MUSIC FROM SPACE: Cut Chemist - 1st Big Break

First, a rant.

Much as I love bringing you Music from Space, it seems to get a bit harder every day to find videos I can actually embed here. The record industry is run by a bunch of greedy, technophobe jerk-asses who actually think it's a bad idea to let people post music videos online. Well, sorry to break this to you guys, but MTV has turned into reality show swill. If fans aren't allowed to share music videos online, then music videos got no place else to go. You may as well just lock the things up in a lead case and bury them at the bottom of the sea.

What? Oh, yeah... I'm supposed to say something about the video itself. Well, it's simultaneously cheap and goofy and flashy and awesome. Remember when you were a kid and you'd spin around and around on the merry-go-round and then even when you stopped spinning everything around you would keep spinning for a while until it made your head hurt? This is kinda like that. With robots. (Click the image above to buy the CD The Audience is Listening.)

And as a bonus, here's a fan-made video for this song that is perhaps even better, featuring a bunch of college dorks poppin' and lockin' in their tin-foil robot suits. Enjoy it now, before the record company makes 'em take it down.
