I’m here

How did I miss this? An Absolut funded short film from Spike Jonze. Bold brands, clever advertising and Mr. Jonze. Sold.

“I’m Here” is a robot love story celebrating a life enriched by creativity. The movie is set in contemporary L.A., where life moves at a seemingly regular pace with the exception of a certain amount of robot residents who love among the population. A male robot librarian lives a solitary and methodical life — devoid of creativity, joy and passion – until he meets an adventurous and free spirited female robot.

You can watch screenings of the 30 minute film here and the clever part, you can add a friend to watch along via facebook (who said the digital age was cold) Oh, and another thing, someone’s edited random clips to make an unofficial video to S.P.Y’s future D&B classic ‘By your side’ and boy does it work.

Brett Domino

We’re latecomers to the Brett Domino D.I.Y sound but it’s Geek Chic in full force (with tongue firmly in cheek) Check it:

The Morecambe And Morecambe Minimix

Get to know Morecambe & Morecambe – Twisted visuals and some beats to match:

Formed after the carnage of a London Night out, two likely lads, both  raised in the Midlands thought it was time to cut the shit and form a new act which would offer fun, bouncy, up beat and non pretentious house music to the masses. Between them they have an arsenal of productions, remixes, re-edits and radio plays, and with the intention of driving this forward with Morecambe and Morecambe could spell out some exiting times on the horizon.
After their performance for wolf and badger at Selfridges they have made it clear they want an element of humour, un predictability, no attitude and just out and out great house music and visuals to be portrayed in their sets.

Mass Media at its best expect to find some truly bizarre imagery going down when Morecambe and Morecambe come to town.
