Majentta – Near Dark (Booking Machine Agency)
As a well-known music video director, Russian creative Majentta debuts as a solo artist with the release of her album Near Dark (Booking Machine Agency). As a music video director, Majentta has directed artists such as Markul, Thomas Mraz, Erika Lundmoen, polnalyubvi, Souloud, and many more. In her debut release Near Dark, Majentta steps aside from directing others, and this time tells her own story through metaphor. “Anyone who wants to see the morning dawn must go through the night,” Majentta says. The album works through themes of abuse and domestic violence, through the metaphor of a vampire story. As a gifted visual person, Near Dark is accompanied by vivid visuals and video sequences
