imogen heap :vBlog#27

Imogen Heap makes music. She keeps a video blog. She shows off her creative process. It’s so amazing to see the nitty gritty of it.

Also she doesn’t stop talking for 10 minutes straight. I relate to her on a personal level and have an internet crush on her. It doesn’t help that her music is awesome.

Twin Skies fans are already amazing…

We have composed music for one of our games, Legends of Laundry. We put the mp3 up on the site here:

The composer of the song shared the sheet music with us and we put it up on the site in the same place.

Five hours later, one of our fans already played the flute part of the melody, recorded it, and put it online.

Presidents of the United States of America - Official Video for Kitty!

Wow, my jaw hit the floor. I checked my youtube descriptions and the official PUSA channel had updated like twelve things. One of them was KITTY! I click on it, and sure enough it’s what appears to be the official music video for the song that was never released.

Really cute. A few funny camera things, mainly when the cat goes through the doggy door. Barring that, it appears it was all done in one take… (It’s quite possible they pushed it through the door and someone inside grabbed it…)

Gun noises make great dance music…

I’ve marveled over this in the past:

This song is made entirely of sounds from Half Life 2.

Someone put together a song of similar concept, but made (almost) entirely of sounds from Team Fortress 2.

Oh I amuse myself…

I find great and childish amusement that I listen to a song called “Again & Again” again and again and again. And then do it again. Do it again.

A Bird and a Bee and an Eric

I have a schoolboy crush on the singer of “A Bird and a Bee.” She sang the “Again and Again” song that I squee’d all over, the fan-made Mac video with the cute girl in it.

Well my friends Myspace page had this new song on it, called “Polite Dance Song,” which is basically a really clever and breathy and sexy girl singing a dance song as politely as possible.

since i’m asking so nice
would you just entertain
there’s nothing left to hide you away
just show a little bit of brain

yes that is what i mean
that’s the nail that i hit
i try to be as coy as i can
but i wanna see your naughty bit

Watch the video first then check out my comments and screenshots…

Director of Knights of Cydonia video to direct….

So I go to youtube to watch/listen to one of my favorite music ids, Knights of Cydonia.

In the comments, I see:
“MUSE + Joseph Kahn = GREATNESS”

I look up Joseph Kahn on google, and find his IMDB, then I see:

“Neuromancer (2009) (pre-production)”

OMG. /dies

Edit: Wow, look at all the videos he’s made. Jeeeez…
