With a lavish, contemplative style comparable to Ellie Goulding and London Grammar, Los Angeles-based electronic duo Néonhèart is set to release their debut EP Awakening. Canadian singer Christina O’Connor and Chinese songwriter/producer HAOO create an intoxicating sound on the shimmering first single “Comatose”, but the beauty of the track is amplified in the gorgeous new video, which we’re very pleased to premiere.
“The video for ‘Comatose’ is a conversation between the protagonist and herself, intimately capturing the inside of a young girl’s psyche and the inner struggle she faces within herself; bearing light on the two faces that we wear,” the band says. “With a heartfelt performance by actress Alexandria Jade, director Marta M. Dymek flawlessly mixes regular live action footage along with frozen images captured by the Lytro Illum to add to the surreal nature of the context.”
Awakening will be released 30 June (iTunes).
