Hola, Bonjour, Ciao, Guten Tag and Hello.
We are getting ever closer to our rollout in the 11 new territories so I am practicing my multi lingual salutations as I will soon have my work cut out translating many many more hellos. Still no solid dates yet but things are moving forward nicely with preparations. Exciting stuff I’m sure you will agree, until that announcement though I beg for your patience, we are working as fast as our tiny little hands will allow us to.
This week’s update is truly both too hot to handle and too cold to hold. So without further ado… Let us begin This Week’s Updates:
Homepage Feeds
Artist of the Week
Jay Sean – This fella seems to be enjoying success where ever he goes first the UK, then Europe, now America. Featuring his new single “Down” and more videos from this up and coming superstar that will have you partying and slow jamming in equal measures.
Artist Spotlight
Britney Spears – Miss Spears has been around for a little while now and has amassed a pretty impressive back catalogue of videos. My favourite… Slave… for obvious reasons… the production of course
We have her new video “Kill The Lights” as well as pretty much her whole back catalogue. Enjoy
Tony Allen – If you have never heard of this man, I beg you check it out (that’s the second time I have begged you this week… no more!). The man is a legendary African drummer and one of the co-founders of the Afrobeat movement. You may also know him as being the drummer in Damon Albarn’s project “The Good The Bad and the Queen”. Well worth checking out.
Dirty Disco
Filthy grimey dance music for your viewing and booty shaking needs. From Leftfield to Mistabishi this is guaranteed to get your face all screwed up.
What Were They Thinking?!
Terrible terrible things have happened in the world of music in the past, fashion, performances, music… So bad they are brilliant. No examples for this one, you will just have to go and see for yourself.

PLEASE can we have some videos from Drum & Bass, Dubstep, Grime genre’s on the vidzone this would be great for all fans, these plenty of videos to go with that genre, its a shame its been missed out on vidzone
take a look at DeadMau5 – i remember. that has 2+ videos, so surely that could be put on vidzone!!
some videos may not have videos, but more visualisations, im sure some peopel dont mind not seeing a video some peopel actually like a visualisation
thanks for reading Lew.

Hi Lew,
Good suggestion, but why don’t you check out the Dirty Disco playlist first
We can only put up official music videos at present so I’m afraid we can’t include home-made visualisation videos for legitimate tracks.
Thanks,
Ben

I really wish I could use VidZone but it doesn’t like my internet. Videos take decades to buffer which makes the service unusable. It’s a shame really because there is some great content being added!

Greetings from Norway!
I am sure it has been mentioned at some point earlier, but does(or will it in the future) VidZone support remote play? I am wondering since I am most likely going to buy a Sony Ericsson Aino phone(It features PS3 remote play), and it would be really cool if I could access VidZone on the go.
I am really looking forward to VidZone!
Could you give us an estimated release date as to when VidZone would be released in Norway, pretty please
?

Since Ben isn’t comenting very much today, here’s a little help from me:
For all the people asking, when does Vidzone come to my country, here’s Ben answer in the last Vidzone post:
“We are are rolling out to Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway, New Zealand, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Austria, Switzerland and Portugal before christmas.
Sorry we can’t be more specific as we haven’t finalised the dates as yet ourselves.”
@24: Yes Remote Play works with Vidzone and looks brilliant on the PSP!

Posted on 23 October, 2009 at 11:51 am by ShinMegami
Oh yeah and this would be great:
REM, Rollings Stones, Prodigy (old stuff!!), Bad Religion, Absolute Beginner, Kafkas (Klatsch in die Hände!! Great Video), MIA, The Smith, Morrisey, Sisters of Mercy (Please!!!), NOFX, Propaghandi, Green Day, …
