Home of the musical Dream Journal.

When people refer to electronic music not being “human” enough, it’s not just about the music: Kraftwerk’s robots had a delicious sense of dry (and some would say, situationally Teutonic) humor.

The young generation is bred to believe in newfound freedoms, and not just downloading digital music. Being a cubicle drone and hearing one’s parents or grandparents regrets in life — deferred happiness — becomes increasingly less attractive, especially when the Internet empowers us to share our insecurities and dreams.

Immersed in a culture of individual responsibility and “take charge of your own life”, is this not a wondrous thing? As independent as each one of us strives to be, validation from others on their parallel, similar, likeminded journeys is nonetheless reassuring.

In addition to being a beautiful, powerful tune that moves fast and slow at the same time, this music video (besides the ambidextrousness) has a potent message: just because you stopped doing something after you “grew up” doesn’t mean you really outgrew it. The animated, overlaid characters — like the bar chart dance sequence — work a treat, and this is laden with emotion. Mistabishi and Matrix are two of my fave DnB (and beyond…) producers because they not only have a profound sense of groove, but through work like this, playfulness and humanity shine through.

Props to Unit 10 Collective for realizing this vision!

Just when you thought mid-late-90s computer animation was behind you. Don’t forget webdesign, either.

I wonder if this was the basis for Xavier: Renegade Angel?

Pitfall! the classic Atari game in colorful watercolors by docpop. I jones on his style, esp. the rainbow trail — and this makes me wonder how the croc pit was ever so shallow.
