The 'Buffalo Stance' video by Portugal's Buraka Som Sistema is the latest cover in the [Dr. Martens 50th anniversary project](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-and-awake-ny) that has been running throughout the year.

The goal of the [project](http://www.complex.com/blogs/2010/05/20/wake-n-watch-dr-martens-50th-anniversary-buffalo-stance-music-video/) was to emphasize the spirit of the punk brand through the release of ten videos. The electro-based 'Buffalo Stance' video reminds me of Major Lazer's latest gyration-heavy videos, as this too featured some intense dancing and some intense colors.

**Implications** - With this much booty-shaking going on you can bet many people are going to be watching this Buffalo Stance video over and over again. This was a highly effective way for Dr. Martens to celebrate their monumental 50th Anniversary; I would say their goals were accomplished with this video!
