Brooklyn Brat Pack Mashup
What does one long weekend and the best rooftop in Williamsburg get you? A summer kickoff music video to end all. A tribute to a tribute, inspired by the Youtube bratpack mashup video set to the tune of Phoenix’s Lisztomania, the soon to be omnipresent (if not already) summer jam.
The Original Mashup
I think director Ian Parker explained the reasoning behind the tribute to the tribute best: We did it for the summer, for friends, sunsets, and social propaganda experiments, for the sake of global cultural education. and pop music.
Sweeet! Love comparing the two. They sure nailed the ali sheedy freakout. Awesome.
this guy is a genius! he is also a great climber and fun to hug!
‘avoidantconsumer’ here – the one who made the original video.. LOVE the tribute. omg, you guys are amazing.
Yesterday, I had this vision of a moderately crowded subway car where someone had a boombox going. First, everyone kind of looked annoyed when they stepped on, but when the doors slid closed, they got up and started dancing–the hipsters, the business suit crowd, the Park Slope moms, the homeless people, etc. I’d like to see that one realized. I love these two videos.
I’m at work at 6AM and the first thing I do now is play this video. It puts in a great frame of mind and sets the tone for the day. I rate this a “G” for grrrrrrrrrreat!.
thanks

On 18 June 2009 Phoenix played Williamsburg – and played Lisztomania to our rooftop hipsters. A circle is complete.
