Nedry, the outfit made up of Matt Parker, Chris Amblin and Ayu Okakita, are releasing the single ‘Violaceae’ this Monday March 5th.
A week later their somophore album In a Dim Light hits stores via Monotreme Records.
As previously mentioned, Nedry offered ‘Post Six’ and ‘Float’, two tracks off In a Dim Light, back in December.
The digital download of ‘Violacea’ includes a new edit of the the track and two remixes by Polinski and Gazelle Town.
Both the single and the album can be pre-ordered here.
The trio unveiled today the official video for ‘Violaceae’ made by Dan Tassell.
Here’s what he said about the video:
“The original idea was to create a video that explored a dream or a detachment from reality, a self contained world that could be informed by the atmosphere of the track. From an early stage we decided to create something quite stripped back to allow Ayu’s lyrics to take centre stage. Shooting in a studio allowed maximum control over the light and shadow and to explore Ayu’s performance at macro level picking up on subtle facial gestures and movements. The black and white format allowed us to have some fun exploring the relationship between light and dark to reflect the haunting undertone of the track and lyrics. Several animated sequences were used to locate Ayu within a self-contained ‘dreamworld’ in which she escapes from her imprisonment in a cocoon or shroud of darkness as the track progresses.”
