Ambroise Willaume aka SAGE, ex-vocalist of French pop rock band Revolver, has released this slice of surreal Magritte-esque imagery for his single August In Paris directed by Thibaut Grevet. Its a very stylish and striking proposition, which pairs moving, disembodies pairs of legs atop angular, modern buildings. All manner of these long, anonymous limbs - mannequin legs, marching legs, bare legs, golden legs - dance to the staccatoed beats, taking over the artist's mind as we follow him through lonesome, modern spaces. The mysterious clip - which never reveals Ambroise's face - ends with a striking swell of endless marching legs, with the artist leading the way.A mesmerising tour de force by Grevet, whose work includes films for Vans and Red Bull, and Easy Rider - a riveting short profile of photographer and motocross fanatic Dimitri Coste.
