RadarMusicVideos.com - new video marketplace for bands and directors
their logo's not the only thing that's received a (welcome) upgrade - caroline & co. have launched something much more ambitious: a site that promises to connect bands and videomakers by calls for pitches on tracks with budgets. (specifics are provided to those who sign up to as radar members.)
judging by a first look around, they might be onto something. interesting terms of agreement for participating in pitches, including recommendations on retaining rights and getting paid, plus the promise of a radar blacklist of bands & directors who don't play by the rules.

Rage!
in searching for a new music video my partner and I made for the band spoon, I became aware of Rage... a popular australian music video channel that will apparently broadcast anything you send them...
the channel is late night, features no vj's... back to back videos... what more could we as music video directors ask for from a broadcast outlet?!
read more about them on wikipedia
and here's the official rage website
here's a sample playlist from february 16th, 2008 when our video actually first screened... 5am on a saturday morning... and the ONE time it screened, some fan recorded it and posted it to youtube already... amazing!
I'll post the url to the high-res video next, but this whole thing was an interesting discovery... watching "viral" happen in realtime... and also noting how awesome this rage program is... apparently the longest running music video show ever produced (since the demise of sooooooul train).

Animal Collective - Taste - take away shows
#82.1 - ANIMAL COLLECTIVE - Taste
although all the sound is recorded live, I would still consider this a music video over a live recording since it has sound and video edited from multiple takes. Either way Animal Collective is amazing.
Billy Preston "My Sweet Lord" on "The Larry Kane Show"
Billy Preston tackles song George Harrison wrote for him that later got George sued, on a little local Texas Rock and Roll TV Show (gotta love that split-screen effect).
From the Wikipedia: "Following the song's release, musical similarities between "My Sweet Lord" and The Chiffons' hit "He's So Fine" led to a lengthy legal battle over the rights to the composition. Billboard magazine, in an article dated 6 March 1971, stated that Harrison's royalty payments from the recording had been halted worldwide. Harrison stated that he was inspired to write "My Sweet Lord" after hearing the Edwin Hawkins Singers' "Oh Happy Day"."
