Illenium "Crashing" (Joshua Lipworth, dir.)

‘Crashing’ is Illenium’s first live action music video. The story follows the tragic collision of two souls, told through intense staccato visuals and a fiery burned orange colour palette.  A dizzying array of specialist teams pulled off the impossible and managed to fit car crashes, pyrotechnics, drone-lights, high-speed pursuits and wire work into single long winter night on a Kiev forest road. 

Loyle Carner "Sun of Jean" (Joao Retorta, dir.)

With his debut album ‘Yesterday’s Gone’ nominated for tonight prestigious Mercury prize, Loyle Carner releases the new video for ‘Sun of Jean’ with Joao Retorta back at the helm.  

A nostalgic, honest and delicate depiction of unconditional love between mothers and their sons, exquisitely executed by Joao.

Everything crossed for tonight, a worthy winner we reckon.

Loyle Carner "The Isle Of Arran" (Georgia Hudson, dir.)

Loyle Carner's new video 'The Isle Or Arran' directed by Georgia Hudson focuses on the relationship fathers have with their children. 

Loyle says " I just wanted to celebrate the [fathers] who are doing right and sticking around, because they're shedding the stereotype." 

The video sees the South Londoner taking a stroll around a surreal hospital ward, ending up with a group of young fathers with their babies.

Nothing But Thieves "Last Orders" (Lewis Cater, dir.)

"Last Orders reflects on the idea of fate, how every small action plays it part in the 'bigger picture.' I am a huge fan of gritty British cinematography and in this video I wanted to explore mixing old and gritty with the contemporary. The track itself is very descriptive with vivid dark undertones. I wanted to create a narrative that suggestively explores this, connecting the story and performance into one 'big picture."
