Easygoing BMX

Anita — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 18:14:26 +0000

I love the easygoing style of this bmx video. The riding is nice and the song is good but what really creates the right atmosphere here is the video editing.

Each clip flows smoothly into the next one, giving it a feel of being good without trying too hard.

I’ve had this video on my iPod for a while now and haven’t gotten tired of it at all. It’s a nice one to just kick back and watch every so often when I need a quick break.

Breathing Life Into The Mundane

I’m a huge huge fan of bmx videos, I can’t get enough of them. To me it’s such an amazing form of poetry the way that people can breathe life and energy into something like a concrete parking garage.

They’re basically creating awesome stories in what normally are pretty mundane landscapes:

YouTube Playlists

These are playlists of videos from YouTube, organized loosely into different categories. Basically they are videos that I’ve come across and thought were worth sharing.

Some are amazing for sure and have expanded my horizons and changed my life in ways that I never expected. Sounds crazy but it’s true, videos can do that :). Others are just interesting, noteworthy, or funny. All are good and worth watching.

Hit play to get the playlist going but feel free to scroll around to see what’s all on the list it’s meant to be explored and new stuff is added all the time.

‘Food For Thought’
This is the best of all the playlists in my opinion. These videos have the widest variety of topics but all are a catalyst in some way.

‘Bike’
The best BMX and bike videos on YouTube.

‘Random Funny Videos’
Better than Prozac and without the jittery side effects.

‘Mindfulness’
Mindfulness = zen = meditation = awareness = the art of living.

‘Really Good Music Videos’
The best of the best music videos on YouTube.

‘Live Music’
Videos of awesome live performances by musicians.

‘Vs.’
Music mashups that I’ve downloaded to my iPod.

‘Fail’
To fail or not to fail?
