One of those videos where you think, boody hell, just how long did this take to make? Well, that’s what you would think if your brain wasn’t busy being bounced by a never-ending wave of shapes and colours. This video from directors Kijek/Adamski apparently involved over two thousand (!) PVC silhouettes, shaped using a computer-controlled cutter. Yet the laborious process is transformed into something playful and perky, a fine accompaniment to Shugo Tokumaru’s chirpy tune. Video of the year so far.

Shady Lane - Happy Without Controls

A sweetly psychedelic song with a blissfully simple video, Sydney four-piece Shady Lane have hit a winner here. Basically they've taken a copy of "The Blue Planet" (always a good start) and fucked about with it a bit, which, fortunately, turns out to be the perfect visual foil for this effervescent bit of chillwave. The bit with the upside-down penguins is particularly mirthful, AND there's a seacow. What more could you want?
