King Lizard - Just To Hear You Say It

In December 2013 we teamed up again with our rocking friends King Lizard to film a new piece of factual content in the form of a day by day tour film, and a new promo video for "This Ain't Love" during their visit to perform in guitarist, Niro Knox's home town of Tel Aviv, Israel. 



Now, for a country in the middle east you wouldn't expect anything but sunshine and scorching heat, but unfortunately we were greeted with a horror storm that stuck with us for the 5 days filming in Israel, and to make matters even worse our plans were to shoot the promo primarily in the Desert - No Chance.

With the Storms getting the better of us, we decided to work on "Just To Hear You Say it" a good old-fashioned rock ballad from their current album "A Nightmare Livin' The Dream" and had to come up with new plans regarding getting a promo shoot in the bag whilst out in Tel Aviv.

So with some quick improvisation and with a change of single choice we put our heads together on the 3rd night out there and managed to squeeze out a powerful and quick performance video in the rehearsal spaces in downtown Tel Aviv, when preparing for one of the big shows later that week.

It was certainly a mighty test but also a pleasure to cut this together, especially getting to make another promo in a foreign country. We hope you enjoy this one.

Note: The touring film should surface over the next month or so.

Beasts - In session with Dan Weller


Back in December 2013 we first started our working-relationship with Beasts. They invited us down to Proper Records, to document their studio time with the legendary Dan Weller. They were recording two tracks, 'What You Want' and 'Annie' which we later made the audio only video for.

We spent 3 days with the lads, filming the magic throughout the recording process. We utilised this opportunity to create a more filmic piece of content. The studio location was fantastic, with wall to wall shelving of vinyls and CD's, giving us good selection of visuals to display in the documentary. We would love to hear your thoughts.

BLEECH - Humble Sky Teaser


In early 2013 we first met BLEECH during the filming of our 2nd episode of our KOKO Presents web series with Club NME, in which they were the headliners of the show for that night. Here at Fenixx we can easily say that the episode with BLEECH is certainly still one of our favourite shows that we have filmed at KOKO, and below you can see a link to that very episode where we have a nice little interview and some really cool snippets from their energetic show.

Fast forward to 2014, and coming March 10th is BLEECH's second album "Humble Sky" which is ready to be unleashed and from what we've heard so far its is certainly an album worth getting your hands on! A little while back after the KOKO show we were asked by the band if we could put together a teaser Promo using some of the rushes that would support the announcement of when "Humble Sky" is due!

Personally we are big fans of BLEECH's music so please check out below the Promo for "Humble Sky" and check out the videos of them below which we've had plenty of fun filming.

KOKO/HOUSEKEEPING - The Seven Deadly Sins (Envy)


Late into 2013 KOKO opened its doors to a new series of events run by Housekeeping. Putting on high-end events inside the Camden Venue which welcomed many of London's well known celebrities to enjoy a night based on the Seven Deadly Sins, for this Premiere event the first one was ENVY.

For our good friends at KOKO we put together a promotional video to commemorate the first event, and will hopefully be able to show you plenty more for the future events throughout 2014!

Beasts 'Annie' (Audio Only)

Tom hanging around

A new band we have been working with lately is the Twickenham three piece, Beasts

They've certainly put themselves out there already having played support slots for the likes of Miles Kane and Dinosaur Pile-Up.

We were in the studio with the lads back in December 2013 filming them record a couple of new tracks with the legendary Dan Weller from SikTh, who has produced albums for Enter ShikariYoung Guns and many more! The short studio documentary with Beasts will be released later in the year.

Since then we have filmed a experimental/audio only video for their track "Annie" the day after it was exclusively Premiered on BBC Radio 1's Rock Show with Daniel P Carter.

The idea for this video was rather simple, we got each of the lads down to the studio in Soho and got them to hang upside down in a very simple and possibly unusual companion to the track! We certainly had a lot of fun shooting this! The video was exclusively released on Art Rocker.

What are your thoughts?

KOKO Presents, We Are Scientists

This week, our episode of KOKO Presents comes as a special one...

First off it's with the high profiled band, We Are Sceientists, Silas chats to them about their new album, and has a game of Rock, Paper Scissors. Secondly, the episodes are now in association with Red Stripe.


We are very excited that the video-podcast now has the backing from Red Stripe (nice to hear they can see the potential), and now we have even higher optimism for the future, and what this will bring.

Watch the episode and enjoy.


Next week we are releasing our next music video, this one is for Creatures Of Love, and it's our most biggest production yet...we can't wait to unleash it!
