NOPRISM is the stage name for Newcastle based indie innovators Andrew Young and Mark Nelson. Channeling electronica-infused pop with hints of 80’s new wave; the pair are set to release their highly anticipated new single and music video ‘Pantherbeat’. The duo are already ahead of the game, having reached over 150K Spotify Streams combined, and their previous release ‘Happiness’ was championed by Duran Duran’s Simon LeBon, and featured on E4’s Made in Chelsea.
We are thrilled to premiere the video for “Pantherbeat” below! The video uses monochromatic visuals featuring a lean tattooed boxer training for a big fight – using footage from Russian videographer Cottonbro. The video perfectly encapsulates the energy of the song. It’s big, pulsing, intense and energetic. It’s the kind of high tech uppercut that you want in your ears when you’re working out, or you just need to psych yourself up.
In their own words:
“Pantherbeat, is actually the first song written by the band when we first began writing last year, and now feels like the right time to release it. It’s main lyric ‘You’ve gotta have faith’ sounds pretty apt right now, even though it wasn’t an intentional statement. It’s about the onset of a headrush… when the next high is about to kick in, or when the needle is about to drop on a big record. That brief moment of expectation and euphoria.”
“We’ve used Cottonbro’s footage for each release so far as it has a strange otherworldly feel to it, and we take multiple clips to piece together some kind of loose story which is told alongside the song. The videos have very much become part of the aesthetic of each release.”
