I loved how accurate FSOL's music videos were. They had iPhones, iPads, iWatches, google maps, windows surfaces, everything down to a modern day T. The following was uploaded 2007, but I wonder if it was shot or made even earlier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_ZB6jgJMS8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_ZB6jgJMS8

Do you know any more about that video? I feel pretty certain FSOL didn't make it, it looks nothing like any of their others that I'm familiar with and the track wasn't released as a single (it was written for the game).

  Yeah that's not FSOL hahaha. I mean the music is but that vid is so obviously not the business. The only vid I ever knew of them having was this one, it was on a compilation VHS of music videos which had a pair of these prismatic glasses to wear while watching it so that every light source shimmered everywhere [1]. It looks like there's some more official ones they've done on search. The whole proper electronic music scene was too busy throwing parties to do music videos. I think that was more of a eurodance thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfWMv8Y1V5E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfWMv8Y1V5E

    Wow - I've never seen this video before, I wonder if they had input on the visuals or if it was left to the compilation creator. Here's the full tape https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XO3rLAs5Ee4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XO3rLAs5Ee4 https://archive.org/details/futureshock3vhs https://archive.org/details/futureshock3vhs Seeing Lifeforms on TV is my earliest memory of a CGI music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDSDeyfYJ5M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDSDeyfYJ5M then they did videos for Cascade, Amoeba, Snake Hips pt 1+2, Smokin Japanese Babe, My Kingdom, We Have Explosive, maybe more. I think most electronic tracks that charted in the 90s got a video? At least in the latter half.
