Trash Music. The new arising genre.

Description from Youtube

The new music video from OK Go, made in partnership with Chevrolet. OK Go set up over 1000 instruments over two miles of desert outside Los Angeles.

A Chevy Sonic was outfitted with retractable pneumatic arms designed to play the instruments, and the band recorded this version of Needing/Getting, singing as they played the instrument array with the car. The video took 4 months of preparation and 4 days of shooting and recording.

There are no ringers or stand-ins; Damian took stunt driving lessons. Each piano had the lowest octaves tuned to the same note so that they'd play the right note no matter where they were struck.

For more information and to download the studio version of the song for free, visit http://www.LetsDoThis.com/stunts and http://www.okgo.net.


Many thanks to Chevy for believing in and supporting such an insane and ambitious project, and to Gretsch for providing the guitars and amps.


Author's Perception

Not exaggerating, this is the best music video I have ever come upon.

"Publish Date 5 Feb, 10 Million Viewers in 5 days time?" Numbers don't lie beautiful readers.


Seriously, this is not your typical average music video. It's not a work of art only. It's a work that inspires, it's a work that touches the soul and change the world. Good job OK Go. You guys earn another respect from me.


Here is a video that made them literally famous.




Until next time.Adios dear readers.
