Guy Gooch, <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/news/2023/11/24/guy-gooch-joins-stink-rising-roster-global-representation/84312" target="_blank">just signed to Stink Rising</a>, directs another promo for up-and-coming singer-songwriter Ray Laurél, stepping&nbsp;away from his wheelhouse of technical, gritty ideas to explore a choreography and performance-driven music video - performed by&nbsp;Laurél himself.Gooch and Laurél have previously collaborated on a number of the artist’s music videos - <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2022/08/04/ray-laur%C3%A9l-unconditional-guy-gooch-ray-laur%C3%A9l/77718" target="_blank">Unconditional</a>, <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2022/11/18/ray-laur%C3%A9l-charles-jeffrey-guy-gooch/79333" target="_blank">Charles Jeffrey</a>, and U SAID! - all of which have taken a mixed-media approach, with live action augmented by lo-fi animation techniques.&nbsp;For My Luv, things are more straightforwardly cinematic, as&nbsp;the duo set out to explore the theme of ‘other-isation’, particularly within the context of queer identity.Laurél,&nbsp;who uses they/them pronouns,&nbsp;performs a lyrical dance metaphor that represents their conflict with social binarism;a strong and expressive performance, representing&nbsp;an internal and physical battle with themselves and the expectations inflicted upon them.[imgtoken data:1]

Ray Laurél 'My Luv' by Guy Gooch

Ray-Laurél-'My-Luv'-by-Guy-Gooch

In his latest foray into directing, Freddie Wright orchestrates a supernatural mystery&nbsp;for alt-rock band Palace's atmospheric&nbsp;When Everything Was Lost.&nbsp;It begins with a young man alone in an apartment, surrounded by coruscating lights and shadows,&nbsp; which&nbsp;slowly reveal ethereal illusions and haunting snapshots of memories. A young woman becomes a distant presence in the house.&nbsp;The young man is eventually&nbsp;transported to a lake, before fighting for a way back to the house -&nbsp;and the girl.&nbsp;The ghost story-cum-horror aesthetic and structure fit&nbsp;perfectly with the music, whilst&nbsp;the ambitious cinematography&nbsp;nd visual effects feel cinematic and inspired throughout.&nbsp;

Milo Blake harnesses the explosive energy of Royal Blood, through the experience of one audience member at a tumultuous gig, in his promo for Mountains At Midnight.The blistering video&nbsp;is a sensory exploration of the chaotic but cathartic euphoria you feel at a gig or a rave, when you are surrounded by others who are on the exact same frequency as you. Through flailing limbs and frenetic&nbsp;movement, the lead character&nbsp;flits between a packed-out space and one where she’s fully immersed and lost in the music, as the Brighton duo perform the track, the first release from their new album.It's a riotous, full-on visual with a grimy, monochromatic&nbsp;aesthetic, and&nbsp;Rich Woolway's thrilling cut reflects the rowdy atmosphere in the concept.[imgtoken data:1]

Royal Blood 'Mountains At Midnight' by Milo Blake

Charlie Di Placido shows his trademark skill in bringing choreography to the screen in&nbsp;this joyous promo for Jessie Ware.&nbsp;Inspired by Ware’s time in Brazil, the&nbsp;video for Begin Again features Ware as the central figure throughout the concept, as she moves across two polarised spaces embracing shadows and surrounded by dancers.Packed full of energy, the video is terrific showcase for the continued reinvention of Jessie Ware as a great singer having fun with the concept of being a proper diva, in an invigorating and unique way.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;"I’m a massive fan of Jessie's music and this album feels like a seminal musical moment for her - so this was real privilege of a project to work on," says Di Placido&nbsp;- a recent guest&nbsp;on The Promonews Podcast.&nbsp;"Her work ethic and personality really shone through during rehearsals and she was a joy to work with and so generous with her dancers."The video for Jessie Ware comes at a hugely busy time for Di Placido, who has been directing videos for the new Everything But The Girl album, as well as continuing his long association with Jungle, co-directing videos with the band's J Lloyd for their new visual album project."Dance is at the centre of everything I do as a director and a huge part of my day-to-day working life," he continues. "The infectious energy and creative boundary-pushing my dancers and choreographers bring to my projects is an endless source of inspiration. This was no different&nbsp;and working closely with Olivier Casamayou from I COULD NEVER BE A DANCER, we found a performance that was both true to Jessie and the uplifting feeling of the music."Pete Bishop is an exciting young cinematographer I hold in high esteem and I love the look he achieved for the video, topped off by another stunning grade from my colourist Alex Gregory of No.8 London.”

Jessie Ware 'Begin Again' by Charlie Di Placido

Jessie Ware - Begin Again

A woman falls in love with the Fatberg - yes, you heard right - in Eoin Glaister's marvellously&nbsp;entertaining return to music videos for Sam Dust, aka LA Priest.It's a tale both charming and ludicrous - in other words, classic Eoin Glaister territory - as a house cleaner (played by comedy actor&nbsp;Juliet Cowen) peers into a street drain on her way home from a hard day's work, and sees an&nbsp;amorphous blob of grease and fat - who looks back at her. And they fall head-over-heels for one another...What follows is a both lovely and a little bit disgusting, as Cowen ventures into the sewer system to properly meet the Fatberg, and we follow the inevitable steps of the relationship - the wooing, the (ahem) physical relationship, the arguments, the peace offerings of wet wipes and non-biodegradable products down the loo. And like all stories of star-cross'd lovers, it's not going to end well - but even then, love prevails. Kind of...[imgtoken data:1]It's Eoin Glaister's second video for Sam Dust, formerly of Late of the Pier, as LA Priest, and was shot in London over two days on 16mm.&nbsp;“The first video I made with LA Priest involved letting an untrained pack of dogs lick liver paste out of his ears, so I was somewhat surprised to get a call regarding It’s You -&nbsp;but&nbsp;needless to say l leapt," he says. “The track is about someone falling in love with a mermaid, but the time of year meant I kept running into safety issues with any water-based ideas. A fatberg provided an altogether greasier route."A few Mighty Boosh references later and we were away. Eternally grateful to the fabulous crew who went above and beyond to bring this to life on Valentine’s Day and to our stars, veteran genius Juliet Cowan, and Vanessa Del Bosco whose zen-like patience made the project possible. Watch out for a fabulous Flusher cameo from LA Priest.”

Jordan Hemingway directs another visceral promo for Yves Tumor - part surreal fever dream, part&nbsp;Gulliver's Travels&nbsp;homage.&nbsp;The video for Echolalia features the artist being nailed into the ground by a host of miniature characters (all played by Tumor too). One of whom eventually punctures a nail right through his heart.&nbsp;With the same heavily-textured, provocative aesthetic as Tumor and Hemingway's previous collaborations - including for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2022/11/09/yves-tumor-god-circle-jordan-hemingway/79154" target="_blank">God Is A Circle</a> -&nbsp;the video is another peek into the world the artist and director have co-created, marked by an unsettling, otherworldly vibe and&nbsp;a uniquely gothic style of nostalgia.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;[imgtoken data:2][imgtoken data:3]

Tash Tung directs a heartfelt, poetic promo for&nbsp;Lucinda Chua - featuring&nbsp;Chua&nbsp;alongside 9 year-old actor Coco Bridger as Chua’s younger self.The richly cinematic narrative for Golden starts as Lucinda as Yian, confined in the isolation of a mosquito net, discovering&nbsp;Yian Yian, similarly alone. Yian Yian offers her both punishment and salvation, as Lucinda comes to understand and accept herself fully.[imgtoken data:1]Ethereal and tender, the gentle camera movement and sharp focus on composition and space help reveal the story, whilst leaving plenty open to interpretation.&nbsp;Assembling a production team of London’s leading East and South East Asian creatives, the crew includes&nbsp;executive creative producer Tiger Hagino Reid, producer Cheruto Wang, production designer Erin Tse, movement director Duane Nasis and photographer Milo Van Giap.

Etta-Marcus-'Nosebleed'-by-Jesse-May-Fisher

Etta Marcus inhabits a dark and dreamy world where potent feminine power unfurls, in Jesse May Fisher's promo for Crown.&nbsp;In a blank studio space, the video starts traditionally enough, with plenty of posing and performance, until Marcus' hair starts to grow, wrap and envelop her body.&nbsp;Darkly tender and intimate, the cinematic visual is a powerful introduction to the artist, and suits the poignant soundscapes of the enigmatic track.&nbsp;
