Holly Herndon Roams An Empty Planet In The Video For “Morning Sun”

Watch Herndon try her hand at space exploration.

June 02, 2015

After releasing Platform last month, her first full-length since 2012, Holly Herndon returned today with a video for “Morning Sun.” The clip, co-directed by John Merizalde and Mat Dryhurst, follows a space-suit clad Herndon as she wanders the empty surface of a mountainous desert planet. The tinny beat gurgles harmlessly around cascades of differently-pitched vocals, but the visual embodiment of that chorale is more sinister: a thick, menacing sandstorm.
