Khaled Hejira has just shared the video for his debut single ‘Arrivée.’ The French experimental artist released the track late last year via Neo Atlas, backed with a mesmerizing b-side ‘Born From A Wish.’
The new video features military-style visuals that pulse and change along with the track, setting the tone for the futuristic feel. Other-worldly vocals scattered sparsely into the track are emphasised by text, with mandala-like patterns radiating across the screen at random intervals.
Speaking of the track Hejira says: “This two-track single introduces this project after ten years of experimentation through different genres. It started to take form last year when I genuinely did the music I like without over-thinking during the process of creation. A synthesis based on fragments from the different roads I’ve explored.” For the official music video he adds, “This video is the first stone of a story I want to develop and narrate through a project who will accompany my music. The story is set in 2052, where an international organization deploy their multi-purpose machines after an undisclosed event.”
