# Videodrome 99 – This week’s best videos After spending the weekend in Poland---or to be more precise, in Poznań attending our [Electronic Beats Festival][1]{: target="_blank"}---this week starts without an weekend, but still contains a brand new edition of your favorite music video round-up. You know the game---it's time for V.I.D.E.O.D.R.O.M.E. **#1 David Guetta -- "Play Hard ft. Akon & Ne-Yo",** directed by Andreas Nilsson David just made a video I love for a song which I should hate. Kudos to Andreas Nilsson ([again][2]{: target="_blank"}). / **#2 Beat Club -- "Globetrotters"**, directed by Zach Kranzler This is just fantastic. Kinda smart video for a kick-ass track, taken from the "Something Better" maxi-single released last year via PCM/Boombox Recordings. / **#3 Vitalic -- "Fade Away"**, directed by Romain Chassaing Excellent new video for **Vitalic**'s "Fade Away", which turns out as some sort of mini-movie. Question: who gets the suitcase? / **#4 Crystal Castles -- "Affection"** I cant help myself, but **Crsytal Castles** almost feel like a retro band in 2013. Distorted images + Alice Glass lost in fog, all filmed in your park next door... / **#5 Female Smell -- "Look at Me Now"** Here the new Birmingham-based outfit **Female Smell** surprises with a bloody, straight-forward punk rock track. Looks like this is their first track,[ check their band camp][3]{: target="_blank"} for the debut EP. / **#6 SpaceGhostPurrp -- "Bringin Da Phonk"**, directed by SpaceGhostPurrp Taken off of last year's *Mysterious Phonk: Chronicles of SpaceGhostPurrp*, here's a pretty authentic, dark, and self-made video for "Bringin Da Phonk". / **#7 Exercise One -- "Vapor"**, directed by by Jacopo Carrears This is the first beast released from **Exercise One**'s new three-track EP, out in May through Exone. Excellent techno is all I need. / **#8 A$AP Ferg -- "Persian Wine"**, directed by A$AP Ferg & Thuan Tran Fellow Rocky set the bar quite high, but these days there's Ferg trying to set new limits. Hate these guns, btw. / **#9 Strip Steve -- "Hood"** You know that I am a lover of this goofy french techno (remember [Panetrose two weeks ago?][4]{: target="_blank"})---here Paris-born and Berlin-based wunderkind **Strip Steve** drops a blast called "Hood".
