The king of video remixing, Eclectic Method, has brought its chopped and screwed skills to the biggest movie of the year, Guardians Of The Galaxy. The comic sci-fi epic makes a nice fit for the remix considering it’s already iconic soundtrack and sample-ability of “I am Groot.” Electic Method manages to work Redbone’s Come and Get Your […]

If you enjoyed David Bowie and Mick Jagger “Dancing in the Street” without music, here is Mario Wienerroither’s latest “musicless musicvideo” of that famous Singing In The Rain number.
