the battle to vampires, mummys, and knife-wielding bad dudes who drool a lot. The djs’ inaugral music video, which looks like it was ripped from the pages of a Heavy Metal magazine or Ralph Bashki cartoon, features the lovely Santigold and Mr. Lexx. Watch, be amazed, save your money for the action figures, and always remember: “Gunz don’t kill people, Lazers do”.
First there was Danger Mouse as he blew everyone’s mind with the Grey Album, a virtuoso mashup of epic proportions using Jay-Z’s Black Album and The Beatles White Album. Soon after, Diplo and Girl Talk surfaced and continued to mash proper as they created high quality remixes heard on dance floors around the world. Now comes some dude named Minty Fresh Beats and his offering of Jaydiohead. You think to yourself, ”Hmm…pretty questionable album title…but so what? I love Jay-Z and Radiohead, what could possibly go wrong?” Unfortunately soon after you listen to the first few tracks you may find out, as I did, that you now actually hate some dude named Minty Fresh Beats. Well, at least he tried. And it’s free.
