Avesta Keshtmand directs a slick, studio-set promo for up-and-coming girl group FLO. With a stripped-back, futuristic vibe, we see the trio perform their track Immature in a black infinity studio, with minimalist art direction that suggests a sci-fi, space-inspired environment. The focus here is on introducing viewers to the new group, and with sharp choreography, inspired styling and an effortlessly cool vibe, it's clear why the girls are already creating such a buzz. "With Immature, I wanted to transport FLO into a new aesthetic realm, showing them in power and prowess for their second video," says director Keshtmand.

Beki Mari directs a brilliant performance of It Gets Dark by Sigrid on The Late Late Show with James Corden."Paying homage to a classic rock and roll performance, it’s an idea of extreme contrasts; of black and white, futuristic, raw energy," says Mari. "We play with this stark simplicity and thus light becomes our point of difference."The deceptively simple concept - consisting of a performance in a white cyc studio - emanates huge amounts of energy, elevated by Sigrid and her band's riotous performance and the dramatic lighting cues. "We used a mix of programmed and handheld light to dramatically change the space; from bouncing bright white light to suddenly being plunged into darkness," continues Mari."The effervescence of this contrast then careers us into a new wildness; flashing spots and a drenching of sensory blue until we land softly, sinking into prismic, celestial sparkle - created using mix of handheld foil, laser mirrors and an Astroraggi."Those elements all combine to showcase a stellar performance by Sigrid, reminding us why she is one of today’s most exciting pop stars.

Luke Casey and Alexandra Leese direct a glossy performance promo for Beabadoobee.Stood in the middle of a light-up dancefloor, with a Sunburst Fender slung across her body, we see the artist perform amongst an enthusiastic crowd of friends and fans - and surrounded by a cluster of oversized red-capped mushrooms. The blend of slick, clean art direction and busy composition creates a lively contrast, whilst the fisheye shots and nostalgic camera effects feel like they belong in an ultimate Top Of The Pops performance from the future.

Cyprien Clément-Delmas directs a thought-provoking promo for Moderat. Consisting of artists Sascha Ring (Apparat) and Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary (Modeselektor), the track contemplates the relationship between love and independence, lamenting how vulnerable we become when the balance between the two tips too far forward towards the former.The video for Easy Prey was shot across two days in Barcelona, and explores our heavy reliance on technology and its consequential fragilities and interconnectedness. The abstract narrative vignettes create a palpable energy, which bubbles with mystery and intrigue, whilst developing the aforementioned themes in a fresh and exciting way. “The idea of the music video is to talk about our dependence on technology, the vulnerability of our ultra-connected societies," says Clément-Delmas. "We think we are stronger today but we are somehow weaker. Most of the essentials are now based on technology. "This main character represents the essential workers that make all this happen but are also fed up with society, with what we are expected to be. This is a sort of close dystopia I wanted to create in this film. I think this scenario is not too far away and we might experience something similar sooner or later.”Strikingly executed, with a darkly futuristic vibe and tonnes of atmosphere.

Alessandro Amaducci creates a darkly futuristic animated promo for PROGedia, a mash-up of psychedelic rock and dance beats by Turin-based producer Fed Conti. In the video for Down, a group of lonely androids absorb the energy of the music of the past from a screen, producing a digital hybrid that tries to interpret the sights and sounds. The glitchy textures and unsettling atmosphere of the video perfectly encapsulate the haunting soundscapes of the track, and balances a bittersweet contrast of post-apocalyptic narrative versus our innate appreciation of music - even when our human bodies have evolved to android form.

Louis Browne explores the border between reality and fiction in his thought-provoking promo for COIN. The video for Cutie explores the push and pull of reality and how in the present day, it's hard to tell what is alive, contrived or entirely digital.With that in mind, the ambitious concept represents three different realms that the band exists within, and it took a large, international team to pull it all off - including CG artist Liam Noonan from London, DP Peter Hou from New York and Joanie Del Santo on styling duties. The resulting visual is equal parts utopic and dystopian, a vision of a future that isn't a world away from our current reality... and maybe that's the most unsettling thing about the entire project.

Jay Green is back with visuals for old school banger Don't Know About You by B Live, featuring Becky Hill and JME. The promo makes effective use of Green's VFX skills, as the artists perform in swirling futuristic cubes, which bounce, rotate and distort at random. Like a pinball machine on acid, we switch between these setups in a warped, hyperreal fashion, whilst the overall aesthetic leans heavily into early Noughties retro-futurism. The switch-ups in colour palette and frantic camera movements alongside the energetic performances make this one to remember.

Katy Perry begins the futuristic promo for her collab with Alesso by murmuring into an old fashioned payphone: "I think it's time to give them everything they want." Cue energetic dance scenes, robot dogs, glossy industrial backdrops.Blending high-energy performance shots with beauty setups and an overarching playful vibe, this is the first ever collaboration between pop royalty Perry and Hannah Lux Davis, one of the foremost directors of pop video. The use of choppy editing and glitchy visual effects adds a raw, technological edge to the video, which sets the sleek, machine-tooled video for When I'm Gone slightly apart from other Perry visuals. But then, she is the featured vocalist on this one. It's Alesso's track, and it's undoubtedly a banger.
