The latest wonderfully delicate number to be taken from Julia Holter’s upcoming Ekstasis album, ‘In The Same Room’ has a new video. Scatted percussion and beautifully fragile vocals now accompany a series of dream like images courtesy of director Hilary Walsh.
Speaking about the video Walsh said:
“When I first heard to Julia’s “In The Same Room,” I felt an inherent response to portray the song through a day dream sequence. To convey the subconscious day-dream wandering and create a surreal juxtaposition, we shot on Bolex, Super 8, and digital formats, and used sun-drenched landscapes mixed with interior shots. Wyatt, the editor, layered the files to give dimensional qualities to the interior shots. The song is about trying to remember someone or specifically place someone’s face. The layering of film formats, colour themes, and shoot environments sequences represents the flooding of a lifetime of memories.”
