British-Somali poet, rapper and Neofolk singer-songwriter Knomad Spock has shared the music video for his latest single Gift. The track is taken from his debut album Winter Of Discontent, which is set for release on 23rd April 2021 via Hinterland Creative – the new label of LIFE drummer Stewart Baxter.
The video for the track was created by Hull film maker Luke Hallet, who says of the video: “When I first heard the track I was immediately inspired by the finger-picked guitar and the soothing sound of Knomad’s voice. It brought forward imagery of trees and leaves, with the sunlight shining through them casting dappled shade on the ground. The song made me feel warm and reminiscent of days past, bringing memories of places I would visit with my Grandparents.
“I wanted the video to feel like one of those memories, or like being in a dream – fleeting moments of thought that suddenly drift to another place the more you focus on them. It was shot in first person, seeing the world how I see it. Rather than having any significant meaning, I simply wanted to create a piece that accompanies the sonic space and let the track speak for itself.”
