Afternoon Music Video - Kenneth Anger influences Tommy O'Haver's video for Matthew Dear's "Her Fantasy"

It's certainly not unheard of to use Kenneth Anger's Magick Lantern Cycle as an influence on a music video, but hell, it works so damn well that I'm surprised it's not used all the time.  In this video for Dear's electronic track, the influence is front and center, so much that you can basically play "spot the shot-for-shot recreation."

Steven Reed gives you the most despressing cooking tips

The internet is a fickle thing.  A couple of years ago, there was a brief moment of fame awarded to Steven Reed, a Weber State University student who had a segment on the university news program about cooking.   But Reed's glory was short-lived, and I'm puzzled as to why, as his segments are internet gold, as the worst recipes of "A Man, A Plan, A Can" come to life in the form of the most depressing host imaginable.  Intermittent, upbeat music randomly appears in the background.  It's... something.

Afternoon Music Video: THEESatisfaction - "Queens"

Whoever came up with the term "PBR&B" deserves a punch in the nose, but there's no question that this song is a near-perfect chill-out groove experience.  May the parties you attend this weekend be one tenth as cool as the one depicted in  this video.

Morning Music Video - Phenomenal Handclap Band's psychedlic B&W video for "Let the Right One In"

The NYC-based band has been around since 2009 and has recently toured with Bryan Ferry, but I wish they were bigger than they are -- they've got a great sound, described as "psychedelic soul," which is as good as a description as any.  And the video for one of their best tracks shows that you don't need flashy colors to go all freaky.  (Despite the title, do not expect androgynous vampires.)

Watch This Vote - Fred Karger's "Sexy Frisbee" Campaign Ad

I like Fred Karger, the would-be Republican presidential candidate who failed to make much headway into the 2012 election.  Mostly because he gives away frisbees, and his reign would involve a lot of beach parties.
