4th Project is an Electro Soul band. Their music is an integration of soulful vocals with keyboard, electric guitar, beatboxing and live electronics. Their lyrics of their latest track ‘Taking Me Over’ describe being taken over by a relationship, whilst also being taken back over repetitive patterns of breaking up and getting back together.
Anna and Remco wanted to play out both these elements in the music video and experimented with light and shadow to show this. They were interested in the contrast between empty places and places that felt claustrophobic and the visual metaphor of the bridge; a structure that can simultaneously take you over, and go over you.
