Belief is a collaboration between Warpaint drummer Stella Mozgawa and producer Boom Bip, and we hope it's an enduring one. New single Dreams is pure sinewy techno that blends a drum machine, a Prophet-6 synthesizer, and Mozgawa's live snares and hi-hats to brilliant effect, so it deserves a decent promo. Director Maxim Kelly and lead actor Mark Crawley are more than up to the challenge, with the latter turned into a Neanderthal/house-elf hybrid who at least knows how to dance. His tight yet primal dance moves in an empty office are a sight to behold. Like Kelly's recent work for black midi, the promo benefits from Thomas Mangham's subtle and evocative grade. Coupled with the decision to use a MiniDV camera, it harkens back to an era of grainy, gonzo music videos.
