The Fat Angel Sings

Here’s the video for “Crystallized” from Parisian Melody Prochet’s eponymous debut album, released late last year.Recorded with Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker in Perth in the Summer of 2012, “Crystallized” but one of the numerous highlights, a frenetic, scorched pop song that vividly demonstrates Prochet’s talent for blurring the lines between her classically trained ear and penchant for experimental sonics.

The track has a very mellifluous syncopation to it, built from many repetitious looped sounds, so in the film I wanted to visually connect these sounds to simple actions exploring the imminent demise of love. By that I mean the beauty of the beginning and the end and the recursive behaviour that those feelings inspire in between.”
