Polish experimental composer Stefan Weso\u0142owski today released his new album\u00a0Song of the Night Mists<\/em><\/a>\u00a0<\/a>via Unheard of Hope. Weso\u0142owski also shared the surreal and cinematic new video for the album’s towering, five-minute opener “Core<\/a>,” co-directed by Helena Ganjalyan & Bartosz Szpak. With its slow build, and crackling and straining sound effects, the song resembles the sound of earth groaning into life in a creation myth. The “Core” video matches the song’s atmospherics with dreamlike exploration. The directors explain:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In our concept, we combine the theme of nature vs the human element contained by the artist in the music with the Japanese concept of inemuri (a short nap taken in a public place). We are interested in a consideration of human presence in a world that emanates constant development, momentum and movement\u2013symbolized by a large, multi-layered city. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We look at the parallel stories of five characters\u2013people from different walks of life: an office worker, a street mime, a woman from high society, a normal girl, and a young boy. In each case, we begin the cinematic observation from their nap in a public place. Their visual structures and the pulse of the city constitute the background for the choreographic exploration of sleep\u2013a state that seemingly seems impossible to interpret in this way, being perceived as motionless. Building a palette of actions, we try to look for things stretched between suspension and momentum, pause and movement, between sleep and reality.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
