Cut And Run

J Hus "Spirit" (Hugo Jenkins, dir.)

Following his Mercury Prize nomination for Common Sense, J Hus releases his new video for 'Spirit' from Black Dog Films director Hugo Jenkins.

Shot in Jamestown, Accra, in Ghana, Hugo captures the towns’ energy with some arresting visuals of J Hus amidst the community at work and play.

Of the video Hugo said: “I wanted to capture this spirit but also keep the essence of who J Hus is. Capturing Hus on a miniature journey through Accra, meeting people and ending on an intimate show to me felt like the most authentic approach”.

Everything Everything "Can't Do" (Holly Blakey, dir.)

For Everything Everything ‘Can’t Do’ Holly loved the idea of creating something dark, a horror film of sorts to harness the energy of the track in another light. She wanted to use dirt, creating a world seemingly locking it’s characters inside... it felt fitting due to the current political climate to create an inescapable place, more and more people being reborn, turning into things they never imagined. The band are represented in the form of masks which add to the surreal feel of the film.

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.

Dizzee Rascal feat Robbie Williams "Goin' Crazy" (Andreas Nilsson, dir.)

Dizzee Rascal - Goin' Crazy ft. Robbie Williams

If you're at all familiar with their respective videographies*, then you know that director Andreas Nilsson working with Robbie Williams and Dizzee Rascal is a dream combination. "Goin' Crazy" doesn't disappoint, updating the Quaprohenia Mods vs. Rockers into a gloriously absurd one-take parade of madness.

Tensnake "Mainline" (PONDR, dir.)

Tensnake feat. Syron - Mainline (Official Video)

The "everything old is new again" adage is alive and well in both the music and images of this clip from German DJ Tensnake. He's not shown here, but vocalist Syron is. Acrylic fingernails, the hoop earrings, what may or may not be K-Swiss sneaks, single pastel-colored graphics, dance moves people of all ages could likely do: They're all here.
