Here are the latest videos we found and liked this week.
We have in this selection videos from Phantogram to (again) Zebra Katz

We open the selection with a slow-mo dancing video, directed by filmmaker Dugan O’Neal and Ry X of The AcidBasic Instinct beautifully shot in San Monica, Ca.

Forest Swords just released a video for The Weight of Gold in anticipation of their extensive world tour, directed by Benjamin Millepied and featuring androgynous dancer Billy Barry bounding over barren landscapes throughout Israel, as the atmospheric track nudges Barry’s primal movements with drum clacks and howling waves of filtered guitar.

Next, to continue on a “basic” human level, I found a making-of clip about the work process of artist Sam Jinks – featuring amazing hyper-real sculptural work of – almost real – people! Sam creates his work out of silicone, fiberglass, resin, calcium carbonate and real human hair, to capture still moments of vulnerability and silence, striking portrayals of the human condition.

Also worth mentioning, is a video from indie electropop artist iamamiwhoami for her track Fountain, a majestic performance over the backdrops of raw northern (icelandic?) realms.

Now back to music, with the latest from MetronomyLove Letters released just before Valentine’s Day this year, directed by Michel Gondry as a retro-set-band-performance-story-thingy to go with the retro vibe of the track.

Phantogram released a new video as well, for their Fall in Love track from the new album “VOICES”. The video is a collaboration between some well known creative folks – director/photographer extraordinaire Timothy Saccenti + generative code wiz Joshua Davis and agency Sub Rosa – the video is mesmerizing, shot in black and white, featuring the Phantogram duo performing the song over Joshua’s generative graphics backdrops & projections. Cool!

After a love song, I present next a no-love song, from the hardcore industrial hip-hop band Death Grips, latest No Love video – directed by themselves… 3D effect on footage from a live concert, bluntly disrupted by “I used to give a fuck” messages. This is some intense stuff…

Chet Faker released a video for Talk is Cheap featuring himself, his portrait gradually awakening from Winter’s ice, into Spring flowers, Summer sun and sand, Autumn’s fallen leaves and back into Winter… a full circle – video directed by multidisciplinary creative duo Toby & Pete.

The National finally released a video for their well known I Need My Girl track.
Shot in black & white, directed by Sophia Peer – the video features elegantly dressed couples slowly dancing, celebrating their connection. Simply beautiful!

Another black and white video, for C2C Arcades a vibrant video directed by Rémi Paoli featuring actress Charlotte Poutrel dancing, jumping, falling, in all sorts of ways…

Chase & Status duo have a new song and video – Blk & Blu featuring british youngsters having fun, going wild – you know – that sort of thing…

Finally, another Zebra Katz video for LAST NAME KATZ directed by Ruben XYZ & Zebra himself, revealing high end debauchery, katz eyes, models going wild in a “was it all a dream?” mood… NSFW ofc!
