I like this idea. A viral video for a remix. Excellent. Especially when it’s a remix as deserving as this one – in which Diplo makes Tell ‘Em kick even more ass than it originally did. More ass-kicking in the video itself, which initially just looks like a lazy fan overlay of the track on [...]

JANUARY. It’s finished now. Good riddance to it. It was largely cold and rubbish. But it produced some good music and some good music videos. Here are my ten favourite tracks I’ve written about on this here blog so far in 2011. If you’ve missed any of them, go and check them out. You won’t [...]
Video: Sleigh Bells – Rill Rill
Posted: 27th January 2011 by instanthits in VideosTags: sleigh bells
Best video I’ve seen all year. It’s rare I’ll actually pay serious attention to a video, rather than just going “pretty image fits with pretty song” or “this looks balls”. Yes, I belong to the Beavis and Butthead school of music vid criticism. I KNOW. Anyway, this one has lots of the “pretty image fits [...]
Top 75 Tracks 2010: THE TOP TEN
Posted: 22nd December 2010 by MV in Future HitsTags: delorean, hope sandoval, james blake, kanye west, katy b, massive attack, nicki minaj, niki & the dove, robyn, sky larkin, sleigh bells, underworld
Yes, it’s here, the actual top ten. I felt like expanding my annual top 50 to 75 was a clever move. I now feel like I’ve been writing about songs pretty much FOREVER. It’s a good job doing so is such fun. Anyway, as this is the top ten, you will not be surprised to [...]
New Sleigh Bells video – Infinity Guitars
Posted: 21st September 2010 by MV in VideosTags: lame apology, sleigh bells
Apologies friends and (rapidly dwindling) readers. This here blog is effectively “on hiatus” right now, while I sort my life out. Hopefully I shall have done so soon, and I can resume posting exciting new videos. I thought as well as the apology, I better post something. Turns out I timed this well, for here’s [...]
Sleigh Bells, TEETH, Becoming Real – The Lexington, 9th August
Posted: 10th August 2010 by MV in Live ReviewTags: becoming real, lexington, london, sleigh bells, TEETH
Last night I headed over to the Lexington for a rather tantalising triple-bill of new noisemakers. Headed by hype band of the moment Sleigh Bells, our otherwise dull Monday night was further enlivened by the Moshi Moshi-endorsed TEETH and a couple of kids with drumsticks known as Becoming Real. It was all rather entertaining. Becoming [...]
