I’m the type of man that likes a little bit of sophistication to the movies I watch, and the music I listen to. There’s something immensely satisfying about experiencing something that takes a little bit of thought and interpretation.

That’s why I’ve had to think long and hard about this fan video for Wakanada by Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. You see, this music video has neither sophistication or need of any interpretation  The creators just sort of let it all hang out, and the results are, well…
