What would you like the future to hold, more often we hear vague wants, so its nice to hear about very defined goals...

A little wild, a little rebllious, that would be the stop motion music video for 1970's punk band The Johnny 7 Combo and their song "I Wipe My Nose On You".

A cover of Kanye West - Heartless. Clever little video, love the little doodles and their subtlety.

Just when you think you know whats coming someone throws a curve ball on what we call belief.

After Drums of Death closed Bestival with a brilliant and surprising performance swapping his Trouble and Bass tunes for live snares and mutant power-pop, he now debuts his music video for 'Got Yr Thing'. A twisted heartbreaker of a tune taken from his forthcoming Greco-Roman release 'Generation Hexed', the video was directed by the duo John Major’s Daughters (whose previous videos include Lesser Panda and The Black Lips) filming Drums of Death howling in the dance hall.

DD: Drums of Death the Movie... when is that coming?
Drums of Death: Ha. Not yet.

DD: How was the experience of making your first video?
Drums of Death: Boring, tedious and I did the least work. Everyone had been working since 8am or such and I swanned in mid-afternoon, wrestled my megalomania, then left.

DD: John Major's Daughters, how was it working with Drums of Death?
John Major’s Daughters: DoD is amazing. We'd seen him perform a couple of times and knew we could make something for him. He's a wild man...

DD: What's Colonel Blimp?
John Major’s Daughters: Colonel Blimp is a cartoon character from The Evening Standard, “pompous, irascible, jingoistic and stereotypically British” is how Wikipedia sum him up. Once we've taken the time to write it, that's also how Wikipedia will describe those of us who work at Colonel Blimp, a London-based music video production company.

DD: How freaky did things get on set? All that face paint...
John Major’s Daughters: Things got freaky. Fast. A force came over us far too powerful to deny. People were foaming at the mouth and convulsing in the corners, the lights started to strobe and we danced a scary dance. Even our cameraman was caught. Some of the runners didn't even make it through, who knows where they are now. Poor souls. But for those who did, life will never be the same again. Ever.

HD Recording of the outro movie played before going onto the final encore song in The Beatles Rock band game.

Captures the feeling of the band pretty well and I'm not especially a big follower at that.... Nice colouring and visual mood. I particularly love the mixture of techniques that actually makes up the final piece. Never seen London look so good.....

Who today in the music scene do you see yourself in ... or who makes you smile with the sound they're creating?
Odd questions for me since, when I read them I was barely listening to nor going to hear live music. Several times I'd overdone it so much, especially in the '90s listening 24/7 when possible to the NYC jazz station, sitting in at jams and going to hear others so often that, after taking a break, I never returned. Until now.

Curtis Davenport, @CurtJazz on Twitter, in Charlotte, NC, has gotten me hooked on his eclectic jazz programming at www.curtscafejazz.com, which I'm now logged onto all the time. It started when he liked my new CD and promised to include it in heavy rotation on Curt's Café Noir. Since then, he's continuously delighted me with his choices of new and older jazz and sent me on several journeys to look up the artists.
