Synopsis
MYPET's "Tiger" is a sleek, performance-driven video built around the duo's dark electronic sound. Amy Kuney appears as the central visual presence, while the imagery shifts through stark interiors, shadowy spaces, and stylized close-ups that emphasize the song's animalistic tension. Rather than following a conventional narrative, the video uses repetition, attitude, and controlled movement to create a hypnotic portrait of instinct, restraint, and forward momentum. The result is moody, minimal, and deliberately enigmatic.
