Top 11 Music Videos By Director X: From Drake And Bieber To Nicki And Nelly To ‘Northern Touch’

Drake

Because we’re notorious and remember that song “Northern Touch” with Rascalz, Checkmate, Kardinal and Thrust, when Sarah was presented with the opportunity to talk to the music video director known as X she jumped at the opportunity.

X has come a long way since churning out MuchMusic/Rap City fodder and nowadays lists folks like Justin Bieber, Drake and The Wanted on his resume.

When Sarah spoke to him they talked about select videos he’s created over the years.

Deadmau5 vs. Haunted Houses And Niagara Falls

It was only meant to be a cheeky throwaway for Halloween.

Sarah had some stray quotes from her Deadmau5 interview where he lit up on the haunted houses in his hometown of Niagara Falls and said he had to move to Toronto for his music. Some swear words, some zings… that’s it.

The story, though, published in Huffington Post Music Canada, has since become much more.

The mayor of Niagara Falls and local councilors responded in the Welland Tribune. The Niagara Falls Review version of the same story then became a fascinating comment board party.

And in the aftermath of all that came “Deadmau5 Responds To Critics.”

Feel free to read through and comment. Everyone else has…

Matthew Good’s New Album ‘Arrows Of Desire’ Inspired By The Pixies

Matthew Good has never played coy about what influences his music. Just ask him about Talk Talk.

I mention this mostly because he has a new album out called Arrows Of Desire and the Pixies played a pretty big part in its creation.

I know this because he told me as much for Huffington Post Music Canada.

Lars Ulrich Explains ‘Metallica Through The Never’

Metallica Through The Never

Metallica Through The Never

As someone who is uniquely capable of charming old metalheads, Sarah was tasked with interviewing the members of Metallica when they were at the Toronto International Film Festival to promote their Metallica Through The Never film.

She spoke to all of ’em except James and had a particularly artful time chatting with the often-maligned Lars Ulrich.

Matthew Good: Family Man

A good many people have imprinted onto their consciousness that Can-rocker Matthew Good is something of an asshole.

Fair play. He actually sold t-shirts that said as much a decade ago. But he’s not quite the same person as he used to be in that regard.

Nowadays he’s mostly a regular family man.

As such I went through a number of photos of him with his family for a collection of images published in Huffington Post Music Canada.
