Having just released their EP, Made To Measure, DARKSTAR have put out a new video featuring EMPRESS OF, for their track 'Reformer'.
The video while simple is still visually appealing, Empress Of is the main focus as she's on a beach at around dusk, singing while flashes of light and hard cuts to other shots of her singing break up most of the video.
The collaboration between Darkstar and Empress Of works well, her vocals fit the style of production that Darkstar make. James Young of Darkstar had this to say about how the song came to be:
"Lorely (Empress Of) came over to our studio, Konk, in North London at the end of summer, where we played through sketches we had. Lorely played a load of her stuff and we’d given her a beat that we’d been playing in some sets and wanted to do something with. She took it to the 4AD studio the next day and laid the top line on it. We got around to finishing it last month and I think she killed it. She’s one of the most capable artists I’ve been in a studio with and a great person to be in that environment with."
