Between running around at the Indyish POP Mess on Friday I was able to grab a few goodish bits of video. I’ve editted them together here to give you a taste. If you were there and shot any video or photos you’d share please get in touch!!

Here’s an interview with Beck at Austin City Limits festival which ended on the 28th. He references Nick Cave as an early influence, the first show he remembers seeing where he thought “I want to do that.” Which is neat in particular because Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds are here in Montreal this weekend [...]
As you may know, we put through a number of backend updates recently (and Elran is already working on incorporating lots more updates to the site from the open source commuity - better search and more.) One thing I tried out for the first time today is a new ability to simultaneously upload videos to [...]
The Bay Bridged has been doing some fun live blogging of the Treasure Island Music Festival going down around San Fransico this past weekend. They’ve got photos and blurbies on about every act, including current frenzy inducing indies who are also endearing and awesome; Okkervil River, and Fleet Foxes who so charmed Marilis when they [...]
My guest for today’s video interview adventure down at Grumpy’s emailed me yesterday to find out if she could bring cupcakes and friends.

Indyish got itself all joyfully tangled up in the new Montreal Film Festival where everyone makes a minute: with Elran doing the programming for the upload at the last minute to make it happen when someone else bailed or something, and yours truly trying to figure out a quick simple video to contribute, M60 has [...]
The other day I bought a purple ukulele and Elran and I wandered through old Montreal and China town just strumming along. The ukulele is a special little thing, it makes a pluky joyful noise and the 4 nylon strings make it pretty easy to play and if you’re smallish like me it fits it [...]
Weekly interviews in English from a home studio in Malaysia with all kinds of people, artists and otherwise, conducted by young, theatre innovators and politically conscious cool kids? Yes please! The project is called Fairly Current, it’s great fun, chill, informative, with a goofy theme song, and a fascinating perspective.
Teh and Fahmi’s faces would [...]
Here’s a story that’s been passing around the internet lately. File it under: creative ways to make music videos for close to nothing.
