Tommy Holohan and Megra: Show Me the Sky
Will Wightman directs a frenetic odyssey of a man possessed for Tommy Holohan and Megra’s latest track ‘Show Me The Sky’. Partly inspired by a very real childhood phobia and Will’s own OCD, the video follows a man who’s beginning to lose it - a fly swoops inside his ear - and he becomes a man possessed. The use of a practical build and old school VFX, take us literally headfirst inside the character’s transformation. Like a nightmarish Ratatouille, George Osman’s Fly controls Jared like a puppet. The camera shakes as he’s thrown around, mirroring his descent into madness. Paired with sharp cuts and Jack Hamilton’s hand-held photography, the video feels like it rattling. Slasher inspired prosthetics give a gross, gory glow to the violence. Jared does whatever he can to try and regain control; tooth picks, scissors and toxic chemicals. Each mutilation feels both comical and disturbing and makes Holohan’s techno feel even more unrelenting. As an artist, Tommy has been labelled one of the spearheads of rave revival over the past few years. From leapfrogging his way to the top of the Irish pecking order, he has uprooted dance floors in Griessmuehle, Corsica Studios, District 8 and delivered one of the most memorable Boiler Room sets the online platform has seen. The track itself, written by Dublin native Tommy and electronic artist Megra, feels truly-sky piercing. Led by a devastating blend of reese bass, euphoric vocals and rave stabs, it's the first single off Tommy’s debut EP ‘Temple Theatre’, and the perfect score for Will’s twisted story.
