Last week, Clark released the Flame Rave EP, a companion piece to Clark, his critically acclaimed album from last year. The EP continues the Warp producer's action-packed explorations of dystopian club music. "Silver Sun" was the EP's lead single, and now a video has been paired up with hard-hitting techno banger "To Live and Die in Grantham."
In the video, a man walks along in a trance, bringing a one-man rave out into the broad daylight. At times he flails like an in-the-zone EDM fan, other times he glides like an interpretive dancer. The video's director, Christopher Hewitt, stated that he wanted the video to represent the "archaic, almost tribal nature of a nightclub," and he hits the nail on the head. As the video ends, the man kneels, shirtless, breathless, and spiritually changed. Clark is currently on tour with Nosaj Thing, dates are below.
