Berlin-based French duo H.L.M. - an abbreviation of Haute Levitation Mutee - have unveiled the video for their new single "Architecture Compliquée".
The duo composed by long time friends Guillaume Laidain & Andrew Claristidge, made their debut last month on the latest in Ombra International's V/A series. Hot on the heels of the release, the pair now release their first official single. Recorded between Bordeaux and Berlin over the course of lockdown and periods of isolation, the track "tells the story of the architecture of a complex brain, the process of construction immediately followed by destruction" and is backed up by two remixes from the Ombra boss himself, Curses.
Could you erase the thoughts that had clogged your brain for as long as you could remember? Could you start afresh with no memories, no identity, no idea of where you'd been or gone? The mind had been on a path to destruction for what seemed like an eternity, it was only a matter of time before the pendulum swung the other way. Maybe beginning with an empty vessel wouldn't be all that bad, maybe it would be a chance to do things over, to write the wrongs that had long plagued your existence.
