“The video for HONU made by volk.be, is based on the Guy Vandenbranden \u2018Composition\u2019 artwork from 1967 and combines 70-ish graphics with images of a Honu (Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle) \u2014 the inspiration behind the song’s title.<\/p>\n

The landscape was paradisiacal, as if it were plucked straight from the front of a postcard. Not a cloud marred the sky, the only thing that stirred the surroundings was a gentle breeze that rippled gently through the crystal clear waters. It were as if you were looking through a glass floor; the vibrant colours of the sea life and seabed below bursting forth in HD. It all felt too perfect, too squeaky clean. Something ugly had to be lurking somewhere.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
