Reuben Wu did a soundtrack for a promotional video

Reuben Wu did a soundtrack for a promotional video titled "Over 2 Million Containers, 2,000 Routes - GE" for GE:



The music is excellent and it sounds like Ladytron and Orbital. The video is great too, because it's synchronized with the music. More details from this site:

In an attempt to "artistically demonstrate the complexity involved in the tightly-orchestrated intermodal process that is required to move goods", GE and Barbarian Group collaborated with Reuben Wu, of British band Ladytron, to create a new music video (of sorts) called "Over 2 Million Containers, 2000 Routes".

To create the music for the video, Wu integrated organic terminal sounds from CSX Intermodal Terminal in North Baltimore, Ohio with original instrumentation. The video takes the terminal sounds and original music, and creates a natural fit for the them "synchronized against key moments in the intermodal process". This may all sound very complicated and clinical, but the video succeeds at making this process appealing, giving the viewer an idea of all the complexity that goes into the "tightly-orchestrated intermodal process" in a way that is actually enjoyable.

New video for "International Dateline" soon

Great news! Daniel Hunt twitted on 19 October:

"I found a six year old unfinished Ladytron video down the back of the sofa, so I finished it. Will post when I get around to it".

I asked if it's the video for "International Dateline" and he confirmed. He also replied to me that they've got too busy with touring to finish it. Also it was originally envisaged to make a video for "Soft Power" too.

Later, Hunt twitted: "The end result I rather like, helped in no small part by the telegenicity of @marnieofficial".
