Hear, see, and feel Beastie Boys


Mix Master Mike interlude and "Intergalactic" at Balaton Sound Festival, filmed by Kobak

It's rare for me to find a video that captures what I feel a Beastie Boys concert experience is like. This video, filmed at the Beastie Boys set at the Balaton Sound Festival in Zamardi, Hungary, achieves just that.

This video has it all: Mix Master Mike's mastery, B Boy banter, special visuals (the robot animation for "Intergalactic" that I wrote about in another review), audience exuberance, and Beastie Boys craftiness (i.e., taking a mistake and turning it into something good). Note the funky, spoken-style way Adam Horovitz picks up the interruption in "Intergalactic."

This video put a huge smile on my face.
