After years of silence Absolutely Free Festival (AFF) is back. Same concept, but thanks to new technologies, new ways of getting the word out. So they asked me to save a tree and roll a tape, and that’s what I did.

I visited 4 of the bands playing at AFF at their home or an other location that feels natural to them. Armed with 2 cheap videocams and a gorillapod I shot the bands presenting an accoustic version of one of their tracks, edited it all and the result .. is this:

(videos after the jump!)

Naturally 7 gets funky on the Paris subway. Some great viral marketing, I must say …

Rather funny how some people seem a bit annoyed or discomforted more at the beginning of the video

Naturally 7 is an a cappella group from New York. Although, at the moment, it seems like their biggest success lays in Europe and Germany in particular (hell, even their (official?) website seems to be over at .de).

These guys bring a nice mix of R&B, soul and beat-box. I checked out their MySpace, bit too smootchy ‘n soft to my taste, but they sure know how to bring over a vibe, so respect for that!

Found this one via the great On-Point!
