Space invaders extreme: Hexstatic/Kris Menace arcade mashup video

Thought you were only getting one dose of invaded music videos this week, didn't you? Sorry to disappoint: above is the latest from LCD Soundsystem/Air/Moby remixer Kris Menace and Ninja Tune videoholics Hexstatic, doing the hyper-color arcade mashup 'Invader'.

The kids and their music today. What was wrong with ole Frankie Sinatra? Now there was music, not all this boingy boingy razzamatazz.

Sampology mixed this in his VJ/turntablist set at the GameOn exhibition here. Gotta check out his Pong beat juggle at the start. (1:15 for the impatient)

There is a Space Invaders Remix CD out in Japan:

You'll get more hits on google if you try searching for the artist and/song titles.

After reading the above article and noting the date it was written, it seems Brandon Boyer is a bit behind the underground music/music video powercurve himself.
- The above video I saw on BBC pirate TV, a whole year before this article was even posted.
- I'm not impressed not seeing even a single ode to the Ninjatune label where Hexstatic does his best work.
- Tell me what Kris Menace's most popular work(s) is(are), and you'll renew my faith.

Sorry to burst your bubble Brandon, but your article above reeks of self-satisfaction. Do a better job keeping your finger on the pulse of modern underground music and videos.
