In the '90s, under the threat of financial demise, Belstaff was saved by Italian racer, motorcycle designer and fan of the brand Franco Malenotti. Economic concerns eventually forced the company to relocate to Italy, but loyalist Malenotti, by transplanting the factory boss from Britain and continuing to use English materials, has ensured that...

It comes complete with primitive star wipes and considerably good ideas for the upcoming 80s and 90s house dances, and then outdoes itself with the special seizure effects. The only problem is that the effects come too late to save the first half of the video, which drags on slightly longer than necessary. Ultimately, the FX may be worth the retina pain.
