Looking to make me even more envious as an already massive lover of all things Japan, Clean Bandit return with their brand new video created entirely by themselves on a recent trip out there. Speaking about the video and new single bass player Jack Patterson goes on to say:

"The song has an old school feel. The vocal line was written with Jimmy Napes (Disclosure, Sam Smith, Nile Rodgers) and Nikki B, who features on ‘A&E’ and ‘Nightingale’. It is quite romantic, but the video is about a Japanese fan of the band that becomes delirious and has hallucinations of band members and our logo appearing unexpectedly in her daily life as a chef. Filming in Tokyo was an amazing experience. We made it ourselves, as always, which was quite scary as we've never produced anything so far away before. It is a beautiful place and the trip inspired Luke to learn Japanese: he now has Japanese books in the bus every time we travel to a gig."
