Romain's choice
Zimmer – Landing
Son of a researcher who worked on the discovery of gravitational waves, the French Zimmer takes as the subject of his clip Landing, shot at the European Observatory of Gravitational Waves located in Pisa. Navigating first in the surrounding countryside, the fields, then penetrating inside the site, it shows a universe of precision, orderly, symmetrical, industrial and scientific. A setting that lends itself perfectly to the enigmatic and meticulous atmosphere of his music.
Canek's choice
Megan Trainor – Treat Myself

Noucky's picks
The Prodigy – Need Some1
It is with a post-apocalyptic clip in a trash, grunge, crazy and violent atmosphere that we find The Prodigy! A hip hop sound, electronic, hardcore, raw, as usual, uncompromising and unencumbered by the current trend. They always have their leg and that's what makes their music unique. Their next album (the seventh) will be released on November 2nd and will be called No Tourists !

James BKS – Kwele feat. Allan Kingdom & Manu Dibango
A title that swings serious and in this weather, it's just perfect! Kwele is an ethnic group established in Gabon, Congo and Cameroon renowned for their ceremonial masks, real objects of art. Here, James BKS offers us a spiritual journey, a return to the roots. Getting closer to your ancestors and getting back to basics is a bit what this music also suggests to us.
Zadkiel – I lost everything
Behind this serious, serious timbre, and this romantic title, is Aarno, the voice of Evenline. In a completely different register, far from the US rock that he claims with his band, he offers here a sweet and sweet pop. A tender and melancholic slow that already announces the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. But don't panic, nothing prevents you from enjoying it now and dancing with your loved one.
Chaka Khan – Like Sugar
Chaka Khan is a funk legend who makes his big comeback with an addictive and contagious title. A powerful groove, percussions from everywhere and elsewhere, a crazy bass, effective samples… All the ingredients of a tube as we like them. As soon as you've heard it once, it's hard to get rid of it. He's been holding me for almost a month. A real revival between Motown and Get down! A pure kiffe! Chaka Khan is planning a new album by the end of the year. If the titles are as good as this one, we will take back a sugar supplement !

Peach Pit – Alrighty Aphrodite
As you know, at JustFocus there are some indie lovers. Some fans of Peach Pit so, which we had already told you about. They return this week with the clip of Alrighty Aphrodite, released in September 2017 with the album Being So Normal. The choirs and guitars still resonate as loudly in our rib cage and the ode to this mysterious aphrodisian character is all the more beautiful accompanied by this clip in reverse. No European dates yet!

Billie Eilish – you should see me in a crown
From the top of her 16 years, Billie Eilish does not seem to stop: she returns this week with you should see me in a crown. As usual, it is with a saturated and powerful piece of contrast with her angelic voice, that the young woman works her magic. The disturbing and very aesthetic clip only dresses the single soberly: it does not take more to keep the attention of the listener. you should see me in a crown is the second single – after lovely featuring Khalid – from BE1 his next album expected in 2019.
