Yellow Alex Presents: Lisa Lisa Lisa Video

November 11, 2012

Yellow Alex, the Los Angeles based musical experience, recently released a video for the song Lisa Lisa Lisa. Previously, I had the pleasure of interviewing Alex of Yellow Alex at a local Silverlake coffee shop. The group possess a high energy passion for their craft, and this shows immensely during their live performance.

The Lisa Lisa Lisa video gives viewers a taste of their choreographed dance moves coupled with musical styling inspired by classic funk and soul. I highly recommend seeing them live. Yellow Alex will be performing every Monday night at the Silverlake venue the Satellite during the entire month of January. Visit their website for additional dates and information.

Producer, DJ, and entrepreneur Kill the Noise (Jake Stanczak) recently collaborated with filmmaker Mike Diva in order to visually embody the essence and tone of Jake's forward thinking sound. The music video contains a grindhouse sort of theme to it and focuses on a post apocalyptic Los Angeles in the year 2054 when "a bio-mechanical virus called 'the noise' has turned most of humanity into bloodthirsty drones".

Armed with keyboard automatic weapons and jambox rocket launchers, the video game esq players fight off zombies to get to the main boss. Take a look at the video below and Jake's write up in Rolling Stone:

From the bizarre kidnapping game in Cults' "Abduction", to Hourglass Sea's dysfunctional samurai family, to the haunting and emotionally charged masterpiece for Youth Lagoon's "Montana"; these 20 artists stretch their budgets in a big way to create breathtaking visuals that put the "Super Bass-es" of the world to shame. Even if this will forever be known as the year when the universe allowed "Friday" to become one of the highest viewed YouTube videos, we will still be able to fondly look back at some of these winners.
