HELP!! I need suggestions for venues for SPACE CADET headphone concert in YOUR town!

kidk — Tue, 15 Feb 2011 23:19:29 +0000

please watch this trailer from our first Space Cadet show:

let me know of any buildings, spaces, venues, rooms, galleries in your town/city where you think this would work! We are bringing headphone amplifiers and inflatable space pods for everyone and it is an all ages show… so this does not need to be your typical music venue with PA system or bar or anything.

For example, in Montreal, we are planning to set up this event at the BIOSPHERE.

Have a think, and please advise in the comments section below on this page.

Cheers!

Floor Kids : B-Boy O-Live vs. B-Boy Nugs

scott — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 17:32:29 +0000

Here’s a clip done by my animator friend Jonathan Ng. This is the first installment of a mini series of animated b-boy battles we are working on. You should also try to find Jonathan’s “Asthma Tech” short film that he made for the National Film Board of Canada. It rocks. Floor Kids part 2 and 3 are on their way. We will keep you posted.

Basin Street Blues

scott — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 17:31:23 +0000

This is the video for “Basin Street Blues” from the Some Of My Best Friends are DJs album. It was done by the animator Monkmus. During the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome tour, I called him up and told him I was going to start the next album with a turntable version of Basin Street Blues. Monkmus, who also has a penchant for New Orleans Jazz, immediately signed on to do the video. On two separate tours I was instructed to walk around the French Quarter of N.O. and take a bunch of reference photos of balconies and street lamps etc. I then sent him the track, 2 rolls-worth of reference photos, and some gum, and a year and a half later… this video was done. I don’t know where the inflatable alligator comes from. he so crazy. Anyhow… It’s a beautifully done video… enjoy.

Fender Bender

This is the video to Fender Bender off the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Album. It was also animated by Monkmus. My mom taped the MTV world premiere of it in all of it’s 1 minute, 50 second glory. After it aired, she immediately called me on the phone. the conversation went something like:

“hello?”

“son.”

“hi mom.”

“That video is strange. That thing that crawls out of the man’s back is a koala, no?”

“I guess so… you should ask [Monkmus]… um, but sure, yeah… it’s a koala.”

“Oh… okay, I get it then.”

Oddly enough, because the video was so short it actually got a reasonable amount of airplay. The different video networks would program it at the end of shows as a bumper before a commercial or an emergency time filler. So it would get programmed at the end of cooking shows as well as at the end of hair-metal hour. Now all of these Chefs and Headbangers turn up at my gigs. cool.
