Duncan Loudon's latest collaboration with electronic musician William Phelps - aka Tourist -&nbsp;is an&nbsp;excursion, with echoes of a past summer.The video for the brilliant Outside is a firsthand motorbike journey, a lone biker's trip from England to mainland Europe&nbsp;via the Channel ferry, captured&nbsp;on a 90s DV camcorder.&nbsp;The film unfolds like a personal travelogue, with the rider’s face remaining unseen, and his trip compressed into moments by the mostly rapidfire edit.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shifting between raw POV shots and quiet roadside pauses, it feels immersive and carefree. The combination of subject matter and the early digital aesthetic captures the warmth and freedom of a summer road trip that echoes the song’s spirit. And that track is an absolute banger.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;

Following up from the visualisers for Donahoo's Chicken&nbsp;and Human?, Vincent Haycock directs a surreal promo for LA rapper&nbsp;Maxo's next single.The visual for Mars Is Electric&nbsp;introduces a new Maxo - dressed in a sky print suit and wearing an unnerving prosthetic oversized smile on his face&nbsp;- as&nbsp;he enters the world of&nbsp;normal Maxo on a park bench.The character represents the artist's public face and also his inner voice on this highly idiosyncratic track. The effect is slightly unnerving, and another intriguing insight into the creative world of Maxo.&nbsp;

Vincent Haycock directs an offbeat, lo-fi promo for LA rapper Maxo.The video for Donahoo's Chicken sees a group of young men in a bathroom, playing the track (and performance visual) on one of their phones.&nbsp;Moments later, a fight erupts between the men, and we see the scuffle interspersed with footage from the phone, which continues to play amongst the mayhem.&nbsp;Shot in a DIY style, the video builds to a very surreal moment at the end. It's part of the off-kilter visual landscape for the new Maxo album, Mars Is Electric, that was first previewed with Haycock's&nbsp;video for first single&nbsp;Human?

Director duo King She create a brilliantly imaginative promo for&nbsp;French-Cameroonian artist Yamê.The visually striking promo for Shoot draws from&nbsp;a&nbsp;pivotal fall in Yamê’s childhood, which&nbsp;shaped both his distinctive jawline and teeth.&nbsp;King She developed the narrative around the theme of falling, using it as a metaphor for self-discovery - and the concept was&nbsp;rooted not only in Yamê’s experience but also in a similar event from the director’s own past.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]Opening with young Yamê falling and breaking open - revealing a giant stone version of himself filled with an Escher-like inner world. Inside, countless versions of Yamê wander through surreal corridors and shifting rooms, each encounter representing different incarnations of his struggles.Yamê wanted the video to feel like a video game - each scene unlocking a new level of his consciousness. The motorcycle chase, for instance, plays like an action sequence from a psychological game, while other sections mirror 'boss fights'&nbsp;with darker parts of the self.[imgtoken data:2]&nbsp;This structure gives the film a pulsing energy and dreamlike progression, allowing for a distinct visual language in every scene.&nbsp;Filmed at Villa Arson, a fine arts school in Nice, the video uses the geometric austerity of brutalist architecture to evoke authenticity and material honesty.Yamê’s Cameroonian heritage also plays a key role in the visual storytelling. After showing King She the spiral architecture of traditional villages in his ancestral homeland—structures that echo early conceptions of the galaxy—the filmmakers integrated this motif throughout the video. It all culminates in a final shot that honors African cosmology and architectural traditions.[imgtoken data:3]To portray Yamê’s journey through a shifting, Escher-like mental maze, the filmmakers combined in-camera effects, practical set builds, and a range of post-production techniques—including keyframe scaling, 2D animation, CGI, and AI-generated imagery.&nbsp;Key VFX partner MONUMENTAL FX provided standout CGI and set extension work, bringing to life the surreal architecture of Yamê’s internal world. During production, the team 3D-scanned Yamê which enabled the creation of the giant stone figure featured in the video’s opening.[imgtoken data:4]Every visual choice was designed to render emotional conflict as external chaos and immersive art. The end result is a rich, cinematic journey through the complex architecture of the self. Outstanding work.&nbsp;

Dan Streit returns with&nbsp;alt-hip hop duo Paris Texas turning the pair into conjoined twins, and their Faustian pact with a magical sword.In true Dan Streit style, off-the-wall humour meets mind-boggling visual effects in the video for They Left Me With The Sword - with an underlying sense of pathos at the predicament of the hapless Felix and Louis from the band.And this ludicrous, fantasy-esque tale keeps us on our toes right until the end - take nothing for granted in this one -&nbsp;until its fairly&nbsp;clear that having your dreams come true can be a double-edged sword.And then Part Two, They Left Me With A Gun, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXeYSZQlFnQ" target="_blank">continues this absurd tale to it's devastating conclusion</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Tajana Tokyo celebrates the joy of dancing in this infectious promo for Mercury Prize-winners Ezra Collective.The video for God Gave Me Feet For Dancing tells a classic story of young people - a boy and a girl -&nbsp;who&nbsp;express their attraction to each other through dance. Only they are much better dancers than most people.Performing under bright, tracking spotlights, the dancers - Michelle Zan and Kitz Katika -&nbsp;make the most of the nighttime exterior locations, effortlessly transitioning from place to place. In some respects&nbsp;it has a theatrical, old Hollywood vibe, reminiscent of vintage musicals and on-stage theatre productions.&nbsp;Bracketed by naturalistic shots of the characters talking and drinking outside a pub, the concept is presented as an escapist fantasy that's also realistic, and does a brilliant job of visualising the upbeat music.&nbsp;

Creative director&nbsp;Ruth Bellotti directs a stunning short music film for Palace.&nbsp;A heavyweight in the advertising world, Bellotti had the concept in mind before linking up with the band, and it has&nbsp;translated perfectly to its current format.&nbsp;The video for Nightmares &amp; Ice Cream follows&nbsp;a cult ritual that slowly descends into a competitive cry-off as the different members all attempt to prove themselves worthy of salvation."The short was conceived after watching too many cult documentaries during the pandemic," Bellotti explains."I was inspired by the kind of people that join these groups and their delusional hope of finding a more peaceful and utopian existence away from the stresses of everyday life. The song speaks to their dreams of getting into this magical place.”Featuring some beautifully unhinged performances, the video has an eccentric, offbeat energy, and is utterly absorbing from start to end.&nbsp;
