Tunak Tunak Tan

Especially for incog neato this Friday's musical link features the internet phenomenon that is tunak tunak tan. I'm not totally sure how I hadn't heard this before, it seems to have done the rounds, you were all too busy sending me more point and click game links weren't you? Anyway now I'm up to speed, as well as the real audio performance, I've found this surreal flash version, and a colourful flash version.

Jamez Bond (Again)

Sorry, I'm in a mood to reminisce, but this is the last of the repeats, and how can you not love jamez bond? You'll try to sing-a-long, even though it's nigh on impossible, and you'll still find yourself humming along to it a month from now. It's been 2 years since this first entered my life and I still revisit it at least every couple of months.

Hatt Baby

Well it's taken until post 1006, but we have ourselves the first lazylaces repeat, it's all well worth it though as this is one of my most favourite internet things ever (and that really is about the most accurate description for this you can hope for). Ladies and Gentlemen I ask you to be silent in a kind of hushed awe, and bow down before, the wonder that is hatt baby. An animation that transcends the earthly constraints of such questions as "what?", "why?", and "huh?".

Update: Damn it! This has reminded me of another classic that I have to see again (see above) - but this is the last of the repeats until just after post 2000 I promise.

Plantage

A very samorost-esque (which is a very good thing) music video from the same design team - the only bad thing is you can't interact with it, even though you really want to. Please let there be a Samorost II soon, please [thanks LD].

Diwali

OK, I'm very late for Diwali, but what can I say? I've been kind of busy and it took me over a week to come down from the sugar rush induced by stuffing myself with Indian sweets. I can't pretend I grasp anything beyond the basic concept of Diwali, but that's still pretty good going for a white English guy, and I do know the sweets are fantastic, this e-card has a very cool firework lighting thing and gets huge bonus points for the most eclectic choice of languages I've seen (English, Hindi and Tamil, among others), and most importantly I wish all my Indian friends, and friends with Indian roots, well at this festive time. Happy Diwali.

Juicy Panic

Bizarre techno tunes remixed by a reindeer and an evil cat on digital turntables and Apple Macs with psychedelic background animations. Quite possibly this on drugs, or maybe I am, I certainly felt like I should be after watching through this a couple of times. The really worrying thing is when you realise that it's catchy and it's lodged itself in your head. Well if I'm going to go slightly mad for the whole of Tuesday so can you. Enjoy. Wibble.

At some point soon I'm planning to add an RSS feed for the site (great idea Ryan) so this guide on how get ASP to produce an RSS feed should come in handy. Syndicate lazylaces soon.

Spider

Neat little, flash animated, mouse chasing, spider. Neat that is unless you don't like spiders in which case I wouldn't recommend it and you'll be reaching for the flash animated glass and bit of paper, preferably with a flash animated partner to escort it off the premises for you. Or if you have no Buddist leanings, a flash animated slipper *squish* [neat work by onemotion].

Snow Patrol

After a week off the Friday musical interlude returns with one of my favourite bands of the moment, snow patrol. These guys are on heavy rotation on the lazylaces music systems. I'm not totally sure how well known they are outside outside the UK, but the music sampler at the top of their site for the new album is a great way to acquaint yourself witheir addictive sounds.

Northern B**tard/Southern Fairy?

Ok, this quiz will make no sense at all if you're from outside the UK, it's debatable if it makes any sense at all, but I enjoyed myself. Turns out I'm a confirmed Southern Fairy:

"Alwight, guvnor? For you are a Southern Fairy. Thank God you didn't turn out to be one of those northern gits, eh? Too many of them around for anyone's liking. And, don't even get us started on the Scots. Celebrate down your local bar with a cool pint of lager. That costs £3.00."

I'm so proud. Where do they find lager that cheap though?
