Recently the Toronto act Bile Sister dropped the music video for Real Dreams.
The second single is taken from Living on the Edge which comes out on July 21, 2023 via We Are Time.
A dark hazy experimental electro-pop tune.
About the track by Bile Sister:
“Real Dreams” speaks on the boundless drive that carries a music project to completion. Marked by clanging percussion, quivering synthesizers, and noisy bass, the song embodies Reich’s propulsive creative spirit and her protean approach to production and songwriting.
Bile Sister says about the song: “I use the metaphor of having a dream or aspiration as having a virus that is contagious and infectious. You need to be excessively motivated to work on a music project, complete it and share it with the world in this day and age where artists don’t really gain financially and work tirelessly. Perhaps we do it because it’s part of our identity, it’s in our spirit, and we are the ideas of tomorrow. There’s something infectious about having a vision and seeing it through even with little gain. It’s still a beautiful thing.”
The single comes with a fantastic, mind-bending music video by Jonathan Carroll of SpekWork Studio. The video is part of a speculative design practice and imagines a social media app that projects out from current technologies and cultural trends to visualize the abstracted & mediated forms socializing may take in the future. Inspired by apps like VRChat and the contemporary feeling of alienation, the video shows four friends meeting at some point in the future to party and trip out in a space that pulsates along with the music.
