Labelled as Montreal’s urban operator, MadeinMtl culls the best places for fashion, booze and poutine, one of Quebec’s “delicacy”.
The site also features vignettes, narrated mostly in French, on themes germane to the city’s character like the Underground City, the Montreal stairways, multiculturalism and Cinema L’Amour. I strongly recommend a visit (the MadeinMtl site of course).
A couple of clips today. The first is another rendition of the Tecktonik rage in France, this time gal showing her male counterpart, how electronic music is danced.
As for the second one, it’s just not what you’d expect to see when people breakdance.
Joost is the latest brainchild of the founders of Kazaa and Skype. “It’s free TV, with the choice to watch alone or with friends. Joost is packed with internet tools such as instant messaging and channel chat, allowing people to really share the TV experience.”
If you need an invitation, send me an e-mail or reply to this post.
The video of the original track features an excerpt from a cult short film called C’était un rendez-vous, the story of a guy who takes punctuality seriously dashing through Paris to meet a girl (would’ve been funny if she arrived late). Amid the flaky weather in Montreal, it makes me want to go back there.
Note: a song with a similar mood is the smashing remix of The Killers’ Mr. Brightside by Stuart Price (aka Jacques Lu Cont).
