Just thought I’d repost Thrillinocuous, my mashup of LCD Soundsystem’s “Get Innocuous” and Michael Jackson RIP’s “Thriller”, in honour of the untimely death of LCD Soundsystem. May they rest in peace.

Not painted a stroke in 16 years since my GCSE Art teacher tossed me an off-hand C and “accidentally” threw away 2 years of hard work after the final exhibition. Bastard. Hope the fixative did for him. So it took an iPhone to get me to have another go and this is it.
Turns out Brushes is pretty damn good fun and highly, dangeously addictive. But what’s really slick is that it records everything you do into a .brushes file on the iPhone, which the Brushes Viewer OS X app can then use to recreate all your fingering at a much higher res.
It can even make quicktimes of the process, but bear with me – need to sign up for Vimeo I think. There are lots of far more able people than me at it over at Flickr too.
PS. The girl did it.

It may not be too clear here (and I couldn’t find the titles anywhere on YouTube), but this has to be the most mainstream example of a Flash 3-style shape tween I’ve ever seen. It matches right down to the nasty colour choices and dodgy outlines. At least it’s eased.
God alone knows how this ever came to be, but looking at the rest of the film’s frankly terrible titling…
…when the tween came up after 5 minutes nothing would’ve surprised me. Looks like they just used the default settings in some dodgy old 90s video titling package for the names, so maybe shape tweens were a step up for the main title.

I often have a tune going round in my head that morphs into another tune unexpectedly, and sometimes – just sometimes – those two tunes are a perfect fit. Had these two going round and round for a while and finally got round to mashing them up tonight, thanks to the breathtakingly flexible Ableton Live.
So here’s Thrillinnocuous (right click + save), a mashup of LCD Soundsystem’s “Get Innocuous” and Jacko’s “Thriller”, for your delectation and delight.

Sorry, it just came to me. Can’t think of any more, Blondie notwithstanding. Might get some businesscards done with different options ticked…

Given that the first one was a ridiculous runaway success, LOVE have just let loose from the gate the second stage of the mighty bucking internet bronco that is Dr Marten’s THE BRIEF. Create your own designs for their iconic boots by drawing, painting and spraying on them, adding your own pictures and all sorts of stuff like that. It’s dead good. Here’s my effort. It’s a hoof, in case you can’t tell. Could even be cloven for all I know. Awful design too, but then I should really be working. Hey, here’s an idea – why not have a go yourself?! You can even stick it on your blog, on your facebook and then get it tattooed on your own face if you like, so other people can vote your shitty hoof thing up the tables and you can eventually be some sort of a winner!
[I didn't do the flash, by the way, but it's damn good all the same]
