Mission Control

YouTube via worldsfair. KORG MS20
"'Mission Control,' the first video off The Dandy Warhols' sixth full-length, ...Earth to the Dandy Warhols..., epitomizes what the band and the album are: innovative and smart, self-aware and informed, and with a strong -- but never generic -- pop sensibility.

Shot in grainy sepia tones in the Dandys' own Odditorium, the video, directed by Mike Bruce, finds the band in space, playing their instruments as they float in zero gravity, frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor singing authoritatively, transmitting the band's message to the world down from the Moon. It's clever and fun, playing both on historical events and future occurrences, totally stuck-in-your-head catchy, the perfect depiction of what the Dandy Warhols are.

"Bought this for the strange sounds it makes for recording. Used only a few times. D-Lab makes all sorts of items and this is hand-made and works on 2 9 volt batteries. Great shape and works perfectly. With the instruction sheet it originally came with."

Hammond L-103

"Enter the Hammond L-103 spinet organ and my first encounter with it's electromechanical..... issues. Special thanks to Oliver Chesler *also known as "The Horrorist and DJ Skinhead* for his perfect marriage of noise and grind with my novice video editing skills in "Strenth of Terror" and "Extreme Terror *111 Remix* as DJ Skinhead, and for "One Night In New York City" as The Horrorist. Mr. Chesler's high profile sound and tastefully vintage analog synthesizers do for me what Nascar does for rest of the rednecks in my part of the country. Another big special thanks to Peter Hopkins and Johnnie Shaffer... two major influences in my without whose contributions this project would have never made it off the ground... And to God...... Enjoy ;)"
