Funky people… meet Lasse Gjertsen.
Lasse makes some of the most entertaining videos available on YouTube. “Hyperactive” is a human beatbox music video he made from a bunch of clips recorded with a camcorder and then cut-up to create one drum solo.
Don’t think this is real beatboxing? Lasse says, “No, it’s not proper beatboxing, I know. But that wasn’t my aim either“.
We think it’s brilliant Lasse.

You need Flash to use this music player. Click here to listen to song.
Details: The original song was a bonus track from the “To The 5 Boroughs” album that never made the album. Like most the songs on the album, “Now Get Busy” features a new sound and style that is very cutting edge. The Beasties combine this new style with some great scratching - thanks to the incomparable Mix Master Mike.
Matthew and Junko from Hidden Fortress did an incredible job remixing this song… they retained the original and cutting edge sound created by the Beastie Boys, but put their own stamp on this remix. The quality of this remix and the production is absolutely flawless.
Hidden Fortress is a unique group… they create audio/visual/conceptual experiences with Matthew creating the remixes and Junko handling the video production. They have shown great diversity in music styles as well, having produced remixes in a variety of styles such as classical, hip hop, death metal and pop.
Hopefully, you enjoy this one as much as we do.
