I confess I don’t really know much about this Mocky guy he’s from Germany, and has done a bunch of collaborations with some high rollers like Peaches, Feist, and others. He scored a small hit with 2001’s Sweet Music, which is a fairly simple pop/rap song. His newer videos look like some kind of modern interpretation of Morris Day and the Time. This video for I Mickey Mouse Motherfuckers however, which was a collaboration with ad hoc, is pretty damn funny and has of course landed Mocky in some legal trouble with the mighty powers of Walt Disney who have fired off a lawsuit against him. The video is a really great example of how you can create an engaging piece of work clearly targeted at a web savvy audience without a huge record company style budget. Best of luck on that lawsuit Mr. Mocky.
