Vincent Moon, the genius behind Blogotheque, has teamed up with band The National to release a one hour documentary called A Skin, A Night, which covers the creation of their latest album Boxer.

Check out the preview:

The feature also comes with a 12 song EP of demos and live recordings called The Virginia EP. Buy the movie and you get the album, or buy the album alone HERE.

Wideo Wonders (2 of 3): La Blogotheque - Les Concerts A Emporter



I've talked about and referenced Blogotheque before, but I thought I would do it in a more formal, straightforward post.

I don't know much about this group, because pretty much all of their site is in French. And I don't speak French. Fact.

But what I do know is that it is headed up by a guy named Vincent Moon, and he makes some remarkably inspiring videos featuring great musicians.

The first Blogotheque video I ever saw was of Sufjan Stevens:



The second, featured the band Arcade Fire:



Then, Andrew Bird:



Then I was hooked.

He puts up around a video a week, so it's worth checking in pretty frequently.

Here's one of his most recent, featuring the band Bowerbirds:

P.S. If you go to the Blogotheque website you can download all the videos in either iPod or full quality... for free!! What an amazing service.
