Coldcut Christmas Message by SummerSeventySix

Premiered by the BBC's Culture Show in the U.K. over the weekend, Coldcut have applied their cut-and-paste ethic to critique George W. Bush's environmental policy with devastating effect. Words spoken by the President have been manipulated to make it appear like he's crooning along to "White Christmas," but it's juxtaposed with images that leave you in no doubt what Coldcut think. As the program's movie critic Mark Kermode says, it does more in two minutes than Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth managed in two hours.

A little bit saucy, a little bit kitsch, a little bit tongue-in-cheek and oh so very very French, they make Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin...
Bat For Lashes: Fur and Gold
Welcome to the fantastical and magical world of Natasha Kahn. This British singer-songwriter, working under the name Bat For Lashes, has shown herself to be an amazing creative force on her debut album Fur and Gold. The remarkable album was recognized last month with a nomination for the prestigious Mercury Music Prize. And her recent single "What's A Girl To Do" was mentioned on...
Monkey: Journey to the West
A fitting way to open Manchester's first-ever international festival, "Monkey: Journey to the West" is Damon Albarn's and Jamie Hewlett's (co-creators of Gorillaz) stage adaptation of an ancient Chinese legend . Dubbed a "circus opera" complete with 45 Chinese acrobats and Shaolin monks (some strung from wires), it's very likely to be an entertaining and amusing collaboration between these British producer/artists and their Chinese counterparts....
