This video has been circulating for a while but I liked it so much I don’t care if its old news.

Submitted by dedicated (and quite talented) fan, Aaron Meola, this video mash-up treats us to the colorful combination of banging electro house and vintage children’s television.

Set to Diplo’s remix of Dance Area’s ‘AA 24 7’ on Erol Alkan’s Phantasy Sound, the fashion and moves are pure retro hip hop goodness, kid-style.

Aaron has done such a fine job with his creation I would have assumed it was the official video; but with Elmo taking the lead vocals and Bert (or is it Ernie?) on cameo with the female vocals, I suppose Jim Henson’s legal team might have had something to say about it.

Good luck to anyone asked to make an official video for this tune; it will be no small feat to outdo this clever bootleg. 

Thanks Aaron!
