Seeking beauty inside dystopia
Introducing HEZEN, the French London-based singer-songwriter who invites us into a dystopian world that seeks light and beauty within the chaos and imperfection of human experience. Infusing infectious and hypnotic elements of hyper pop with a wide range of electronic influences from Eartheater to Aphex Twin, HEZEN builds a sound that experiments at every opportunity.
Her latest single Pure Again draws listeners into the electrified atmosphere of a club, exploring the connections between two lovers during the final hours of a night spent amongst a crowd of gyrating bodies.
The release is accompanied by an entrancing video, which illustrates this story though a psychedelic lens. The audio visual experience uses AI to mould the two lovers into each other, creating an image that leaves us all feeling dizzy. The world of HEZEN is not for the faint hearted…forcing us to reconcile in a whirlwind of lust, passion and the unfamiliar.
