The Clamor, outfit of NYC based musician, producer, author (and more) Aaron Louis, are back with a stop-motion video for "Staircase Stomp". "Staircase Stomp" delves into the allure of self-destructive behavior, and a call to reconsider those darker tendencies. The song navigates the recognition of a sense of emptiness and unmet desires in life, coupled with an internal rebellion and the quest for comfort and connection.
Aaron Louis on the music video, "The Staircase Stomp music video by The Clamor brings together the meticulous stop-motion artistry of Jody McKee and the dynamic digital animation of Scotty Hull to explore themes of identity and inner conflict. With the animator's haunting visuals, and lyrics that delve into psychological tension, the video blurs the lines between external chaos and internal struggles, offering what I hope is a meaningful reflection on the complexity of self-awareness."
The Clamor’s single “Staircase Stomp” is meticulously crafted, with production, tracking, and mixing helmed by Jeff Berner at Studio G in Brooklyn, NY. The Clamor's musical lineup boasts Aaron Louis on vocals, guitar and organ, accompanied by Gary Atturio on bass, Omer Leibovitz and Kirk Schoenherr on guitar, Aleida Gehrels on viola, Nicole Williams on cello, Shin-Yi Yang on guzheng, and Layton Weedeman on drums. Assisting in the engineering process are Ross Colombo and Leah Gutman, while mastering is expertly handled by Alan Douches at West West Side Music in NYC. Cover art is by Bill Smith who is responsible for over 2000 music covers from the likes of Kate Bush, Genesis, The Cure, The Jam, Led Zeppelin, King Crimson, Van Morrison, Queen, The Rolling Stones and many others. |
