My favourite video anarchists at Wreck & Salvage have started the Mix & Match remix/mashup Group on Vimeo.
They’ve started by posting a track by Kevin Bewersdorf: “I’m Bruce Willis”. Great track – funny stuff – full of lines referencing Die Hard in silly ways.
“You can’t stop me / Roof of Nakatomi / People say they know me but those people don’t know me
I roll up in that limo / Kill all of them Euros
In that ventilation shaft shoot out that window…
I’m Bruce and yer nothin’!”
So I thought I’d get the ball rolling this morning, and knocked something up in 45 mins before breakfast – laying the track down over some scenes of Bruce singing in Moonlighting. Some tweaking, but serendipity did the rest.
You can watch it at:

And have a go yourselves. Mix anything. Or just post about other people’s work. I just posted links to two exceptional remixes about war that I saw today:
Robert Croma’s “Rules of Engagement”
and Loiez’s “Shame”
