5) Quadron “Hey Love”
Quadron’s pleasant “Hey Love” kicks off this week’s list and it doesn’t set the tone for the rest of the list at all. Nice juxtaposition though, maybe? The performance driven video is fun and enjoyable as it focuses on a number of different dance routines, front woman Coco Maja Hastrup Karshøj looks great too.
4) Kingsley Flood “Sun Gonna Lemme Shine”
Directed by Chris Cannucciari
Our Editor-In-Chief Ricky D brought this music video to my attention this week and what a great, little video it is too. “Sun Gonna Lemme Shine” consists of a kid trying to fit in until all the other kids decided to adopt his uniques style instead. It’s crazy cute and the kid’s expressions are all spot on.
3)Palma Violets “We Found Love”
This is an awesome party video primarily filmed with a head-mounted camera to further enhance the awesome visuals.

Clara Cannucciari is 93 years old and knows her way around the kitchen – and how to make cost-effective meals. Her skills, which she learned from her mother during the Great Depression, are coming in handy given cutbacks, layoffs and the nation’s overall recession. Christopher Cannucciari launched the first three episodes online in summer 2007, without a distributor. "As a filmmaker, I am excited to distribute independently,” he said. “Technology has finally reached a place that makes distribution costs so minimal that the artist can self-distribute and retain the rights of their works."...

Great Depression Cooking features the spry, still-brown-haired-90-something-year-old Clara cooking- pasta with peas, egg drop soup, cooked bread, and more, all while recounting brief snippets of her memories of the Great Depression. Shot by her grandson, Christopher Cannucciari (the Grandson/Grandmother duo is a common ingredient in online cooking shows) the results are surprisingly subtle. Originally released in 2007, the web series is still a reminder of the dark undertones of our own unruly present, but gives way to a lightness of blue-collar food porn served up by a host who knows no pretension. Clara’s recollections include neighborhood whiskey brewing, which led to the ‘smell of yeast all over the town,’ and cooking carb-heavy (pasta, potatoes) because that’s what they could afford, but for the most part her anecdotes about the depression are very brief: ‘The depressions (sic) was very bad…We always had potatoes ‘cause that’s what we could afford…...
