Whatever happened to good old fashioned jam-sessions and chilled acoustic music? It’s all over at Watch Listen Tell. Watch Listen Tell, based in England, records bands performing acoustic versions of their songs. From names like Bombay Bicycle Club, Lucy Rose, Two Door Cinema Club and Young the Giant, they will easily soak up hours of your time, and even more of your internet.

Gus Péwés short film, This Vacuum is Too Loud [watch below], won the Hammer to Nail Short Film Contest in June 2012. Reviewer Michael Tully notes: ‘Made while a freshman undergraduate, Péwé’s film is a super-duper example of a class assignment made on a tiny budget that has something many professionally produced films at more widely heralded film schools are often missing: a truly distinct voice’. Péwé also has started making music videos. Here’s one for the singer Mac Demarco.

Simone Felice is from upstate New York. He is an author, poet, songwriter and a survivor of two very near death experiences. He often sings about drugs, prostitutes, guns, whiskey and war, all delivered with his expressive and soulfoul voice. I love his intensity and the rhythm in his songwriting. This is a great video of a beautiful track from him called Scarecrow.

This video by The Ritual Project with music by The Album Leaf is two years old, but periodically I go back into my bookmarks to watch these guys hand-painting advertisements on the sides of buildings New York.

Black Mekon are a partial mystery. It appears to be two men (or one, or three?) who give away very little information other than tall tales regarding their origin and a wealth of interesting music videos online. Shying away from the usual baggage that comes with being a band, Black Mekon would rather let their garage/punk/blues do the work for them. Don’t try.

I love the new Coco Rosie video for their typically black and cryptic track Gallows. It was created by Tropfest winning director, Melbourne-based Emma Freeman.

We’re loving the new video from April Smith and the Great Picture Show — Terrible Things — which has been released to coincide with Halloween and features Smith grinding her dinner guests into next week’s leftovers. Haha! Sounds like fun.

Check out this new video by the excellent soul singer, Aloe Blacc. Very smooth, genuine and cool music from this California native. I Need A Dollar is the theme to the HBO series How to Make it in America and is now on heavy rotation everyday before I go to work.

In New York City, hip-hop and graffiti run as tight as Wu and Tang. Queens rapper Meyhem Lauren’s new music video for Got the Fever celebrates this hallowed union in glossy HD. Directed by rising photographer Tom Gould, the video catches the city’s finest street artists bombing landmarks across the boroughs. It’s also a beautiful example of the low-budget, DSLR cinematography that’s fast becoming the next major street art.

This video here makes me happy for several reasons: the tune is great, the boys are cute, the vocals and the groove are really my thing, and the video, directed by Lucinda Schreiber and Beatrice Pegard, simply rocks. It was shot frame by frame, then re-shot using over 2,000 printed pieces of paper.

This brings me back to my youth-defying authority days, when skipping school and rolling my skirt up a few inches was a must. Now that I’ve grown out of that phase, I keep my acts of defiance to eating junk food, oversleeping, and blasting this song in my car while politely yelling at everyone to get out of my way and learn to drive.

We dig the new Professor Green song, Monster. Not quite as much, though, as the video for it, which sees Green create his own version of a haunted house.

Cheap (in a good way) electro gothic madness by Crystal Castles. This awesome, asphyxiating, bombastic video for Baptism, from the album Crystal Castles II, makes me want to dance and hide all at the same time.

Created by the design group Sembler using 3D brainscans from the Visible Human Project and using the latest human-computer interaction (HCI), Gold is the new video by electronic trio Darkstar, and it’s a beautiful trip inward. Their new album comes out October 19 on Hyperdub.

This beautiful and eerie new video for Suuns’ Up Past the Nursery was shot deep in the forest behind your house, just before sunset, right about the time of day when the thought of being lost in the woods starts to creep you out. Their new album comes out October 12 on Secretly Canadian.

I loved Oval when 1995′s 94 Diskont came out. I blissed out to it every night for almost a year. But then I kind of stopped thinking about Markus Popp’s beautifully minimalistic project for more than a decade. Now, almost ten years after his last release, Popp is coming out with two albums this year, Oh and O. This video for the track ‘Ah!’ on the latter album has definitely reaffirmed my respect for this guy.

Australian electronic act, Pivot, have changed their name — to PVT — and have a new album on the way, to be released through the mercurial Warp Records. Their song, Window, is typical of the dense collisions of PVT’s sound. The video was directed by Clemens Habicht (Friendly Fires) and edited at the Abbey Road Studios, using an innovative camera technique to capture the intensity of the band’s live performances.
