Revolution:USA. "We, The People of the Rest of the World, will not get an official say in the appointment of the next Lunatic Representative of Special Interests in the coming US presidential election. And so UK audiovisual pioneers Coldcut have imagined their own way for the multifariously disenchanted American and diasporic publics to take part. Our trusted audiovisual duo are picking up right where they left off with their heroic “Re:volution” single, this time inviting the whole dissenting planet into the mix."

  • this is actually not that great. while i'm sure the cause of giving people of the world more say into what goes on in washington is worthy, coldcut's brand of "media terrorism" (along with cohorts ebn, jello biafra and others) seems to me like the left's answer to right-wing hysteria mongering. also, they're a bit stuck in the 80's. still, definitely worth a visit for video-collage aficionados and creative types. make your own!
