Electronic music (?) video collection

Not sure that all of these qualify as electronic music, but they all feel like they're in the same genre.

As some of you readers may remember, I had a post about Röyksopp a couple months back for their song "Happy Up Here." Just saw this pretty cool version they put together as a promo for their album release. Check it out below.

Röyksopp - Happy Up Here (Marching Band Version)



And check out this pretty cool (older) video.

Röyksopp - What Else Is There (feat. Karin Dreijer Andersson from The Knife)



Not as creepy as Karin Dreijer Andersson's last video, but it has its moments. The video also reminds me of elements from one of the coolest videos from 2007.

Bat for Lashes - What's A Girl To Do

What About Our Fathers?

Just giving Avani a shout out here for introducing me to The Knife. Have been listening to the below quite a bit for the last week. I'm sure its society that compels me to do so, rather than any evolutionary instinct.

(If someone can explain wtf this video is about, that would be much appreciated.)

Revelations

I found out recently that one of my favorite remixes of the past few years (DJ A-TRAK's remix of "Get 'Em High") is mostly from the Swedish brother and sister duo The Knife. And then I came across this recent article in the New Yorker on The Knife's new (nightmarish) endeavors.

Anyway, listen to the original song which the remix heavily sampled: The Knife - Heartbeats



And now listen to a pretty cool cover: Jose Gonzales - Heartbeats (The Knife Cover)



This really changes my perception of Swedes.
