Radiohead's 'Nude' played by old computer parts

I rarely blog about youtube videos, but this is by far one of the most fascinating re-imaginings of popular song I've ever heard:



A 'remix' of Radiohead's popular single, 'Nude' made by programming various computer parts and peripherals as instruments. The ensemble consists of:

Sinclair ZX Spectrum - Guitars (rhythm & lead)
Epson LX-81 Dot Matrix Printer - Drums
HP Scanjet 3c - Bass Guitar
Hard Drive array - Act as a collection of bad speakers - Vocals & FX

It's refreshing to see true creativity amidst the countless droves of hackneyed club remixes for this track.

Wiimbledon Video

Last week I finished editing this piece for PBC Productions. A tad late but I figured I'd post anyway. Shot by Chad Williams. Awesome music by Cacomistle, Beatdrop and Christian Pacaud.
