Colin Read has executed an old-school conceptual idea with real emotional impact for Cautious Clay's Wildfire - from his upcoming debut album.Within a single set - a darkened sitting room consisting of a sofa and old-fashioned TV on a chest - Read brings all manner of human life and emotion, as the camera sweeps around repeatedly. And while we see each new scenario and are introduced to a new character, there is also a new iteration of the artist performing the song from within the TV.&nbsp;&nbsp;“Wildfire&nbsp;explores the fact that people’s intentions sometimes get lost in translation,” says Cautious - aka singer-songwriter&nbsp;Josh Karpah - about the song. “Good intention is not always enough to prevent people’s emotions and insecurities from spiralling. Subtle signals or cues can unintentionally ignite emotions - like a brush fire.”And the video delivers on the idea&nbsp;explored by Read and Karpah, on how each individual interprets the artist in a different way - heavily influenced by their current situation - alone and boozy; or on the verge of unbridled passion; or displaying the sensitivity of youth; and so on.The fact that Cautious is not only always changing, but always a really there - a&nbsp;three dimensional head with&nbsp;the TV -&nbsp;seals the deal on this satisfyingly theatrical idea.[imgtoken data:1]

Becky and the Birds - aka Thea Gustafsson - meditates on love and loss in Danica&nbsp;Kleinknecht's brilliant video for Wondering.Focusing on beautiful composition and lighting, DoP Mika Altskan pays homage to Edward Hopper and his iconic paintings, creating the feeling of an outsider looking in, as Gustafsson performs the emotionally affecting track.Anchoring the concept with wistful memories of skating and falling in love with an enigmatic man, every frame is washed with a sense of nostalgia and yearning, to stunning effect.&nbsp;
