The “Percolator” was a distinctive early 90s “line dance” craze, but one you might never have been exposed to unless you lived in, say, Boston, DC, Chicago or Detroit. Major Lazer’s animated music video, an hommage to “It’s Time for the Percolator” features cartoon stand-ins of Michael Jackson, Darth Vader, the couple from American Gothic and even physicist Stephen Hawking, who gets ejected from his wheelchair by an Avatar character.
