Telepathy

William Shatner and Cesar Romero are teamed up over a churning bed sample from Emerson Lake & Palmer's Tarkus on Telepathy, the relentlessly short dance track from Lyndon Lorenz, masquerading here for YouTube viewers under the pen name of Lyn Faber (don't tell anyone).

Clocking in at 35 seconds, Telepathy provides an excellent source of media overload, and was first kicked old skool on a Fostex X-30 multitracker, with sampling done through a Casio SK-5, and drum enforcement by a Yamaha RY-10.

And yeah, that's ELP as the audio sample providing a most heinously dangerous rhythm section. Whoa: has anyone actually ever gotten into sampling Emerson Lake and Palmer before? Come on: name something. Let us know if we're not the first, otherwise we'll totally claim credit for it. Cool!

The video clips were scaffed off a CD-based collection of public domain Sci-Fi TV bloopers, and everything was assembled on an iMac DVD-SE running Avid Videoshop.

Oops! Now we're in for it: the audio samples also included stuff from some kind of movie called "Exploring The Unknown" but we didn't put it in the title slates. We should shut up while we're ahead and maybe not say anything about it at all! So just watch the film, and then check out other vids and favorites at LLorenz100.
