Jack Garratt has released a new video.
The visceral clip accompanies three new tracks: the effervescent Get In My Way, Mend A Heart, and Better. It's the latest in an eight-part longform visual series which will accompany his forthcoming album, 'Love, Death & Dancing', while the songs make up 'Vol.2' of his EP drip-feed of the record.
The video sees Garratt take to the dancefloor, freestyling to woozy electronica beats and juddering synths, showcasing his ear for slick production. He said:
“Better is a dance song about the end of times. It’s a song about the claustrophobia some of us feel when confronted by daily reminders of how a change outside of our control is coming, and how we force ourselves into repetitive sequences of familiarity and nostalgia to feel safe again. It’s a distracting fable about self-awareness and futile escapism.”
‘Love, Death & Dancing’ marks the follow-up to the multi-instrumentalist’s acclaimed 2016 debut LP, ‘Phase’, and will arrive on June 12 via Island Records.
