As spring winds down and summer gets closer, the music video world is heating UP! The latest HIP Picks – Weekly Client Roundup is here; take a look at the videos, and learn more about the clips by reading below.
“Earth Magic” Music Video: INZO feat. Elohim (electronic)
In 2018, Chicago producer INZO dropped “Overthinker”, a revolution in future bass that’s now a cornerstone of modern EDM. “Earth Magic” is the title track and first release from his forthcoming EP, and it features vocals by Los Angeles electropop artist Elohim. The “Earth Magic” video (directed by Emad Rashidi) is an enchanted, luminous visual.
“5 O’Clock Shadow” Music Video: Boys Club For Girls (country/pop)
Powerhouse singer-songwriters Amie Miriello and Vanessa Olivarez are Boys Club For Girls, and they were discovered at Arlene’s Grocery in Manhattan and Eddie’s Attic in Atlanta, respectively. The duo have since signed major label deals, played historic venues on tour, and appeared on blockbuster TV shows and in touring musicals. The “5 O’Clock Shadow” video (directed by Joshua and Keturah Bishop) is a stark look at addiction, raising funds for Nashville nonprofit Fund Recovery.
“Wasteland” Music Video: Jane N The Jungle (rock)
Phoenix razor-sharp modern rock band Jane N The Jungle are no stranger to unfriendly confines. JNTJ now boast thousands of daily listeners on Spotify that flock to their sold-out shows, which include features alongside the likes of Saving Abel, Sammy Hagar, and Escape the Fate. “Wasteland” (video directed by Jim Louvau and Tony Aguilera) explores a different kind of desert, as frontwoman Jordan White resembles both a mourner and warrior with black paint across her eyes.
“Stepping Into Eternity” Music Video: Sp8ce Owl (electronic)
To Sp8ce Owl, music is a gateway to eternity, creating songs with unique vibes in each song he’s released since he started recording music in 2017. “Stepping Into Eternity” comes from his upcoming album The Other Side of the Atlantic. The instrumental changes in the song are perfectly paired with the psychedelic visuals of the music video (directed by Joseph Meyers and Lyric Vids).
“Monster Of Your Dreams” Music Video: Spider Rockets (rock)
Unapologetically fueled by rage and inner power, NJ rockers Spider Rockets have played premiere venues and music festivals such as the Vans Warped Tour, Popcomm, and touring with Puddle of Mudd, Saliva, Framing Hanley, Trapt, Saving Abel, and Pop Evil. “Monster of Your Dreams” explores the threat of terrors that extend into our waking hours. They’ve teamed up with frequent collaborator and producer Jason Nappi to direct the thrilling music video.
“It Takes Two” Music Video: Sharon Hendrix ft. Marvin Robinson (singer-songwriter)
Sharon Hendrix has collaborated with Bob Dylan, Elton John, and Stevie Wonder, and has spent decades duetting with Barry Manilow and Tom Jones both on tour and in the studio. Her new single “It Takes Two” sees her fondly revisit her roots, covering the classic Marvin Gaye and Kim Weston duet with longtime friend and collaborator Marvin Robinson. The video (directed by Dan Voss Jr.) shows a pleasant collage of Hendrix’s process and inspiration.
