Nailah Hunter shares new single, “Strange Delights"

“Strange Delights” comes accompanied by a conceptual video directed by Haoyan Of America.

According to Nailah Hunter: “"Strange Delights" started as an improv over a modular synth loop that my partner made. At the time, we were burning a bunch of incense in a dark room, which served as inspiration for the wandering vocal melody. Once I worked on it with producer Cicely Goulder, "Strange Delights" took on a more golden quality that reminds me of a hazy and intoxicated feast in a peculiar, yet familiar wood."

Regarding the video, director Haoyan Of America shares: “The idea for "Strange Delights" was developed through conversations with Nailah and inspired by her interest in crocodilian ‘tapetum lucidum’ (Latin for “shining layer”), a biologic reflector system common in the eyes of vertebrates that give them enhanced night vision. The visual arc takes cues from the song's musical progression and highlights contrasting evolutionary ecologies.”
