Tarantina unchains demonic visuals for dark pop odyssey "Fables"
UK multi-instrumentalist and videographer Tarantina today airs the bewitching self-produced clip for new single "Fables".
"Fables" joins up with debut track "I Am A Loner" - originally released as Wray - to tease debut EP Teething, which is due later this year.
Tarantina's new song is stretched between the worlds of trip-hop and avant-garde electronica, with chasms of bass and wild, windswept vocals slowly being suffocated by shadowy synths. Tarantina's visuals provide an eerie accompaniment to the track - Picasso-esque portraits, masked mannequins, creepy collages, and demonic paint vines all boost the innate darkness found in "Fable".
"'Fables' is about the lies we tell ourselves; the blinkers we wear to protect us from what we’d rather ignore," explains Tarantina. "I wrote 'Fables' mid-flight at high speed after jumping headfirst into a relationship that I knew wasn't going to end well (from the video, you can probably tell how that one turned out). The video combines stop motion animation and film and was shot in my bedroom."
