We've all seen the Gen AI multiverse mashups on various social media forums - be it Ninja Turtles fighting Transformers or The Golden Girls in a dust-up with Dad’s Army [please make the latter] - but director Elliott Gonzo's use of the tool might be the most musically apt yet.
For the High Contrast remix of Satisfaction Skank, Fatboy Slim's legendary bootleg, which received a long-awaited official release late last year, Gonzo has placed the DJ, The Rolling Stones and the portly, ‘I’m #1 So Why Try Harder’-wearing cover star of the 1998 album You’ve Come a Long Way, Baby in a grimy squat party for an explosively good time.
Creating some nifty de-aged versions of the stars and putting them in a vid that's as frenetic as the track itself, this smart use of the tech from a director who describes himself as an "in-camera director first and foremost" is AI-OK with us.
