It’s hard to even imagine what sort of brainstorming session with director Keith Schofield lead to the concept for the video for “Big Bad Wolf,” the latest from A-Trak and Armand Van Helden’s Duck Sauce project. One thing for certain is that it’s going to be difficult to look either DJ-producer in the face ever again.
We can’t even get our heads around the hipster synergy going on in this tracks. Start with Chromeo, those ’80s babies everyone loves to sing along to. Add vocals by Elly Jackson of electro-pop crossover duo La Roux and now you’re dipping your toe into mainstram pop territoy. Then remix by Duck Sauce (ie A-Trak and Armand Van Helden), the meme masters behind “Barbara Streisand,” and there’s really nothing we can do but submit to the blog gods this post this track.
