# Videodrome #37 – This week’s best videos
**Welcome to #37 in our video round-up V I D E O D R O M E. This week
with Django Django, Santigold, Justice, Xiu Xiu, Frittenbude. Enjoy.**
**#1 Marsen Jules -- Swans reflecting Elephants** (directed by
[jutojo][1]{: target="_blank" rel="noopener"})
This is **jutojo**'s very nice under water video for **Marsen Jules**
stand-out track 'Swans reflecting Elephants' off
Kompakt's 11th annual **Pop Ambient** compilation, curated as
usual by label co-founder Wolfgang Voigt.
///
**#2 Django Django -- Default** (directed by Daniel Brereton)
Most songs by **Django Django** just have so much going on and it's a
credit to them that it all makes perfect sense. Their latest single
'Default' is another example of this new band's unique talent.
///
**#3 Perfume Genius -- Hood** (directed by Winston H. Case)
Seattle-based singer/songwriter **Mike Hadreas**, aka **Perfume
Genius**, has a new video out for his song 'Hood'. The video is shot in
a very bleak, confessional style that suits the openness of the song.
Hungarian gay-porn star Arpad Miklos also stars in the
video...
///
**#4 Justice -- On'n'On** (directed by [Alexandre Courtes][2]{:
target="_blank" rel="noopener"})
Awesome video for the standout track of Justice's second album, made
by french director **Alexandre Courtes**, who recently quit **Partizan**
for joining the Division production company hailing
from Paris.
///
**#5 Santigold -- Big Mouth** (directed by [Cody Critcheloe][3]{:
target="_blank" rel="noopener"})
**[Santigold][4]{: target="_blank" rel="noopener"}** is back with a new
track and music video called 'Big Mouth'. The much hyped, rather crazy
music video is half animation/half live action and is very very M.I.A. [Santigold][5]{:
target="_blank" rel="noopener"} indeed. Listen to this club stopping
tribal beat and prepare to be blown away!
///
#6 Frittenbude -- Einfach nicht leicht (directed by
Michael Maier)
This, my dear followers, is some really good shit. It's
**[Frittenbude][6]{: target="_blank" rel="noopener"}**'s new single
'Einfach nicht leicht' out very soon via **Audiolith**. Video made by
iconic photographer **Michael Maier**, who also did [this][7]{:
target="_blank" rel="noopener"} for the boys some years ago.
///
**#7 Jesse Ruins -- Shatter the Jewel** (directed by [Franck Deron][8]{:
target="_blank" rel="noopener"})
Japanesse artist **Jesse Ruins** drops some airy female vocals with deep
synths and drum machines. What a great appetizer for the upcoming
release later this year on **Cuz Me Pain**.
///
**#8 Xiu Xiu -- Hi** (directed by David Horvitz & Jamie Stewart)
Directed by **David Horvitz** and **Jamie Stewart**, the video for 'Hi'
features footage shot on a crazed trip through upstate New York. **[Xiu
Xiu][9]{: target="_blank" rel="noopener"}**'s new album Always will be
out in march.
///
**#9 Nicki Minaj -- Stupid Hoe** (directed by [Hype Williams][10]{:
target="_blank" rel="noopener"})
Why is everyone giving **[Nicki Minaj][11]{: target="_blank"
rel="noopener"}** a hard time about her 'Stupid Ho" song? I like it, I
think it's catchy.
///
#10 We Have Band -- Where Are Your People? (directed by
Alex Turvey)
New Music from British Dance-Pop artists, **[We Have Band][12]{:
target="_blank" rel="noopener"}**, released a video for their latest
single, 'Where Are Your People?' Obviously inspired by
Jodorowsky and **The Holy Mountain**.
