Yep I have the CD, Telecommunication Breakdown with the floppy for Mac and Microsoft multimedia Quicktime application, as long as you have windows 3.1 and 4 MB of memory, (wow!) Saw them in Detroit at St. Andrews Hall when the CD came out in 1995. Still great stuff.

They also did the 1998 MTV VMAs. They did a lot of scratching for those ads.

I used to have the floppy and CDbought it after my buddy who had the video made us watch...Fried my mind: changed my life....Insane and brilliant

It looks cheesy in this video, especially with the way it's been remixed and presented in this video, but the USO puts on an incredible show.

[sazdal]

this is nor EBN but nice try

[fluzwup]

@sazdal It's on Josh Pearson's website, with the other EBN videos, which seems to be a pretty good argument in favor of it being an EBN video...

Just makes you think what they could do with King George the Second.

I had the original release of EBN's Telecommunication Breakdown. It had a bunch of "toys" you could play with to create your own EBN performance. Well before Flash and Java toys were common. The second release does not have the toys, bummer. Does anybody have the original cd?

A friend of mine has a Telecommunication Breakdown CD wich came with a floppy disk. On the floppy is a multimedia application written in Director. For the time (around 1995) it was an amazing thing... :-)

[resinsound]

yup, still have the cd, and the floppy. Classic!

''What you've heard here today you've heard for the first and last time. Remember it.'' PRICELESS!

[ParanoidMystic]

True genius. An inspiration. Thanks for posting!

I saw EBN's stuff when I was in art school studying video back in the early 90s. Of course, back then there was no such thing as internet video and all we had was video tape and unless our professors were willing to copy stuff for us, there was no way to get this kind of thing. So thanks for letting us see these after all these years.
