"Shake Ya Boogie" and "The Volcano Song"

Sometimes you just aren't in the mood for words. You're just looking for a visual escape to tap a foot to...Eye candy with an audio chaser. Drudging through a lot of bad, bad music, MMB found these two animated, instrumental delights.

Mocean Worker's "Shake Ya Boogie" video took eleven months to complete and is a tribute to a 1930's-style Max Fleischer cartoon.

The second is "The Volcano Song" by The Budos Band which takes me back to my childhood; the entire video is a mashup of vintage cartoon clips. Enjoy.
