15 FEET OF PURE WHITE SNOW

(this video was stupidly removed, but we found it again. dear record company, this will help you sell more shit not less. how stupid can you all be?)

song released 2001, original post on TS 2003: “what could possibly make nick cave and the bad seeds any cooler? jarvis cocker, that’s who… released in 2001 this video still kicks brooklyn ars and for the youngsters, lets point out where the reference video for “pass this on” (the knife-2003) came from.” by dd

tap-dance crazy: coco rocha commercial during oscars a nod to “the artist”?


not so sure about how this is related to “the artist”, but coco c’est génial… apparently she had only one day of rehearsal and rocked it on the table like it was nobody’s business… not even bérénice bejo’s… surprising match up of coco with WHBM. love the tap idea, chic, and fun… so what’s next for coco? a duet? the commercial with coco for white house black market was filmed by swedish director johan renck, through the agency ceft and company in new york, with music by our friend donald cumming of the virgins. you can see the behind the scenes on youtube here. by kv
