Maria Chiara Argirò unveils her forthcoming album, Closer
Rising electronic luminary Maria Chiara Argirò has announced her highly-anticipated album Closer, and has shared its title track.
The accompanying dance-based music video depicts a very personal story. The visual storytelling and cinematography showcase a constant forward momentum provided by dancer Klaudia Wittmann as she moves gracefully through different settings.
Director Raoul Paulet says: “A woman relives her journey on this planet in the pursuit of belonging. Only through the acceptance of the world around her, she can find our true self. Or, is it the other way round?”, whilst Argirò herself explains that the song, "explores the dream of navigating life, finding where you truly belong and discovering freedom within this feeling. It’s a journey centered on connecting with oneself and getting closer in a dreamlike world.”
“It is about a feeling, a dreamlike feeling in motion, a feeling that we cannot describe, a dream I’m sort of walking through. Emotions / dreams / feelings that sometimes you can just imagine, a dreamlike world where we walk through to get to the core of ourselves a bit more, even if things are completely undefined and blurry," Argirò says on the forthcoming album. "While working on the music there was this strong feeling - at times blurry and at times more defined - of getting, with every single note, closer and closer to the person I want to be. Free. Curious and consequently Aware, Connected and Closer to the people I love. There is so much noise in this world, I think being direct, gentle, light, open and connected is the key.”
