# Space Invaders in Düsseldorf

*Telephone Helicopter Applause Gunshot* is the name of a sweet electronic track by **Lorenz Rhode**, who says his music sounds like *Rick James dating Chaka Khan, dancing to Daft Punk and Technotronic, making sweet love to a Stevie Wonder ballad, when suddenly a group of German robots and a Yellow Magic Orchestra come rushing into the hotel suite and... they all decide to go to France instead.*

But today it’s not about his music, but about **Anne Lucht**’s fantastic Space Invader-inspired *Telephone Helicopter Applause Gunshot* video, which is nominated for the German AAA (Academy Approved Art) [Web-Video Award](http://webvideopreis.de/nominierungen/2012/aaa/) (which will be selected tomorrow) and was decorated with 13 Visual Music Awards 2011...

The video-clip shows 8-Bit pixel monsters (a low-res alien-gang) dancing, rocking and bopping their heads to Lorenz Rhode’s krautrocky tune in the city of Düsseldorf, dope!
