EX:RE THE DAZZLER

Daughter's Elena Tonra released her stunning self-titled debut album under her new moniker Ex:Re at the end of 2018. Bringing in the new year with a bang, Ex:Re's new video for her breathtaking album track 'The Dazzler' is a cinematic piece inspired by Alfred Hitchcock, which stars actress and all-round legend Maxine Peake. Providing the perfect aesthetic for 'The Dazzler's slow burning beats and sparse electronic elements, the masterfully lit clip borrows its colour palette from Hitchcock’s Vertigo as directors Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard explain, "our hotel room becomes a kaleidoscopic vision of a world stuck in an endless loop. Swimming in regret and drowning in thick alcohol...Elena told us The Dazzler was a real place, but we wanted to transform it into a hotel of the mind. That lost, sedated limbo you get stuck in when you can’t get over your last relationship." Watch it here now. -Holly Mullineaux
