With The Bicycle Film Festival celebrating its 10th year on June 16th-June 20th, Discosalt is celebrating the Bicycle all week long. Kicking things off here with a tribute to some of our favorite music videos with bicycles. Check them out below and enjoy! More to come….
The Go Team: For My Funeral
Feel good Bike dancing in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Nada Surf: Whose Authority
Michael C. Maronna, (aka. the elder Pete from The Adventures Of Pete and Pete) sticks it to the man as a NYC bicycle messenger.
Doomtree: Drumsticks
P.O.S., Dessa and their Minneapolis indie hip hop crew ride bikes through town.
The Smiths: Stop me if you’ve heard this one before
Classic 1987 clip. Moz and pals biking around Manchester. The Smiths’ last video and single. It bombed! and by the time the video was released, the band had already split up. Fantastically shot and edited and the end of a chapter in Indie.
Flaming Lips: Watching the Planets
Wayne Coyne inside a man-sized plastic bubble traversing over throngs of naked nymph like cyclists being framed in perpetuity, oh and a giant furry vagina. Boobs, butts, balls and bikes… and it wasnt filmed in Greenpoint? By the end of the video, Coyne bares Heavy D and the boys just like everyone else in the video.
Bat for Lashes: What’s a girl to do
This might be one of the best music videos in the past 10 years and one for the Furries. Natasha Khan, flanked by a bike gang of animal headed bmx tricksters bike alone on a dark country road…or are they?
