Synopsis

A DJ enters a pole-dance rehearsal studio and begins building a track with a pad controller. As the electronic beat develops, Bad Aby's pole-dance performance takes over the room, with multiple versions of the dancer appearing around the studio. Her movements are manipulated through speed changes, repetition and reverse playback, turning the choreography into a visual extension of the music. The video unfolds like a continuous handheld shot, blending live performance, music production and playful visual trickery.

Factoids & Trivia

  • The music is by Henry Dutton, while the video features choreography and performance by pole dancer Bad Aby.
  • The production was associated with David Dutton's early music-video and screendance work. The project is dated to 2011.
  • The video was shot in East London, according to contemporary promotional material.
  • Its central piece of music equipment is a Korg PadKontrol, a 16-pad MIDI controller used to trigger and layer sounds during the performance.
  • The visual effects repeatedly multiply Bad Aby within the studio. Her movements are also accelerated and played backward, creating the impression that several dancers are sharing the same space.
  • The video's apparent long take is simulated through continuous-looking movement and in-camera-style transitions, allowing the performance and electronic production setup to feel connected.
  • The project sits between a conventional music video and screendance. Its editing treats the dancer's body almost like another rhythmic instrument, matching the track's layered construction and gradual stripping away of sounds.
