Philip Watson directs an innovative AI visualiser for the return of the BRIT-nominated DJ/producer Riton. This visual for Sugar is a suitably super-sweet, candy-coated AI experiment, developed by the WMG Global Data Science team in conjunction with Atlantic's Kim Jarrett and Daisy King.This was created using Stable Diffusion - which generates images based off of text descriptions - which was further trained on Riton’s face and moodboards. The team were also able to make the visuals react to the audio using AI, isolating audio individual elements and feeding them back into the animation.“It was a really exciting collaboration between data science and Atlantic’s creative team as we refined the aesthetic together," explains Watson, who headed up the visualiser’s creation.Say hello to your most vibrant dreams and vivid nightmares, as this project seamlessly blends the opposing dream states into one magical aesthetic.

We may have just left behind the hottest day on record, but that doesn't stop Lizzie Reid showing off her impressive jumper collection, in Gregg Houston's promo for Warpaint. As Lizzie performs, the jumpers are launched at her from off-screen. She takes it all in her stride, matching the reflective themes of the track, making for a refreshingly simple yet absorbing visual. But it wasn't as simple as it looks, as Gregg Houston explains. "Warpaint is probably the most upbeat song I've heard from Lizzie so my taste for having artists remain like statues in a video wasn't going to work as well here," he says. "Speaking with Chris at the label we decided that as well as showing a fun side - whatever that means - we should also try and show her lovely array of woollen jumpers."It turned out that Lizzie actually had a bit of a phobia about putting jumpers on and things around her neck. I only learnt that on the day. Being a great sport she pressed ahead and we decided to attempt it only three times."When she is struggling in this video it is most certainly real! I find those moments the most revealing and likeable and am so pleased that we got to keep them in."

English five-piece Mallory Knox have received an impressively visceral video for Better Off Without You by That Jam. And thanks to the work of DoP Matt Vahey, the video's photographic treatment is remarkably dynamic, suitably dismal in tone and beautifully varied in texture. With an aim to "complement the blistering energy of the track," That Jam have created a convulsive piece of work, channeling the songwriter's personal story of emotional instability, confusion, over-medication and difficulty in dealing with chronic depression."For many, going to a doctor and speaking about an illness of the mind can be a difficult thing, and can require great courage to accept and admit you no longer have full control of your own thoughts and feelings," the band explained, "to be given a pill and told "see how it goes", or made to wait months to talk for ten minutes to a professional is the reality many face."With the video, the band have addressed the destructive results of society's 'quick fix' mentality, hoping to spread an awareness of the terrible isolation it can bring to mental health patients.
