Let's rewind to the days of great expectations! Poppunk meets Britpop in a haze of bittersweet nostalgia.

Brand-new music video of Dutch singer-songwriter Blaudzun, directed by Mirka Duijn & Nina Spiering (directors of "Do Better" of Bart Constant): 2pause.com/item/544/elephants

Taken from the new “Casablanca Reworks” EP, due January 13th on Gomma. For this project The Gomma All Stars (Moullinex, Telonius, Munk, and The Phenomenal Handclap Band) teamed up with Peaches and did four cover versions of songs from the catalogue of legendary Disco label Casablanca Records.

On a budget under 300 dollars, The Mess was able to capture a really cool music video using natural elements, awesome timelapses and hard rock. Their 3rd album "Seasons" delves into the extreme range of emotion, from sadness to joy, heartbreak to love. Enjoy the video!

The first Video i ever made.. i hope you enjoy!

Introducing ‘Beggin’, the new release by Project Alfie. Project Alfie’s new track Beggin’ effortlessly emits the cool, distinguishable style and sound that is quickly becoming synonymous with the soul and hip-hop crossover artist.

The epic, emotionally wrought track was released on the Universal Compilation R&B Collection 2012, which marked Project Alfie as the only unsigned act to be featured on the album. Following its release, it became the most downloaded track on the album during its first week on iTunes.

The video for Beggin has since been filmed, and is artistically cohesive with the idiosyncratic image created by Project Alfie. It has been directed by the renowned Paul Gardner of JJ Stereo, whose work includes videos for Kasabian, Plan B and Mr. Hudson. The video smoothly incorporates much of the style that is naturally radiated by the soul singer.

Set in London, the video for Beggin follows the captivating star through busy streets, voyeuristically capturing the essence of the distinctive Project Alfie. His star quality is obvious from the instant the video begins to play, and the story of Beggin begins to unfold. The direction of the video beautifully entwines with the lyrics of the song and heart of the melody, combining to create a complete and succinct work of art.

Since the release of Beggin and the rest of The Project Alfie Mixtape, Alfie has since been invited to New York by The Hitmen (Jay-Z, Nas, Mary J Blige, Notorious BIG). What began as an ambitious project, has quickly and elegantly transformed into a beautifully finished and theatrically stylised act that makes Project Alfie one to watch for 2012.
