Death Valley Girls - Sunday

Everything But The Girl - Nothing Left To Lose

Marking a comeback for legendary English electronic duo (we talked more about that here), the film clip for their new single was directed by Charlie Di Placido, known for his work with Kojey Radical and Jungle, and features some beautifully shot choreography taking place in a late night diner.

 

Genesis Owusu - Get Inspired

After dropping his new post-punk influenced single late last year, this week Owusu dropped the official music video for Get Inspired and it’s a psychedelic affair, featuring Owusu, a green screen and lots of distorted, multiplying and evolving imagery. 

 

M83 - Oceans Niagara 

More psychedelic green screen trickery this week on the new one from M83, with the video featuring a number of protagonists seemingly on a tripped out adventure perfectly matching the majestic, sweeping vibe of the track - read more here.

 

shame - Six-Pack

British post-punks come in hot with a playstation 1 inspired fever dream of a video, featuring an alternate telling of the tale of Napoleon Bonaparte in a modern gym setting… it’s even more bizarre than that sounds, more info on it here.

 

The Go! Team - Gemini

English indie icons do what they do best on their tropical new single with a retro video collage that hits us right in the nostalgic feels.
