The first song this week is the latest single by Phoenix, called Alpha Zulu. The video has a sense of humour running through it with the characters from classic paintings brought to life using various AI techniques as they sing and bob their heads along with the music. The video has been done so well that you get a real sense of the more serous side of the song when the chorus comes around and the characters look out passionately from their surreal settings.
To pair with this I've chosen an equally great video, The Look by Metronomy, from their 2011 album The English Riviera. Any video that features animated seagulls driving around in dodgem cars is worth checking out in my opinion.
