Music Video Asia
Pop idols, punk rockers, thuggy MCs, shoe-gazers; they're all here in MUSIC VIDEO ASIA and better yet, the music is GOOD.
From the Yeah Yeah Yeahs to Korea's 3rd Line Butterfly, this year's program brings together the best and bravest sounds from the United States and Asia, exploring the fascinating intersection of pop culture, style and music flowing from here across the Pacific. These twenty-one music videos are a soundtrack to a thriving Asian underground music scene, and also offer some truly genius/madness visual visions, from floating heads to stuffed bears wearing sinister hockey masks.
Highlights include: two new videos from Japanese pop genius Cube Juice, phone smashing courtesy of Bay Area punkers Clarendon Hills, an MC showdown between Jin (USA), Machi (Taiwan) and Rhymester (Japan), and Korea's best indie-rock band, Jawoorim.
