Sampling Video & Taking IDM to a Whole. New. Level.

This is masterful use of some mundane video clips of a toddler (?) making noise and faces on video. There is obviously a little manipulation going on with some of the sounds, but the final edit is gorgeous in terms of sound. Cute kid, too.

Oh, and here's a Remix.

A New Cover of A Song that Ignited the Fair Use Debate in the '80s.

The cover itself by The 180 Gs is clever and funny in its arrangement, but the addition of the surreal video mash-up takes the song to a new level, if you are familiar with what Negativeland did originally.

If you aren't, fear not. Wikipedia's got it all documented here: http://bit.ly/MZYN0.>

And that interview with The Edge? Transcribed here: http://bit.ly/24mfGF.>

NOTE: The person who posted the video disabled embedding. You'll have to click through to YouTube to watch, but it's worth it.
