WATCHING 'WILL GET FOOLED AGAIN' BY MAX TUNDRA
'Hello Tony! I think we might use a video replay here!' ... Max Tundra released 'Parallax Error Beheads You' back in 2008 and accompanied said release with this piece of monochromatic wizzardry for the single - 'Will Get Fooled Again' directed by Woof Wan-Bau. The whizzkid behind Max Tundra, Ben Jacobs, has spent the last year lugging his keyboards round the World with notables such as Hot Chip and Passion Pit. Ben performs like the musical equivalent of the buzz conveyed by the Tango 'Slap' commercial and in between performing this densely layered keyboard phenomenon he finds time to remix many audio treasures including - 'Do You Want To' by Franz Ferdinand and Fledermaus 'Can't Get It' by Von Sudenfed. Domino is now chuffed to bits to announce a Max Tundra remix of 'Midnight Directives' by Owen Pallett. So to continue the analogy - You know when you've been Tundra'd. Max Tundra perform at Field Day, London on 31st August 2010.
Owen Pallett’s Lewis Takes Off His Shirt is released on 12”and via digital download on June 21st. Both formats will feature remixes from Dan Deacon, Benoit Pioulard, Simon Bookish, CFCF and Max Tundra.
ROSE IN LONDON - THE LOVESTREET
We have been delighted at the number of new films being made within the fashion industry by creative directors brave enough to use some of the most cutting edge music. Not only is it about people wearing nice clothes but the films are becoming hugely visually pleasing like Metamorphosis by The North Circular.
I've finally got round to grabbing the embed code for this film that I want to share with you. It was a product of the fantastic, new, hugely relevant course being offered by the London College of Fashion - MA Fashion Media Production, which this month enjoyed its first class graduation with all students passing including three with distinction. Whilst it may seem unfair to single out one student from an entire year - recent MA_12 graduate Saskia Reis had her music request from Domino rejected last year but we kept in touch. And we're so happy she's still talking to us as we are now able to look upon her film output like a proud parent. This film, entirely created by her, is one of several in her pioneering street-style blog THE LOVESTREET that proves that fashion - on the street anyways - can still have soul.
We look forward to the output of MA_13 and congratulations to LCF for taking the brave step in creating this course and good luck to all the students participating. If you want to find out more about Saskia, LCF or have a chat about this - email me.
