This video is what I wish I was able to do to express myself in a daily basis. Don't just dance like no-one is watch: dance like no-one is watching AND you are fucking amazing AND your life absolutely totally depends on it.
I'm not really sure where Sia has been for the past four years, but this seems like a significant sidestep into indie R&B and it's pretty amazing.
Following on from Alpines' video for Oasis comes another nice video for new single No Other Lover. I'm all over the warm electronic soul sound the band going on with their recent releases - the album, also entitled Oasis, will be out on 26 May and is clearly one to look out for...
More hotness from Jamie xx.
Lush track and video from Tim Paris, known for his collaboration with Ivan Smagghe as one half of It's a Fine Line. Check it out, Rain came out last week on My Favorite Robot.
It feels like an age since Dev dropped his glorious second album as Blood Orange so this is a welcome reminder... Here Kindness provide a sympathetic remix of Uncle Ace, with additional vocals from legendary house vocalist and producer Robert Owens. There is a neat symmetry at play here, since both Hynes and Owens focus on a more emotionally vulnerable approach to dance music as a route to therapy - something the video touches on.
