This is a video of musician Vermilion performing his top 50 favorite Nirvana guitar riffs. He’s pretty good with that guitar, and if I were half as good I probably would have had a lot more luck with the ladies in my college dorm. Oh who am I kidding, there
This is MIA’s 2007 banger ‘Paper Planes’ being performed (complete with gunshots) by the characters in 210 different movies. Now that — that is some serious editing. How do people do this? And, perhaps even importantly, why do they do it? Don’t get me wrong, I’m thankful they do, but
Because where better to look for fresh beats than beyond our own corner of the galaxy, NASA has released ‘Black Hole Remix’, audio from a distant galaxy cluster. Or possibly just the sound of a billion UFOs chugging along in the space in-between. Either way, it beats whatever I just

This is an edit of Simon & Garfunkel’s classic ‘The Sound Of Silence’, but with the harmonies replaced with their mirror images (negative harmonies), for a different feel. That’s cool, but I’m partial to the original — it’s a great song to listen to when I’m brooding. Dammit, it’s just
This is a stop motion video of chronic starer (You got a problem, boy?!) and pianist Lord Vinheteiro performing Korsakov‘s ‘Flight of the Bumblebee’ with a single finger, his digit remaining motionless and only the keyboard moving. He says he spent 36 hours making and editing the one minute clip,
