Featuring CASE 2, COCO 144, GIZ, JA, KEZ 5, LES, NATO, NOXER, RATE, SKUF, TRACY 168 and VFR. - Jason Laning

VIDEO: This sounds quite awesome, and we're not sure how to better explain it than how the organizers themselves have:

In the past decade, the structure of the short snappy music video has not only become fodder for the likes of the commercial MTV set, but a gold mine for major artists and film directors to work with - and within - the limitations of the specific structure of the music video clip. Consequently, many music videos have begun to look more like an art form reminiscent of the short film genre than a commercial product.

Likewise, the aesthetics of music videos have thus also begun to recall a variety of cinematic traditions. The directors in this compilation of videos unabashedly evoke the dreamscapes and absurd landscape of 1920’s surrealist film.

Complete list of videos that will be show can be found here.
