VIDEO PICKS OF THE WEEK: Kings Elliot, KUU, Pixey, Wyndow
Kings Elliot – Dancing Alone
London-based singer/songwriter Kings Elliot’s latest song was already featured as our Song Pick of the Day, but her new video demands a separate mention. The artist filmed it herself as a beautiful visualization of the emotions in the song. Before you watch, Kings Elliot has a bit of a warning for you:
“I filmed this video outside my house on my phone and had to spread the filming across several days, because it made me feel so dizzy! It took me 3 days to be able to look at the footage without feeling sick and I spent about 30 hours editing it on an ever-crashing laptop… so overall, it was a wonderful experience!!! haha – I hope you love it as much as I do! ❤️
p.s. it may make you a little dizzy but i wanted to capture the uncertainty I felt when writing this song x”

Pixey – Electric Dream
British artist Pixey released the stimulating “Electric Dream” together with a fun and joyful video, announcing her upcoming debut EP “Free To Live In Colour.” The album is scheduled for March 24th on Chess Club Records. The singer and multi-instrumentalist wrote, recorded, and produced the album in her bedroom in Liverpool, with some additional production added by James Dring (frequent Gorillaz and Jamie T collaborator).
Pixey says about her EP:
I wanted a collection of tracks which gave a quick snapshot into me and my brain – where I’m from, where I want to be and what I’m thinking about. I hope people can take something meaningful from it or simply have a dance.

Wyndow – Take My Picture
Wyndow is a new project by Lavinia Blackwall and Laura J Martin. The video for their debut single has a mysterious, outer-worldly vibe as it blends quaint photographies with colorful graphics. If you want to let your imagination loose: the video shows Lavinia and Laura “moving through crystal eruptions and the ruins of the past.”
