‘higher’ is the latest single from Sydney-based singer, songwriter and producer upsidedownhead, who teams up with his friend and frequent Flight Facilities collaborator Ric Rufio on the track. The official video arrives today and see the pair performing under impressive blue projections that morph into blue retro-futuristic special effects.

“We’d been wanting to do something that would be reflective of the live show for sometime. In my eyes higher has some anthemic qualities and we wanted to visually create something immersive that captures the true essence of a great VJ-DJ collaboration.

The incredible director Jamin Tasker has an amazing eye for shapes and colours and how they mould with the music. He and I worked closely on building a visual world that when paired with a high end projector and a blank canvas would create further depth to the sonics presented in higher. Visuals by Catmac.

‘higher’ is an ode to that little smile when the good guy wins. It’s an ode to that feeling that you could take on the world when you walk out of the movies riding that high. It’s an anthem that was written with the purpose to create euphoria in all that listen to it…”
