Ahead of their headline show at London’s acclaimed Rich Mix venue on 19th January, Brazilian tropical mutant punk funk duo Tetine launch a brand-new video for “Spaced Out in Paradise”, taken from their new album After the Future – out now on Slum Dunk Music, 2023.
The video for “Spaced Out in Paradise” was directed by Tetine’s vocalist/keyboard player Eliete Mejorado and recorded in different locations around greater London. It was conceived as an auto-philosophical-experimental sci-fi of a utopian, ecological and hallucinatory verve, articulated under distinct temporalities and spaces, where pasts, presents, futures (and non-futures) overlap amid a third new existential order yet to come. One apparent order that presents itself simultaneously as post-global and post-local, however in frank disintegration.
In this illusory non-place, Eliete Mejorado, Yoko Afi and Bruno Verner wander through a poetic sphere that is at the same time pastoral, numerical-digital, migratory, and aquatic in search of new possible utopias, latitudes, and longitudes in the cosmos, lulled by the icy, dreamy-lysergic atmosphere, and melancholy of “Spaced Out in Paradise” sung by Yoko and Bruno. In search of another planetary contact.
Spaced Out in Paradise is part of a series of poetic auto-fictions that will accompany the songs of After the Future and a striking taster of what to expect at Tetine’s upcoming 2024 London shows. DIY music of invention, independent, without handcuffs, and of strange beauty.
