Lea Porcelain ‘Future Hurry Slow’ video

Berlin-based duo Lea Porcelain return with a gorgeously shot video for their single 'Future Hurry Slow'. Directed by Lea Porcelain themselves along with Manu Ruge, the story revolves around three individuals all seemingly in their own world with little interaction, although technically occupying the same space. Singer Markus Nikolaus performs the song on stage whilst actress Alessandra Denegri plays a tormented woman sitting at a dinner table, watching the show. Producer Julien Bracht plays the role of a butler serving the woman but never says a word. Eventually Denegri breaks down crying on the floor...alone.

Lea Porcelain Interview

When I first heard tracks like ‘Similar Familiar’ and ’Out Is In’ by Berlin-based Lea Porcelain, I was completely blown away. Taking the modern sounds of electronic music and fusing it with a culmination of styles including post-punk, indie and more, I was completely addicted to their recordings. Imagery of dark music venues, performance art and late night studio sessions would pop up in my head as the music completely took over me. So when I read that Lea Porcelain was performing at O’Meara in South East London, I jumped on the train and headed over. Like the pictures in my head, their performance filled with flashing lights flying among the dark silhouettes of the band whilst their practically perfect to the recordings sound pulsed through the venue, was everything that I needed and more.

Having shared tracks from their upcoming EP 'Lea Porcelain Remixed' including reworks from Scuba, as well as Ruede Hagelstein & Amin Fallaha, Lea Porcelain now unveil a new version of their track 'Remember', courtesy of Thom alt-J. Probably one of the more left-field remixes we've heard, the first two and a half minutes are spearheaded by menacing synths and vocals dipped in reverb. Quite miminal and eerie, boot-kicking drums then erupt towards the end, shifting the cut further into obscure territory.
