Awesome Music

Marvel at the powerful spellth and legendary ekthploith of the Wizard. Best Merrie Melodie ever made. The only way this would be better is if the young Ozzy Osbourne sung the song.

Alejandro de Antonio made a series of sweet portraits of music icons using vinyl records for the Unconventional Materials project of the Art Room. No word if the pieces are for sale though.

Beer brand Kronenbourg 1664 somehow managed to convince Motörhead to make a slowed down acoustic version of Ace of Spades. And it’s still bad-ass. Full song here, making of here.

A portable electronic piano made to look like a grand piano. You even have to open the lid to expose its speakers. Has 61 keys, 61 sounds and 25 phrases. Also available with a red lid finish.

YouTube stars Andrew Huang (Songs to Wear Pants to) and Hanna Hart (My Drunk Kitchen) collab to make a party tune proclaiming their love for food. Watch and listen to their other Nom song here.

Music video for BrokenDate by Seth Haley aka Com Truise, off of his Galactic Melt LP. The video matches the 80s synth music frame for frame, from the Laser Tag guns to the shots and angles.

(NSFW) The adrenaline-filled, first-person view, Mirror’s Edge-esque music video for The Stampede, a single off of Biting Elbows’ Dope Fiend Massacre EP. Directed by Ilya Naishuller.

Musician Jason Yang takes on Muse’s anthem Resistance on piano and electric violin. It gets a little nuts around 3:33, but an epic space-rock solo makes perfect sense in a Muse song.

It may look like a rolling amp and speaker cabinet for a rock band, but the On Tour cabinet from Aureate actually conceals shelves and drawers for storing books, games, movies, and what-not.

When we go to the cleaners, we’re too busy making sure they didn’t forget any of our shirts to notice anything else. But when Diego Stocco stops in, all he sees are a bunch of musical instruments.

We were pretty impressed by yesterday’s Freddie Mercury vocalization, but this guy from Santiago, Chile wins the award for the least likely person to pull off a convincing Eddie Vedder.

At first, we thought Marc Martel was lip-syncing, but he does the most uncanny impression of Freddie Mercury’s smooth and powerful vocals. Or maybe he’s just a medium for the dead. More here.

The video of Winehouse’s final recording – a lovely duet of the 30’s pop song Body and Soul with the legendary Tony Bennett. Reminds us just how talented she was. Amy talks about the single here.

Matt Mulholland does his crazy vocal thing on this classic skateboarding chase scene from the original Back to the Future. So what are you waiting for? Make like a tree and play the video already.

Musician Adam Ben Ezra takes on the theme music from Dexter with style, panache and plenty of tarps in this beautifully shot video by Guy Dayan and Sergey Maydin with sound by Dan Zipori.

While Annie Wu might not yet be at the level of Nathan “Flutebox” Lee or Greg Patillo, we can say with certainty that we couldn’t beatbox and play the flute at the same time when we were 15 years-old.

(NSFW: Nudity) Jeff Yorkes offers inspired musical pairings with classic moments from the cinema. In this clip we get the perfect juxtaposition of Lennon’s Instant Karma with Kubrick’s The Shining.

Remember Keepon, the little robot who went viral with his dance to Spoon’s I Turn My Camera On? Now you can have your very own Keepon, ready to get his groove on to any tune you throw his way.

Replicas of Cobain’s “battered and highly unusual” left-hander 1965 Jaguar. Has the same 3-color sunburst alder body (with worn-out finish), dual humbucking pickups and triple knob configuration.

Maybe the whole Pied Piper story had a bit of truth to it, as is evidenced by the crowd of bovines who gather round for a Dixieland jazz performance by The New Hot 5. Next time, start marching.

The funny thing about this video is that we never really do learn how to convert our PDFs to JPGs, but at least we learn what Keyboard Cat would look like as a robot. (Thanks, Gabriella!)

“Finger-drumming phenomenon” Jeremy Ellis works his blistering-fast digits across the 16 pads of the Maschine Mikro, a new computer-based system for cranking out electronic grooves.

The other world-famous French electronic duo Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay aka Justice are freakin’ back. The EP will be available on Sept. 19 while the full album drops on Oct. 24.
