Ten Rapid: latest videos from clipping, Deltron 3030, East India Youth, Mogwai, and more

In this week's Ten Rapid playlist, we showcase videos from Sub Pop-signed rap trio clipping; Das Racist alum Kool A.D. riffing on Nirvana; and Deltron 3030 in a collaboration with pint-sized soul crooner Jamie Cullum. We get pastoral with East India Youth; mash up some cinematic genres with Real Estate; get pastoral again (but in the snow this time) with Hauschka; take a walk with a weird dog and Bonnie 'Prince' Billy; listen to Morrissey read the lyrics of his new single; get into some sun-drenched insanity with noise-punks Fucked Up; and finally, go skydiviving with the Mogwai lads. What could possibly go wrong?

We begin with LA-based industrial rap group clipping, whose new album CLPPNG drops on Sub Pop next month. With low-slung, bass-driven beats and a pair of verses from front-man Daveed Diggs and guest Crocc Pistol Cree on some trap shit, this is both an ear-worm, and a seriously brilliant slice of futurist hip-hop. With the full album featuring Death Grips-style sonic assault, extreme noise, and guest spots from hip-hop legend King T and Three 6 Mafia rapper Gangsta Boo, this is one band you'll want to keep a close eye on in 2014. 

The diametric opposite of clipping's hard-edged sound in many ways, Kool A.D.'s On A Plane sees the rapper in fine abstract flow, drawling in a relaxed fashion over a skybound beat from Sha-Leik; while in the video, a happy-looking Kool hangs out in trees, clutches African carved masks and generally looks not that bothered about this whole rap thing. It's taken from his excellent latest album, Word, O.K. which you can cop for free here.

Sci-fi rap veterans Deltron 3030 get nostalgic on Do You Remember, with allegedly credible midget crooner Jamie Cullum kept thankfully to the very margins, basically acting as a glorified sample. His presence doesn't detract too much from the track, which has some classic couplets from Del tha Funkee Homosapien, a tight beat from Automator and Kid Koala – the track features on their recent Event II  album.

Switching gears from hip-hop, here's the lush new video from East India Youth, for a standout track from this year's Total Strife Forever. Initially, it looks like William Doyle is following the same woodland-surrounded train track which the cast of The Walking Dead spent most of Season 4 exploring – eventually, the scene bursts into a riot of FX-processed psychedelic visual noise, which hopefully means Doyle is OK, and didn't get eaten by a zombie.

Brooklyn-based indie mob Real Estate have pushed the boat out for their new video, working with Funny or Die to produce a high-concept and very funny short film to accompany their track Crime. Seriously, this video has everything – zombies, vampires, even the Westboro Baptist Church. Every kind of monster you can think of, and then some...

German pianist and electronic composer Haushka's gorgeous, snowbound video for Agdam is as strange and beautiful as the track it accompanies – dancers twirl and dance in the snow, producing a strangely soothing effect, their movements slowly becoming more pronounced and intense as the song progresses. Put simply, this video is gorgeous, and alomst makes us wish it was winter again. 

Bonnie 'Prince' Billy's dog goes walkies with a nice young lady, meeting a few new pals along the way - the only problem is that the canine is wearing a frankly terrifying old man mask, making it quite possibly the scariest creature in any of the videos this week (and Real Estate had the Westboro Baptist Church, lest we forget). The track is taken from the Palace Brothers singer's latest, self-titled album.

Morrissey, after taking on amiable Scottish punk rockers PAWS in a public spat recently (to be fair, it was his manager that got into the spat – Mozza has publicly claimed he was unaware of it), shows he's not as miserly, selfish, entitled and arrogant as the press might have assumed him to be, by releasing a video of his new single with all the music and singing taken out. Inexplicably, Nancy Sinatra is in it. In other good news, he allegedly joined Twitter this week, so if you want to go and bam him up in public, and ask what on earth is going on here, now you totally can.

Preparing to release new album Glass Boys, Tronto hardcore mob Fucked Up deliver a smoke-laced video featuring the band messing about in a graveyard, skateboarding and meeting fans on a sunny afternoon. It may be a fairly normal day in the life for these hoarse-throated punk troublemakers, but they make it look really, well... fucked up.

And finally, Mogwai unveil the latest video from their sublime Rave Tapes, featuring footage of a skydiving duo in luxuriant aerial shots – begging the question, why did nobody think of doing a skydiving-themed video for Moggers before? It's the perfect accompaniment to their expansive, heart-swelling post-rock soundscapes. Watching two bodies seemingly free-floating in an azure sky, free from gravity, is a truly beautiful sight. 

That's yer lot!
