The ECC loves videos to accompany our music... hopefully you'll like them too. Perhaps you might end up making your own, like many ECC fans have. We've included those fan videos along with our ECC-produced videos for maximum rocking potential.

You can download and view our videos here; just read the posts below for links. You can also watch our videos on our YouTube page, many of which are in high quality (HQ). We also have a few videos on our MySpace page and Google Video.

Microsoft Wrongsmith... I mean, Songsmith

Meme du jour: Microsoft Songsmith, the band-in-a-Windows-box software that creates music for whatever you sing. Actually, insert "cheesy" in front of "music" -- take a look at Microsoft's own cheesy commercial for the product and you're left wondering just who the indended market is for this thing. The results are nothing you'll be releasing on YouTube anytime soon. Or are they?

Some clever mashers figured out pretty quickly that a pop music vocal track can be fed into Songsmith, and -- er -- "something" will come out the other side. YouTube already has a number of these Songsmith Mashups, but we decided to just go straight for the jugular -- using Microsoft Songsmith on the Microsoft Songsmith commercial itself:

We couldn't resist putting together a few Songsmih Mashups of our own too:

The Fat Boys

Destiny's Child - Bootylicious

Britney Spears - Hit Me Baby One More Time

Public Enemy - Rebel Without A Pause

Nico - All Tomorrow's Parties

We've got a new invention, and it's soooooo sweet...

Behold: The VidiMasher 3000. Based off of Johnny Chung Lee's whiteboard, we assembled a four-foot rear-projected faux touchscreen. It's perfect for our Wheel Of Mashup shows, which depend on an overloaded setup of Ableton Live. Because it's overloaded, it's very difficult to mouse quickly and accurately enough to mash things up on the fly. The touchscreen solves that. Took a look:
