video: Das Body – Graceland
Super psyched to share this stellar new video from Oslo's Ellie Linden and her band Das Body for their undeniable neon-pop jam "Graceland", starring Ellie and an absurdly jacked bodybuilder.

video premiere: Penelope Trappes – CONNECTOR
We're psyched to premiere the visuals for "Connector", the darkly mesmeric new single from Penelope Trappes' forthcoming album Penelope Two, due next week on Fabric's Houndstooth label.

Where that was glamorous, shadowy and elusive, I wanted this to be exposed, in plain view - in the light of day". Watch below:
