Lapalux displays his continued growth as a producer on his 2017 LP Ruinism (Brainfeeder) expanding his sonic palette while exploring new approaches to arrangement. “Petty Passion” finds Stuart Howard continuing to find ways to introduce negative space into his sensual and somatic arrangements, and here, with the help of some deep bass wobble, that drifting openness adds an ominous air of mystery to the track. The video for the cut is directed by Hirad Sab and it’s shibari-like visual motif is based on Marielle Tepper‘s album art for Ruinism. Described as an “ode to all that one could feel,” the video’s striking imagery presents the complexity of erotic encounters thru the metaphor of bondage.
This coming October Lapalux will launch a UK and European tour. You can find a list of the upcoming dates below, as well as ticket links for all the shows.
