Last spring there were two especially nice impressionistic videos of Tokyo on YouTube ...
Lost in a Moment
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySrsZuD4w0c
An impromptu film made in Tokyo by Dennis Wheatley and Stefan McClean. They were sitting in this sushi bar pondering how best to set up a camera to film things all by itself whilst they were in Tokyo. Take our hands out of the equation... let the camera have its own journey.
The music is 'lost in a moment' by 'shrift' from the album of the same name.

and
Entering Tokyo AT Night from Narita

Alas, the copyright cops have gotten to the second one ... YouTube reports
This video has been removed due to terms of use violation.
The video content was totally original; the soundtrack was appropriately ambient; but when YouTube pulled the video, they yanked reference to everything ... the poster information, the notes, the video, etc.
Slowly, the same fate is closing in on the recording industry as a whole.
