Final yr, Gordi and SOAK joined forces for the collaborative Lunch At Dune EP. At the moment, Gordi — who was our Artist To Watch in 2016 — is again with the cinematic “Alien Cowboy.”
“I used to be occupied with what a homosexual utopia would appear like,” Gordi says of the tune, persevering with:
Mr Morale & The Huge Steppers had simply come out and we had it blaring by the audio system. I sat down on the piano and we recorded this low, subby, deteriorated half. I used to be imagining a scene — stumbling by the desert and this mirage seems, this stunning Salvador Dalí-type world. The whole lot is melting and there’s this large determine, with their hand outstretched inviting me in. Fabricating an imaginary place the place, as queer folks, you can really feel wholly accepted. After I bought to the refrain, I needed to show this fictitious place into one thing inner, and all of a sudden possibly it’s not a spot in any respect, however a sense.
“Alien Cowboy” is co-produced with Matias Mora and blended by Kayla Reagan. Gordi provides concerning the music video, “I defined this concept to my buddy, Maddy Purdy, who put collectively an idea for a video. She stated there could be two characters within the video — an individual who owned a scorpion, and the scorpion. I used to be to play each. It took practically 2 hours to get the contacts in my eyes.”
The disorienting, blue-laden visuals match the otherworldly aura of the music; see for your self beneath.
