Each year at BUFF we try to showcase the most innovative, cinematic, mind-bending, and intriguing music videos we can find. This year’s crop of videos have all the features we adore about this medium: arresting visuals, fantastic soundtracks, wild concepts, and spellbinding narratives that captivate and confound the senses. Brace yourself for sci-fi capers, robot revolts, and freaky time loops.
