Lynn Fox are back, having tested their mental elasticity with this low-fi extravaganza for the Aliens’ new single ‘Magic Man’. This back-to-front delight is a collaboration between Lynn Fox and John MacLean, and is a youtube hit already. We hope you enjoy.

Colonel Blimp’s Nez is back with two fantastic videos for Wiley and Kano – both very different but equally showcasing Nez’s signature style and charm. The Wiley video for ‘Summertime’ finds ongoing inspiration in the seminal MTV Raps, with eye catching graphics and some spot on styling.‘Hustler’ by Kano is a more gritty affair – shot beautifully by JP Seresin and featuring an exclusive insight into BPM industries in the heart of the east end of London.
