The Trash Factory (aka James Arden)&nbsp;continues his collaborative streak&nbsp;with Dylan Fraser, with&nbsp;this transcendent ride for Vampire.The hypnotic visual&nbsp;sees Fraser holding onto featured artist Alaska&nbsp;Reid, as they ride a motorbike through coruscating lights and an abstract otherworld.&nbsp;The theme&nbsp;of showing your worst self in front of a loved one is&nbsp;visualised by a bold step into horror at the end, which acts as a perfect climax to the haunting yet surprisingly intimate promo.&nbsp;

Dylan Fraser ft Alaska Reid 'Vampire' by Trash Factory

Dylan-Fraser-'Vampire-(with-Alaska-Reid)'-by-Trash-Factory

The Trash Factory lives up to his director moniker in this excellent video for Dylan Fraser.&nbsp;In the video for&nbsp;Apartment Complex On The Eastside, we see the artist in a sea of trash, getting pushed around by passing pedestrians until he breaks out into a much roomier exterior space.From the custom set design through to the inspired colour palettes, it's a simple concept that is imbued with passion and creativity, which elevates it to a whole new level.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]<blockquote>I wanted Dylan to be physically overwhelmed...</blockquote>"[The video is about]&nbsp;feeling like the world is fucked, that you're just a passing person in an indifferent urban sprawl, but finding some freedom in that pessimism," says James Arden - aka The Trash Factory.&nbsp;"Built around the thought-provoking opening lyric - 'Someday I will lay beneath some new apartment complex on the Eastside'&nbsp;- I wanted Dylan to be physically overwhelmed by rushing pedestrians who don't give a shit about him. So, continuing my fondness for burying musicians in their own music videos, we decided to throw trash at Dylan until he was engulfed completely.&nbsp;"Visually, this video was heavily inspired by 90s Radiohead promos, the absurd films of Roy Andersson, and one specific shot in Spiderman 2 where Peter Parker is bashed around picking up his books on campus, that I became obsessed with and wanted to include in a video. I'm glad it found its home."&nbsp;And so are we.&nbsp;
