Christiaan Van Vuuren and Nicholas Boshier play their Bondi Hipster characters from their popular Aussie TV show Soul Mates, in this completely over-the-top music video for their song Hipsta Shit. The satirical clip sets out to skewer hipster pretenciousness and by outright slapping their faces off, and after knocking a few eyes out of their sockets, it nearly succeeds in its aim. Described by its creators with a checklist of pop-culture trends, 'sick drops, dragon semen, illuminati symbology, hipster-bashing, and an unborn foetus dumping a pinger,' the result is an entertaining high-budget Aussie version of the infamous youtube meme Being A Dickhead's Cool.
