WHOA, this is so freaking awesome and cool. The style is so spot on and I love it. I would pick out all the good parts, but the whole thing is fantastic.

Vidder, I bow to your editing skills. I can't even fathom the precision and patience you must have to pull this off so brilliantly. Just...wow *applauds*

[violace]

UM. My head is spinning. In a good way. That's some of the fasted, yet most precise editing I've ever seen and it is all around fantastic.

[cupidsbow]

This is both a visual feast and a visual assault from start to finish. Love it.

[goodbyebird]

You should see the grin on my face right now. This was SO COOL.

[sarkastic]

Wow, that editing is insane. Great vid!

[winterevanesce]

The editing is SICK!! So cool!

[ghost_lingering]

Wow, this is amazing. I love everything you're doing with audio and the interplay with the visual. Really really cool.

[bironic]

Spectacular editing work! The record scratch works perfectly for the time repetition in the movie.

[lunabee34]

This is awesome.

[jb_slasher]

Now that is a supercut if I ever saw one. Wow!

[valoise]

Fantastic melding of source, audio, and theme

[shadowkeeper]

I can't understand how this can be so frenetic and precise at the same time, but it ended up being fantastic.

Holy shit.

LET ME BOW TO YOUR FUCKING EDITING SKILLS BECAUSE SHIT. HOLY. WOW. I did not expect this at all, and I mean that in a good way. Visually, this is absolutely STUNNING with the cuts and the beats of the music. But more than that, I'm in awe of how WELL it's vidded -- not just because of the editing but because of the story it tells while moving super fast and being so overwhelming. I had to take a moment after I watched it to collect myself because it made me feel THAT much and wow. Wow. I can't get over how perfect this is. <3 <3 <3 <3 ANON VIDDER THANK YOU THANK YOU.

JFC how?! HOW?!?! Obviously the cutting is wicked INSANITY, I just love how the "records" switch and you have the different sections. And how technically Cage and Rita become the DJs as they are the ones who have the ability to work the story. Ugh so crazy good! Also, I want to acknowledged your decision to choose this music and create this vid based on this particular structure. It's experimental and fantastic to the point where it can be considered video art (I mean all vids are, but you know what I mean) and it can wind up in a museum exhibition or something. It's really unique which I find is a common theme for this year's Festivids in general. So cheers to you, vidder!

[unfinishedidea]

Holy shit, this was SO GOOD. I am IN AWE of your editing skills.

[jetpack_monkey]

I have no idea how you do the voodoo that you do, but you do it so well. I don't know how you manage to sustain such quick cutting over an extended period of time and still maintain not only comprehensibility but also entertainment and intellectual engagement. Everything about this vid feels both appropriate and yet somehow subversive (don't even ask me why I used that particular word, it's just there). Mothereffing kudos.

[nakedbee]

You had me at "Shut up." So awesome!

[felis]

This. Is. Amazing. The precision and the way you work with the audio is incredible. So awesome.

[gwyn]

Usually when I come up against audio like this, it triggers my synesthesia and makes me twitch so I often bail pretty quickly. But this was so not what I expected it to end up--I thought it was going for a joke when I clicked on it, but wow, no, you changed it up and this was fantastic and grabbed me by the throat and didn't let go. Amazing editing, amazing work.

[cherry]

Wow. This is completely 100% absolutely perfect. The best possible vid punch to the face.
