littleuniverses drops new music video

For as long as she can remember, Montréal-based musician littleuniverses has had her eyes set on her musical ambitions. “My entire life, if there was anything I was ever sure of, it is this one fact: I wanted to be an artist. I always felt that there is nothing more beautiful than connecting to a work of art that comes from a place of sincerity,” she shares.

Passionate about the connection formed between art at those who experience it, she aims to use her creative output as a way to provide strength, solace, empathy and joy with her listeners. A true artist in everything she does, she’s constantly writing poetry or making visual art and music to create her own ‘little universes’, spinning deep and immersive experiences that translate through her sound.

In 2019 she gave the world the first taste of these sonic worlds with the release of her debut single “Back to Life” which she’s followed up with a string of stellar singles and two EPs with 2020’s Corners and Wanderlust the next year. Now, with her debut full-length eponymous record set to drop in February 2023, she brings us her latest release and lead single from the upcoming album with “Sword”.

Working with musician and producer Randall Dunn and musician Arjan Miranda, on “Sword” littleuniverses weaves a dark and atmospheric alternative pop sound. Written as a love story that follows the main character who fetishises the digital version of their love interest but continues to yearn for them to return to their true human form, with her new single the artist threads a future dystopian tale via her brooding and melancholic sonic aesthetic.

Paired with the single is a music video directed by Zeke Ramazan Gase which features the actor Tural Manafov playing out the scenes in the song to create a captivating visual accompaniment for littleuniverses’ engrossing new single.
