Platinum-selling producer Felix Cartal and Kiiara team-up to reveal the official music video for their dance-pop release, “Happy Hour” which is available to download/stream via Physical Presents.
Felix Cartal – Happy Hour (with Kiiara)
To coincide with the title of the track, the music video sees Felix Cartal enjoying a special at a bar and traverses an evening of debauchery fueled by reckless decisions. Featuring karaoke singing, spray painting, and swimming in an underground pool, the video has all of the trademark signs of an unforgettable night. The visual becomes the perfect pairing to the track’s fun-loving energy.
“The energy of the song is so go-go-go that the visuals we created had to be on the same level. We decided the best move for this was to create a simple surreal narrative because we could take the viewer anywhere and it didn’t need to make sense; as long as the world looked cool, we were on the right track.”
Director Kasey Lum
“Kasey and I have been making videos together since the beginning of both of our artistic careers. I believe the first thing we did was around 2011, possibly even earlier. I always feel fortunate that I’m able to create art for a living, but it’s even better to create art with your friends for a living. That being said, the hardest part of videos is getting them to match the mood of the song, and I feel like this one does that better than anything we’ve done before.”
