Talk about fast turnaround! Just a couple weeks ago, Mr. Mount sent out a myspazz bulletin asking for a brunette to come and star in the music video for "Radio Ladio" shooting on November 29th. Looks like they found one:
metronomy - radio ladio

Joe has a disclaimer for the celluloid:
"Hello Folks, My manager has snuck up the video we made for Radio Ladio (directed by the wonderful Daniel Brereton). I'm just warning you it's pretty creepy, we got up on a day off from the bloc party tour and were all really unwell...that's why I look like Hulk and Oscar looks like death itself. Anyway, i hope you enjoy it. joseph"
Just a few seconds into viewing and I wanna turn Oompa Loompa too!
And note I say quick turnaround because Dev shot a Lightspeed Champion music video directed by the ever-enjoyable Saam the day before I arrived in London and was supposed to get it back within a few days. Where is it?
Since everybody and their brother is already offering "Radio Ladio" and I included it in my October podcast and you should buy it, I thought to change it up and hit you with his best Britney:
"Toxic" (Britney Spears cover) - Metronomy MP3
Arya equated it to what "Toxic" would sound like if Beirut covered it (only a bit more electronic I must add).
I have local electro goddess Michele (with one "L") Wylen to thank for passing along this track. Remember when Scots Travis covered Britney's "Baby One More Time" and then people covered Travis' cover? Well, Michele has covered Metronomy's cover - the MP3 of which you can download ala LocalCut.com.
Go to Metronomy's myspazz for a live rendition of "Heartbreaker" which isn't a Pat Benatar or Mariah Carey cover, but just as delicious! And remember I saw him and his Food Groups in Glasgow just a week ago-ish.
