Luis Hindman

Luis Hindman returns with another mesmerising visual for Joesef, this time in the form of a three-part live film, where the Scottish soul singer performs songs from his debut album, Permanent Damage, released in January.Set in the same world as the excellent series of videos directed by Hindman for tracks from&nbsp;the album,&nbsp;the film takes place in the fictional 'Apartment 22' - a place&nbsp;referenced in the album, where Joesef has been stranded by a past lover.&nbsp;Shot on 16mm, the video was shot by Jake Gabbay, and is comprised of subtle Steadicam shots by&nbsp;Justin Theodore as Joesef and his band perform three songs: Joe, Borderline and Just Come Home With Me Tonight.The textural, almost surreal aesthetic perfectly contrasts the intimate live performance, and the concept as a whole is a brilliant extension to the universe Hindman and the artist have so lovingly brought to life.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;

Joesef 'Live From Apartment 22' by Luis Hindman

Luis Hindman directs a kaleidoscopic promo for Master Peace, the second of three videos he's directed for the South London musician.&nbsp;The frenetic, colour-soaked video for Veronica sees the artist take&nbsp;an interest in the song's namesake, spotting her at a club before seeing spiralling into a Y2K-inspired fever dream.&nbsp;The name Veronica starts to appear everywhere - on bottles, necklace pendants and even a pack of cigarettes - and before long, the whole room has warped into a series of fluid textures and uncanny forms.&nbsp;Shot on 16mm, the video has a gritty yet vibrant aesthetic, with a truly trippy vibe throughout. A fine follow-up to the equally vibrant and energetic video Hindman directed for <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGlct4ccNBQ" target="_blank">Country Life</a>.&nbsp;

Master Peace 'Veronica' by Luis Hindman

Master-Peace-'Veronica'-by-Luis-Hindman

The fourth video in an outstanding series for alt-soul singer Joesef by Luis Hindman offers one final unexpected twist.Following the videos for It's Been A Little Heavy Lately, East End Coast and Joe, this one for&nbsp;Just Come Home With Me Tonight ties everything together, carrying through the modern film noir aesthetic, this time with Hindman collaborating with DoP Nikita Khatsarevich.Once again, Joesef is a night out - lovelorn and lonely - but then he finds someone. This turns into a dreamlike chapter of passion on London's drizzly and dark&nbsp;streets.Finally, there is a connection back to the first video when Joesef returns home - alone -&nbsp;where the love interest from that video (played by Adam Monks) is waiting for him. So is Joesef unfaithful, or did everything before that actually really happen?As with its predecessors this conveys the sense&nbsp;that the Scottish singer-songwriter&nbsp;is a romantic but restless soul, and does so in impressively cinematic fashion. All the films serve his debut album, Permanent Damage - out in January 2023 - very well indeed.

Joesef 'Just Come Home With Me Tonight' by Luis Hindman

Joesef - Just Come Home With Me Tonight (Official Video)

Luis Hindman continues his successful run of video collaborations with Joesef, this time for poignant track Joe.&nbsp;The video explores the process of letting go of a relationship, told through a framework of a&nbsp;wrecked apartment and the memories which once filled it.&nbsp;Emotionally, things have changed -&nbsp;but physically, you're still in the exact same place.[imgtoken data:1]Capturing a transcendent, illusory vibe that feels snatched&nbsp;straight from a memory, the video documents the highs, the lows and the inbetweens, seamlessly blending a stream of different emotions and snapshots of life together.&nbsp;The exposed, stripped-back location and art direction perfectly reflect the themes in the track, and provide a minimalist structure for the couple's world to inhabit, until it breaks apart.&nbsp;Raw, honest and consuming, it's a standout video, and arguably the best of Joesef and Luis Hindman's collaborations to date.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Luis Hindman directs promo full of yearning for Joesef - set on two different crowded dancefloors.Following previous collaboration for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2022/02/23/joesef-its-been-little-heavy-lately-luis-hindman/75129">It's Been A Little Heavy Lately</a>, the video for&nbsp;East End Coast sees Joesef drifting through&nbsp;an atmospheric&nbsp;club packed with a mixed crowd of revellers and kissing couples. He is seemingly the only one alone among this hipster crowd, reflective and lipsyncing to the melodic song.The fact that he is pining from a lost love from his hometown of Glasgow is brought home by the introduction of another, slightly less crowded dancefloor, of a gay club - this one distinguished from the other also by the blueish tinge in the grade and a different aspect ratio - with Joesef himself in a smooch with a boy.[imgtoken data:1]It's an evocative&nbsp;display of love and loss, told through an atmospheric and hyperreal aesthetic, beautifully shot by Sam Meyer. Joesef also gives an excellent downbeat performance amid the fevered atmosphere&nbsp;of the London club, and Luis Hindman handles this tricky juxtaposition of the two settings, to bring out the emotion of the song, really well.&nbsp;Joesef told Attitude Magazine that the video was very important to him. "If I'd seen a wee guy from the east of Glasgow necking a lad in a music video back in the day I'd have felt a bit less alone."

Joesef 'East End Coast' by Luis Hindman

Joesef-'East-End-Coast'-by-Luis-Hindman

Luis Hindman directs a late-night meditation on lost love and blurred memories for Joesef's latest promo.&nbsp;The video for It's Been A Little Heavy Lately follows the artist on a hazy late-night drive, reminiscing about better times and missed opportunities.&nbsp;"I drew on filmmakers such as Wong Kar-wai, Kieslowski and Xavier Dolan for their ability to create heightened-realities and&nbsp;dream-like atmospheres," says Hindman.&nbsp;The intimate, understated energy of the piece perfectly matches the downtempo track, and the effervescent cinematography creates a dreamlike world which feels caught somewhere between reality and fiction. All of this paves the way for a shocking finale, which ends in a familiar place...&nbsp;"The video’s finale is a direct tie-in to a previous Joesef video for Comedown," Hindman explains.&nbsp;"So, yep, this is a prequel of sorts. Trilogy on the cards?&nbsp;We'll see..."&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]Joesef gave a little background to the song itself, and the inspirations that made their way into the visual.&nbsp;"I wanted the song to feel like a bad trip, there’s a lot of different textures; the tempos are higher, and the drums are slightly swung," he says. "It also features a sample from the film Totally Fucked Up by Gregg Araki: the stories he tells, and how he portrays them visually inspire me every day, and fit the context of the song so well."I had to write to him for the sample clearance and he said 'yes', which was fucking mindblowing to me. He’s a hero of mine.”

Creative studio&nbsp;LADYBUG present a dynamic lyric video for CMTEN, in which each&nbsp;setup&nbsp;is designed to look like a 16-bit video game title screen.Reminiscent of time spent at the arcade as a kid, the concept is inspired by the glitchy vocals and soundscapes in the track, tapping into a sense of carefree nostalgia and yearning for youthful days.&nbsp;The bold, chaotic colour palettes and animation work in a strangely engaging way, taking a deep-dive into lo-fi aesthetics whilst retaining a unique and standout style. All the better to represent the lyrics, a stream of self-loathing delivered in super-compressed, sped-up&nbsp;vocals by Glitch Gum.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Luis Hindman directs a&nbsp;nightmarish&nbsp;vision of chaos and decay in his promo for Para Fiction.&nbsp;The video for Time Debt presents an&nbsp;anarchic mash-up of hyperstylised vignettes, cut in a hypnotic, fervent way.&nbsp;Experimenting with lo-fi visual effects and gritty, black and white textures, the video has a punchy presence and in-your-face attitude that will keep viewers fixated on the surreal concept.&nbsp;

New OB signing Darnell Depradine invites you to his underground speakeasy in Aitch's new video, Buss Down.Going full-on vintage, from the sepia tones to the wardrobe and styling, this homage to last century's Roaring 20s&nbsp;is a breath of fresh air in the current 90s revival climate. Featuring strong performances from both Aitch and featured artist ZieZie, the video makes an inspired decision in presenting the artists in a way they have never been seen before.Complete with a mini-narrative and excellent cinematography, it's a must-watch from an exciting new director.&nbsp;

Kara Marni surrounds herself with love in the Luis Hindman-directed&nbsp;video for All Night.Focusing on the effect of music on both the performer and the audience, Marni performs surrounded by different couples losing themselves in the music. It's a heaven-like atmosphere, where everyone is escaping through the sound, and no one wants it to end. They could stay like this all night.&nbsp;The juxtaposition of the film&nbsp;stock and&nbsp;high definition footage helps to&nbsp;cement an old-school vibe to match the track, and the diverse selection of couples help it to feel universal and accessible to all.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Luis Hindman's video for Blanco&nbsp;is an intricate flow of intertwining clips - including&nbsp;masked warriors materializing from multicoloured fumes, which contrasts&nbsp;stylishly against the dark tones throughout the rest of the video.The smooth transitions between the scenes and rotating camera movements contribute to a dreamlike, hypnotic feel to&nbsp;Hindman's piece for the London rapper's track Mirror Man.

London-based director Luis Hindman has done an impressive job here for Ferreck Dawn &amp; Robosonic's club banger In My Arms.It's a portrayal of young love in its different manifestations, shot in a variety of formats. And it's given added freshness by a pacey&nbsp;edit that takes its cue from the tempo of the track.

Luis Hindman directs a dazzling performance promo for Ten Tonnes.&nbsp;Stylistically riffing off the artwork for the track with in-camera&nbsp;effects, the video for Cracks Between tells the story of a breakup, through the use of minimalist sets and understated art direction.&nbsp;The artist - real name&nbsp;Ethan Barnett - takes centre-stage&nbsp;with a&nbsp;love interest who often replaces&nbsp;the performance and mirrors&nbsp;Barnett's movements, but never turns up on-screen at the same time as him.This cat-and-mouse style chase makes for a dynamic visual, and the inspired use of cut-out shapes in front of the lens&nbsp;frames the video in an interesting and fresh way.&nbsp;&nbsp;
