Music video by The Chemical Brothers performing Elektrobank (2003 Digital Remaster).
When music was music & the videos was videos
4:20 i love how the tempo goes waaay down before her final strike, and when she puts her foot down, the drop is somehow even more badass
Goosebumps ^^
Unfortunately they cut the most part of that colossal mass of bass synth in the end of the song. It’s one of the greatest moments from Dig Your Own Hole
My eyes watered a bit when she put her injured foot down while the bass of a distant storm approaching its finale.
Remember that bitfrom first emoting to this in 96. Strong.
Is no one going to say anything about the 4:20 timestamps??? xD XD
25 years and still in my play list ! Masterpiece brothers!
WHO'S THIS hulk hogan?
fat
Why so few views and why so few subscriptions? Really inexplicable!
I still can't justify whats better, the music or the video - they fit together so perfectly. Came back many times here for years. Many thanks to all artists!!!
I think this is one of the more underrated Chemical Brothers singles, always loved the energy of this tune
The fact that this is Sofia Coppola makes it even more legendary 🔥
OH, f me that is her, I knew I recognized her, lol
Is it actually her doing the routine though?
@@Gerrardstrike no, it's not her
When videos tell you a small story that stay with you forever ❤
To me one of the best music videos of all times. Still get shivers watching it.
word
this and the man with the red face too
fucking masterpieces
100%
The message is very beautiful, when you pass in front of a trophy case, for example. Every item in there has a story. And most of us don't even realize it. The video is pure art!
That's basically art. Not that we don't have that nowadays, but it's harder to find videos which tell a complete story in 5 minutes.
Marvel tries - in hours worth of dross
These days you only have 30 seconds to tell a story. I'm sure in the next decade it's going to be 8.
Too bad they cut most of the final part with that colossal mass of bass synth. Epic
We don't have art, we have post-modern sh!t.
there are still many that do this. just because you stopped being able to listen and watch new music does not mean they stopped existing lol. people are too cynical. I am 36 and I jam the old and new
My dad showed me this video as a child. I remember the joy and awe I felt. Still feel that to this day. Spike Jonze is a LEGEND
Your Dad has good taste. How old were you? I might have to show it to my 5yo.
@@bigginsd1 I was about 6 or 7 when he showed me. He also showed me Marlin Manson, Aphex Twin and Slipknot at that age, and I think I turned out ok 😅 at least he assured me it was all make believe. A little taste of darkness is good for children I think!
Do you know if it's actually Sofia Coppola performing or a professional gymnast doing the stunts ? (sorry if bad English)
@@emj7600 I believe they would have used a stunt double for the more difficult shots. Your English is wonderful by the way! :)
@@emj7600 She went on to direct Oscar winning movies.
Unbelievably cool music still in 2021. Feel the voltage. Dig Your Own Hole is a true masterpiece!
A true masterpiece!
It perfectly evokes the feeling of the late 90s for me. I was a teenager then and we had some mighty nice times. I remember wearing strategically placed glitter gel to raves 🥲
Back when music videos actually made you feel something
Chemical Brothers in the 90's was the shit. Such an original sound. Masters at sampling and looping.
Some great dance electronic groups emerged from the 90s like The Prodigy, Underworld, Orbital etc..
@@barriniho Peak Orbital (Insides, Snivilization, etc) was just surreal, almost pure art. Prodigy always brought it hard. Chemical brothers are up there though!
Don't forget The Crystal Method!
11 years later and I still agree with my comment 😁😁😁
@@SoCalFreelance 11 years ago... what a good time to be alive, when everything made sense 😢
Ive had this album since it came out and it NEVER GETS OLD! I love my Chemical Brothers!
omg this is such a good album!
Totally agree.
Remember discovering the Chemical Brothers after randomly seeing this on MTV some random afternoon in the 90s.
One of the best music videos ever made. Cool story that matches music perfectly. Spike Jonze is a class.
It's like watching a film in less than five minutes! My favourite chemical brothers music video!
i like the end of the video , like, everyone passing next to the medal but no one even noticing the great story it had behind it
Reminds of the creepy 'seeeize the daaaaay' scene in Dead Poets' Society
The picture below is of the Chemical Brothers themselves.
it's not an important story
@@shadyganem5448 Maybe for you. Well...your story must be boring as hell ;pp
@@katarzynapeplinska1268 My story is boring thank you.
One of the greatest electronic riffs in history 💙
And the ending part with that massive bass synth like a giant bee. Eargasm
@@animalgeo It is truly awesome ❤
Hands down my favorite music video next to Sabotage. It's truly remarkable how something that's less than six minutes long can make you care so much about what's happening and the characters involved. Most full-length movies can't even achieve this.
You should also check out the chems music video for Believe!
I love her face. It's so expressive and haunting. Just beautiful.
She is soffia Coppola, film director. Was Spice Jonez (video director) girlfriedn at the time.
Directed by Spike Jonze. Starring Sofia Coppola. One of greatest music videos ever!!!
Tune!!! Vid!!! Tune and vid made me devoted
@Cool - flawless editing that makes you believe the actress and the person doing the dancing are the same person
- the juxtaposition of badass music to a sport that is wildly considered feminine and therefore often "less"
- the use of the track as somehow both diegetic and non-diegetic (it's not really clear if this is the track the girl in-story actually performs to)
- the emotional narative of the video lines up with the intensity of the music, involving the viewer in a contest they otherwise wouldn't care about
- things like headspace of the maincharacter (distracted), conflict (hurt ankle), motivation ("mom??") get established with sipmle shots, telling an entire story about a teenage athlete and her family over not even 6 minutes
- all around solid moviemaking
-some bonzo on the internet: "dumb video...lazy"
@@TheyMadeMePickAName style over substance
don't know what that's supposed to mean in this context. please elaborate
HAHAHAHA It's not even one of the best Chemical Brothers videos!
I love this video and it produces on me so much feeling...I was a gymnast and very promising but my mum never came to my competitions so when i see this video i remember all the feeling i had and the emotions i had to make all my routines perfect but nobody never came to watch me...
Felt that, girl. I hope She realized what She missed and you two got to fix some of that.
Dreams that have shattered may not have mattered take a different point of view.""
MeLoves Sofia Coppola, and I will tell you why. That 'awkward' movie Lost in Translation (2003) kinda caught me off-guard. It was mesmerizing. And now when I look at her work, it's not nepotism... She's got Skillz! Thx! www.imdb.com/title/tt0335266/?ref_=nm_knf_i2
Big hug
Poverina, mi dispiace.
I like the end where they zoom out from the picture, as if to say that so much time has passed since her winning that it's just a distant memory.
I think that's what hit me the hardest.
a distant memory? not even that
Ive always thought the dig your own hole album sounds like a bunch of random synth noises and drum samples just chucked together is a few minutes but done in the most elegant, beautiful and mind bending way ever. It is hands down my favorite album ever produced and I'm eternally grateful that it came out during my youth. I highly recommend smoking a joint and listening to this album in the dark with headphones on.
For me it is the best chemical brothers song and also one of the best electronic music masterpiece.Especially the slowing part.
ultimate tune - last minute of this song makes my heart soar, love the distortion
i've always loved that bit.. gave me chills the first time i heard it and still does after all these years :)
One of the best music videos i ever seen.
I love the wholesome father/daughter relationship she seems to have with her trainer. She seems to care little about her actual parents- the father seems to care and root for her but she is still indifferent, as if he was trying way too hard; then I don't know if her reaction at her mother's arrival with her boyfriend is one of feeling reassured or rather cotemptuous indifference like "fuck I cannot fail in front of this hag". Whatever the case, the thing is the one sharing her struggle and joy is the trainer, and eventually the team girls. Quite hearthwarming actually.
Plottwist: The trainer molested her... :o
@@jmbs9833 why...
This is beautiful post, e.
Look no further for perfect mixing sampling, looping and BEAT CHANGE. 4:30 still 🤯 25 years later.
Cool video… I wore out my Dig Your Own Hole with tracks 3 and 11
This track never fails to energize me
It’s awesome because you don’t expect this kind of music for this type of video. But it works really well.
I had this album on cassette, now watching their music videos on a mobile phone, how time flies.
I come from the future, soon you will watch all media through only the gobe. All praise be to the gobe.
@@themotorcyclemasswhole I'm from the DISTANT future. The gobe is ancient news. Now we watch through the Boogadoff.
Man, Chemical Brothers made the meanest tracks! Total G. The kind of music when you're going on a mission.
Love the details in this video...the disapproving sister is priceless.
+seattlephotographer I felt the same!!
I've always thought that was his father's girlfriend, LOL
How can you think it's a sister? Competitor from the other team?
@@nostalgia9338the 2 girls in black staring at her when she injures herself
@@blaksin Yeah most likely competitors than her sisters.
CB and Prodigy, 20 years ahead of everyone.
Except Africa Bambaataa 😋
Да, дружище, ты прав!
Crystal Method also
And the rest.,
... and Orbital
High on my top ten videos of all time.
Spike Jonze really brings it. Stunning !
Sophia looks great in this too.
It puts a tear in my eye every time.
Who is listening in 2024😂😂 👽 👾 👽
Me , I'm Here !!!!
@@fagneryamamoto3278 me too actually
Yes !!❤
I am.. Sucka. And it's six months after you asked that.
This track, and my DMC/DCM (whatever) speakers, got the attention of my neighbors.. ¡BAM!
🎉
That freaking beat.
This is the most poignant music video I have ever seen. She has endured years of physically grueling practice and training. Her opponent is cruel. She is competing with an injured ankle. Her divorced mother shows up late with a boyfriend. She suffers an extremely painful injury, yet performs perfectly through intense pain. Then we see that ultimately, this moment of incredible sacrifice and triumph goes completely unnoticed and is quickly forgotten. :(
(I love the photo of the Chemical brothers in the trophy case)
that exact moment of Sacrifice...the "All-In" moment...that is why I love this video...do or do not...there is no try....its perfect...you got the whole backstory...some people don't even notice...this is what separates successful people from the 80%....hard work, ignore the distractions and full 100% commitment...Do or Die trying mentality.
now I don't see the Blonde Girl as Cruel...but I see there that vibe that there was some rivalry there and that the Blonde Girl was at the Top...always wining and that she was the Favorite, expected to win...nobody expected nothing special from the competition...it was mere formality for the Blonde Girl---and from nowhere our Underdog changes the Status Quo
It seems like there is a moment captured in the trophy case. A moment among many moments of human achievements. Not everyone gets to be in the trophy case. Those passing by are not really important for those having their time to shine.
why is she "the blonde girl"?
I was searching for words myself, you nailed it.
Only about the end, I'd go even further: the moment of victory was all there was to gain, then it turns into a bunch of crap, which is the trophies. Any second I expected her to show up, wrecked by anorexia...
And that moment of triumph ... I'd say the father, left by his wife, was a merciless force driving his daughter to these extremes - it was his moment of triumph even more than hers.
Some month and a re-watch later, I venture as far as to suggest, that the girl is thoughtlessly used by the father, and almost forgotten by her mother. A tragic figure with an empty triumph.
The title "elektrobank" does not really sound cosy, either.
4:00 onwards. THAT break, THAT physical buzz, even though acted as it is, still gives me a massive effort buzz.
I always loved this song. When I was 20 I had just bought Dig Your Own Hole. Then my 3 sisters and I were at our moms and my sister had these Spike Jonze videos. I loved this. Still do. 22 years later.
what these cats have achieved musically and their vidoes really can leave one speechless.
my mind is blown.
these old tunes are fresh and relevant as it could possibly get !!!
man, I love true music ^^
Ordered the 25th anniversary dig your own hole vinyl last week, this album is just on another level
"allright check this out" BAAMM
That whole album kicks ass. The Chemical Brothers - Dig Your Own Hole
Still to this day one of the BEST music videos EVER MADE.
The last part still gives me the chills.
Too bad they cut most of this part in the video
Goosebumps ! The feeling of energy of this part is insane
Such a cool song, it’s held up really well. The video is a masterpiece.
Best chemical brothers album Dig your own hole 99.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
An absolute fkn classic chemical bros video
Love it
Aaaahhhhh Sofia Coppola.... Always beautiful!
One of their greatest hits in the late 90s!
Can't see televised gymnastics without thinking of this track and video. I'm reminded of that as the Olympics is currently on.
Another olympics year, I'm still here!
This made me get all teary. Thanks for that, Jonze.
This is so 90's!
But yet sounds/looks like made yesterday
The kind of tracks I love to listen to when watching a WRC replay or driving through the tight pins of Spain.
still goosebumbs :)
i love the breakdown at the end... the video manages to capture that moment when you do think about performing you just do it...
We need this 4K
2023 is the right year for this again
That colossal bass and bombs explodind in the end are one of the best things I‘ve ever heard. That massive bass alternating left and right channels is from another world. Too bad they cut most of this part in the music video. It’s still amazing tho
Ah the 90's.
Yeah, it's like they realized that if they made it a full song, people would die from ecstasy. It's just too overwhelming. Def one of the best things I've heard too and I listen to a loooot of music.
@@omnirhythm really epic moment from DYOH. The trippy part in the middle of Piku is another grandius moment of the album. Great memories of my teenage years 😎
@@animalgeo goosebumps :D
@@omnirhythm I’ve also listened to a lot of things in my life and I can say that the Chemical Brothers were pioneers of
electronic music in a conceptual way, not only made for dancefloors like preety much of the 80’s electronic bands and DJs had done. I can affirm that DYOH is the first electronic conceptual album ever released. We can mention Prodigy, Daft Punk, Boards of Canada and many other bands that also made that, but the Chemicals were one step ahead in terms of production and concept. And, of course, the unparelled and unique (big) beats that only them were able to create. Daft Punk’s Homework, for example, was super hyped in the 90’s, but it did’t age well, so they were pushed to make pop music. And The Prodigy, which I’m a big fan, was the “hardcore” electronic. None of them were able to create monumental moments in the tracks and make such a variety of songs, from psychedelic ballads to the Beatles-esques Setting Sun and Let Forever Be. DYOH is an sonic experience that still (and will) sound fresh in the future. Sorry for the long text, I just had a smoke and revisited the old and good Dig Your Own Hole. Cheers
I love this song. Made me feel like I could do anything
I just love this videoclip... A masterpiece
I'm a 50 year old man and I used to play this vid every Sunday morning before I went to play football. It was really inspirational to me all those years ago. After I watched the vid I always felt like I could run through a brick wall!!
I've seen Die Hard too many times because I immediately recognised the actor who played the coach in this video as the store clerk who sold Sgt. Powell twinkies.
Music and video like this is almost impossible to see today in mainstream media. Something went horrible wrong with the music in the last 20 years.
I love this song, this video and young Sofia Coppola of course! Masterpiece!
4:34 The Godzilla coming out of the water to destroy everything moment
its so interesting how the chemical brothers always seem to include themselves so subtally in their vids.
Clássico!!!! ❤️
That ending though... says its all just a fleeting moment... sad.
One of my favourite music videos 👌🏻
Tantos momentos de mi vida... querer es poder... NO HAY DOLOR!!
emocionante esta pieza musical una de las mejores y mas logradas en la historia....sigan vibrando chemical waykis!!!
Now I really wanna see gymnastics being performed to the tune of electronic music lmao
Back in early '00 a lot of rhythmic gymnasts used eletronic music for their exercise. Here's an example: ua-cam.com/video/rRawJ4J7ckg/v-deo.html and also ua-cam.com/video/9Bff8-54PtU/v-deo.html
You just seen it though
The beat change in 4:32 is just SICK
Every time I see this I have tears in my eyes.
I am 35 years old father of four kids. This must be what the childhood is all about.
geniegb same here !! I'm 35 and this was badass when I was a teenage !
••©geniegb ada©
certainly one of the best videoclips ever made.
long live to Kerri Strug
long live to CB
;)
Ana Líbia dos Reis Fernandes It's beautiful indeed.
Most videos made for CB are amazing.
she put me back in time
This video gets sort of sad when you see the trophy scene. It's like all that girl's pain and sacrifice was stowed away as a black-and-white photograph inside a little case, to be forgotten forever.
I see it as the complete opposite. She made it to the trophy case! Not everybody makes it to the case, also it will forever be in the memories of her teammates, her coach, her parents and most importantly, herself 😀
@@lMobiuscidl A little, black-and-white picture in a trophy case isn't enough to capture the full beauty of her technique, or what she had to overcome to be able to perform it so successfully. It fails to capture the things that made that moment special, and anyone looking at the photo won't ever appreciate what it truly represents.
Compared to the full beauty of the way The Champ let you spend all those rounds punching until he found his opening and dropped you, everything pales there, grill man.
Just amazing. Back when music & videos were treated like pieces of art, by directors like Spike Jonze and Michel Gondry. Also, gotta love the framed picture of Ed and Tom in the trophy case. Irreverence at its best!
I remember reading somewhere they didn't like being in their own videos, so little things like this showed 'them' being in their own videos.
You can't forget about Chris Cunningham. All Is Full of Love is a masterpiece.
Don't forget the actress is Sofia Coppola daughter of Francis Ford Coppola (The Godfather) now a badass director herself. Beast mode times indeed!
@@summerteeeth It's actually more that they tried making their own videos in the beginning, but they sucked at it so they just outsourced the vides to other people. They had a few rules and one was that they have to be in the video somewhere, hence the picture on them in the trophy cabinet.
Björk video's are pretty brilliant as well. Check 'All is full of love'
One of the best music videos ever.
I love the Chemicals' first two albums the most and this is one of my all time favourites, that vocal and those merciless beats...awesome! Oh and the vid is fun too
Who's listening to it in 2020?
me !
Yo! 🙋🏿♂️
💜
Moi!
me, wasup.
Idols, forever! Chem bros are eternal! 2022 and i like it!
25 años despues y esto sigue siendo lo mejor,los 90s,mi epoca favorita de la musica.
This shows that the western music industry peaked end 1990s. Everything after that does not even come kind of close
This is one of the best music videos ever...a short film really...it doesn't need the music...
I've had this album since it came out and I'm only finding the video now? Guess I never really looked. Always loved the explosion sounds in this song.

so many classic videos, bless the chemical brothers
Did you know that the actress in the role of the dancer is Sofia Coppola, daughter of director F.F.Coppola? she is a director and actress and ex wife of the director of this video Spike Jonze . About the intro voice by the CB site :"The intro features the legendary DJ Kool Herc on the mic. The recording was made at a concert we played at Irving Plaza in NYC in 1996."
That's Spike Jonze talent in the screen!!! Love this song, love this video!
I literally watch this video for motivation. At least 2 days a week..
Electronic Classics 💙
Must have been 20 years since i first found out about this one, and it still stands as one of the best music videos out there. Well done.
:) i owe alot to the music of Chemical Brothers...me growing up, showing me that electronic music can be hard soft beautiful sexy sad depressing.....i thank you for all you have given me :) may there be more to come
i heard this first at a university lecture many years ago, since then I have to keep returning here because of THIS SYNTHETIC TYPE OF ALPHA BETA PSYCHEDELIC FUNKIN
