Alt-rockers Night Argent have a new music video out for a “deconstructed” version of their track “Nothing More Beautiful”. The stripped-down version of the song featured in the clip adds cello and a vocal beatbox accents “giving the original arena rock song a saucy, seductive feel”. Frontman Chase Manhattan comments on how the new rendition came about:
“A couple months ago our manager asked us if we’d be willing to put together an acoustic version of our first single ‘Nothing More Beautiful’ as a bonus track for our EP. We loved the idea, but didn’t want to play the exact same arrangement as the original just on acoustic instruments. We wanted to take the sound we created and deconstruct it, rebuild it with a new arrangement, and a completely new vibe. ‘Nothing More Beautiful’ has always had a big sound, so we decided to challenge ourselves and bring out a more chill and raw ambience to the track, while maintaining the emotional impact of the original.”
The song appears on the band’s forthcoming self-titled EP, which arrives April 22nd. Pre-orders for the effort are now up at NightArgent.com, Amazon, and iTunes.
