This series of photographs by Perttu Saksa is pretty disturbing. He photographed old weathered down stuffed apes... and that's it : check the pictures on his website!

[Video] Webhelp Commercial

Now this is a very funny and well executed ad. If you don't understand French I'll break it down for you. A couple are riding their tandem bicycle when they hit a rough patch. The man says "Watch out Stepha-"(as in Stephanie) and as you can figure out it's not the woman's name. She asks him "How you did call you me?" while the man is looking for a way to get out of this predicament, a woman pops up from the ground and whispers some unintelligible advice. As the woman on the bike is about to turn around to ask him again "how did you call me?", the man is talking aggressively to "Stephanie" on the phone, a co-worker of his and he tells her that they'll discuss about the issue on Monday. The woman on the bike drops her question from there. As they continue to bike, the man adds "Stephanie is driving me crazy, she calls me at every little problem". Webhelp is a company specializing in client consultations. As the couple bike off, it appears in text "Good advice can save a relationship".

[Video] This Is How We DEW: Anthem

Here's Mountain Dew's latest commercial featuring Lil Wayne, Mac Miller, Paul Rodriguez as well as Jason Aldean (country singer) and Dale Earnhardt Jr (Nascar driver) and others. Is the ad noteworthy? Barely. Besides the fact that this is most probably the first time I've seen a soft drink promoting their brand with "urban" and "country" stars in one ad. Will it help sell Mountain Dew in the short run? Most probably. Does the ad seem genuine? Nope.

[Music Video] Flux Pavilion - Daydreamer (ft. Example)

[Video] "Etoiles" by Mercedes-Benz

Mercedes-Benz have released a short one minute movie promoting their brand. The ad is scored by french electronic producer Kavinsky and directed by Ludovic Houplain who did the awesome short animated film Logorama. "Etoiles" translates into "stars" in english and I'm not really sure what was the goal of Mercedes-Benz behind this project. Promote a younger, edgier company image to their clientele or is it just a video they hope the younger people will remember when they grow up to buy their shiny new Benz. Anyways, here it is. 

Houplain's Logorama is so dope we'll put it on this post as well.

[Video] Charlie Sheen Bavaria Lemon Ad

Charlie Sheen has proven in the last couple of months to have the ability to make good commercials. This is another one of them, poking fun at his alcoholism. Obviously this ad won't air in the United States but it will air in the awesome country of the Netherlands.

[Video] Turntable Rider - Mix Music By Riding

Now I'm skeptical if this is legit or not but other indications are telling me that this is not a hoax so I'll go with it. The "Turntable Rider" by Cogoo suggests that they've built a bmx bike that allows you to mix music while performing tricks. The harder the tricks, the better the mix. The bike will be on display at the 2012 Kaikoo Popwave festival. Check it out!

The making of:

[Music] Gramatik - #digitalfreedom

Don't understand how this managed to slip under our watch but Gramatik released a free six track EP entitled #digitalfreedom last week and it's dope. He wants to raise more awareness against internet censorship laws like ACTA, SOPA, and PIPA or in his exact words :

"FUCK ACTA, SOPA, PIPA and any bill that wants to give corporations the power to regulate and censor the internet, especially if those same corporations built their empires solely on copyright infringement!"

Gramatik ventures into a more electronic and dubstep sound in this EP which is different from his usual hip hop instrumental inspired style.

Macklemore's Victory Lap produced by Ryan Leslie is the complete opposite of a band we've posted earlier today, Death Grips. It's extremely easy to listen to and appeals to a large crowd.  The track was featured on the 2012 XXL Freshman Mixtape.

Thanks to @jclaniel for the heads up.

[Music Video] Feist - Bittersweet Melodies

Feist's latest video features the works of argentinian photographer Irina Werning "Back to the Future" series which we've posted on a couple of occasions before. The video is just a slideshow of Irina's work. I respect the fact that she used Irina's work for the entirety of the video or that she didn't try to recreate the concept.

[Music] Death Grips - I've Seen Footage

Most probably Death Grips' "friendliest" sound ever. I've seen Footage is from their upcoming "The Money Store" album which drops on April 24th.

[Music Video] Bassnectar ft. Lupe Fiasco - Vava Voom

Here's the music video for Bassnectar and Lupe Fiasco's track Vava Voom.

Bassnectar's latest album is available for purchase on his website as of today.
