Kelpe today unveils the accompanying video for ‘Answered’ – the first single to be lifted from the London based producer’s eagerly awaited new album ‘Fourth: The Golden Eagle.’
The video, shot entirely on location in Copenhagen during the icy winter months, depicts a young girl’s spiral into strange a obsession and unhealthy addiction. Directed by Jonathan Lieb, the clip acts as the perfect accompaniment to ‘Answered’’s deeply involving electronic textures.
The 7-minute white noise drenched 'Answered' is being released as a maxi single on April 15th 2013. Kelpe says this of the lead track: “The proggy twinkles make me think of Christmas but the guitar and four to the four feel are also a touch balearic. The vocal samples and textures are Norwegian and make me think of Scandinavia. There's a video being made by Jonathan Lieb that he is filming in Denmark about a girl becoming obsessed with looking for jigsaw puzzle pieces.”
On the flipside of the maxi single sits 'Haunt' - which Kelpe credits with a similar mood to the 'Answered' but describes it as more pastoral, uptempo and heavier, with a slightly distorted 4 / 4 kick drum. There's also 'Barney's Dream' - “the newest track and sort of an ode to a lovely looking old ginger dog called Barney.”
*LIVE DATES 20th April - Koko, London (w/ Daedelus, Clark) 26th May - XOYO (Soundwave Launch), London
