Elektromonteur. "E-class"

On March 8, in the new space of the Theater of Nations, the duet Cinty Nuar and Dancing Romances Elektromonteur arranges a special spring concert “Every woman should have me” . To this event, the group saved the premiere of the surreal clip, which sheds light on the attitude of ironic romantics from Elektromonteur to women. In the title role-the old "Mercedes" of E-class.

The clip was shot by Yegor Babichev - a graduate of the Moscow school Wordshop Music Video (workshop of Andrei Musina and Alena Kukushkina).

Egor Babichev, director

This directorial work is not the first for me (I have been working on television for a long time), but the first serious work in the genre of Musical Video. When the question arose about the choice of musicians, I wanted to dwell on someone close in musical aesthetics. Therefore, I had no doubt when I first heard the song “E-Class” “Electricians”. I myself have always been passionate about electronic music, especially the music of the 80s. And the Italo-Disco genre, in which the musicians created this song, is one of my loved ones.

Initially, there was an idea to show Mikhail as a hero-traveler who is in parallel in two worlds and wants to find out what choice he can make. Sanchir acted as a guide. At the same time, I wanted to embody on the screen the stage images of musicians as cold, but ironic romantics.

I tried to show the musical style of the group through visual images. For example, lilac color, cellophane, some female images that refer us to the new wave and aesthetics of the 80s. Also on the set, an anamorphic optics was used, creating a vintage, as it were, air, the image, which created a parallel with an analog sound of the group.

In the work on the script, you can trace Ommazhi Kluzo, Fridkin, Lynch, Akin. Some visual images are inspired by Fellini's films.

Following the words of the song, the hero escapes, plunges into his own ephemeral, no touched world. And I invite each look into this other reality. You have a choice - go or stay.

I did not know that our weekends from the side looked so pompous.

Anyway: I remember the Chernenkoy, I remember the little white, but this one with the cake - this was definitely not there! Oh! Well, it cannot be!

Mercedes was good.
