Blind Orbits

Blind Orbits are a music collective formed in Coventry in 2023. They've already enjoyed impressive collaborations with the likes of Wu-Tang affiliate Killah Priest and renowned Hip-Hop producer Krohme, coupled with heavy radio play in the US, with notable support from Public Enemy’s Chuck D - Blind Orbits are very much a group in the ascendancy.

 

It was a great honour to be asked to create 2 visualisers to support the release of their debut EP The Time, The Tide. The brief for both visualisers from the band was simple… create my own visual interpretation of each song.

 

Along with the full-length video content for each track I also created a number of shorter form videos which were used on the group's various social media platforms.

The Time, The Tide

Using a combination of digitised 8mm and 16mm archive film, I created a narrative that evokes a sense of nostalgia, memories of better days, hopefulness and the movement and the preciousness of time.

Having worked with Tim in previous lives, I have always been impressed at his never-ending flow of creativity. The images that Tim presents have always captured the mood of his music perfectly, both lyrically and sonically

Reborn

 

Drawing inspiration from a variety of archive footage, I created my own visual narrative for the song, based on how it made me feel and what I visualised while listening. The use of subways, dark stations, travel and the sense of being watched were the main themes for this video, all underpinned by a black and white visual aesthetic, with the occasional hint of colour to create ethereal atmospheres.

"We (blind orbits) approached Tim with a straight forward remit; free reign to interpret our music in his own way. A blank canvas to create visions and imagery that reflected the mood of the sonic soundscapes we create. The results were so on point; emotive, stark, nostalgic, progressive. Our music captured perfectly and beautifully"
