The Micronauts & Bosco - Hoochie Coochie

Music Video

Wiki

Synopsis

The video turns "Hoochie Coochie" into a kinetic nightlife collage. Young dancers move through a shadowy club, while bright outdoor sequences bring in sunlight, stark modern architecture, and open urban spaces. Rapid editing links the locations into one continuous rush of movement, matching the track's hard-edged electro pulse. Rather than following a conventional storyline, the video focuses on bodies, rhythm, atmosphere, and the contrast between claustrophobic party interiors and expansive daylight scenes.

Factoids & Trivia

  • The club footage was recorded at real parties rather than staged exclusively for the video. The locations included La Machine du Moulin Rouge during the Citizen: 10 Years Of Experimentations and Tsugi Federation festival on October 15, 2011, and the Pin Up bar during the Yuk-Fu Split Serie #3 release party on May 14, 2011.
  • The single was released digitally on March 26, 2012, through The Micronauts' Micronautics label.
  • The release was issued in several forms, including the original track, instrumental, a cappella, video version, and a "Bosco Kick It Version."
  • The production notes highlight an unusually broad equipment setup. Bosco's list included an Akai MPC2000, Korg MS-10, Roland Juno-106, Eventide H3000 SE, and Lexicon 200, while The Micronauts used software instruments and effects alongside a Nintendo DS running Korg DS-10.
  • "Hoochie Coochie" marked a brief return to The Micronauts project for Christophe Monier after several years without a major release under the name. It was made in collaboration with the French duo Bosco.
  • The video's visual identity depends heavily on juxtaposition: dark club imagery is placed against sunlit exteriors and geometric modern architecture, giving the performance footage a sleek, almost fashion-film quality.
