Nick Carter

Nick Carter directs a striking visual interpretation of Sara Landry and Alt8's hard techno anthem around dancer&nbsp;Aimée Ruhinda's vibrant performance.With a combination of dynamic choreography and performance by Ruhinda - who embodies the music's driving intensity - and the atmospheric industrial setting, Carter creates a powerful synergy&nbsp;between sound and movement, with visuals that&nbsp;mirror the underground roots of the track, as both the director and DoP.With a visual palette dominated by shadowy tones, interspersed with vivid flashes of light that punctuate the track’s crescendos,&nbsp;the video for&nbsp;Heaven&nbsp;not only amplifies the track’s emotional impact but also cements Sara Landry’s place as a defining voice in hard dance.[imgtoken data:1]

Sara Landry, Alt8 'Heaven' by Nick Carter

Sara-Landry-'Heaven'-by-Nick-Carter

Nick Carter and&nbsp;Obaro Ejimiwe - aka Ghostpoet - co-direct&nbsp;a&nbsp;thought-provoking promo for the artist's&nbsp;track Oh Lord!Taken from the twice Mercury Prize-nominated artist's new EP Am I The Change I Wish To See?, the song&nbsp;was inspired by a moment of contemplation about what it would look like to see Black people enjoying themselves in Heaven. And for its part, the video takes the viewer on a communal journey that transcends the conventional depiction of Heaven.Instead of portraying the final destination, it envisions an intermediary space - a spiritual halfway point where the essential inner work required to reach Heaven is carried out.&nbsp;This space encourages viewers to think, connect, forgive, show love, and find self-acceptance- elements we often struggle with in our daily lives.Imbued with an aesthetic inspired by Romanticism-era art, the video is atmospheric and arresting, feeling almost liminal in its presentation.&nbsp;With a heavy focus on art direction and textural, abstract cinematography, it's an absorbing visual that leans into the themes of the concept.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;
