Forget

Everybody has been wondering where you’ve been and now that we know what happened, we’re all wondering where you are. And even though we feel bad we won’t be seeing you around anymore, we want you to know we feel better we won’t have to worry anymore. We know your only worry now is: you worrying about us worrying about you. And even though we stopped worrying, that doesn’t mean we’re not still sad. And we’re happy to let you know that we always will be.

Капитал (Capital)

Probably the best videoclip I’ve seen in years (for more than one reason). The band playing is Lyapis Trubetskoy (or Ляпис Трубецкой) and it is from Belarus! (the official website seems to be down, which prevents us from knowing much more about him/them/etc.).

Capital 01

Capital 02

Even more images here, in case you’re not convinced yet!
The guys who made it claim to have invented bullet-time. Mad-genious kind of people. Their website in russian or english (what I watched there doesn’t even come near to this videoclip).

Oh, and I have no idea what the lyrics are saying, but I’ll find out, anyway these are pretty in-your-face:

Capital 03 - Saddam Capital 04 - Mahmud Capital 05 - Kims

According to a youTube comment the lyrics are:

I dine
Gold bars
Diamond for dessert
Oil cream

My name is Beelzebub
Master of the Stratosphere
I’m realy cool
Respect to me infinity

On the left hand Snickers
On the right hand Mars
My PR manager is Carl Marx

I dine cities
I am drinking seas
My beard covers the sky
Thunders and lightnings, fogs and rains
Ministers and leaders kiss my boots

Nine Circular Degrees of Separation

Vladimir Dubissarsky & Alexander Vinogradov, who make contemporary art, just like Franz Ackermann, who is German, just like
Adolf Hitler, who was a vegetarian, just like
Andrei Tarkovsky, who was Russian, just like
The Dalai Lama, who is a religious leader, just like
Béla Tarr, who makes movies nobody seems to understand, just like
Pope John Paul II, who spoke Spanish, just like
Amon Tobin, who contributed to recent Hungarian cinematography, just like Alex Trochut, who does not have a name that seems to be from where he is, just like

Revolution Void

Jonah Dempcy, 23, producer and jazz pianist. Together with Seamus Blake (saxophonist for Mingus Big Band), Matthew Garrison (bassist for Herbie Hancock) and Lucas Pickford (Brian Blade) crafted Increase the Dosage, which unites “electronic music with live improvisation, resulting in a style of music described variously as nu-jazz, electro-jazz or electronic breakbeat jazz”.

Recordings started back in 2000 and in 2005 the album was released under a Creative Commons license. Which means you can download it for free, listen and decide for yourself how you like it (instead of reading my ramblings):
