New York-based duo Tiger Love have unveiled the first single from their much-anticipated debut album, By Roy and Gigi, with an incredibly NSFW (and beautiful) new video clip for the LP's first single, Space In Space. Featuring model Aliyah Galyautdinova on a journey of self-pleasuring discovery, it'd be easy to write the clip off as exploitative, but according to director and one half of Tiger Love, Gigi Ben Artzi, it's about much more:
"The video is trying to expose one more aspect in modern female liberation, such as many did before; how feeling comfortable with your body, sensuality and sexuality is important for young women to be able to see more frequently as well as discuss more openly throughout the media and arts and by that assist and support women with self validating their sexual needs. Aliyah Galyautdinova...is very confident about exposing her body since she believes it’s something that all women do but not as often feel comfortable talking about. The video portrays and follows her own fantasies without holding anything back. It is unique in a way that it expresses our honest sexual needs as individuals without compromising its artistic value."
The single, kinda like a MGMT rinsed through a 70s-era psychedelic discoteque and then slowed down a little by AIR, follows on from their 2012 single Summer Rain, and for many has been a long time coming, and if they were wanting to make an impact following a couple of years out of the spotlight, they've succeeded:
