I had originally just been planning on adding a few of my favorite Portal related videos to the article I posted this past Saturday, but then I came across this awesome music video. After watching it, I just knew that I had to use it for this week’s installment of Monday Music. Both the video and the song work perfectly together capture the essence of what made Portal such a wonderful experiance. As an added bonus, you can download the MP3 for free from Tindeck if you follow the link at the bottom of this article. Enjoy!
I realized the other day it’s been awhile since I last posted anything nerdcore related, so I decided to rectify that today with this delightfully awesome Super Mario rap song. Simply titled “Epic Super Mario Land Rap,” this video is collaborative work between Duane Zwuala (vocals and instruments) and someone named “The_A2A24″ (video and editing). I don’t have any other info on the duo other then what was posted at the beginning of the video and my google search didn’t turn up much of anything. It’s a shame really since I would have liked to have known if they have any other videos or songs out there…
*Update: 03/06/10*
I received a note earlier this week from gentleman by the name of Anthony Ruybalid informing me that the artist for this song operates under the handle of “Action Adventure World.” He was also kind enough to send me a link for their official YouTube page. Hurray!
It’s also worth mention that Anthony runs a pretty spiffy website that focus’ on game related music. Check it out for yourself over at gamemusic4all.com
Considering how much time I’ve spent lately talking up the Bokurano manga, I figured it was time I posted some video from the anime too. Not only is the anime awesome, but it has an awesome opening song as well. Titled “Uninstall,” this hauntingly beautiful song by Chiaki Ishikawa will be stuck in your head for days.
Your welcome. XP
I do apologize for the poor quality of the video, but I felt the opening made a better impact when the translated lyrics were included. Make sure to watch it in 480p if possible, it cuts down on the squinting =^_^;;= Anyway, if you’d like to hear the full version of the song and/or oggle the beautiful Japanese lady who sings it, check out the original PV from Japan that I’ve so thoughtfully posted after the jump. (Because I’m awesome like that =^_-=). Enjoy!
As usual, I came across this video while hunting for a completely different song and video combination. Still, the editing is pretty good and I’m a shameless Powerpuff Girls fan. Yeah, I know. You think I’m totally lame, but I don’t care. Judge me all you want and I’ll just keep on loving both the original Cartoon Network version of PPG and the loli-tastic Japanese version too! Oh, and Tenacious D is also occasionally awesome as well XD
I originally had some rocking hardcore metal scheduled for today, but then I remembered that Valentine’s Day is this weekend. Luckilyfor me, I stumbled across this wonderful Touhou Project PV while trying to find a suitable replacement. I’ve absolutely fallen in love with this song and, in my mind, it’s the perfect fit for a holiday that can be just as much about simply being there for the people who are important to you as it js about romance .
Of course the downside of all this is that I spent the rest of the day watching Touhou Project videos on YouTube and I’m now officially addicted. I’m maybe a few years behind the curve on this one, but what the hell, it’s never to late to become a fan of something awesome. Don’t be surprised if some other Touhou Project videos wind up on here in the coming months =^_-=
