Christian Montoya

The official tumblr of Christian Montoya / Decktonic.

”Four years after we posted our first homemade videos to YouTube and they spread across the globe faster than swine flu, making our bassist’s glasses recognizable to 70-year-olds in Wichita and 5-year-olds in Seoul and eventually turning a tidy little profit for EMI, we’re – unbelievably – stuck in the position of arguing with our own label about the merits of having our videos be easily shared.

Damian of OK Go on their record label’s stupid insistence on prohibiting embedded playback of their new video. (via Merlin) (via marco)
