EURO DISCO ZONE – BEHIND THE SCENES

Let the man himself, Jordi Fiesto, take you on a journey through the back alleys of the Lumumba Monologues process with exclusive access to the Speedo Monocle sound studios, deleted scenes from Michael Mirage and much more.

Watch Jordi Fiesto’s masterpiece >>Euro Disco Zone<< here

Jordi Fiesto – Euro Disco Zone (Official HD Video)

LumumbaMonolgues presents Jordi Fiesto’s ‘Euro Disco Zone.’

A message from Jordi…

“Hey everybody, Jordi Fiesto here, and it is super cool that you found my video. 

Now for those who aren’t too familiar with myself and my band ‘The Electro Migrants’, we’re kinda big over in the Euro Disco Zone where we play to big crowds from Brussels to Budapest, the Baltic’s to the Balkans and Romania to Rome.

Now we have been hearing a lot of noise about immigration in the Euro Disco Zone from UK politics & media. As I’m sure you all know, there are some pretty intense views which are absolutely not Eurotastic and have made many of us in the Euro Disco Zone wonder if they truly reflect the views of the super cool citizens of the UK?

Well do they?
Is Immigration to blame for all the social and financial problems?

I think that when you are fed a diet of fear by people who are supposed to represent you, over time you will become infected with fear.

And I don’t believe in fear, I believe in unity and love. Disco love.

Sure the Euro Disco Zone is not perfect but then where is? It’s not about Finding a Utopia, it’s about the spirit in which you treat your fellow human beings.

So I decided that every negative action must have a positive reaction, and rather than get angry, I must spread some love, some disco love. And rather than just fighting with these people just show them a better way. A disco way.

And so together with my band, we created a response to the distorted and angry political discourse in the UK in the only way we know how. With Euro Disco.

So exclusively to the LumumbaMonologues Youtube channel I present to you my Eurotastic Disco Dance track.

If you like Disco, you’re going to love this.

Thank you.”

Jordi Fiesto.

O Tannen Geist (Oh Christmas Spirit)

A few of the Lumumba Monologues cast got together to enjoy some fine Christmas radio. What they got was the true horror of the modern Christmas carol.

Sometimes all you need is a fine Lumumba! Enjoy with whipped cream 🙂

LOVELY LETHAL RIGHT – BEHIND THE SCENES


(With commentary by Randy Trucker)

A very rare opportunity to go behind the scenes on a LumumbaMonologues shoot and see how the ‘professionals’ make it up as they go along with pretty much no idea what they are doing. And see a grown man wrestle with a camera and barely come out on top.

We were also lucky enough to interrupt Randy Truckers busy touring schedule to bag us some moving commentary.

Be ready to be inspired… again!

Watch Randy Trucker’s debut single ‘LOVELY LETHAL RIGHT’ here

Randy Trucker – Lovely Lethal Right*

So you think guns are dangerous and kill innocent people and that more gun control is the answer?

Well Randy Trucker’s challenge to you is to watch his debut single and see if at the end you still hold such an unpatriotic and ignorant world view!

*DISCLAIMER: The views expressed in this music video are solely those of Randy Trucker and do not represent the views of LumumbaMonologues although we do fully endorse the creamy nature of his voice. We advise all viewers enjoy this music video in the spirit it was intended. 🙂

NHS299 – A day out with BANK£N$T€IN and friends

A short video covering the theatrics of the NHS299 march against the Conservative Party Conference on Sunday 29th September where the puppet politicians kindly joined us for the day 🙂

Der Whistleblower Official Trailer

The most wanted man on the planet finds himself the victim of a relentless manhunt and smear campaign for revealing nothing more than the truth but he finds help in the strangest of places that guide him and help him discover who is friend and who is foe.

“A distinctly LumumbaMonologue take on real and recent events.”
***** Left Biscuit Weekly

This trailer was edited in a Hollywood trailer style with over-the-top bass in an attempt to make the production seem bigger than it is to get Nicolas Cage on board. (Long story short, he didn’t make it past the first audition. All a bit awkward in the end really)

“Nothing is Secret, Nothing is Private. They know everything”

I’m Gas Mask Boy – now you’ve made me MAD! (#TraffordGasMaskBoy)

A cool (and disturbing) piece of theatrical protest!!

After unanimous local rejection in Trafford for Peel’s Biomess Incinerator from the people, the council and the local MP, the Secretary of State for Communities & Local Government Abuse of Power & Business Interests decided to override the peoples will and give Peel his pollution license as naturally he knows what’s best for the people of Trafford. (From his office down in London)

This decision will not go unchallenged!

Have you ever seen an anguished boy in a suit with a gas mask rage rapping over a heavy remix of Erik Satie? Thought not… turn it up:)

An Unusual Manoeuvre – The Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank

A short time-lapse video of the Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank Observatory performing what one of the expert employees (Eric) called ‘An Unusual Manoeuvre.’ Apparently the telescope was tracking a moving object in space. A truly impressive site. (Albeit in real life there was no epic bassy soundtrack and it was much much slower than this:)

An Afternoon with Dr Frankín

A short documentary following the young and deeply disturbed Dr Frankín and his minions as he reveals his life’s work, the secret moon annihilator humanitarian experiment. He also shares his thoughts on tourists, recycling and his neighbour. But have his minions done their jobs properly and is the experiment correctly configured to give Dr Frankín his revenge what he needs to help humanity?

Awakening

Awakening was an experiment with time-lapse photography that became this video of a Lily. My first attempts resulted in 1000s of photos of the same closed Lilly which were nice enough as pictures (although acutally pretty boring if I’m being honest) but they definitely didn’t make much of a video and it did start to feel strange leaving for work everyday and leaving a camera repeatedly taking the same thing like an art-house CCTV camera. After watching how the flowers seemed to burst open at first light and in as short a time of 1hr I setup and this is what I got. The soundtrack is the actual sound of the flower opening. I put a very small hidden microphone with the flowers and this is what it picked up. Honestly, it wasn’t created separately and added later to make the whole thing seem like Planet Earth on acid!

Das Tagebuch (The Diary)

On a recent visit to the Austrian Alps ‘Das Tagebuch’ gave birth to itself and from the chaos and cushion of digital placenta grew and evolved into an experimental diary to review the many thoughts and emotions of the day. The form is a true surrealist visceral art-house style which subverts and rejects the straightjacket of traditional narrative structures.

These films were conceived, filmed and edited daily in 1.5 hours each (avg based on dinner time) so are instinctive expressions and naturally liberated from any typical editorial processes. As such they embody a rawness that makes them either truly original organic masterpieces of expression, thoughts and emotions or, more likely, rushed incoherent shite.

Note: These films are best watched in fullscreen mode with full HD selected accompanied with a fine balsamic vinegar and a breaded fertiliser.

Tag Eins
“…the Millennium Express stole my innocence.”

Tag Zwei
“And all that remains is my snow blind humiliation.”

Tag Drei
“His coat was as soaked as a doughnut made from spit.”

Save Trafford General vigil – 31st October 2012

Halloween 2012… the ‘con’sultation ends… the fight continues…

Over 12,000 signatures on the historic petition – personally delivered to the Prime Minister in Downing Street.
Over 1,000 people marched together through the streets to the hospital.
Trafford Councillors and Health Scrutiny Committees unanimous in their rejection of fundamentally flawed proposals to further downgrade and remove vital hospital services.

Our health, our resources, our hospital, our NHS!

#GLOBALNOISE Manchester 2012 – END DEBT SLAVERY

Democracy is not a tick in a box every X years – a dozen times or so in total over an entire lifetime!

Democracy is not the deficit of legitimacy left by the crushing majority of two-thirds non-voters at local elections!

Democracy is not a choice between a faster or slower rate of worsening financial apartheid and debt slavery!

Democracy is not about ruling through obedient, unquestioning or enforced compliance!

Democracy is not the abuse of power by the strong over the weak!

DEMOCRACY IS NOT A SPECTATOR SPORT!

THIS IS GLOBAL NOISE!

We want to BREATHE CLEAN AIR!

Introducing Gas Mask Boy (#TraffordGasMaskBoy). He has a message for the people of Trafford. The bullying Peel Powa is subverting democracy and trying to push through a poisonous polluting incinerator. Time for action!!!

De Bono & De Tree Peak Challenge

Doing what he does best Mr Bono Vox lends his weight and charisma to a Three Peak Challenge fundraiser to raise money for River of Life Uganda White Eagles Project. (A great charity supporting and educating children in Uganda and giving them the opportunity to fly high) With the help of “De Edge”, Bono writes a theme tune and shows us his personalised Three Peak training regime with the aim of inspiring the challenge team to fly high.

(This video is a collection of Bono’s bits from 4 longer charity videos so may make even less sense!)

MON$T£R MADN€$$ #12M

The MON$T£R is out of control!! The people of Manchester contribute their art and messages on a day of open expression.

Boxing Day Sales

Sick of the consumerist obsession for shopping? Boxing Day 2011 saw people queuing to find deals from 6am!!!?? There’s a lot that could be said about this but we tried to sum up the feeling in a simple film.
