Here’s a Music Video from my Summer Tempests album.
I’ll be celebrating the one year anniversary of The Sugarfix Mix on Saturday, September 12, 2009 in Conjunction with the record release party for “Summer Tempests“, my first solo outing on the Pox World Empire Label. It will be at the Cat’s Cradle and will feature a montage of some of the finest moments from the show-AND WE WILL BE SERVING POX CORN TO ENHANCE YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE. Birds and Arrows as well as Schooner will also be performing. Hope I’ll see you there!
The Sugarfix Mix relies heavily on archival footage in the public domain. The Prelinger Archives at Archive.org is a great source for this, and is my very favorite thing on the internet. For fun, I take footage from these old films and match it with music that I like. Here are some examples-each video will be followed by links to the films used in them:
Schooner-Ominous Bird
Schooner from Billy Sugarfix on Vimeo.
Films Used:
Violet Vector and the Lovely Lovlies- Candyland

Film Used:

To end, I’d like to include a preliminary version of the Felix Obelix video that used all archival footage.
