Rudá Santos's video for Ross From Friends,&nbsp;for the electronic DJ’s new single The Daisy,&nbsp;blends a reverence for speed-cubing competitions and a bittersweet twist worthy of a sci-fi classic.We are transported through a trippy time-warp to an unassuming park, where a young girl discovers a Rubik’s Cube and a timer on a bench. Her passion for ‘speed-cubing’ ignited, we then follow her on a journey where she works to master her skills.Our young heroine progresses to a speed-cubing competition,&nbsp;battling through to reach her goal in time. As she wins the competition, however, viewers are confronted with a surreal twist...&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]Blending an admiration for speed-cubing&nbsp;with the unexpected ending, Rudá Santos also employed 3D animated sequences to bookend the film and reinforce the sci-fi elements. In order to capture authentic, realistic performances, he also chose to cast real Rubik’s Cubers in the promo - including Katie Mouchan-Davies as the main protagonist.

Ross From Friends 'The Daisy' by Rudá Santos

Alex Deitsch returns with a&nbsp;second video for Strawbey, the introspective&nbsp;You Won’t Fall For Anyone.&nbsp;Capturing the psychedelia of 90’s shoe-gaze with the clean studio aesthetics of the early 2000s, the visual is anchored by a melancholic performance from Strawbey - aka Ruben Pope - as he laments a toxic relationship and attraction to a former lover.&nbsp;The concept starts off clean and almost clinical, before distorted VHS textures and washes of bold colour bleed into the image. The use of a static close-up as the hero shot is inspired, whilst the lo-fi aesthetic and understated attitude feel contemporary and on-trend.“The track itself had both a glossy polish and a dreamy atmosphere, so for me the video had to reflect that," says Deitsch. "Ruben and I both like Y2K aesthetics and so infusing that clean visual canvas with a more experimental and expressionist style was a lot of fun.&nbsp;"One specific reference going into it was the iconic cover of My Bloody Valentine’s&nbsp;Loveless -&nbsp;the washed out guitar, hazy reds etc. It all fed into the video.”

A rousing performance by Deaf Havana of their song Boston Square captured by Frederick Lloyd on location in Churchill&rsquo;s house in Putney (where the recent video for Dido was also shot).
&ldquo;I wanted to do something that matched Deaf Havana&rsquo;s new image and sound, but also resonated with the lyrics as it&rsquo;s an incredibly personal and tragic song despite the upbeat nature of it in parts,&rdquo; says Frederick. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s about someone really close to you from your past ending their life and so I wanted to tie together a really strong, emotive performance-based video, that really did the grand, anthemic nature of the track justice.
&ldquo;I wanted to tie in this idea of memory and nostalgia, these fading memories and reflections but also the idea that they are never forgotten, always living within those memories. So I tried to bring some of that across, introducing small, dreamlike moments within a thundering performance from the band.&rdquo;
