Ben Lukas Boysen has an amazing new video for his track “Medela” from the Berlin-based producer’s Mirage LP out now on Erased Tapes. The animated 3D visuals was created by Studio Torsten Posselt, and much like Boysen’s music on the new album, they blur the lines between the virtual and what seems real in beguiling ways.
When describing Mirage this past April, the musician had explained that many of the elements and instruments on the record were either “not what you think they are, or exactly what you think they are…,” but behaving unexpectedly. Likewise, the animated worlds of “Medela” offer sumptuous details that slide between looking like computer generated reality and real, physical matter. Discussing the video, Studio Torsten Posselt offers:
The idea for the Medela video came quite naturally while we were working on the cover art. Since all the groundwork was already laid down and partly “thanks” to the Covid 19 lockdown, I spent all my time animating, distorting and texturising some of the created 3D sculptures that nicely melted together with Ben’s music and the result became this video for the fabulous track Medela.”
