Diamond Dogs New Video for Studio B.

21/02/2005 - Permalink

Malcom McLaren said "talent borrows, genius steals" and that's exactly what Diamond Dogs have done with their new video for Studio B "I See Girls". A homage to my favourite ever execution scene in Monty Python's "Meaning Of Life" the boys had ten girls running around in the rain on a freezing February afternoon. Good work fellas.

New Roots Manuva & Treats From Waverly.

Latest additions to the site include Alastair Siddons banger for Roots Manuva and Waverly five star debut for Jason Forest.

Roots was Shot at Stanway house in the Cotswolds - which ranks amongst the most beautiful locations we've ever shot at - featuring a brace of Chippenfield opium fantasy day beds; some top notch British character actors and Roots at his stumbling best we think this is a tasty winter warmer. Just as well as it also ranks as one of the coldest shoots we've ever been on too.

Jason Forrest first saw the light of day at ResFest, in LA May 2004 and inspired Colonel Blimp to lead the charge to sign the Waverly collective. Shot on a shoestring - $800 folks - the video was directly inspired by the records sampling of classic progressive rock. Add a pinch of Spinal Tap; a magician; an elf; a dwarf and away we go.
