Artist Quote
“Blondie” was one of the first tracks we wrote as a band. We were influenced by many different artists and genres for this track, from the sound of 90’s shoegaze guitars, to 80’s new wave synths & vocals, to modern indie drum beats. Over the past two years we were able to mold it into something we were happy with. We wanted to try to make the music video unique, not just a typical band performance. Experimentation was necessary to make it as original as we can, and with the talent and support of Black Lake (the video production company), we attempted to translate the album theme/style of Dream Noise” to video, with swaying slow-motion visuals and black & white film textures.
