Ahead of his debut long player ‘Truth’, set for release on Hamburg’s hafendisko, here is ‘Take Me’ feat. vocal collaborator Josephine Philip (one half of the band Darkness Falls).
With ‘Take Me’ MANOID displays his production prowess radiantly fusing an amalgamation of crunchy drums, organic percussion and murky atmospherics alongside a chugging arpeggio bass lead whilst Josephine Philip’s infectious vocal stylings add a further hypnotic, emotive feel to the composition.
Created by Okime Emiko the music video for ‘Take Me’ features a maze in the forest, mirrors in all shapes and forms and model Magda Krawczyk.
“In addition to the music,” says Emiko,”the video was mostly inspired by the fantastic clothes from Paula Fiuk’s collection, the mirrors designed by Oskar Zięta, various plein-airs that we managed to nd, and last but not least Magda, my model. The very concept of the clip was very simple – the main character stays in the loop of her desire, dreams, and wishes. It’s almost like in a cocoon. This simplicity paradoxically led to a lot of freedom an improvisation on the set while working with Magda. It enabled us to freely select plein-airs, scenography and props, which in effect meant that filming was a constant search for each of us.”
