After the fun and games at Crystal Palace swimming pool for <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2016/06/21/kaiser-chiefs-parachute-ed-sayers" target="_blank">Parachute</a>, Ed Sayers takes&nbsp;Kaiser Chiefs for another day out, with very watchable results.For Hole In My Soul the band, director and crew headed for Knockhill Race Track in Scotland, and all the band - not just&nbsp;singer Ricky Wilson, the high-diving hero of Parachute &ndash; don the gear, and get behind the wheels of a set of souped-up Honda Civics to burn some rubber.Once again, a sense of fist-pumping fun is evident in the whole enterprise, and that&#39;s&nbsp;wholly appropriate for&nbsp;this unabashed arena-friendly&nbsp;anthem. It&#39;s expertly filmed too, and a reminder that watching people racing fast cars is never going to be boring if its done properly. You just need the right people behind the wheel.&nbsp;Ricky for Top Gear, perhaps?&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Kaiser Chiefs 'Hole In My Soul' by Ed Sayers

Kaiser-Chiefs-'Hole-In-My-Soul'-by-Ed-Sayers

The Kaiser Chiefs are back, and Ed Sayers has singer Ricky Wilson&nbsp;vying for approval from his bandmates from the diving board.It&#39;s a fun, warm and colourful video that sees Wilson take on some high-dives in a set of progressively more ridiculous costumes (we&#39;re talking sky diver through to superhero by way of Victorian Bird Man here).We&#39;re also treated to some underwater lip-sync, which is no mean feat, and the whole thing (bar the opening shot) is in 4:3 aspect ratio - possibly a little nod to Sayers&#39; Super 8 roots (he&#39;s the founder and maestro behind the Straight 8 competition).&nbsp;We invited Ed to shed a little more light on the production...

Kaiser Chiefs 'Parachute' by Ed Sayers

Kaiser-Chiefs-'Parachute'-by-Ed-Sayers

Ed Sayers&#39; film for Speech Debelle&#39;s song Terms &amp; Conditions is an&nbsp;unusual hybrid between short drama with elements of documentary and a proper&nbsp;music video with a heavy&nbsp;theatrical slant. The latter aspect is not surprising&nbsp;as it was made&nbsp;in association with the legendary Royal Court Theatre.British hip-hop artist and poet Debelle meets with actress Georgina Campbell (Murdered By My Boyfriend), who ushers her through a secret door into the Royal Court itself, for a session of improvised workshopping, which morphs into Speech Debelle&#39;s real one-off show at the theatre last summer.The song itself explores toxic relationships, and Speech Debelle explains that in the film Georgina Campbell performs the role of her alter-ego. And this works because the singer and the actress have a palpable onscreen chemistry.&quot;We go back and forth like tennis and, although it&rsquo;s another person, it&rsquo;s really reflecting a relationship I had with myself,&quot; says Debelle.&nbsp;&quot;Ed came up with the idea of us mirroring, which features throughout the video. We wanted it to be as though you can&rsquo;t tell what&rsquo;s reality and what&rsquo;s fantasy.&quot;

Speech Debelle 'Terms & Conditions' by Ed Sayers

Speech Debelle - Terms & Conditions

In keeping with the band&#39;s natural and earthy vibe, Ed Sayers and Bear&#39;s Den travel to the serene and beautiful&nbsp;Bantham Beach in&nbsp;Devon for the promo to Agape, which sees the West London folksters get progressively immersed in the dank sand - in fear of the incoming crashing tide. Simple and gorgeously effective.
