My favorite way to find cool new songs I listen to a lot is to find them via music videos! And I mean all kinds - professional music videos, unprofessional music videos, anime music videos, game music videos... anything goes! So I'm going to post examples of things I find neat, give the thread some time to bake, then come back and post more because I want to share my favorites and be introduced to your favorites! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DI0_FAT-lKs A charmingly endearing mixture of Transformers (the 80s cartoon) and a song from Muppet Treasure Island. I've never seen the movie, but this song is very good! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQzvfDL4cjE Star Trek TOS' footage mixed with.... Billie Eilish's Bad Guy??? And it bangs??? It takes the really surreal vibe of TOS and mixes it with the song for some really deadly lyrics. Great stuff! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwyPsUd9LAk Missy Elliott's I'm Better, showcase her and her crew in some INCREDIBLY weird cool fashion. Honestly all of her music videos are rad. This one's just my favorite! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlEj3569of8 Monster Hunter World/Iceborne + a Fallout boy song. This should be cheesy and is... but it's also a delightful showcase of the player pulling off some truly stupid moves, set to music that makes it more exciting! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C75E6VNDn2U Amazing editing! A whole bunch of anime are in this, where it looks at characters with similar/identical designs and has them interact with each other. Super clever! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w97_wxhPDDs And finally, to end off the OP, here's Aggretsuko footage to "X Gon Give It To Ya Maybe" - Carly Rae Jepsen vs. DMX. Wild, weird, ... fitting? Bonus info: while I find a lot of AMVs by browsing youtube and animemusicvideos, I must shout out crakthesky's blog for having neat yearly listings of AMVs they love. It's a fascinating medium, with all kinds of cool editing tricks, and I love it!

I just recently started listening to The Avalanches, and when I told a friend of mine that I was really digging the song Frontier Psychiatrist, he said that’s a song that always makes him think of the video when he hears it. Well, that piqued my curiosity, so I looked it up. …and I think it might be my favorite music video ever. Definitely top 5. https://youtu.be/qLrnkK2YEcE?si=aaNKRut0QinU7Bf4
