Broken Antenna return to music videos with this playful, technically adept video for Fatima and Joe Armin-Jones.The track&nbsp;#1, a song about a lover that’s emotionally disconnected due to past trauma, is paradoxically paired with a visual that demonstrates that love and compassion can still exist. The day to day goings-on in a&nbsp;domestic life are&nbsp;captured in a single tracking move, with its complexity highlighted by an additional layer of video squares, highlighting small details.&nbsp;It's a welcome return to music for the directing duo, whose work includes acclaimed videos for Hak Baker, Clark and Slick Don.&nbsp;

Walid Labri pays homage to Cityboymoe's home in North West London, and the turbulence of growing up there, in his video for City On Fire.&nbsp;Opening in a residential street, overshadowed by the imposing skyline in the background, the video interweaves several refreshingly creative vignettes, touching upon life, struggle and purpose.&nbsp;Building upon the lyrics "these streets that I walk in were never made for me", the soft, ethereal aesthetic is somewhat contrasted by the poignant lyrics, yet feels optimistic in its overtones and is a perfect showcase for the artist and his journey.&nbsp;

A lone choirboy in his choral gown collects fragments of electronic equipment along mudflats in Broken Antenna's poignant video for Clark's Small.The track is taken from the electronic musician and soundtrack composer's latest album&nbsp;Playground In A Lake, released on classical label Deutsche Grammaphon, and features young Nathaniel Timoney on vocals - who plays the beachcoming choirboy&nbsp;in the video.Filmed in the Thames estuary, this is a tonal departure for the directing duo&nbsp;- that's&nbsp;Myles McAuliffe and Gustav Newby&nbsp;- compared to previous videos for&nbsp;Hak Baker and others. But the result is a&nbsp;distinctive vision of a Ballardian 'Drowned World' evoked in Clark's new album,&nbsp;with a splendid&nbsp;performance&nbsp;from their young lead.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]

Glenn Paton captures a house party with a raw and ready vibe in the video for Suck It Up.&nbsp;Shot on Bolex, the video contains&nbsp;layers of different footage throughout, skewed on screen to create a contemporary and experimental aesthetic. A scattering of lo-fi visual effects create&nbsp;a slightly warped sense of perspective, matching the high energy pacing and DoP&nbsp;Alex Reid's use of bold colour.&nbsp;

For their latest video for Hak Baker, Broken Antenna&nbsp;try something different: a mini-drama of a London wedding in the early 2000s, that brings white and black families together, shot entirely on Hi8.Hak and his band provide the entertainment as the wedding party in a local church hall gets into full swing - performing his latest ode, Venezuela Riddim. There's drinking, dancing and other stuff. Tempers fray, connections are made... and fans of Hak Baker's previous videos will not be surprised to learn that&nbsp;the charismatic troubadour&nbsp;is soon in the thick of it.&nbsp;This is&nbsp;a subtle change-up into drama for Broken Antenna - that's Myles McAuliffe and Gustav Newby&nbsp;- which&nbsp;they handle with aplomb. Everything feels right about it - the sizeable cast is pitch perfect, the use of the home video camera helps to deliver that sense of authenticity. And although the wedding is not genuine, the party probably is.An excellent addition to the Hak Baker canon by Broken Antenna, which includes&nbsp;the UKMVA-nominated <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2017/12/19/hak-baker-it-or-lump-it-broken-antenna/51088" target="_blank">Like It Or Lump It</a> and Wonderland.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Myles and Gus of Broken Antenna make a welcome return, bringing a trademark mash-up of live action and lo-fi visual effects to Japanese hipsters Yurufuwa Gang's woozy tour of London.With its disorientatingly slow frame rate and London-themed&nbsp;cut-out animation, it's a pretty-perfect encapsualtion of the band's rebellious attitude and aestethic for their scuzzy anthem No Visa.&nbsp;&nbsp;

OSH takes a journey down memory lane in&nbsp;Lunch Money, directed by Glenn Paton.&nbsp;Walking alongside&nbsp;a younger version of himself, OSH performs across a variety of locations in his community. These are everyday places;&nbsp;betting shops, barber shops, graffiti murals, all of which provide a sense of nostalgia for the past, but also a glimpse into the future generation, who aren't quite as different to us as we often think. They are all retreading the journeys that we took, much like the generation before us, and this idea of cyclicism is explored to great effect.&nbsp;The shooting style helps build upon this idea, mixing together high definition footage with Mini DV and lo-fi mobile phone footage from various events. This anachronistic mix is not only right on-trend, but helps the project feels almost timeless and universal.&nbsp;Strong performances from OSH and the various cast members create a naturalistic, charming vibe that carries through right until the end.&nbsp;

He's a raver&nbsp;who's mad for Acid House - but he's thirty years too late...Joe Wilson's charming video for Paul Woolford &amp; Karen Harding follows the wacky path of a guy who missed it when it happened, but who's determined to enjoy the golden age of rave, even it means doing it all on his own. And all he needs is his imagination, a pair of white gloves and a dab of icing sugar to fulfil his fantasies.What is really good about the video for You Already Know is the knowing and loving recreation of the era, as our deluded hero plays out the archetypal roles, from bouncer to blissed-out raver. A very affectionate, even poignant comedy - for a banger of a house tune.

Jam Baxter,&nbsp;Rag&#39;n&#39;Bone Man and OG Rootz go for a meal at a local restaurant where the maitre &#39;d - played by Perry Benson - promises them extraordinary delicacies. And, in a way, he&#39;s right...Gustav and Myles of Broken Antenna dish up an appetising comic-horror for Mask, where&nbsp;unspeakably monstrous&nbsp;plates of obscure seafood&nbsp;- that&#39;s&nbsp;mostly still breathing - has a grim effect on the pallor and constitutions of the three rappers.The imaginative display of dishes -&nbsp;always just too disgusting to consider that it&#39;s real&nbsp;food - has been created with a very impressive combination of work by art director Jen Gardiner,&nbsp;&#39;food styling&#39; by Huw Caddy and Matthew Harris, puppetry and modelmaking by Emily Morus-Jones, prosthetics by Cesar Alonso, and post work at Cranrust VFX. Very tasty.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

On their quest for the love,&nbsp;Oscar #Worldpeace&nbsp;and Ragz Originaleare comically oblivious to the fact&nbsp;that they are&nbsp;in some of the most romantic scenarios possible because they are&nbsp;ironically glued to&nbsp;their phones, in search of more, in Broken Antenna&#39;s video.&nbsp;&#39;Sliding into dm&#39;s&#39; gets a bright 90s makeover - with plenty of&nbsp;famous romantic films references you can guess at, and then think &quot;they don&#39;t make them like that anymore&quot; &ndash;&nbsp;as directing duo Broken Antenna&nbsp;comment on modern dating and mobile phone culture.It&#39;s&nbsp;a playful criticism of the constant search for something exciting through apps and social media, whilst ignoring the world around you at that moment in time. And Oscar and Ragz make an entertaining double act, with an old school vibe.&nbsp;

Slick Don gets back together with Broken Antenna for Dat Boi, and the result is a super-inventive and energetic video which elevates Don&#39;s performance through some slick, but mostly lo-fi, visual&nbsp;effects.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Gustav and Myles (aka Broken Antenna) mix analogue collage - consisting of 2386 stills printed hand cut out and scanned back in - with phrenetic in-camera match cutting techniques.&quot;To add an extra element of DIY aesthetic we then added extra elements of hand drawn crayon and scanned in some diagrams and labels that we had used in the making of the video,&quot; explain Broken Antenna. It&#39;s an added post-modernist touch that&#39;s going to make this video quite freeze-frameable for camera nerds.

Broken Antenna&#39;s clip for Swet&nbsp;Shop Boys is an explosive celebration of British Asian culture.Riz Ahmed and Himanshu Suri, supported by a cast of Asian youth are carrying fireworks, illuminated&nbsp;by drones and occupying estates in a very intentional play on prejudice. Broken Antenna is setting up a wry bait-and-switch: nothing sinister is about to take place, despite the ideas an audience might get from the images presented to them. The cast light up the night sky in celebration of culture and community, Diwali Style.Swet&nbsp;Shop Boys and Broken Antenna here delivering a distinct piece of political commentary.
