Pantha Du Prince - Black Noise album trailer

A visual album trailer for Black Noise by Pantha Du Prince.

This trailer is a series of animations linking together the audio clips from Pantha Du Prince's forthcoming album, Black Noise.

The animations were created by Ashley Dean of Broken Pixel:

"Described by Pantha Du Prince as 'a frequency inaudible to man, something archaic and earthly, the calm before the storm', the phenomenon of Black Noise was as much of a challenge to render in visual media as it was to make an album that encapsulated this elusive substance. The central process used for the trailer was part mechanical automation, part digital archaeology; an excavation of still and moving images, looking beyond their native pixels into seams of solid colour and unstable shapes. The forms that were explored came from similar natural sources as the music, the harsh powers of wind and ice, the beauty of distant lightning and the comfort of warm, external rain.
And sometimes, the beats and rhythms of the music engulf and dictate the process. When the bass thumps at the diaphragm, kaleidoscopic waves and pounding concentric circles dominate the screen. When the treble glistens and the microsamples skip and tick, so do the visuals, using myriad techniques to distort and deconstruct once recognisable images.

The visualisation of sound is always a combination of personal expression and artistic expectation but when the music takes hold there is no other option but to let it show you what to do..."

Black Noise is released on 8th of February via Rough Trade Records
