Sergey Khlebalin – “Efir and dust”</strong>, directed by Alexander Podoprigorov</p><p>New nature video for Polar Lights, filmed in a bloody atmospheric environment which surprisingly suits the housey sax track very well.</p><p>/</p><p><strong>#3 Postiljoen – “Surpreme”</strong>, directed by Ty Olson</p><p>Electro-pop can be quite a strange genre, but with <a href="https://soundcloud.com/postiljonen" target="_blank">Postiljoen</a> you are definitely on the right path. This springtime anthem entitled “Supreme” is out on <a href="https://soundcloud.com/hybris" target="_blank">Hybris</a> now.</p><p>/</p><p>#<strong>4 Orchestre Poly-Rythmo de Cotonou – “Houzou Houzou Wa”</strong></p><p>I’ve got to admit that my feedreader, erm twitter consists of a lot of African blogs. One I can recommend to you is <a href="http://analogafrica.blogspot.de" target="_blank"><em>Analog Africa</em></a>, where I found this pearl from the upcoming Analog Africa No.13 sampler <em>The Skeletal Essences of Afro Funk 1969 – 1980</em>, out this month.</p><p>/</p><p><strong>#5 Major Lazer feat Busy Signal, The Flexican & FS Green – “Watch Out For This (Bumaye)”</strong>, directed by Jay Will</p><p>Man, what kind of run does <a href="http://www.electronicbeats.net/artist/major-lazer/" target="_blank">Major Lazer</a> have? Is there any mainstream society which rejects these kind of pop big-beat tunes? Looks like their upcoming album <em>Free the Universe</em> will be a worldwide success.</p><p>/</p><p><strong>#6 PANTEROS666 – “HYPER REALITY”</strong></p><p>Piano-house? <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjoKXayiQBU" target="_blank">Adamski</a>? <a href="http://www.discogs.com/Adamski-Liveandirect/release/118683" target="_blank"><em>Liveanddirect</em></a>? Nope. It’s a banger by upcoming french producer Victor Watel aka <a href="https://soundcloud.com/panteros666" target="_blank">Panteros666</a>. Out on Brodinski’s <a href="http://bromancerecords.tumblr.com" target="_blank">Bromance Records</a>.</p><p>/</p><p><strong>#7 Holy Sons – “Aged Wine”</strong></p><p>Emil Amos unveiled this video for the bonus track from his one-man project <a href="http://holysons.com/news" target="_blank">Holy Sons</a>.
