Night Tapes - Selene (Official lyric video)

Director: Eugene Tumusiime
Cinematography: Eugene Tumusiime, Iiris Vesik
Producer, Engineer: Night Tapes
Mixer: Nathan Boddy
Engineer: Matt Colton
Selene is a song is about the illusion of perfection, the Moon and the subconscious. How it’s easy to project our hopes and ideals either into the future or onto our partners - all the while real life remains imperfect, excellent and ever-changing. The line “good life, long love” was taken from a fortune cookie, the basis of this song came from Richies dream.
A friend told me once - surfing is constant falling.

LYRICS:
good life, long love
it’s so easy to be complicated
it’s so hard to be simple baby
it’s so hard to be simple baby
maybe
she’s only perfect ‘cause she’s far away
in the spaces in between you can be anything
Selene Selene Selene
good life, long love
interstellar when you’re understated
tell me if we could be integrated
the reflection of a goddess in me
baby
she’s only perfect ‘cause she’s far away
in the spaces in between you can be anything
Selene

And another one for the many of us waiting for them to become big knowing it’s just around the corner ♥️ (which means more banger songs for us as well !!!! 🫣😍)

Seriously

[@Whenthoughtsmaycome]

Yo why the hell!!! I can’t believe I found this

[@TheMidnightBandit]

Selene is my favorite Goddess. There's a story about how she fell in love with a mortal man granted eternal youth, at a price. He was to remain asleep forever. Having control over dreams, she visited him there every night. That's love.

[@Acetyl53]

That's pretty much my interpretation of the Adam Eve and Lilith story. Eve is a dream, a fantasy world.

When the mix is so layered that it momentarily gives you synaesthesia

[@justramen1660]

So ethereal and underrated Oml

[@chosen_remnant]

They're not even well known enough yet to be underrated! I'm quite sure once they are well known enough they certainly will not be underrated. They're way too good and sound way too different.

[@Kuzey457]

Her voice has a 80s RnB vibe with sound to match. Think Anita Baker singing with shoegaze sound to a Y2K aesthetic backdrop. Perfect.

[@leoklin2690]

I found out about you guys just an hour ago, and now I can’t stop listening to your songs… your sound is so unique (reminding me of grimes & hiatus kaiyote)🪬 keep exploring your limits!✨ I will come back for more💗

[@chosen_remnant]

This group is going to blow up beyond belief here in the states once the US grabs hold of this sound. Such a gorgeous, otherworldly sound.

[@Gonnie6969]

💯

[@Bradleyey]

I think that depends on a lot of factors. This band's sound is definitely based on a lot of other bands that preceded them, and while I personally really dig this band, it's ultimately all about exposure and marketing nowadays when you're one grain of salt in an ocean of people trying to be the next big musical act. I wish them luck!

[@AnnaMullin]

I’m like Maddie prohibition era vfw era. Bethany wants to be a flapper that bad huh?

[@pekecabra]

This music is absolutely amazing, haven't been this stunned by art in a minute!!!

[@sanford360]

I watched this video like every day for the past month. Something about the way the baseline just drops out of nowhere in the beginning and the perfectly on beat robotic dance moves with that stoic face just invokes some kind of chemical response in my body. Like the same feeling as when you hear a hard baseline or a dirty drop and just make that stink face. Weird to explain but I absolutely love it.

[@elodyluna]

i love it and deeply connect to what you said here

[@sanford360]

@@elodyluna So awesome to know someone else feels the same way as I do when I hear this tune! Makes me feel more in tune with the world. Wish there were more people like us in Central Florida!

These lyrics are very poetic. Really lovely song, the chorus reminds me a lot of this experimental old song Selene by Gong (but this is prettier!)
