Jade Ang Jackman directs a breezy throwback promo for Priya Ragu's banging summer anthem.&nbsp;With a beat inspired by UK Garage, the track exudes nostalgic charm, and Jade Ang Jackman mirrors this sensibility in the visual aesthetic.&nbsp;We see the artist drive around the city with careless abandon, linking up with friends and toying with the possibility of romance - in an easy fashion.&nbsp;There's dancing, flirting and plenty of laughs, and in this respect it pays homage to the music video style of the early noughties - simple concept packed full of fun vibes, leaving any angst and worry firmly in the rearview.&nbsp;

GAIKA trawls through criminal records, footage and photos in the search for his ideal accomplice, in Jade Ang Jackman's enigmatic promo for Lady, featuring bbymutha.&nbsp;The distorted black and white video has a gritty 90s aesthetic, blending raw textures and fluid visual effects to create something unique and striking.&nbsp;The abstract chronology and focus on character feels almost film trailer-like in its execution, boasting masterful fight choreography, stirring portraiture and a breathless edit.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;“Having known Gaika and his music for a while, I love how his politics is always infused with his beats. It goes without saying that it reminds me of groups like Wu-Tang Clan which feels like the most iconic union of Black and East Asian culture which relates to our respective cultural backgrounds.&nbsp;"Hearing LADY, it reminded me of Blade and Kill Bill so I wanted to create some larger than life characters and movement sequences that felt like a contemporary take on that fused with the trademark digital weirdness / CCTV / state surveillance edge that feels like a creative thread of GAIKA’s too."With bbymutha’s wicked lyrics about Harley Quinn, I really wanted to draw on that energy to craft some female villains.”

Razorlight are back with their original lineup, and a charming comeback video from&nbsp;Lauren Rothery.&nbsp;Written by vocalist&nbsp;Johnny Borrell and&nbsp;Lauren Rothery, the video follows a major label regrouping of the band, and the anxieties&nbsp;real-life manager Roger Morton and a label exec have about&nbsp;potential problems on the horizon.Shot on 8mm in London, the video has an old-school documentary feel, intercutting performance footage with narrative vignettes, which blend to form a captivating study of character, career and what success means to different people.&nbsp;Punctuated with comedic moments&nbsp;and&nbsp;cameos, it's an intriguing&nbsp;way to re-introduce the group, and feels as timeless as the music itself.&nbsp;

Douglas Hart and Steve Mackey - the former Pulp bassist-turned director -&nbsp;direct a grungy promo for Hot Chip's return with Down.&nbsp;The video is a lo-fi&nbsp;affair, blending gritty textures, abstract imagery and distorted layers of oversaturated footage.&nbsp;Paying homage to early music video experimentation, the compelling performances are contrasted against unusual, seemingly unrelated vignettes, which seem more inspired by the industrial beat than any lyrical content. It's all brought together in a terrific, kinetically-driven edit by Thomas Goldser.[imgtoken data:1][imgtoken data:2]

Hold on to your horses as two disco divas unite on the dancefloor - via&nbsp;the magic of music video - as Kylie gets together with none other than Gloria Gaynor, of I Will Survive fame, in Sophie Muller's dazzling video for Can't Stop Writing Songs About You.&nbsp;On a glittering runway, it's vintage disco vibes as we see Kylie and her crew strut their stuff under scintillating lights, with a lo-fi aesthetic that looks ripped straight from the clubkid era.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]Gaynor appears in a separate performance vignette, backdropped by the night sky and overlaid with hypnotising effects and soft pastel silhouettes - which feels reminiscent of another iconic Muller video, for <a href="https://youtu.be/kRpZJ9EgJho?t=120">No Doubt's Simple Kind Of Life.&nbsp;</a>And&nbsp;its&nbsp;art directed by her longtime collaborator, production designer Alison Dominitz.&nbsp;&nbsp;Once again Sophie has also teamed&nbsp;with Theo Adams, whose company of performers provides&nbsp;Kylie's world with that extra pinch of pizzazz, and the result is&nbsp;a powerhouse visual for an irresistable track, pairing&nbsp;very nicely with previous Muller-Minogue videos for her other collabs on the new version of her&nbsp;Disco album - with Olly of Years &amp; Years on <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/10/12/kylie-and-years-years-second-midnight%E2%80%99-sophie-muller/73271" target="_blank">A Second To Midnight</a>, and with Jessie Ware on <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/11/18/kylie-minogue-jessie-ware-kiss-life-sophie-muller/73851">the telenovela-style Kiss Of Life.</a>&nbsp;[imgtoken data:2]

Ben Cole &amp; Odunsi (The Engine) direct a&nbsp;trippy promo for Half A Tab.&nbsp;Running at eight minutes in length, the short film opens with a group of friends getting ready to go out, and quickly culminates in a surreal night out full of futuristic fashion and chromatic visual effects.&nbsp;Taking place in an abstract, almost parallel world, the video has a haunting, unique vibe, and perfectly suits the Alté soundtrack.&nbsp;

Iconic pop video director Diane Martel joins forces with Franz Ferdinand frontman Alex Kapranos&nbsp;and Ben Cole to create the video for Billy Goodbye - taken from the Scottish rock band's forthcoming Greatest Hits album.&nbsp;The black and white concept feels&nbsp;experimental and evocative of early music videos, focusing on a group of characters who descend into a riotous party, full of bottle smashing, karaoke singalongs and melodramatic facial expressions.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]Glitchy performance setups, mixed formats&nbsp;and spliced cutaways add a textural element to the concept, aesthetically feeling very much like&nbsp;home-movie segments.The randomness of the content and iconography in several of these scenes also elevates the absurdist nature of the piece.&nbsp;

LA-based creative studio&nbsp;Actual Objects&nbsp;direct a warped portrait of Sega Bodega for his new single, I Need Nothing From You.&nbsp;What starts as a close-up on the artist's face soon glitches, twitches and loses its proportions, as Bodega distorts in real time, morphing from human to something ripped straight from the uncanny valley.&nbsp;Remotely directed from LA, the understated concept lingers far beyond its runtime, unconsciously committing&nbsp;itself to memory&nbsp;ready to reappear as a nightmare somewhere down the line.&nbsp;

Sophie Muller directs the glistening&nbsp;performance video for Kylie’s A Second to Midnight,&nbsp;featuring Years &amp; Years - aka Olly Alexander - and some 'wait, what...?' moments of role-reversal between the two performers.Shot in London's historic Collins' Music Hall, the concept sees the leopard print-clad duo dance around under a spotlight, briefly switching roles - with the clever application of 'hair swap'&nbsp;technology&nbsp;- while the accompanying dancers also 'become' Kylie and Ollie with their use of face masks.&nbsp;&nbsp;Muller collaborated with Theo Adams, in the role of&nbsp;performance director&nbsp;on the song-and-dance routine executed by the pop stars. The results&nbsp;exudes that sense of pure joy that is the hallmark of any great Kylie video, and a complete&nbsp;delight to watch.PRETTYBIRD UK co-founder Juliette Larthe says:&nbsp;"The insanely wonderful pairing of the maverick alchemists of vision and movement, the geniuses&nbsp;of vespertine delights - Sophie Muller and Theo Adams - repeatedly inculcate the aureate of their crafts individually, and now together for the first time with Kylie and Olly. The result is epic-ness of the most MAJORNESS and we utterly love it."

Wowa directs an impressive live performance by Ms Banks for the MOBO Awards, broadcast late last year.&nbsp;Opening in a pastel-hued shop set, four dancers perform fiery choreography as Banks steps into frame, styled head to toe in bubblegum pink.&nbsp;The production design is equally&nbsp;as breathtaking as the performance, which cuts to black before displaying a poignant message: 'They Don't Really Care About Us'.&nbsp;Honouring the Black Lives Matter movement and paying tribute to YouTube star and content creator Nicole Thea - who passed away suddenly last year whilst pregnant with son Reign - the concept switches to an all-black studio set, where Banks gives a career-defining performance - powerful, engaging and truly emotive.&nbsp;Performances like this don't come around all too often, and Wowa has created something truly transcendent and elevated with the visual.&nbsp;
