Over the last two decades, British electronic band Hot Chip has made a substantial mark in the alternative dance music industry, effectively straddling the line between mainstream and independent music culture. With their often eccentric sound palette and keen knack for infectious dance beats, the five-piece group, fronted by Alexis Taylor and Joe Goddard, has churned out a number of chart-topping tunes that swirl in your head for days after you hear them.
As artful as their music is, Hot Chip has a noteworthy portfolio of whimsical music videos that demonstrate their playful and innovative visual sensibility. Collaborating with acclaimed directors such as Peter Serafinowicz and Nima Nourizadeh, their videos offer a delightful juxtaposition of the normal and the absurd. Particularly, the music video for "I Feel Better," directed by Serafinowicz, stands out for its bizarre yet memorable fusion of pop culture elements – imagine an R&B boy band singing in an empty theater being zapped away by a floating head spewing laser beams. Meanwhile, "Over and Over" video also showcases their angular, off-beat charm, filled with strange mechanical contraptions and gimmicky dance routines. To top it all, the cover artwork for the 'Why Make Sense?' album was released in 501 different colours, each complemented by a subtly different design, making every album unique. This quirkiness only adds to the appeal of one of the UK's most distinctive bands of the 21st century.
