Josh McCartney creates a hyperactive cyberspace on his desktop, for Deap Vally's Perfuction.&nbsp;Utilising the neverending abyss of gifs and images available across the web, McCartney cleverly times a scramble of browser windows to the track, creating a mesmerising, over the top montage of imagery.&nbsp;Deap Vally superfans will pick out several Easter eggs in the video - including imagery ripped from previous videos - and whether you're familiar with the group's previous videography or not, you're sure to love this&nbsp;hypnotic joyride.[imgtoken data:1]"For a song like Perfuction,&nbsp;the only logical approach was to create the most "fuck it, whatever" video imaginable - surprised it even got approved," comments McCartney."The whole&nbsp;approach actually entailed sourcing the majority of the images and gifs into multiple standalone browser windows, which were thrown into the allocated screen recorded space in a meticulously choreographed dance that was edited into the chaos it became."By slowing the song down by half, we were able to get it all to match up to the song as if I was filming an actual performance video. So yeah, it's 'perfuctly impurfuct'."&nbsp;

What do you get if you combine a supercool female LA rock duo, a Scottish pop-star stomper, and a Berlin-based boundary-pushing icon? You can see for yourself, in Josh McCartney's psychedelic-tinged lyric vid for High Horse.&nbsp;Intertwining BTS footage of a high-energy studio session - shot at the Foo Fighters' Studio 606 in Northridge, California - featuring Deap Vally, KT Tunstall and Peaches with Yellow Submarine-style lyrics and vivid animations, the concept transcends the usual lyric video fare, transporting viewers to a mesmerising, kaleidoscopic parallel world.&nbsp;It's a truly innovative&nbsp;collaboration - and as magical as it is unexpected.&nbsp;
