Roon, the player for serious music lovers, has long been a darling of the audiophile world, with more than 100k subscribers. The service lets users compile files native to their device and listen side-by-side with hi-res streaming services, all in lossless quality. But its real magic comes into play when creatives harness its metadata side.

The short film for “Living in a Haze” follows a similar theme to previous releases by Milky Chance, where we find the band ensconced in a scene prepped to pop off into dance.

The music video (or, shall we say, short film) for “Demon” opens with a wide shot of Boston. Even on the streets of his adopted home, Fresh Da Zoe isn't safe; within seconds of seeing him, he's kidnapped by gangsters out to deliver his heart to their boss. The joke's on them: this cold killer ain't got one.

Dive into the multi-layered story behind the song with the music video for “Love Songs” (directed by Errand Boy and produced by Rèmi Fréyo). Strewn over a sofa behind a bleeding neon heart, we find 301icon painfully belting out his woe. In cutscenes, we see the source of his pain: toxic infidelity and dishonesty.

The thrill of young romance animates David Bradley's playful video for "I Don't Hate U," too. To suit the throwback feel of the song and the domestic theme of Daisy Brigg’s lyrics, he displays the footage through a frame that makes the whole thing look like Kodak slides come to life.

The dazzling, beautifully shot "Blood Moon" visual has the gloss of a major motion picture and the feel of a séance. The camera catches art pop artist Jessica Carter Altman in flight in a dense and chilly forest, raising a torch against looming darkness and sitting by the fireside in a remote cabin, surrounded by votive candles.

For an extra dose of sentiment, turn to the music video for "Raise Her Right." After a brief intro in which Lavon Coates calls his mom to let her know about his dream, the music picks up, and we're waltzed from scene to scene of the musician's life.

The “Def Cons” video extends an ongoing story that began with the "Abscessed" clip and looks likely to continue well into 2023. It's a crisply shot, wonderfully and horrifically explicit crime drama, complete with illicit pills, private investigators, prison and courtroom scenes, low-angle shots of cars…

The music video for "I Don't Know The Way To Your Heart," directed by frontman Hillel Tigay himself, draws visual influence from the award-winning film Waltz With Bashir. The animation style offers a sense of detachment from the scenes of purple-hued cosmic contemplation in which Tigay wanders his way in parallel to a lost love.

Ever the humble artist, MattO handed "The Angels Went Back To Heaven" to friend and director Marcelo Bumbica with the instruction, "Do with it as you please." Miraculously, Bumbica generated an equally poignant interpretation of the song in film.

The music video for “Hit The Spot” is as impressive as the track itself. Life Change and B Red came together and managed to record, master, and film "Hit The Spot” in just one day. Artistically utilizing the resources at hand, they shot the video in various locations at their disposal.

Philip Guzman's video for "Road to Damascus" is just as uncompromising as the song's lyrics. We're shown the uncomfortable facts, including an infographic of school shootings across the country that lights up the map with a constellation of flashpoints.

After tinkering together the catchy retro beat and hook at the heart of the song, producer Ace Marcano just threw "MOMA" down as a temporary title for the track. Then, after hiking Vermont's highest peak together, the acronym fleshed itself out into our main man's noggin organically. And a bit later, they decided to nail down the entire song and video in a single day - for authenticity's sake.

K Theory returns with classic trap anthem & takes you "Hostage" with their new single and cover of the hit by Billie Eilish featuring a haunting vocal rendition by Staarz.

The video for "Life… is a Fraction: VI. Realization" democratizes Aroian's personal journey. In it, we find an alternate female protagonist vehemently vlogging, presumptively fresh off a diagnosis or other agonizing revelation. Between shots of Aroian, Soucy, and Raffi melting minds, she rails against church, state, and general hate.

In her music video for "Loved Me Like A Weapon," co-directed by Logan Zilmer, we discover Brie Stoner as a hired assassin attempting to flee the blackmail of her handlers. She appears as they'd like her to see her: a sort of femme fatale thrashing through a French New Wave nightmare.

If you haven’t heard the name Papikaiser, you will soon. The young Latin R&B singer is gaining momentum and a loyal fanbase in his adopted home of New York. He just dropped his new single “Envidioso”, as well as the visual, which is our latest NN Music Video of the Week.

“Belts and Braces”, the new single by Smaller Hearts, is about coming to the realization that too much careful planning can actually be counterproductive. Watch their accompanying visual right now.

Our latest Song the Week comes from Brooklyn's acclaimed electronic singer/songwriter, musician and producer Robert PM and rising singer/songwriter and model Lyric Christian. Entitled "Hands Off (My Crown)", the soul-drenched dance banger enthralls with honey-dipped vocals, a pulsating rhythmic hook and kaleidoscopic beats.

On the heels of their debut single “Nobody But You,” indie rock band Christian Turner share their second single “Barely Listening” about being in their 30s and missing hanging out with their friends… even though it was always problematic.
