I wasn’t aware of the Japanese band androp before today. Now I’m impressed. I liked their music, but this post is about their music video. The band’s creative team came up with the idea of using real cameras, some 250 Canon 60D DSLRs along with their flash unites to create the effects for a video. […]
Geeky music videos
Welcome to the Music category, where we turn up the volume on the sounds of geek culture. This is your destination for epic gaming soundtracks, synthwave scores, chiptune artists, and bands whose lyrics are inspired by our favourite fandoms. We celebrate the music that provides the backdrop to our adventures, from the sweeping orchestrations of a fantasy epic to the pulsing beats of a cyberpunk future.
We have a special appreciation for the visual side of music, and this section is always on the lookout for clever, creative, and unapologetically geeky music videos. If a song tells a story or an artist has a unique vision, you'll likely find their videos featured here. Tune in and discover your next geek anthem.
Batman: The Animated Series as a metal mashup
I’m not sure where to start on this one! Let’s start with the rather awesome music from Batman: the animated series. Let’s turn that into some geeky and slightly cheesy metal with plenty of power. Okay. Let’s combine that with some computer game inspired music video madness. Let’s make sure the band, Powerglove, play along […]
Harry Potter metal mashup
Cast your mind back to the middle of July when Geek Native featured an impressive Star Wars metal mashup. Good, wasn’t it? The rather talented 331Erock has succumb to YouTube fanbase pressure and put together another mashup. This time… it’s Harry Potter. The timing was nearly perfect. What’s impressive is that the video rocketed past […]
Like a Boss!
This is a parody but I’m not sure what the original is. The full title of the video is “Like a Boss! Slim Thug Parody Music Video” so, um, there’s a band called Slim Thug? I nearly didn’t even bother checking this video out as I was sure this would not be music that appealed […]
It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Fish-Men
Okay, this is a musical Cthulhu inspired remake of “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas“. There’s clearly a mystery afoot and people with damage to their san totals. I’ve tracked this down to the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society who have been operating in an alternative universe since 1984. That makes a lot of […]
Star Wars metal mashup
This musical mashup from 331Erock is worth four minutes of your time. You’ll pick out more than one of your Star Wars favourites here and so the trick isn’t just the “metalification” of Star Wars but the blending too. Enjoy.
I am the Doctor – a fan made, mash up of a remote Orchestra
I’ll admit I was interested in the concept of a Doctor Who Fan Orchestra when I heard of the project. I have no musical talent, you understand, none what so ever – but I knew the Who community was strong and recent Doctor Who seasons have had some fantastic music. It got even more geeky; […]
The Dark Side – Come to the Dark Side, we have dubstep
Something, something, Dark Side – one of the best lines from Family Guy ever. What else could you do with the dreaded words “Dark Side”? What about creating a rather funky dubstep, combining it with a mashup of clips, pinning it up at YouTube and pointing a whole bunch of geeks at it. Yeah. That […]
The Browncoat Anthem – Firefly rap
It’s a sign of a popular TV show – a very popular TV show – that the fans are still contributing to the community years after the show was cancelled. This rap has the lyrics “Curse you Fox” in it. It also has the lyrics “.. at least we got Serenity” so I think it […]
Harry Potter: I’m a Hufflepuff. We R Slytherins.
It’s Harry Potter fever all over again. The premier shows today in London. Or Loondoom as I like to call it. Online retailer Play.com will be streaming live from the red carpet via their Facebook page and the internet is madly busy making viral candidate videos that ooze Harry Potter. A starter for ten is […]
