(Notes on) Biology [Robot Elephant]

[vimeo http://vimeo.com/21119709]

So I know we’re a music blog and generally we post music (duh!), but I love other wacky, weird, and viral things. I absolutely love drawings, creativity, and creative drawings in videos. Danny Madden is an NYC-based animator and director — if you haven’t head of him, you will soon. This short piece is exactly what I love about Robot Elephants! Check it out, it’ll be the best six minutes of your day. Make sure to listen with headphones to get the dramatic feel of all things blowing up.

Hoodie Allen just dropped the visuals for his cover of Marina & The Diamonds’ “I Am Not A Robot.” It’s his first music video and the track is featured on The Pep Rally mixtape. I think he ran away from his January Jones at the end of the video.

You can check out Hoodie Allen at The Key Club in Hollywood on March 10. I’ll be there.

XV just dropped the visuals for FIFA (Feeling Internationally Famous Already) which is a teaser for the The Kid With The Green Backpack album that has taken longer to debut than Dr. Dre’s “Detox.”

“‘Pomona’ let us in,

Now they spotted a N***a like leopard prints”

Okay, Vizzy doesn’t really say “Pomona” but I thought he did, and I asked him, but he said “Club Owner.”
Damnit, I just wanted a shoutout to my city from XV. Ha
