Digging DJ Clipz's clownstep anthem "Rubbish"

Been enjoying this regression into D&B over at last.fm: this video vaguely reminiscent of the Coldcut videos from 2007 and Banksy-esque references throughout. (Note to self: The yellow and red robots remind me of Gordon Brown pushing Nick Clegg around saying "Nick, get real" in Morten Morland's 15-second satirical video of the 2nd UK Election Debate but that's by the by.)



Also get a (rather DIY) how-to vid on how to create your own clownstep track: the sounds get really squelchy around @2:00 and then positively mad around @5:05!! And if that hasn't done your head in... maybe you need to plug your ears in first! Can definitely see a health and safety hazard if there ever was a DJ Clipz vs Part Chimp night: mad clownstep tweaks and ear-splitting noiserock. Ouch ;-)

Part Chimp live

This is pretty much what it was like last Saturday at the crypt under St Giles... except 3 times louder. I think this live was more like an 'unplugged'/acoustic version, so I guess at least you can hear the chords and some of the singing. On the night the singing was a nice visual touch, hopelessly lost in an ear-splitting wall of sound: just the right conditions for a mindless mosh pit upfront.
