Kruposays...Broken Social Scene soundtrack? I love it!
vidimeistersays...Yep, have to echo Krupo's sentiments regarding the music. Anybody know what the track is?
RobotAdamsays...The track is called "Bandwitch," the second to last track on the self-titled Broken Social Scene album.
HAMFISTsays...Great soundtrack. Can't believe people ride like that on fixed gears...
Deanosays...I found that really engrossing and hypnotic. Awesome music. I have a few songs by BSS but that's the best I have heard.
swampgirlsays...life expectancy of a N.Y. bike courier...wonder if anyone has done the numbers.
Kruposays...Not necessarily that bad - oh swampgirl, how can you be such a pessimist?
1zin1says...OMG, cool vid, but the directer or whatever has the same last name as me
conansays...PLEASE, someone open a car door.
JerkyTwinssays...Its the guys, or any girl for that matter, that don't ride like that in the City that I worry about. They're the ones that shouldn't be on those roads and should stick to central park on a sunday.
Farhad2000says...These guys are obviously professional NYC couriers.
I think the soundtrack is awful personally. There was an original of this that had different soundtrack that suit more.
Kruposays...*promote this little baby to coincide with sifting up of my related vid, http://www.videosift.com/video/Ride-for-Heart-2007-Biking-on-Toronto-highways
@farhad's old comment - yeah, I can imagine several different soundtracks you could fire onto this. It's interesting to consider the different effect the choice of soundtrack has on viewers. I mean, "interesting" = obvious, but still a fun thing to think about too.
siftbotsays...Re-promoting this video to the front page as a VideoSift Classic. Originally published on Saturday 12th August 2006 (promotion called by gold star member Krupo)
ptm007says...Reminds me of this: http://www.videosift.com/video/New-York-City-Bike-Messenger-Drag-Race
Looks like it's from the same race?
edit: Yeah, it's the same thing, just different music, imo better ;-]
