- There’s no denying Animal Collective deserves a seat at the table when talking about music-skate video pairings, so when we heard about their latest album “Isn’t It Now?” we used the opportunity to hit them up and talk skateboarding.

I have a story about Mindfield. I emailed someone from AWS asking where the premier was going to be and they said in downtown Manhattan. They said feel free to show up and attend. Me and a friend went from Long Island to Manhattan on cold February night and it turned out you needed tickets so we had to go home without seeing the premier. I emailed the same person from AWS a few days later saying what happened and they felt so bad they sent me the Mindfield DVD and an AWS deck that's hung on my wall as we speak.
Respect
I’ve read your story somewhere else he, maybe Slap?
@@TongueOfCrow yep lol
@bill855 that's awesome
Time is broken down as: Before Jake Johnson's Minefield part and After Jake Johnson's Minefield part.
Fact
Double fact
Next Jenkem interview - Built to Spill?
Hell. Yes.
or DJ Premier. I bet he'd be down to talk about skateboarding.
wowwwwwwwww
Animal Collective forever
Man this is a trip back to my formative years. Sneaking into the local reservoir on a sunny summer day in 2010, blasting Animal Collective and drinking beers like only teenagers know how. Life feels a lot less colorful now.
the Jake part is still my all time favorite
Kinda weird seeing their actual names instead of Panda and Avey. I really enjoyed this. More please!
I was trippin out. I didn’t know their real names lmao.
The mini-disc part was interesting. I had a friend who'd bring his with the wide mic to most shows in the late 90s and record them from the audience. The recording quality was surprisingly good.
It even looks like the VX of audio
i bet all the sung tongs era AC tunes were recorded with that thing .
mind field introduced me to animal collective at the age of 15 who then became my favorite band to this day :)
What he said about skateboarding surviving all these years is so accurate. It’s 2024 and a vast majority of us are still obsessed with a plank of wood nailed to a roller skate.
MORE LIKE THIS PLS
This is one of Best vids you guys have ever uploaded.
The first skate video I’ve ever bought with my own money. Fell in love with Animal Collective ever since
the first time i heard animal collective was on the digital skateboarding IMAGINE my favorite skateboarding video when was a kid the intro is epic and give me a ton of nostalgia i miss those days
I saw them at Melt! Festival in 2009 wearing Mindfield Shirts on stage. It was my first time seeing them live. I hope they'll come to Germany again soon, but it seems tricky.
That set is legendary, you witnessed real life sorcery
Mindfield and animal collective changed my approach and vision about skateboarding. Also I got lucky when I saw them in a show in San Francisco like ten years ago 👏🏽👏🏽
This was great lads, please explore the relationship between music and skateboarding more!
I’ve been touring in bands for years at this point and it wouldn’t have happened if I didn’t discover so much music through skate videos, such an important part of my life and I can imagine many others feel the same!
When I think of skate nostalgia their music is playing in my head 😅
2:15 definitely felt that immediately way to convey that message
My girls changed my life thank you guys forever
I wouldn't be into half the shit im into if it wasn't for skate videos. Anybody have some examples of artists or bands you've found through skate videos that you've become massive fans of?
The Delgados in that Danny Brady vid.
Placebo, from Appleyard Flip parts.
Future Islands
The Walkmen
Rodriguez (Blueprint, Sugarman)
When Mindfield came out i was only skating for less than 2 years. I already watched classics before Mindfield like Baker 3, Fully flared and more. But when Mindfield came out and I watched it, everything changed for me in skateboarding. I realized that skateboarding is more of an art form. The art direction, style, visuals/fillers and edit of this whole video really activated some shit in my brain to look at things differently which really made this video TOP NOTCH TO THIS DAY!
world class content
Shout out to the Mini Disc! I bought one in the early aughts right after the iPod came out. I remember thinking "That thing will never catch On".
very cool thank you for the interview
Jenkem don’t miss 👏❤️
this rules, AnCo has been one of my favorite bands for over a decade thanks to mindfield
From Howard county maryland like 10 min away from Merriweather love animal collective
This is dope, more good music in skate videos. I wonder if next you could interview somebody from David Bowies estate? It seems like they are in a similar mindset when it comes to music rights for skate videos and movies
Shoutout to MJ for using Five Years in Pretty Sweet. I was in 8th grade and though i didn’t fully get into Bowie until i was 20, that song was the seed.
Nice video! Stuff like this is great and I really appreciate it!
One of my favorite parts
jake is like the tim duncan of skateboarding.
back in the days, I was get into skateboarding again by Mind Field video, I remember I watched the Heath part first, but still the part that still mesmerize me to this day is Jake and AVE part.
Legendary interview, I wish u spoke on their relationships with skaters bc iv seen on Instagram panda is pretty close with Attiba & his brother.

There have been so many bands and songs I got into because of skate videos. But even skate videos couldn’t make this band good.
They suck now but everything up to their visual album ODDSAC is good
@@ambientrealms_ Highly disagree. Isn't It Now? was really good, imo
Dude stop moving your hands all over when talking
really good interview
