Kutiman remixes YouTube on Thru-You
Posted by Régis Gaidot | Filed under Discovery, fun
Kutiman, the masterful funk musician and producer, outdoes himself by creating Thru-You: multiple YouTube clips edited into slick mega-mashups. They’re not just patchwork assemblages, they’re sample-based original creations that coud hold their own on anyone’s album… Thru-You is an Internet album of music videos completely made out of remixed YouTube footage. It’s a work of level genius!

Youtube Live, the live show internet
Posted by Régis Gaidot | Filed under Events, fun
I’ve watched the live streaming for YouTube Live show and it was awesome. For those who don’t know what YouTube Live is “Part concert, part variety show and part party, the event will bring to life many of the amazing videos and talent that YouTube viewers have already made popular.”
Youtube Live is incredible, not only because of the massive amount of entertainment packed into such a short amount of time, the awesome performances of celebrities, but also because of the history that we have witnessed Live. Beardyman performed one of the greatest beat boxing performances ever, it was one of the coolest segments of the event for me.
DJ Mike Relm moved the audience several times with some very cool live made DJ remixes.
Myers contributed to the event by performing one of the best breakdance. The 5 young women that started a singing career from posting their videos on youtube Marie Digby, Lisa Lavie, Mia Rose, Dondria, Esmee Dentres are presented to us followed by a performance of Julia Nunes.
SF Parkour and Soulja boy tell’em made some good performances worth mentioning as well. Akon ended the event with an awesome performance and a some crowd surfing while singing his latest song “Right Now”.
So after all the part event, part party was very entertaining. Hopefully we will see more and more Youtube Live events.
