Nathan Miller directs an effervescent promo for Ezra Collective, featuring Sampa The Great.&nbsp;Shot between London and Lusaka - the capital of Zambia - the video for Life Goes On explores parallels between daily life and culture in the two cities, framed by two dancers - Lauryn Bryan in London, and Jonathan Tupaki in Lusaka - who energetically tear up the streets with breathtaking dance moves.Portrait-style shots and cutaways of the hustle and bustle of the cities - including markets, restaurants, kids playing sports, traffic jams - create a buzzing, palpable energy which underscores the bouncy track.&nbsp;It's wonderfully celebratory and upbeat, a perfect counterpoint to the London jazz outfit Ezra Collective's euphoric tune. And a terrific music video debut by Miller, recently signed to Biscuit Filmworks.&nbsp;

James Murray creates an evocative visual for Wunderhorse - the solo project of Jacob Slater, former frontman of indie outfit The Dead Pretties - for the alluring&nbsp;Butterflies.It's comprised of simple yet strong&nbsp;set-ups that make the most of the interiors lit with natural light, and&nbsp;the urban/rural mix of East London locations, with Slater - who has been cast in the much-anticipated Sex Pistols bio-drama&nbsp;Pistol&nbsp;as the band's drummer Paul Cook - front and centre.Murray&nbsp;exploits&nbsp;his cool, on-screen charisma here, creating a sensibility that's more early Nineties than Seventies - in keeping with the unmistakeable&nbsp;influence of grunge on the track.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Wunderhorse 'Butterflies' by James Murray

Wunderhorse - Butterflies

A young woman pours the ashes of&nbsp;her beloved late mother into her running shoes and leaves her suburban home - wielding a pole vaulter's pole - in a race against time...Hard Drive Gold, the latest release ahead of alt-J's fourth album The Dream (out on Feb 11th)&nbsp;has a video that follows in the tradition of the band's consistently excellent track record in visuals - particularly those that put a different spin on dramatic suspense. In this case, it comes from a new directing duo, consisting of&nbsp;an alt-J bandmember and his partner: Newman-Wallace are the band's singer and guitarist&nbsp;Joe Newman, and&nbsp;choreographer Darcy Wallace.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We follow the young woman - played by Ellie McCartney - as she drags the pole from her garage, and then pounds through nearly empty suburban streets with it, as if she is on the longest-ever pole vaulter's run-up. This striking image is made even more mysterious by the&nbsp;context - the imminence of a nuclear attack and, as a result, the mostly panic-stricken behaviour of her neighbours.[imgtoken data:1]Finally she reaches her destination - but can she complete her leap before the missiles strike?Newman-Wallace's highly cinematic directing debut was shot by Krzysztof Trojnar, and executive produced by Andrew Law, longtime commissioner of alt-J's videos, now head of music and special projects at&nbsp;Biscuit Filmworks."It was a great privilege to work with Joe and Darcy on their debut piece of filmmaking,which I think is a brilliant music video that stands tall next to the rest of the band's enviable canon of work," says Law. "Biscuit and alt-J have worked very successfully together in the past, and we were thrilled to build on that relationship with Hard Drive Gold. Newman-Wallace has a very bright filmmaking future, and we’re all very excited about what happens next.”

Ben Strebel makes a stunning return to music videos with his wonderful&nbsp;video for Skrillex, Starrah and Four Tet’s new track Butterflies - an impressionistic portrait on the impact of a year of Covid crisis upon a generation, which builds to a simply transcendent&nbsp;climax.With some hugely talented&nbsp;collaborators, including choreographer Holly Blakey, DoP Ben Todd, and the&nbsp;VFX team at Electric Theatre Collective, Strebel channels the frustrations of a generation of youth, whose relationships and&nbsp;opportunies have all been curtailed by the successive lockdowns, into a very contemporary work of visual art.On a London estate, an edgy teenager is a ball of energy as they sit in their room, and when a group of youths gather, the group immediately combine to&nbsp;performing Blakey's intricate, physically demanding choreography. Sheets float in the air, at the Chinese takeaway&nbsp;the youths&nbsp;also play ghosts, covered in sheets - and then the path from gritty reality to heightened sensibility spins into outright&nbsp;fantasy, all within the same concrete world.[imgtoken data:1]The climax of the video is wonderful - and that is partly because you do not see it coming. The kids have now become real ghosts, soaring into the air above the concrete,&nbsp;freed&nbsp;to cavort to the strains of this epic electronic collaboration between Sonny John Moore (aka Skrillex), Keiran Hebden (Four Tet), and Brittany Talia Hazzard (Starrah). This is a brilliantly conceived ballet - created with an ingenious execution of VFX work and camera movement.&nbsp;&nbsp;Strebel has created a wonderful visual for Butterflies, the result of not only his own skill and vision, but the ambition and support of Skrillex. The artist and director&nbsp;had been talking for a long time about working together, and Skrillex took&nbsp;a hands-on approach throughout the process, sanctioning the lengthy&nbsp;period in post production required to make it happen.It was well worth the wait.&nbsp;&nbsp;

David Magnier has directed these dramatic visuals about&nbsp;a love gone awry for four-piece indie pop band&nbsp;Causes&#39; Sinking Ship.Following a&nbsp;couple through their ups and downs, the relatable tale chronicles moments in a&nbsp;marriage crumbling to beyond the point of repair. Cutting back and forth between blissful summer picnics,&nbsp;their wedding in the woods, and the fighting&nbsp;that ultimately finishes the relationship, the poignant video places the good along with the bad.And after&nbsp;heightening the stakes,&nbsp;the video ends&nbsp;on a foreshadowing&nbsp;image of the husband letting his wife, still in a wedding dress,&nbsp;fall off a bridge near where they were married.&nbsp;

Causes 'Sinking Ship' by David Magnier

Ish Sahotay&#39;s video for FineArt&nbsp;brings the club to spin class for their 2-step banger&nbsp;Don&rsquo;t Wanna Rush. It&#39;s essentially&nbsp;a modern reworking of the famous/infamous Eric Prydz video for Call On Me, with an all-girl class of professional dancers.Very sadly, Ish Sahotay&#39;s life was cut short soon&nbsp;after shooting this video. The 26 year old had directed several low budget&nbsp;videos,&nbsp;and was just starting to make a serious impact as a director, particularly with his <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2014/11/18/little-boots-taste-it-ish-sahotay" target="_blank">Little Boots video for Taste It</a> &ndash;&nbsp;now shortlisted for Best Dance Video - Budget category at the UK Music Video Awards next month &ndash; when he passed away in June.To celebrate his life, his friend Jake Bulstrode-White created a <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/Ishwer" target="_blank">Go Fund Me</a> campaign to&nbsp;put on an Exhibition of all his work, which took place on&nbsp;the&nbsp;17th July at the Apiary Studios.&nbsp;On the page, Bulstrode-White said this of his friend:&nbsp;&quot;Ish Sahotay was a 26 year old&nbsp;up and coming Director/Photographer. &nbsp;After 4&nbsp;years of working his way up through the industry his career had finally started to flourish, there seemed to be&nbsp;no end to his success.&quot;Tragically on the 16th June 2015 Ish went to bed and didn&#39;t wake up. He was full of so much talent and ideas, anyone that had the honour of meeting him will know how much of a loss to the world his passing was.&quot;&nbsp;
