Big Ideas: Don't Get Any

Following up from what Victor9000 posted earlier, this is an entry (the winning entry?) from a contest to remix the song "Nude" by Radiohead. It's made entirely from antiquated electronic equipment.

This sort of reminds me of that time that I made love to 24 virgins at the same time. No seriously, all 24 at the same time. It was a magical experience. It's not that this video plays some role in that memory it's just that most everything reminds me of that.


Big Ideas (don't get any).

"This was quite a difficult task for everybody that entered, as Nude is in 6/8 timing, and 63bpm. Most music that's played in clubs is around 120bpm and usually 4/4 timing. It's pretty difficult to seamlessly mix a waltz beat into a DJ set.

"This resulted in lots of generic entries consisting of a typical 4/4 beat, but with arbitrary clips from "Nude" thrown in so that they qualified for the contest."
