Featured in the ‘Double Life’ music video are competitive ballroom dancers Nikolas Constantine and Kateryna Osminina, the latter a refugee from war torn Ukrain.
The viewer is instantly drawn into the ‘Double Live’ video, captivated from beginning to end by Imgonefishings triumphant lyrics, the steaming jazz saxophone, the sultry ballroom dance moves all captured in a multicolored dream in sharp dark future psychedelic imagery that has become a calling card of filmmaker Carlos A. Hurtado.
The young San Diego rapper who is a fan of Hurtado’s films states, “I was really impressed by Carlos’ past works, some featuring bolero dancers, some with dreamy water choreography, and even his animated stuff, they all have this beautiful blend of shadows and colors.” Say’s Imgonefishing, “I told Carlos I wanted it all, everything he’s done in the past, even the stuff he’s planning on doing, the ideas he’s shared with me about his future projects, I told him I wanted it all condense into my music video. That’s a huge request, but he nailed it!”
Hurtado comments on the ease of making the music video. “When I heard the lyrics, they were so relatable, yet boastful, as if they could be stated looking in the mirror as a morning affirmation, or proudly shouted from the stage in front of a packed arena, I just envisioned a faceless Imgonefishing in the shadows so the viewer or listener could place their self in his spotlight.’ Hurtado remarks about Constantine’s and Osminina’s dancing, “when I heard that sax, I instantly envisioned some sexy ballroom dancers bringing the video alive.”
