AlunaGeorge - Your Drums, Your Love


The purpose of a good music video is to complement the music, enhancing its sound and feel.  The video for Your Drums, Your Love, the latest track from London duo AlunaGeorge, does exactly that.  Set in a modern art gallery, the abstract sculptures reflect the jagged, stuttering beats, doubled by the popping robotic dancing; the monochromatic colour pallete mirrors the minimalist, clean production.

Your Drums, Your Love is the latest single following the duo's EP 'You Know You Like It'.  It's not as instantly alluring as the EP's lead single, the more subdued feel taking longer to settle in the brain - but it's sensual chorus is no less gratifying.  Aluna Francis's vocal and George Reid's production are a match made in R&B-pop heaven, their music glittering and sparkling like the sculptures in this video.  The result is some seriously sexy pop.

4/5
