dodie shares new video “Monster”
Following the release of her third EP Human last Friday and North American headlining tour announcement, dodie has shared the video for her latest single “Monster”. The video premiered exclusively on Billboard and follows an unlucky-in-love monster entering back into the scary world of dating through a series of comically catastrophic dates. Director PJ Liguori explained, “As soon as I heard dodie’s song, Monster, it immediately put images of hulking beasts and snivelling goblins in my mind… I was keen to try to tell a story within this music video where the protagonist is actually kind of awful. Ness is riding his adrenaline high of trying to find someone new, and hasn’t stopped to properly think about why his previous relationship even ended. He just feels bitter towards the one who took his heart, and will do anything to fill the void in chest.”
Majetic shares stunning “Lead Halo” video
Quote about video from Majetic: “”Both song and video obliquely express a relationship doomed to an unhealthy dynamic of substance addiction and emotional dependency. The concept for the video underwent a series of transformations as the production was met with new obstacles and opportunities. Two fragments which guided the concept through each iteration were the pierrot-like image of a cowboy and the obscurity of liminal space.”
