Watch The Music Video for Vitalic’s Haute Definition
DISSIDÆNCE Episode 1, the anticipated fifth album from acclaimed French producer, Vitalic, is out now on vinyl, digital and across all major streaming platforms.
Vitalic has also released the music video for ‘Haute Definition’, the final single from DISSIDÆNCE Episode 1. Fusing the disco-tinged influences of his 2017 album, Voyager, with harder, techno-oriented sounds, in this track, Vitalic surprises his fans and, for the first time in his career, puts his vocals in French on the track.
A hybrid metallic voice whispers on top of Vitalic’s signature disco bass line, conjuring memories of his legendary hit ‘Poison Lips’.
The music video for ‘Haute Definition’ explores our notions of love and relationships in the Internet era, as those now often lack an essential element: friendship. If true love is also companionship, building those deeper bonds has become a complex, semi-mystical process that cannot happen on demand.
The video follows two characters becoming conscious actors of their love, building up their feelings from scratch and bringing them to life, by proxy, for a candid audience. It brings up the question – in this digital age, what is more beautiful than the dream of true love?
DISSIDÆNCE Episode 1 marks 20 years of Vitalic’s esteemed career and culminates influences from across his body of work from his iconic 2007 ‘V Live’ album to the dreamy, cosmic journey of Voyager. Details for DISSIDÆNCE Episode 2 will be announced in the coming weeks.
