Been thinking about this for a while, what video sections have you seen that were so well matched to the music that you thought 'this should be the video for this song'?
So, stand out section matched to a stand out song.....
I'll start with the obvious one - Hoffmans final slo mo section on Headfirst/Fugazi Blueprint.
And
Jay miron on Madd Matt/Tragically Hip On The Verge. Love that one :daumenhoch:
I've stuck it here in midschool just because it seems right to do so. The age of the video camera and all that. ;)
-
The start of Dirty Deeds, "I am Iron Man" as Castillio (maybe) does a big hand rail.
-
i know this should only be a section
but i think PROPS 10 :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch: had great music for pretty much every section, thats the video that used to get me fired up more than any other
i really want to get it on DVD, but dont know if u can?
-
but i think PROPS 10
Scott Malyon, wallride to lookback, so good

The whole 'Everlong' section on Dorkin' 10.
The hairs on my arms stand up every time.

Mike Escamilla :daumenhoch:
His section on Dirty Deeds is RAD, riding to 'Paint it Black' by the Rolling Stones - LEGEND!!
-
subversion, i had totally forgotten about "paint it black" being on there
that whole section rules
im going to have to try and get a copy now lol
-
Mike Escamilla :daumenhoch:
Knew it had a load of ll's in it ;)
Dirty Deeds is my favourite vid ever
-
Yeah all we need now is the Dave Parrick DVD boxset :daumenhoch:
-
I need a little help on this one fella's as i wasn't riding for alot of this era, but i still followed bmx and had stacks of vids alot of them very homemadish if you like (I know they were) i just cant remember the name.
Rolling Stones, You cant always Get what you need
It was a crash section at the very end of the vid the lyrics are just so fitting to whats going on.
i.e I need this trick but i just cant nail it. The songs a real builder i love the beginning of it.
-
Just had a flashback was it KOC ?

Sounds like one of Jon Pratt's vids Spacial Awareness i think.
...or the other one Zero Tolerance, both brilliant vids.
-
Yep i would never of came up with those names but now you say them pretty sure i had both. KOC came to mind because i recall alot of southsea footage.
Most my vids were copies so i just threw em in the machine no labels or owt on em.
-
The Who`s my Generation in Dorkin 3 i think with the cinnie film footage at the old skate park.
When I here the song no matter where I think back to that section..

Crash section of the S&M vid 44 something. A punk/rock cover of ABBAs SOS. :daumenhoch:
Even if I hear the real ABBA version of SOS all I can think of is some of the crashes, like when Trainer mached his knee at the Arizona Hoffman comp and he rolled down the dirt landing holding his leg
-
Not familiar with cut off dates for old mid etc but Aggroman approx 90 i think ,when Hoffman rides his ramp in the suit doing all the variations the music is synched to his variations like if he does a no footed cancan to no footer there's a drum beat or symbol in synch with when he kicks his legs out.
I might be way off the mark but i think it may have been steve swopes band playing the track.

I think it was Eddie Romans band, but I could be wrong
-
No I think your right Alex used to play under the decks of the ramp i believe.
-
whilst we are on about vids a little hijack
if anyone has either of these to sell much love would come your way.

James Shepherd's section in Trash to the Fu-Schnickens - a True Fuschnick 8)

Oh yeah, both Ride On and Dorkin' came out with Biohazard's 'Wrong Side of the Tracks' at the same time and both of 'em did it justice

To be honest, I've never really followed flatland, but that was the first time I'd seen Osicka and the first time that flatland had truly impressed me (not dissing flatlanders by any means and I appreciate their talents, just that I never got into it). I just found that section quite mesmerising. The way he rode his bike was like a pendulum hypnotising me.
-
Yeah, I agree. I've never followed flat closely, but I'm completely impressed by it all.
