Eoin Glaister captures the erstwhile ambitions of a frustrated smalltime DJ&nbsp;- played by BAFTA-winning actress Lauren Socha - in his return to music videos for Liverpool DJ-producer Mentis.Glaister&nbsp;captures the tragi-comic trials and tribulations of Kent’s premium mobile party provider, DJ Debs - played with real pathos by the superb Socha - in the video for Excuses, featuring Kate Wild.&nbsp;Her dream is to be a proper superstar DJ in Ibiza. The painful truth is that she is playing children's parties and weddings... if she's lucky.It's a classic comic storyline of the hapless wannabe, whose dreams of fame bear no resemblance to the reality. But in this case, it's made all the more poignant and funny&nbsp;due to Lauren Socha's performance&nbsp;- and by the fact her character begins to realise that she is not destined for stardom. She becomes increasingly disillusioned by her situation - but it's then when things finally start to turn around...&nbsp;Eoin Glaister has done a wonderful job with a great part for a superb actor and a down-at-heel setting that works perfectly for the narrative. Shot on 16mm, using an Arri SR3, this was achieved on what EP Hannah Bellil describes as a&nbsp;"three day escapade with a really close knit team" in the more run-down towns along the Kent coast, which allowed Socha get up to some seaside hijinks, including an 'Ibiza dream sequence' with a&nbsp;jet-ski.&nbsp;“We had so much fun making this," adds Bellil. "Lauren is an amazing talent and the opportunity for Eoin to build in dialogue with her was a total joy. However, I didn’t get to go on the jet ski, so I will be going back... to Ibiza this time.”&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]

Seb Tabe directs a double feature for Cityboymoe's&nbsp;Royal Rumble and Mr Nice Guy.&nbsp;The first video shows the artist reflecting on the dangerous environment around him, with drug deals and violent crime taking place with a day-to-day nonchalance.Tinged with surreal green tones, the aesthetic represents&nbsp;an out of body experience, a theme which is carried into the second video - set in the green fields of the English countryside.&nbsp;In&nbsp;Mr Nice Guy, the sense of Cityboymoe's escape is palpable.&nbsp;But as he walks through the countryside, scenes from his fierce urban life begin to appear on his walk, reflecting his anxiety.Seb Tabe has done a really good job delivering a thought-provoking visual to reflect the important themes in Cityboymoe's lyrics.&nbsp; &nbsp;

SL traverses an overgrown, abandoned Britain in Oliver Jennings' video for Little Bird.&nbsp;Focusing on performance and striking set pieces, the visual jumps from a futuristic tropical apartment to rural landscapes inhabited by flocks of sheep, before moving on to the deserted streets of London.&nbsp;Charmingly offbeat and paying homage to a variety of different genres and concepts, SL thrives in each of the vignettes, bringing lots of confidence and presence to each scene.&nbsp;

As we know, no Glastonbury this year. No festivals at all. It hardly seems possible. But&nbsp;this could be the closest you get to a transcendent experience in a field:&nbsp;Joe Wilson's video for Just Hold On, the latest collaboration between Sub Focus and Wilkinson, takes us into the private rave of two friends, at golden hour.&nbsp;Set in&nbsp;countryside&nbsp;peppered with rocky structures and lush scenery, the two girls drink, dance and smoke the evening away as the sun sets. Or possibly rises. The&nbsp;video evokes carefree snapshots of youth and friendship, beautifully visualised by&nbsp;Ed Hubert's loose and experimental cinematography.Things start in fairly straightforward narrative form, but then the imagery begins to reflect the girls' state of trippy bliss. Film frames blur, and then double-expose: grainy textures&nbsp;are laid upon frenzied close-ups, building into a glitchy kaleidoscope of memories, dissipating as quickly as they formed. Just like you're having the time of your life in the Green Fields this midsummer...

Balcony have lust on the brain in Regina Sepp's video for Girls.&nbsp;Performing in a pastel pink and blue&nbsp;studio space, the band - who recently landed a supporting spot with Lewis Capaldi - give a high-energy performance, with each band member dropping into choreography and interacting with the camera. Intercut&nbsp;with several suggestive cutaways - including the caressing of various fruits and phallic cream spraying - the visual is a quirky and offbeat representation of the complex feelings we have around sex and love.&nbsp;

NOISY pack a punch in Thomas Davis' exhilarating video for Bring The Drums Back.&nbsp;Capturing youth culture through a set of action-packed vignettes, the visual is the second collaboration between Davis and the group, and explores the lyrics "All I&nbsp;wanna do is make a scene, that’s my generation, get what I&nbsp;mean".&nbsp;Shot on 16mm, DoP&nbsp;Ed Hubert isn't afraid to get experimental, spinning the camera at crazy dutch angles and lighting&nbsp;scenes with vivid pops of primary colour, adding to the free and unabashed aesthetic. The main focus of Bring The Drums Back is&nbsp;energy - Davis takes dual roles as director and editor, and does a great job at maintaining a quickfire pace.&nbsp;

Two smalltown dreamers search for meaning in the present moment&nbsp;in Joe Wilson's video for Sub Focus.&nbsp;&nbsp;Opening in the middle of a field, the pair are lying on the floor shirtless, laughing in a drugged-up haze as they watch the sun set.As we follow them through the vast hills, they meet up with a couple of girls to make out, siphon fuel from a truck on the side of the road and pick some suspicious-looking mushrooms from a farm.Laidback and carefree, the video pays homage to Modjo's Lady, mirroring the unbridled youthful energy that was just as enduring back in 2000 as it is almost twenty years later in this video.&nbsp;Aesthetically reminiscent of the 80s and 90s, the hazy lighting and soft focus are both charming and nostalgic, lending a universal vibe to the project.&nbsp;

Glenn Kitson helps AMA celebrate everyday life in his video for Crystal. Shot across South London, the visual includes a selection of AMA's friends as cast, and in her own words-&nbsp;"'Crystal' really is about that moment when you're certain you've found what you're looking for, or what seems like you've been missing and nobody else can take your focus. For the video,​ I really just wanted to capture the energy of the song and be around the people that I love, so that's what we did."The concept works&nbsp;well,&nbsp;as&nbsp;you can feel the love and chemistry between everyone on-screen. Some interesting camera rigs provide fresh camerawork, spinning and floating around the setups, whilst AMA's performance is focused purely on fun and having a good time. It's a great video, with a great track to match.&nbsp;

Jimothy Lacoste, the deadpan preppy London teenage rapper, who has built a fanbase with his (presumably) tongue-in-cheek videos for <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvGpoKhTbVA" target="_blank">Getting Busy</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1y6K3eq1KOw" target="_blank">I Can Speak Spanish</a> and more, makes a step up in slickness (musically and visually) with his new one for Getting Talkative.Jimothy waxes philosophical&nbsp;about the&nbsp;stress levels of everyday life, in the video directed by Glenn Kitson - accompanied by at least one, and sometimes three dancing mini-mes. Onscreen lyrics and cheesy FX aplenty, and combined with the self-assured charisma of Jimothy which makes this very enjoyable.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Incorporating vintage footage of the postwar immigration experience, from the Windrush generation onwards, and haunting references to Grenfell, the video for Rudimental&#39;s Toast To Our Differences by directing collective Cousin is a melting pot of emotion.Ultimately, with the video centring around a happy gathering of band and special guests - including Brixton&nbsp;legend Steve Blacker, the subject of Molly Dineen&#39;s superb doc Being Blacker -&nbsp;&nbsp;this is an uplifting statement of London&#39;s rich diversity, and the music that has come out of it.

Oliver Jennings and Nines reunite for I See You Shining - a line lifted from cult flick Paid In Full, and a bold declaration of appreciation that inspired this hugely entertaining video.Starting off the day with a bowl full of heathy greens, Nines proceeds to whip a pot in the middle of a snow-stormed kitchen and later levitate in between the blocks on his estate. A really audacious&nbsp;blend of the gritty and the dreamy.
