Shot on July 23, 1968, this historical 16mm footage of Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention at Whisky a Go Go in West Hollywood, CA has been newly restored from the Vault! The film has been newly synced to the 2023 mixes, marking the first time it's ever been seen with audio. Frank Zappa never had the opportunity to see this footage synced to the music. Now you do. The film was shot in increments and features silent performance footage of The Mothers along with scenes involving The Freaks and the premier of The GTO's (Girls Together Outrageously). In the audience were Flo & Eddie (The Turtles), John Mayall, Elliot Ingber (The Fraternity Of Man), Alice Cooper and members of the Rolling Stones.

Think of early electronic music and you’ll likely see men pushing buttons, knobs, and boundaries. While electronic music is often perceived as a boys' club, the truth is that from the very beginning women have been integral in inventing the devices, techniques and tropes that would define the shape of sound for years to come.Nirvana Police

IMDB 7 | Feb , 2017
DAM! The Story of Kit the Beaver is an animated film that’s not about your average beaver. It’s the tale of Kit, a very independent (and easily distracted) young beaver who loves to explore the sounds of the forest she lives in. Animated short with original orchestral score performed by The Toronto Symphony Orchestra.Marilyn Manson: Birth of the Anti-Christ
IMDB 8 | Jan , 2001
The first live performance of shock rocker Marilyn Manson ever to be caught on film is featured here, recorded in 1990 as Manson performed alongside his band, The Spooky Kids. The film not only offers a glimpse into the early, formative years of the now-successful recording artist, it also highlights many of Manson's early songs, including "My Monkey," "Strange Same Dogma," "Sam Son of Man" and more.Once When I Served My Dear Landlord

IMDB 9 | Aug , 2014
Automatic Writing transforms involuntary speech into an ambient soundscape, conjuring four spectral musical "characters." Object Collection reimagines this on a stage of flickering monitors and shifting light, weaving a dense, ephemeral sound world—less a recreation, more an elusive, living mirage.Special Kinda Bad Feeling

IMDB 5.9 | Oct , 1997
Cremaster 5 is a five-act opera (sung in Hungarian) set in late-ninteenth century Budapest. The last film in the series, Cremaster 5 represents the moment when the testicles are finally released and sexual differentiation is fully attained. The lamenting tone of the opera suggests that Barney invisions this as a moment of tragedy and loss. The primary character is the Queen of Chain (played by Ursula Andress). Barney, himself, plays three characters who appear in the mind of the Queen: her Diva, Magician, and Giant. The Magician is a stand-in for Harry Houdini, who was born in Budapest in 1874 and appears as a recurring character in the Cremaster cycle.Bosko and Honey

IMDB 0 | Nov , 2025
Blending TikTok-style viral dance routines with a virtual tour of sites tied to Thailand's historical and present-day political landscape, from the Democracy Monument through to Wat Phra Kaew and the Equestrian Statue Plaza. Overlaid onto images of these locations are Ramvong folk dancers who perform the graceful movements of the centuries-old traditional dance. The accompanying soundtrack, composed by Tanat, reimagines the five activist songs in his distinctive musical style. Blending together national dance gestures with uprising songs, the work juxtaposes symbols of control and centralised power with examples of resistance against power structures.Filipinescas - Getanzte Legenden der philippinischen Inselwelt
