London Grammar "Night Call" (Andre Chocron, dir.)

London Grammar's Night Call is a cover of the classic song by French Electro House outfit Kavinsky. Originally used as the title track for the 2010 remake of DRIVE starring the beloved Ryan Gosling (who is now expecting a child with Eva Mendezes, but that who cares!)

If you don't know - London Grammar are the latest electro pop group hailing from Nottingham with roots deep in the earlier works of Nelly Hooper, Massive Attack, Portishead and the whole trip-hop genre which came and went like tamagochi's of the same era!

Superchunk "Void" (Scott Jacobson, dir.)

Chris Rock once said that you never wanna be the old guy in the club. Though he was speaking in a hip-hop context, that adage may apply to the Brooklyn hipster scene as well.

Exhibit A: this vid from Superchunk, featuring Jon Glaser (Parks & Rec, Human Giant), Jon Benjamin (who Has A Van), and Ted Travelstead, [and Superchunk's own Jon Wuster]

Now, I gotta find a black Security tee of my own...

Lena Fayre "Love Burning Alive" (Leah McKissock, dir.)

The video begins with Lena walking to a typical day of class at her private catholic high school. Once seated, she begins to daze off and stare at a boy sitting in the front row. Suddenly, the video enters a dreamscape of performances that are centered around her burning desire for the classmate. In her mind he's a badass with tattoos, who smokes cigarettes and rides a motorcycle. Although their passion can only exist in fantasy, Lena wants it to last forever.
