A YouTube video, fusing the unlikely combination of dubstep music with the rather more mundane task of an accountant preparing a tax return, has gone viral, attracting thousands of views in just a few days.

Posed on the 31 January, to coincide with the deadline for filing self assessment forms to HMRC, the short film of Berg Kaprow Lewis (BKL) audit senior, Daniel Li, going about the routine task is set to US musician Skrillex's hit single 'Bangarang'.

Li, who only recently joined BKL said: 'Never did I imagine that joining Berg Kaprow Lewis would give me the opportunity to star in a viral. Filming took just under two hours and it was a lot like working here: challenging, fun and rewarding.'

The collaboration between the firm and film maker Daniel Berg has proved to be a sensation with the online community having viewed the clip 34,611 times in less than a week.

Berg said: 'I've always found it funny when seemingly "mundane" tasks are performed to epic music, and thought the 31 January tax deadline and dubstep would make a great combination. As the idea came about just a week before the deadline, turnaround was very tight but Berg Kaprow Lewis and my co-director, Christopher Poole, really helped things run smoothly and quickly.'

Myfanwy Neville, partner at BKL, said: 'Dan approached us with the idea of making a video to show a lighter side to the traditional accounting stereotype. We love getting involved with things that are a bit different to the norm, so this sounded right up our street.'
