Mikey Rocks - Foreign Features

 Stumbled upon this new video from Mikey Rocks of Cool Kids fame via illroots. It looks as tho the kids are keepy busy with plenty of side projects these days. This track is very fresh and I am a huge fan of the production. The video is also simple and well done (sup Canon 5Dm2). (vimeo)

Get Familiar!

DVAS hails from Montorontreal (that's Montreal + Toronto), Canada. They are really great and you should probably check them out. You can check out the video above (vimeo), listen to some more music on their myspace, and then see them live at Just Desserts #10 at Lincoln Hall on Saturday, September 11th. So, now you know...

The Cool Kids - Gold Links Music Video

I haven't been hearing from Chicago's finest Cool Kids too much lately as they have been busy touring the world and recording with probably everyone in the hiphop world. That said, I just stumbled upon their new video for Gold Links. The song is top notch. Classic Cool Kids beat and lyrics. The video, on the other hand, while not bad could probably due with 50% less effects clutter. It's a simple video seemingly shot on one location in perhaps an hour, which is fine! Why do we need 2 days of post effects to make it look all crazy? I don't think we do. Oh well. It's still a solid production and most definitely worth a watch! (youtube)

The Death Set Music Video

When I'm in the mood for some upbeat rock, The Death Set is tops. I still remember my first experience with them a few years back at SXSW when they ended up throwing an amp into a pool and basically causing all-out pandemonium. They recently released a new video for a cover they did of Daedelus. It's pretty well done and totally animated. Check it out above. (vimeo)

Juiceboxxx - 100mph (AC Slater remix)

We've got another Just Desserts coming up on Saturday, August 21st at Lincoln Hall (lineup to be released soon!). Originally, Juiceboxx was slated to perform but in the end it did not work out due to timing of schedule issues. I'm really bummed about it because he's so much fun live. As a small consolation, check out his recent video for the 100MPH song remixed by AC Slater. The video is my new favorite in a long line of solid Juiceboxxx music videos. (vimeo)
