With Barack Obama currently being inaugurated as the 44th President of The United States of America, we thought we'd point you in the direction of UK breaks master Adam Freeland's remix of Daft Punk's Aerodynamic: Aer Obama.

Freeland's remix provides the soundtrack to the YouTube clip below, while the video features "imaginative stylings" by toy artists including Dalek, Bill McMullen and Kubrick. Direction comes courtesy of the team at GOLD.

It's not quite as seductive as Marilyn Monroe serenading JFK with her breathy rendition of Happy Birthday, but we like it.
