I’m totally loving Eytan & The Embassy’s new music video for “Everything Changes” even if it does bear remarkable resemblance to Ingrid Michaelson’s “Blood Brothers.”
The band goes for 18 costume changes in four minutes, which sets the world record for the most costume changes in an unedited music video.
See if you can identify all the characters played by vocalist Eytan Oren, including Lady Gaga, Deadmau5, John Lennon and David Bowie. The video took a day to rehearse and 30 takes to get perfect.

“Reunion (Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. remix)” — M83
From Detroit indie-pop duo Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. comes this remix of M83’s “Reunion,” off their recent album Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming. The remix is a great, toned down version of M83’s heavily 80s-inspired track. Dale Earndhart Jr. Jr. keeps the essence of the track with M83’s signature atmospheric vocals, but adds their own twist with some synth, and a driving beat. Reunion will be officially released later this month and serious fans who buy the disc will be treated to six remixes of the single, including this Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. version.
