Both tracks are taken from their sixth studio album "We Weren’t Here", released in September last year via Sonic Ritual. Get it here.
About the video for "Take What You Need", Director Laura Conway explains:
"Place is crucial for me and I often start with a location as the first character. In this case it was the Media Archeology lab and their workshop of beautiful (and functioning!) machines. Once I listened to the song, which is all about living your truth, a story started emerging about a computer tech encountering a computer virus that red pills her into the realization that she is also a dancer. I have been looking for a project to collaborate on with choreographer and mover Constance Harris because her choreography is so dynamic and when she performs I am completely transfixed. As we developed the look and ideas Constance Harris, my costume designer Andrea Ballas, and I talked about references from Grace Jones and Bruce Conner, to Black Box, and Spike Lee's Girl 6. The video also nods to the buried history of women, especially black women, in the development of early computer programming, which has been erased by the silicon nightmare/regime we currently live under.”
“Continuing on Laura’s ideas here, to me this video not only celebrates women and diversity in early computer programming, but also the underrepresented diversity and POC in our music genre, past and present.” - Singer Greg Bertens
On "Superperfection" video, Director Christin Turner, says:
"Superperfection follows the psychedelic undergrowth encroaching on mysterious and breathtaking structures. The music video was shot on 16mm Kodak film in the forested ruins in Sintra, Portugal, and the Carmo Convent Ruins in Lisbon, stitched together in oscillating light. Waves of color overtake the real and place us back into the surreality of film. The video interprets the song's lyrics as an overtaking of civilization by all forms of wild-ness in the foreseeable future - as pattern that repeats throughout the centuries. The world without humans is animated using camera effects, colors, and movement. Experimental film techniques push into the frame, as if to introduce an alternate reality that underlies it all. True wildness emerges from vibrant inner experiences."
