Glorious retro carnage: Wyld File's hallucinogenic video for Beck's 'Bad Cartridge'
Just officially uploaded by Audio Dregs co-founder Eric Mast (in case you missed it on, say, the early video UMD), the video for Paza's 8-bit remix of Beck's 'E-Pro' -- a project Mast took on as Wyld File, his collaborative company with art collective Paper Rad.
Mast, more commonly known by his pseudonym E*Rock, is the brother of Evan Mast, most recognizable as the marginally less hirsute half of Ratatat and 100% of Offworld (and Flashbang) favorite E*vax.
For more excellent -- but infinitely less games-ey -- Friday morning watching, see E*Rock's video for Ratatat's Cherry and those at the Ratatat site linked above. Or, more appropriately, 'Kiptok's fan-video below for Ratatat's Imperials, which interprets the song's brilliant over/under-water hook via glitched-up footage of Ecco, Sonic and Mario.

The best part of the Beck video is that it accurately captures the COMPLETELY EFFING INSANE logic of old eight bit video games. Remember Milon's Secret Castle? Where you were a tiny guy in blue pajamas trying to kill things with bubbles, and then you fell into a well and you had to use the hammer on the wall and then there was...was a thing...where...
Really, it's a wonder we didn't all start doing drugs in middle school.
When you're exposed to such imagery, you don't need recreational drugs to enhance your well-being.
Paper Rad are completely f'ing, well, RAD!!! I recommend that you all go check out their stuff. This is fairly tame compared to some of the videos I've seen. 8bit psychedelia is much more mind-melting that conventional psychedelia, IMHO, but I would assume that there is a pretty marked generation gap in this opinion on either side of my age demographic.

Wyld File's haucinogenic is fantastic with a fast pace that I think everyone will enjoy. This is a type game we all grew up with....well I really never did grow up so..Play hard and fast. Muscle Cars
Amazing arcades, excatly like in the 80 ties when we were playing the good old Classic Games all day :)

Paper Rad is outrageously RAD. I intend on checking out the rest of their stuff. The 8bit psychedelia videos sound really cool. Thanks guys I look forward to seeing more. Jasper Hotels | Kamloops Hotels
Hi Brandon,
Its like back to the old time where the games is about who has the most scores. But retro isn't that bad, have so many friends who plays retro carnage and enjoying themselves.
Thanks a ton!

Paper Rap insists the loosely based value system "Dogman 99" consisting of the rules "no Wacom tablet, no scanning, pure RGB colors only, only fake tweening, as many alpha tricks as possible" was recently fully realized during a project with E*Rock while making a video for Beck.

Great study, but I think it is not news to anyone. We would have a much better world with great oppurtunities. cheap auto insurance
