The track is lifted from their third album Blush Response, and it captures the trio’s signature mix of intimacy and atmosphere. The song itself feels like a confession whispered through the speakers, with Kate Durman singing, “When will you realize I am obsessed with you / Promise me you’ll always try to make it work.”

Alongside the video release, Acopia also shared some big news: they’re heading out on a North American tour in 2026, and you can check their itinerary on the poster below.

]]> 65032 Electronic auteur Purient opens new era with “Mwah” video https://highclouds.org/purient-mwah-video/ Thu, 24 Oct 2024 19:40:12 +0000 https://highclouds.org/?p=63864 As a DIY electronic producer and vocalist, Purient, the alter ego of Kate Durman, crafts ethereal atmospheres with bold, experimental arrangements. Her unique style has caught the attention of notable artists like Eartheater and Varg2™, who have remixed her work. Durman is also one-third of the dream-pop band Acopia. Two years after her WBWU EP, Purient has just announced her upcoming EP, Mwah, due out November 21.

Released today, the EP title track, “Mwah,” blends somber harmonies with pulsating low-end frequencies. It creates an uncanny mood that transmute emotional depth into an audacious club-ready experience. The Melbourne-based artist’s single is complemented by a visually striking music video, helmed by director Jamie Timony and cinematographer Jordan Hourigan. Set against the backdrop of Melbourne’s urban landscape, the clip deepens Purient’s artistic exploration of human connection, imagination, longing, closeness, and alienation.

Purient also shared insights into the creation of “Mwah”, stating, “When making ‘Mwah’, I was noticing a change in my personal growth, self-worth, and letting go of what people might think of me. The lyrical content is simple, but to me runs a little deeper.” Watch, stream and support below.
