Video: Breathe This Air - Jon Hopkins feat. Purity Ring

in

More knee-trembling and piercing ambient electronica from Hopkins, his latest single is another team-up that lends vocals to a previously instrumental work, "Breathe This Air". The vocals come from Purity Ring and lend the track a more accessible air. The vocals are good, but there wasn't much wrong with the original in all honesty.

The vido comes from director Anthony Dickenson and is more than a little sinister... It's also a little NSFW, so maybe don't whack it on the big monitor in your office. Otherwise, sit back and enjoy...

 

Video: Colored Emotions - Night Moves

in ,

'Colored Emotions' is full of the hazy longing that comes with late steamy summer nights and the video seems to have gone a little stir crazy from the heat - it's a surreal affair.

Nights Moves take inspiration from a varied set of influences - Pink Floyd, Todd Rundgren, Curtis Mayfield and Neil Young, and the result is west-coast Americana draped in psychedelic pop.

The single is out on 7 October, but the album is out now - check it out on Spotify:

Video: Voices Drifting - The Holidays

in

This is easily the best music video I've seen in a while... The shoot occurred in a swimming pool in the middle of winter (gutsy enough) and the plan was for a single take video of the song being sung under water (very gutsy). It took a fairly hefty 15 aborted takes before they managed it and even on the succesful cut the singer Simon still almost drowned (you can see him run out of breath at the end of the second verse)!

Still, spectacular and a pretty good track too!
