# Videodrome #71 – This week’s best videos
Here's the latest dose of audiovisual joy with the likes of
British/German legends **The Orb**, with their second video featuring
**Lee Scratch Perry**; **Kreidler** with their new video for "Cascade"
taken from their recent full-length *Den*; an unbelievable composed
video for the track "Kardashev Type One" by **Boards Of
Canada** collaborator **christ**.
**#1 Perfume Genius -- Take Me Home**, directed by Patrick Sher
Here's the video for a good cut off of **Perfume Genius**'s excellent
"Put Your Back N 2 It" that asserts that Mike Hadreas is the coolest
motherfunker around.
///
**#2 El Perro del Mar -- Walk On By**, directed by Frode & Marcus
**Sarah Assbring**'s new album, *Pale Fire*, is just around the corner.
Fashion by **[Anna-Sara Dåvik][1]{: target="_blank"}**.
///
**#3 The Weeknd -- Rolling Stone**
**The Weeknd**, again. One of the most highly-rated tracks from his
*Thursday* mixtape now has some new, black-and-white video pleasure to
go with it.
///
**#4 Egyptian Hip Hop -- Yoro Diallo**, directed by by Isaac Eastgate
**Hip Hop in Egypt** is actually synth-pop from the US. Lost in
translation, but a pleasure to hear anyway.
///
**#5 KREIDLER -- Cascade**, footage from Heinz Emigholz
See **Claus-Wilhelm Klinker** and John Erdman in *Die
Basis des Make-Up*, scenes taken from the **Heinz Emigholz**-directed
1985 film.
///
**#6 Mandola Jayebe -- Cream**
Surpringsingly fresh sound and an okay video for **Mandola Jayebe**'s
"Cream".
///
**#7 Big Wave -- Only You**
Very much liked the vibe of that audiovisual tet-a-tet. Power Pop is
still standing.
///
**#8 Menomena -- Plumage**, directed by Trevor McMahan
**Menomena** is one of these bands which I started to like thanks to
their videos. Remember their food fight for "[Rotten Hell][2]{:
target="_blank"}" or the astonishing video/shortfilm for "[Evil
Bee][3]{: target="_blank"}"? This is just as good.
///
**#9 christ. -- Kardashev Type One**, directed by Stefan Larson
Taken from his soundtrack to the film Cathexis,
christ.'s 'Kardashev Type One' is a typically glitchy
electronica that brings to mind **Warp** in its heyday. The video
showcases some of the ground-breaking animation techniques used in
[*Cathexis*][4]{: target="_blank"}. Awesome.
///
**#10 The Orb feat. Lee Scratch Perry -- Soulman**
Here at EB we really like [**Thomas Fehlmann**][5]. So, of course, we
also really like video for his second single, featuring **Lee Scratch
Perry**.
