Teleman have unveiled the playful – and somewhat disturbing – video for new single ‘Mainline’, due for release on 10th November via Moshi Moshi Records and taken from their debut album, Breakfast. Directed by the band’s own Jonny Sanders, the video utilizes slo-mo to great effect; tea dresses and windswept wigs are teamed with bursting […]
London director Paxi’s second video for Tom Vek emulates a giant fruit machine using a split screen and rolling footage, highlighting Tom’s multi-instrumentalism for the first times in one of his videos. Will you hit the jackpot? You’ll have to watch the hypnotic video to find out… The single is taken from new album, Luck, […]
Teleman have just unveiled a striking video for their new single ‘Skeleton Dance’, directed by their own Jonny Sanders. Jonny and Tom have said, “The video was conceived as a non-narrative, collage based collection of fun elements and colours. “We started with Bauhaus Theatre Mask designs by Oskar Schlemmer which to our knowledge have never […]

Released this week, ‘Breakfast’, Teleman’s debut album is fast picking up critical acclaim and fan support including 6Music’s Album of the Day and live sessions for 6Music’s Lauren Laverne and Marc Riley, Radio 4 Loose Ends and XFM John Kennedy.

As he prepares to drop his third album ‘Luck’, Tom Vek has announced a new video for his forthcoming Single ‘Sherman (Animals in the jungle)’, which is due for release on the 9th of June on Moshi Moshi Records.

On the brink of an extensive run of European tour dates, stretching from Portugal to Sweden, Hercules & Love Affair have released another exciting collaboration with one of 2014’s sexiest voices. Nominated for a Brit Award, John Grant was the answer to Hercules & Love Affair’s Andy Butler’s constant quest for incredible voices. To be […]
