A New Summer Mix – This One’s A Bit of A Banger
I’m going to stop putting my music mixes directly on Crackunit. For a few reasons. Paranoia being one. DJ mixes have always been a grey area in terms of licensing, etc. So I’m just going to tidy them over to … Continue reading

An Amazing Animated Gif Video
Absolutely incredible – also from http://www.perishfactory.com/. It’s just one long scrolling scene made up of thousands of animated gifs. I quite like the song too, it’s jolly. Whoops, almost forgot the track is by The Sea and Cake and it’s … Continue reading
Bomb the Bass Butterfingers Video
I love this completely and utterly. The track is amazing and the video is wonderfully simple… It’s Butterfingers by Bomb the Bass (featuring Fujiya & Miyagi). There’s a high quality quicktime version here with much better audio.
