Second Sun: "Through Each Kinder Day"
We began by shooting the band against black over four hours in the lighting company AFM's test studio. Tim hung Kinoflow tubes from the ceiling and exposed only for the lamp so as to give the appearance of floating strips of light. The initial idea was to then film the band in a dense wood and dissolve between the two, however when we got to the location the next day the fields around it had turned into a lake, so we abandoned that idea and moved to a nearby service bridge over the A3. We set the band up on the bridge and drove our three cars backwards and forwards past the band at break neck speed through an eight foot gap between them and the camera and with a 30 ft stopping distance, otherwise they'd be in the hedge. I then cut it to try and give the the illusion of the band playing on a motorway. Originally the promo was to be more story lead showing the relationship between a man and a woman breaking down. We filmed this in Battersea Park and on the North bank of the Thames on a 16mm Bolex but had serious light leak issue. So, being on a budget of zero pounds, reshooting was out of the question. We salvaged the best of the footage and cut it in around the performance.

Jerry Hawkins: "For When You're Feelin' Blue"
This video is one of my own songs that I wrote about losin' a girlfriend and tryin' to work through that and not give up on love. Two entertainers who always really impressed me over the years were Elvis Presley and another whom I finally got to meet in person, Mr. Mickey Newbury. Mickey was one of the finest poets I've ever known. Oh, Rod McKuen still rules; don't get me wrong, but when it comes to expressing how things can go in relationships, at times, Mickey took the prize.
It's the first "real" video clip of Third Eye Machine. The first clip was a live video clip, for the song "handful", recorded at "Tremplin Rock de Bassens 2004".
Onelinedrawing: "We Had a Deal"
As the driving force behind Onelindrawing, Jonah Matranga had spent years handcrafting his confessional pop songs-often recording them at home and selling his records on his website-until Jade Tree signed the 34-year-old songwriter as not only a solo act, but as the leader of the now defunct rock band New End Original. He had some chops, too, but it seemed just a bit off as his visions on love both lost and found sounded best in small basements, not huge arenas. Personal to the touch, it's not difficult to see why Matranga has ammassed a cult following that includes everyone from Dashboard Confessional's Chris Carrabba to Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda, playing his songs like they were touching letters he creased in small squares before passing them along to his adoring fans. Listen closely: the story of your life may be buried in the folds.

Para One is one of the leaders of the French new school. Known for his killer track "Dun Dun" (remixed from MSTRKRFT) and remixes of Agoria, Krazy Baldhead, Ellen Alien (with Tacteel) and Daft Punk, among others. His musics been played by a wide array of the dance floors elite from Feadz, Erol Alkan, Diplo, Modeselektor and Justice to Laurent Garnier, DJ/Rupture, Team Shadetek and Michael Mayer. "Dun Dun" is both the hardest, most ruthless and loveliest, most idyllic techno track in a long time. These tracks are tailor-made for the club, the dancefloor, the moment when the world dissolves into strobes, heat and sound, when the dancers move whether they like it or not, barely breathing machines operated by way of drugs, snares and synths.
