MOMENTS WITH ALOE BLACC, MIKI AND JAYBO: "I NEED A DOLLAR" PART 5/6 from MADE Blog on Vimeo.

This is an amaaaaaazing video of Aloe Blacc performing a live rendition of his song, "I Need a Dollar." Backing is provided by Mihalj “MIKI” Kekenj’s string quartet. The performance, which took place back in April, was captured by artist Jaybo for the MADE project. Aloe sounds insanely good. It might be the orchestra mics or the acoustics but he sings so clearly and seemingly without effort. Love the drink in hand and the calm way he can just belt it out. Seriously great performance, I can't get over how good this sounds.


Bjork and Michel Gondry, "CRYSTALLINE." It seems like this song was made for a video and not the other way around. I can't imagine when you would want to listen to this song. I wouldn't be bumping this in my car, this isn't living room fare. It's tolerable with the visuals though. It's kind of like an insane Icelandic woman and a crazed French man got together for this project, or maybe that's just the vibe I get.


I love this commercial so much. I like to imagine the director and James' interactions like Bill Murray in, "Lost In Translation." "You know Lat pack?" *James just screams and does the splits*


Ha, these kids are awesome. They are the perfect duo. Strong silent type, straight man, on the right and the singer, emcee, on the left. Strong silent is intense, you have to love the face he makes when he does the shimmy. Amazing video. I love Andre 3000 as well children.


Great animated video for a nice airy pop number from Lanu featuring Megan Washington. Love the style, blends really well with the vibe of the song too.

Feeling this Unknown Mortal Orchestra song. Falsetto rockiness, recorded in SF. Of course they were formed in Portland.


Sene makes some quality hip hop. Became a fan of him from his work with Blu and Exile.
