All Back to YourTube - our fave internet clips for afterparty ammunition
In this group you can find all the funny clips we've printed in Mixmag as the funniest, most thought provoking or oddest clips to watch when back at yours after a big night...
To start here are the four from our May issue...
TIME WASTER
The DMC World DJ Finals are the annual display of awesome turntablism. Someone forgot to tell Austrian, Roman Zerano who spends his entire three-minute-slot trying to mix one tune into another. Shambolic.
SAUSAGES ON FORKS AT THE READY
Grange Hill might have been axed from telly but there are still loads of great clips on Youtube. Here Kevin accidentally takes LSD then threatens to throw himself off the school roof. Ba-downt-bow-bowww!
LEARN FROM THE MASTER
James Zabiela knows more CDJ tricks than Mr Pioneer, so why not learn off the master on this clip that shows you a range of what he-s got in his locker. He calls it ‘basic stuff- but this is still beyond our looping abilities.
IT GETS DAFTER
Daft Hands, featured on our pages last year, has now been watched on YouTube more than Daft Punk-s Around the World the video. These two take it up yet another level – introducing Harder Bodies Faster Stronger.
Aprils YouTubes...
Youtubes
Billy-s Balls
Think you-ve got too much time on your hands. Billy has. He spends all day bouncing ping pong balls into paper cups. One watch and you-ll be doing the same.
Party kid
Corey Worthington, 16, has become a house-party legend in Melbourne when his gathering saw 500 people, the air squad and police dogs invade his mum house. Here a newsreader fails to dress him down

Hooked on Mixmag
Pete Hook may be a Hacienda ledge - but he still uses Mixmag CDs when DJing out. At the top of this mix, filmed in Hong Kong, you can clearly hear Armand Van Helden-s spoken word intro to the mix CD given away with our October 2004 issue.
Techno Viking
At Berlin-s Fuck Parade (an anti-movement against the Love Parade) this scary Techno Viking was filmed dancing behind a float. Remember: Techno Viking doesn-t dance to the music, the music dances to Technoviking.
WHEN HERBIE MET QUINCEY
WHEN HERBIE MET QUINCEY
Some old school from Herbie Hancock as he shows Quincey Jones round his then cutting edge Fairlight CMI synth in 1983.
MC DEVVO
Originally broadcast on E4, catch up with MC Devvo, a ‘UK rapper- who loves nothing more than spending his dole money of super strength lager than starting fights with cars.
Search terms: MC Devo
MUSIC YOU CAN EAT YOUR DINNER OFF
The Reactable is a futuristic electronic musical instrument that makes sounds depending on what shapes are placed on its surface. Captivating but totally bonkers.
Optical Illusions
The official video for Whitest Boy Alive-s beautiful ‘Golden Cage- is made up of a bunch of fun optical illusions. They-re especially dramatic after a night out. The Union Jack is a particular winner.
Dare Devils
The best new extreme sport is slope-flying in wingsuits. Its like Basejumping except instead of getting as far from what you jumped as you can, these guys try to cruise above the ground using the wings in their suits.
The Worst Interview Ever
Experimental Icelandic band Sigur Ros get interviewed on this American radio station but don-t feel like elaborating on any questions. The result; a lot of dead air.
