Talking about the video, Tom Furse explained “The video was made by taking a video Alexis shot on his phone of him miming to the track and me using all manner of AI and other wizardry to transform that into this psychedelic representation, telling his story of love as he drifts through and past the world.”
Speaking on the collaboration, Alexis says “Teneil & I wanted to make a song together and kept excitedly talking about it. I expected a techno banger but was so pleased that she sent this transcendental hyperballad. I went into a trance and recorded these words straight away, “The heart shows signs that must not be ignored.” This song may crush you emotionally, if you are open to it.”
Since the start of the year, HAAi has seamlessly transitioned from one of the most in-demand DJs working today into becoming a truly prolific figure within electronic music. She’s appeared on the cover of magazines across the UK; released brand new collaborations with Jon Hopkins, Romy (the xx) & Fred Again; had multiple singles playlisted across the BBC, was selected as an ambassador for Spotify’s EQUAL campaign (complete with a Times Square billboard); completed her debut US tour (including a stop at Detroit’s legendary MOVEMENT); appeared at every major festival this summer and played acclaimed, high-octane sets from Istanbul to Australia and everywhere in between. Throughout it all, she has released some of the most thoughtful and innovative singles in recent memory to become a new vanguard of electronic music.
