• I found out about Clean
Bandit when their song
‘Dust Clears’ came out.
The single came out
before ‘Rather Be’ and
before they were on the
charts. It was my favourite
song for ages and I liked
the fact that the band were
not big at the time

• The band commented ‘ The video is about a Japanese fan of
the band who 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 spent almost a week there and everyone was
so helpful. We made it ourselves as always, which was quite
scary as we've never produced anything so far away before.
We had a bit of trouble filming the scene on the train though.
Turns out it's considered incredibly rude to make noise on a
train so when we started dancing around to the track in the
carriage with the extras, it didn't go down well! Got shouted at.’

• Clean Bandit are unusual as they use a number of
classical instruments such as the cello and violin.
Which is quite unusual in a ‘pop’ band now a days.
• There outfits have also given them an unusual look
and make them stand out.
