[Video] Techniques’ ‘Switch’

We first featured Preston ElectroPoppers Techniques’ Switch last August and have been awaiting it’s release ever since. It’s out next month via Kitsuné, who we can’t help but feel that along with a lot of their recent releases have dropped the ball on this one, both from a scheduling and promotional point of view. Remember when a Kitsuné release meant something? Now they just seem to let releases slip out unannounced. Ah well, at least it is coming out, definitely long overdue, it’s an excellent tune.

Here’s the video, directed by Tilly Shiner & Becan Rickard-Elliott, simple, monochrome, but quite effective.

Techniques’ Switch is released 2nd December.

[Video] Punks Jump Up’s ‘Fairlight’ video

Here is the video for London duo Punks Jump Up’s new tune Fairlight, which we featured last week as a free download. Which is good value really, seeing as how is one of the best tunes of the last few months.

The clip was put together by Neal Coghlan, and it’s an amazing, animated, space-age trip that visually plays on the tracks retro sounds.

Punks Jump Up’s Fairlight is available now.

[Video] Lily Allen’s ‘Hard Out Here’

We last wrote about Lily Allen all the way back in 2009. didn’t think we’d be doing it again. But here we are in 2013 and Lily’s back. Not only musically, but back to taking the piss out of everything, from the cheeky AutoTuning to the less-than-subtle digs, Hard Out Here is Lily’s carefree Pop at it’s finest.

Christopher Sweeney directs the video, which does the satire job adequately. You couldn’t have done anything else with the song really.

[Video] Joe Goddard’s ‘Taking Over’

The title track from Hot Chip and The 2 Bears’ Joe Goddard’s current EP, Taking Over, is now doing it;s thing in video form. This soft and sweet ElectroPop tune is the perfect introduction to the EP’s four tracks of intelligent electronic music.

Directed by Mark James delivers a suitably hazy video, with just the right amount of weirdness we’re beginning to expect from anything to do with Goddard, in this case a singing kebab.

Joe Goddard’s Taking Over EP is out now.
