Nicolas Randall's first solo outing at new home Love is the compelling new Filthy Dukes video.
The idea of contagion may be a sensitive one at the moment, but who can resist the headlight- hand and jerky-robot body movement disease that's coming out of the telly down at the hostel
Nicolas - formerly part of the Family directing collective - and his excellent team have created a very well-crafted, properly atmospheric, and slightly creepy video for the Dukes' dance anthem. Bloody good going.

The Filthy Dukes’ Messages by Nicolas Randall

Friendly Fires are a band to get properly excited about, and their new video for the fantastic Paris is properly clever and suitably gorgeous.

And after all the MVAs shenanigans, new videos are back on Promo...

Chris Sweeney on making the video for Friendly Fires' Paris
"I bought a kaleidoscope and took it to bits - taking things to bits is one my favourite things to do. And what I found is that a kaleidoscope is essentially a revolving surface with mirrored walls that infinitely reflects plastic shapes in the middle outwards, to create a pattern.
So I wanted to make a giant version of this, that the guys in the band could replace the plastic shapes, and they could basically become the pieces of the kaleidoscope creating shapes that would make giant kaleidoscope patterns.
"I spent the best part of a fortnight with a mini-kaleidoscope pressed up to my eye, to see what kind of things make cool patterns. So if anyone saw me peering in to a dustbin with some mirrors attached to my face I do apologise.
"So what we did was build an 18ft wall of mirrors that enclosed a revolving dancefloor - I am realising this all sounds very Timberlake - and then gave the guys giant versions of things that you get in a kaleidoscope, like massive silver balls and star shapes. Plus other things that we knew would make cool patterns, like the umbrellas and light tubes. Then we shot it from above.
