TOP 10 FIRE-EST HEAT OF 2011
by DMack on Jan.02, 2012
Just kidding! Forget that title, here’s just 10 videos that come to mind. Check out this jumbo-sized list, I promise it doesn’t have Gucci Gucci on it.
Lovett – Eye of the Storm
This is just a gorgeous video that I forgot to post in February. If you dig it, be sure to check out the equally-eye-blasting behind the scenes video for it.
SALEM – Till The World Ends
Salem kept it real this year with a great video for KING NIGHT, but the video for their screwed-up Britney Spears track is a masterpiece. Till the World Ends‘ grainy night vision footage of strippers and combat operations is about as apropos as it gets for this tune.
A non-existent video for Waka Flocka Flame – Round of Applause…
Shoot! Did I imagine this? I thought there was a ridiculous video for this track. Things all wobblin’ out of control, Flocka just standing there in the background. When I put it that way, it sounds likely that I did just imagine this. I’ll substitute it for Lady – Twerk, which is just as absurd.
2011 was a way literal year for music videos.
Lil B – Got the Mack Loaded
Just when I thought I had Lil B figured out, he goes and puts on his “grandma errings” (sic.)
Machine Gun Kelly – Wild Boy (feat. Waka Flocka Flame)
I’m not big on the tune, but holy moly is this video ever a work of art. Cancel the Oscars and just air the magnificent intro to this video on a constant loop in its place. I haven’t seen “white dude trippin” like this since back when Nelly was making videos.

At 2:40, the bit leading into Flocka’s verse is my favorite music video moment of 2011. Brilliant.
MY ACTUAL FAVORITE VIDEOS OF THE YEAR
2011 was a fantastic year in music, and the videos did not disappoint. Here are my top videos of the year for real doe. I already posted them all, because that’s how the site works, so I’ll keep it brief!
The Death Set – It’s Another Day
Wild Flag – Romance
Neon Hitch – No Hands
Major Lazer – Original Don
The Death Set – Slap Slap Slap Pound Up Down Snap
There it is! At the start of 2011, I would not have guessed that Waka Flocka would be so well represented in my list of most notable music videos of 2011. Happy new year!
REMIX ROUNDUP!!!
by DMack on Dec.28, 2011
Christmas holidays have afforded me a bit of time to finally (hopefully) catch up on the backlog of stuff I’ve been meaning to post.

Tori Blake is a pop singer/songwriter from Orange County, whose single, Young Wild & Free got a pretty good remix treatment from Atlanta’s SPNCRxRNDY. Peep that below.

TALL SHIPS!!

Leicester’s Dark Dark Horse recently released a remix of Tall Ships – Hit the Floor. You can check that out on FADER Magazine’s Soundcloud page, because they don’t allow embedding (get it together, FADER).
THE MAFIA BROUGHT GUNS TO A KNIFE PARTY!!!!!!!
by DMack on Dec.26, 2011
The Swedish House Mafia and Knife Party team up to deliver a music video featuring an action-packed heist of sorts. It’s not going to win any awards, but there are boobs in it. So yeah. Merry Christmas!
FOK THIS IS ILL!!!!!!!!!
by DMack on Dec.24, 2011
Die Antwoord – Fok Julle Naaiers (ill.Gates remix), a recent rework of Die Antwoord’s new single by venomous bass-grinder ill.Gates, has got a remixed video and a free download. Hop on it!
WITCH HEART
by DMack on Dec.19, 2011
Rocky Horror’s HELL HOUSE podcast has posted a special guest mix by Joycette. The mix, entitled “WITCH HEART” is 29 thick minutes long, and well worth a few listens. Think “witch house” without skimping on the “house”.
Download: Hell House Guest Mix: Joycette
If you’re not already subscribed to the monthly HELL HOUSE podcast, get on it! It never disappoints.
PERTH!!!!!!
by DMack on Dec.18, 2011
The Polish Ambassador comin’ through with a really good remix of Bon Iver’s Perth.
RUN DA TRAAAACK!!!!!!!
by DMack on Dec.08, 2011
Lace up your white sneaks and grab your favourite bladed weapon, because Major Lazor dropped the video for Original Don this week.
It’s pretty dangerous to have that little dog running around with that wuxia-ass thing swangin’, don’t you think?
I WALKED ALONE!!!
by DMack on Dec.04, 2011
I think in 2012 I’m going to stop putting exclamation marks in my post titles. They’ll be implicit. PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GUCCI RAG TOP!!!!!!!!
by DMack on Dec.01, 2011
Kid Sister – Gucci Rag Top (remix) (feat. Danny Brown)
Man, somehow Danny Brown’s voice is perfectly suited for the stuff he says. You hear him spit something like “I’M ABOUT TA DRINK A HEINEKEN”, and you’re overcome by a feeling like he’s somehow the perfect dude to be saying that.
