After establishing the cinematic &#39;70s Hollywood world in the brilliant <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2016/07/13/midnight-monaco-one-million-nicolas-randall-marc-edouard-leon" target="_blank">One In A Million</a>, Nicolas Randall is back with a development of the story in a new video for Midnight to Monaco.Ricky, the aspiring actor from the previous instalment in this gorgeous-looking narrative saga, now has a singing career and this video sees him build up his first track with the help of the manager who &#39;discovered&#39; him in rather illicit circumstances (again, watch the last video for context).Film some excellent production design and styling, combined with legendary locations like East West studios, the video sells itself as a glistening fictional period piece perfectly. Who knows where Ricky&#39;s career will take him next, but you get the feeling his story is not over yet.

Midnight to Monaco 'One Way Ticket' by Nicolas Randall

Grant Singer&#39;s video for Phantogram&#39;s You Don&#39;t Get Me High Anymore&nbsp;is a dark, passionate desert-set&nbsp;affair. With visceral close-ups of gel moulds being sliced, and the destruction of buildings from the inside out, it&#39;s anything but gentle. Combine that imagery with the impending doom of a gigantic wave,&nbsp;motorbike stunts, BDSM and a rich, saturated colourscape of fierce reds and blues, and you&#39;ve got something in front of you that becomes difficult to define.The title is so incendiary in itself, and Grant Singer has undoubtedly taken his cue from that. And its a territory that he&#39;s familiar with - the thrillseekers&nbsp;who break the mould, smash the monotony, but pay some kind of price in the process.&nbsp;It all feels uncomfortable, self destructive and confusingly sexy.

Phantogram 'You Don’t Get Me High Anymore' by Grant Singer

Phantogram - You Don’t Get Me High Anymore

Nicolas Randall &amp; Marc-Edouard Leon deliver a night-crawling, sleazy and heartbreakingly bleak video for Midnight to Monaco.&nbsp;Tackling the subject of male prostitution in 80s LA was never going to be pretty, and this video makes every scenario seem sinister and cold. Nobody genuinely smiles, there&#39;s no passion in anything seen here and the neon lights of cheap motels illuminate a world cast under Hollywood&#39;s shadow with a sickly glow - beautifully shot, it must be said, by DoP Starr Whitesides.&nbsp;It&#39;s not an easy watch, but it&#39;s certainly a rewarding one - with Midnight To Monaco&#39;s Ricky Ducati convincing&nbsp;in the lead role as the wannabe actor turned hustler.&nbsp;The bookending of the video&nbsp;with a VHS scene adds a sinister, voyeuristic element to a story where the young and the pretty try and thrive and quickly find themselves becoming obsolete.&nbsp;
