Music Video of the Month: "Obsolete" by Yoko Gold, Directed by Paul Short.
Paul Short’s latest video takes a bold step into the realm of psychological horror and thriller. In this visually striking video, Short explores the haunting dynamics of toxic relationships, not just between partners, but the often hidden toxicity we experience within ourselves. The eerie atmosphere serves as a gripping visual extension of the song’s emotional themes.
Working alongside Director of Photography Grant Cooper, Short crafted striking and haunting visuals. Cooper’s use of lighting deepens the mood, amplifying the tension and intensity of the story. Each shot feels like a vivid representation of internal conflict, drawing viewers into a world of turmoil and reflection.
Paul Short calls this project his most ambitious to date, successfully blending horror with emotional depth to capture the essence of the song. "Obsolete" is a captivating visual journey, and we’re excited to see where Yoko Gold’s storytelling takes us next with his upcoming album, "Escape From Limbo".
