I have never ever seen a dancer with such utter and complete self-control... control of every muscle in his body, and such mastery of the aesthetic and timing of his movements. Still in awe...
Wtf is with the lighting? You can barely follow this guy's awesome movement with normal lights. Then they go and get a shitty spotlight that barely show the top half of his body.
Good thing he was wearing a white shirt or people would just see dancing shoes!
0:19 - 0:28 i honestly never saw more perfect beginning of the dance than this in my whole life, and believe me, i've seen alot. no excessive moves, just pure genius work
Dave can express and translate what the mystical song is saying,his moves are fantastic and simply amazing.Of course Boards of Canada are gods of their own ,their music blesses my ears and brain.
Amazing...Dave is a fantastic/unique talent, and his first kollaboration video still stands out as being one of my all time favorite internet vids. BUT the camera guy for this clip should be executed and the lighting guy should be sucker- punched in the stomach.
awesome stuff, how come David Elseswhere isn't in The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers (LXD)? Also does anyone know the title of the track he was dancing to?
@TheoStarks It's partially freestyle, and partially practice. He's been doing dance stuff since he was young (not in any classes, to what I've seen/heard/read), inspired a bit by MJ's moves. He said something to the point of "When I hear music and start dancing, it just takes me elsewhere, and I'm under the spell of the music."
I don't like how the camera gets soo close to him at times, it's hard to see the whole picture of him, and of what exactly he's doin. Ladies.. and Gentelmen.. the amazing... the... terrific.. The... 'Liquid... Dance.. Machine'!!!
this guy could just walk straight onto a dance floor anywere in the world and score the hottest girl. man this is the best moves ever. who is this guy he is a awesome dancer and promoting boards of canada. dude you rock ^^
anyone who finds my comment i made months or even years ago ,,, n copy n pastes it in a response 2 me gets free xbox live code or psn $20 voucher code
Idiot hack needy director/cinematorgarpher who zooms in and out of a performer to showcase his own photographic skills, or rather, his ability to operate a camera....a needy idiot looking for approval of his skills. A good director operates the camera such that the directing and director is not noticed or remembered...only the performer is remembered.
This guy is definitely talented and creative, but the typical Youtube viewer seems to be unaware that most of his moves come from a style called "animation" which derived from popping. To see more stuff like this you should check out Hojin, Gucchon, Salah, Seen, and Umin.
im a huge fan, but I still dont get why he does those couple of crap moves.. his stand up is better than anyone ive seen.. I know its experimental & that, but I'd just like to see a full routine of the cool shit without the ground stuff.. oh yeh i agree with melnorm about the editting & speakers...
Dave'z movez are watch yu call dancin' wat he does shouldn't hav a name, itz wat makez hiz dance unique from all else(where). like Bruce Lee'z fighting (Jeet Kun Do) which Bruce nvr named it in tha 1st place.
@THEETRUTHTELLER Did I hurt your feelings insignificant pathetic cunt? By the way you still haven't come up with any intelligent reasoning to your argument... OWNED AGAIN HAHAHAHA!!!
@THEETRUTHTELLER Ignorant motherfucker, Hispanics or Latino Americans are Americans with origins in the Hispanic countries of Latin America or in Spain. When you say Mexican and Peruvian you're referring to someone's nationality or place of birth, which doesn't apply to David "Elsewhere" Bernal because he wasn't born in Mexico or Peru, instead he was born in The United States of American which makes an American whether you like or not silly cunt. OWNED!!!
