Best Music Videos of February 2014

Ben Watt "Hendra" (Rahim Moledina, dir.)

In January 2014, musician, DJ, singer and writer Ben Watt (Everything But The Girl) teamed up with friend and acclaimed Irish film-maker and critic Mark Cousins ('The Story of Film: an Odyssey') to find a new talent to make a short film for the title-track for Watt's new solo album, 'Hendra' - his first for thirty-one years. After running a treatment competition, the winning script came from London-based screenwriter and Slow Cinema devotee, Rahim Moledina.

Tommy Kruise "Hers" (Martin C. Pariseau, dir.)

``Hers``, the latest from Montreal producer Tommy Kruise, is a wash of warm, heady atmospherics reminiscent of a DJ Screw tape warped by radio feedback; it sounds like what being based feels like. It’s the video, though, that’s transcendent. Directed by Martin Pariseau, it presents a day in the life of Bogdan Chiochiu, a real-life, music-obsessed fan of Kruise’s music with Asperger syndrome.
