Directing duo Nono+Rodrigo direct a haunting promo for up and coming Spanish artist Judeline.&nbsp;The video for Mangata is a hazy, hallucinatory trip, dripping with religious iconography and a disquieting sense of dread.&nbsp;From dramatic character study to plaintive silence and mysterious house party, the video spans a range of evocative scenes that build upon the pulsating track. A beautifully crafted work which brings Nono + Rodirgo triumphantly back into the music video orbit.[imgtoken data:1]"There is something magnetic in Judeline - in her music, her lyrics, and her presence - something that strongly captivated us when, in 2021, we started talking about working together," says Nono, one half of the directing team."We shot this in Cadiz, where Judeline and I come from. {It's] a&nbsp;magical place full of tales and mystery. Being inspired by the local culture and folk and merging them with references of our favorite directors such as Zulawski, Erice, and Polanski and the photographers Pérez Siquier, Esperanza Manzanera, and García Rodero."

Olivia Rodrigo encounters a hotel reception full&nbsp;of ex-girlfriends in Mitch Ryan's&nbsp;video for Obsessed - from her hit album Guts.Like a beauty parade of prom queens, these girls have sashes that present their characteristics as defined by the male who dumped them. An interesting idea that's not developed further, as Rodrigo switches to performance mode.[imgtoken data:1][imgtoken data:2]

Brendan Yates's video for Thick Skull picks up exactly where his previous Paramore video ended - and in some ways overlaps, providing a metaphor-laden visual conclusion to the This Is Why&nbsp;album campaign.&nbsp;It's a follow up project to Yates' multi-layered promo for title-track&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIYJ7VaSxYY" target="_blank">This Is Why</a>&nbsp;- released in back in September 2022 - and slowly reveals an enigmatic narrative to complement the brooding nature of the song.&nbsp;

Olly Alexander's Dizzy - the UK's entry to Eurovision 2024 - gets a suitably head-spinning and brilliantly theatrical&nbsp;visual from Colin Solal Cardo.Feeding on the song's intrinsic&nbsp;disco&nbsp;drama, the scenario is intense and even downbeat as Olly stares from the window of his claustrophobic cottage. But in a constant swirl of movement of the camera, the set and Alexander himself, the director breaks down the perceptions of reality to create a piece worthy of a major musical production.As Olly jumps through the fourth wall of observation to reach different sets within the sound stage, the video keeps time with the incessant momentum of the song - which is a grower.Will they dare to try to replicate this at the show itself?[imgtoken data:1]

LOOSE &amp;&nbsp;UNCANNY join forces to direct this dazzling visual for Fred Again.., Lil Yachty &amp; Overmono - filmed prior to an epic rave at Knockdown Center in New York City.&nbsp;The video for Stayinit has a remarkably simple yet hooky concept - to show Lil Yachty's reaction to hearing the song on a proper sound system for the first time, hours before the event at Knockdown, on&nbsp;February 8th 2024.Of course, given the scale of the venue and the coruscating light show beaming above his head, it soon turns into a captivating display of the relationship between the music and the environment.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]“As soon as LOOSE talked to me about the idea of making this video together, I knew that it had to be shot on film - it just made sense," says George Muncey of UNCANNY.&nbsp;"I think everyone was particularly blown away with how the film’s latitude handled the intentional overexposure of the lights. I kept bringing up a reference from Oppenheimer in pre-production where they utilise a similar technique, and I’m really stoked with how it ended up coming across, with Yachty being completely swallowed up and enveloped by the lights."Mika [Altskan], the incredible DP, instilled so much confidence for the boundaries of how far we could push the film to it’s limits, and I have endless gratitude for him and how beautiful he made the video.”

Fashion photographic/directing entity TORSO moves squarely into the vanguard of music video with an edgy promo&nbsp;for the first release from Charli XCX's new album - in an 'access all areas' extravaganza set at Charles De Gaulle Airport.Having established a reputation on stunning fashion films for Mugler's fashion collections, creative directed by Casey Cadwallader, and others, TORSO's music video debut came for Kali Uchis. Now comes a really big one, for Von dutch, from the superstar singer-songwriter's upcoming album&nbsp;Brat.Arguably in other hands the concept behind the video could be considered rather tacky, with shades of Smack My Bitch Up - Charlie in a sexy fight with a POV stalker/assailant all over the airport, shedding layers of clothing in the process. But there's no doubt who is boss here. TORSO place Charli in a space that works really well for her: fast-moving action, treading a line between glamour and outrage, humour and danger.A big statement of intent for the new album campaign.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

Brook Linder explores the absurd mundanity of everyday life, in his riveting promo for the returning Kings Of Leon.&nbsp;The video for comeback single Mustang is made up of hundreds of high-angle zoom shots, capturing bland scenes from an exciting, chaotic vantage point.&nbsp;The zoom lens photography evokes 70s classics of New American Cinema like The Conversation and The Parallax View, but Linder throws the homage off-kilter with the ordinary-yet-weird stuff happening in front of the camera.&nbsp;From kids' birthday parties to priests smoking and LARP roleplay events, the video captures the&nbsp;true essence of humans in our everyday monotony, contrasting these shots with captivating performance portraits of the band.&nbsp;

David Helman returns to music videos to direct a highly idiosyncratic and enjoyable promo for IDLES.&nbsp;The video for Gift Horse takes place at big-box superstore, which&nbsp;hosts an increasingly eclectic cast of apathetic, transgressive individuals.&nbsp;There's kissing in the aisles, balaclava-adorned kids doing a TikTok dance and newlyweds on a travellator, in an anxiety-inducing, maximalist vision that is impossible to tear your eyes away from.&nbsp;Charmingly strange, anachronistic&nbsp;and over-the-top - what more could you want from an IDLES video?&nbsp;

IDLES 'Gift Horse' by David Helman

It's a straightforward, yet ingenious&nbsp;idea - perform the song while going through a real car wash. But without the car...&nbsp;Alex Lill has a track record of making spectacular one-shot videos - like the dance sequence performed by cars for The Weeknd's performance at the American Music Awards during the pandemic. And his creativity finds a perfect foil in Tierra Whack and her wildly off-kilter visual universe.Tierra made a video for every one of her 15 one-minute tracks on Whack World, but she probably gives her best performance in a vid in this one. Well, it was certainly the most challenging. And the shot of her finally under the dryer of the car wash is a thing to behold. A wonderful video.
