So hey it's Woodkid and I'm shopping today at Amoeba Records for What's in My Bag.
I went for 'Dr. Strangelove' by Kubrick. One of my favorite directors.
I just like that they're re-editing everything in blu-rays now so it's like
I'm gonna see that with new eyes.
Because I think I saw that film a while ago and I didn't really get it at the time so
it's a good choice I think.
I can no longer sit back and allow
communist infiltration
communist indoctrination
communist subversion
and the international communist conspiracy
to sap and impurify
all of our precious bodily fluids.
Music-wise, I just bought the new John Legend record, 'Love in the Future.'
Produced by Kanye and I've been working on that project with John.
Creative directing his new campaign for his new videos.
He's just the sweetest guy ever and his album is bonkers. It's really good.
I just love that John has always been very consistent in his work.
And just the collaboration with Kanye is very interesting on this record.
The song 'Made to Love' is definitely my favorite
and I'm very proud of the video we did for that with the director Daniel Sannwald.
Went for 'Metropolis,' one of my big, big influences.
On the second video I did 'Run Boy Run' for the project, I was very influenced by
the atmosphere of the city and how
the city was defining the adult world in my work.
This is a great, great film. Of course it's a classic.
I took some Ligeti music. I was mentioning Kubrick earlier
I discovered Ligeti, of course, when I saw 2001 for the first time.
Kubrick was one of the first ones to use Ligeti in a movie and everyone was shocked at the time
because musically it's so different and so contemporary.
And then I started to listen to his music at the same time I was starting to listen to repetitive music
like Reich or Glass.
And Ligeti has a very, very interesting way of using choirs.
It's actually not a choir piece. I couldn't find a choir piece from Ligeti but
his work is definitely somewhere else in space.
'Twixt' that I haven't seen. I'm very interested in Coppola's latest work
especially since he directed 'Tetro' with Vincent Gallo.
And I really love his approach on digital.
So basically Coppola is going back on a digital approach of cinema right now
almost like experimental, almost like he's being a student again.
And I've shot with Elle Fanning before. I just love her so much.
So I think I should have seen that before already.
You're looking at my teeth.
No I'm not, I just didn't know where you came from.
I'm very self-conscious about my buck teeth.
Show me.
Your teeth are fine, it's those braces.
And I finally got 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' by Simon and Garfunkel
just because it's one of the records that my dad was listening all the time.
It's a very emotional record for me.
And I love the cover because it looks like this guy is this guy's mustache.
Was that good?
Yeah.
Ok.
