load time, this feed is from my YouTube account. VJ CHRIS VIDEO MIX PROMOTIONAL DVD'S: I have created several continuous play video mixes. These are strictly available for CLUBS / POTENTIAL EMPLOYERS seeking an experienced professional Video Jockey. For additional information, please contact me. Please note, I do not sell or distribute or share video's.
RECENT VIDEO ADDITIONS: It is "assumed" that your club VJ will have all the latest video's from today's top artists (well any VJ that maintains a current subscription to a major professional service, like myself). But I also maintain a vast collection of rare and retro video's, some on VHS that I convert to DVD. Imagine: Madonna, Miley, Justin, Patti Lupone, Liza, Judy, AC-DC, Bowie, Metro Station, O.A.R., Robert Plant, Ben E King, Buble, Rihanna, Beyonce, Duran Duran, New Order, The Killers, Selena, Sarah Vaughan, Terry Jacks, Petula Clark, Dolly Parton, Mika, Landon Pigg, Snow Patrol, Ms. Winehouse, Cher, The Psychedelic Furs, Kylie, Britney, Natasha and Daniel Bedingfield, Barry Manilow, Sophie, Wham, The Go-Go's, The Captain and Tennille, ABBA, Bay City Rollers, U2, NIN, Whitney, Mary J Blige, Rollergirl, Gigi D'Agostino ... and hundreds more artists! In 2005, I started remixing videos on my computer - it's a ton of fun, but it most cases requires hours of labor for a 5 or 10 minute song. My first 2 creations included "I Don't Want You" by Widelife, and featured clips from the Queer As Folk episodes where the song was featured. The 2nd creation was far more complicated attempting for the first time to match the audio track with the video tracks - the final result was an imperfect yet "killer" remix of "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers (yes, the pun was intended). Most Internet users have heard of YouTube, Google Video, and an assortment of web sites that allow users to upload their favorites video's, shows, and other creations. If you read the rules for uploading, you will also notice that nearly every music video and TV show violates upload policy, based on Copyright Infringement. Being someone that plays by the rules, it is very frustrating to have video's removed when the same (or similar) video's can be found elsewhere on the same web site! Most video sites like these wait until there is a complaint, remove the video, and notify the user. The question then is why should anyone be allowed to upload any music video's? It would seem like the respectable (to the artist) way to handle this is to ban all music video's. Basically everything on the site with a VH1 or MTV logo is in violation of the policy. So are sites like YouTube encouraging this by not forbidding the video in the first place? Here's a sample of some of my video remixes:
