Hong Kong State of Mind
by A friend of mine recently brought this Hong Kong video rendition of Jay Z’s Empire State of Mind to my attention. And while the videographer in me absolutely adores some of the effects used to film the clip, I’m left feeling the same sentiment as Hyp3rN3rd’s comment: ‘i like the ‘spoof’ and all but the chick can’t sing’.

This is a friend of mines’ blog. Her name is Nirrimi. She takes really amazing photos, and she makes great little films, too. I did the music score for one a while back.

There’s something quite attractively kitsch about the Lucky Dragons’ latest release, Dream Island Laughing Language. It’s undoubtedly unusual, and not too friendly on the ears, but something warm and fuzzy keeps creeping out of the broken drum rhythms and looped vocals. It’s a mish-mash of jangly folk licks, Squarepusher-style drum ‘n bass with a few Coco Rosie-esque experimental sound effects thrown in: intriguing, original, and fairly hard to describe!
