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.
War Photographer: the musical vikings
File this one under “I found it on YouTube” and it’s a little geeky. Vikings are geeky, right? It’s about 4 years old at this point and from a producer called Jason Forrest. Wikipedia says he’s know for experimental elecrtronica and breakcore. Oh dear. What’s happened to musical jargon. “Breakcore” sounds like a wrestler’s name […]
Manta’s Doctor Who
Not only is Adam Hills a great comedian who pops over to this blogger’s home town of Edinburgh for the comedy festival – he happens to have a shown down under called Spicks and Specks. We therefore have both Adam Hills and Spicks and Specks to thank for sharing Manta with the world and their […]
Music video: Daft Punk vs Tron vs Tron Legacy = Daft Tron
One word: Awesome This is Eclectic Method‘s Daft Tron music video. It’s awesome because it’s Daft Punk doing Tron. It’s Daft Punk doing Tron with clips from the original Tron and Tron Legacy mixed it. We’re not worthy! https://vimeo.com/13709012 But perhaps this Tron fanboy, this Daft Punk fanboy, is bias. What do you make of […]
Literal Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows trailer
It’s been a while since I’ve watched one of the once-popular literal video redux on YouTube. They’re clearly still going and I should have expected a Harry Potter one to appear. Step forward Tobuscus and their work on the Deathly Hallows trailer. Good job, guys, good job.
Game On: New The Guild music video
The Guild’s first music video was a total success. I was one of those geeks who rushed to buy a copy from iTunes and then watched as it rose in the charts and eventually beat all that mainstream pop crap into submission. I’d say The Guild’s new music video is even further removed from mainstream […]
Clever musical easter egg in Inception
The clever bit is the use of Edith Piaf‘s famous “Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien“. It’s best if I don’t explain it – it’s better with the reveal. Watch the video below and marvel. The close call is that the song was nearly dropped from Inception entirely because Marion Cotillard was cast as Mal Cobb; […]
Tron Girl
Got to say it; Tron Girl might be my favourite Barely Political music video. Just to set the record straight; Tron Girl is slyly timed – we’re all set and ready for the next Tron movie. Comic Con is apon us. Just the whisper of Tron will get us interest. Check out the Tron Girl […]
Pug enhanced Batman Theme Song
The Batman theme tune was put together by Neal Hefti in 1966. Who can forget the famous “Na na na na Na na na na BATMAN!”? I bet you’ve sung the song at least once. Go one, admit it… Don’t worry, you’re not alone, I have and many Geek Native readers have too. The good […]
Rambo: The Musical – “You Not Expendable”
Since the Conan the Barbarian musical was so popular I thought I’d share another one. We actually have Jon and Al Kaplan – the pair behind Conan the Barbarian: The Musical – to thank for the Rambo: The Musical – You Not Expendable too. As for the singing? Well. There’s Julia Nickson and Sylvester Stallone. […]
