We had said it in a previous article: I was the sun, from the Venezuelan duo The Little Revenge (one of the best songs we've heard this year) is a perfect track for soundtracks of long journeys and times of intimacy on the move. This composition, which seems calm at first, but as it plays fills the heart with gentle gall, is a theme described by its authors as “a praise of all those who yearn for past glories”. A resentment that festers in the body of someone who once celebrated triumphs and was then ostracized. A character eager to turn the tables. and return to the days of smiles, but without any desire to pay a fine for his mistakes, instead assuming the role of someone who doesn't need nor does he intend to apologize at any time.
Perhaps because of all this explanation, the audiovisual producer Joe Torres He came to the conclusion that when editing the video for this song I had to turn everything upside down. Using a desolate seascape, he flipped the images and the panorama changed. The captured space is no longer just a symbol of solitude, but It is filled with a strange and calm despair. The ocean takes the place of the sky, but its calm waves fill the viewer with doubt. and adds more drama to the sound. The traveler carrying his luggage across the sand seems lost on the route, while he hears the flight of birds, their bellies showing the clouds. That feeling that the recording has of to belong to the soundtrack of a western film His performance grows and gains greater drama when the vague footsteps of the traveler are seen on the water at the beach. In short, I was the sun It's a really good song that finds a great visual representation in this clip.
This is an exquisite audiovisual product. Let's hope that The Little Revenge Find your audience on the continent more easily through this work.
