Murkage Dave has given the visual treatment to his powerful single, “Please Don’t Move To London It’s A Trap”.
Produced by Jonathan Walter, this track is a minimalistic one that Murkage Dave uses to describe what he sees in his hometown of London; particularly the changes in recent years. The Marco Grey-directed visuals explore the highs and lows of city life and follow Dave as he experiences London’s nightlife but also it’s hustle and bustle.
Speaking on “Please Don’t Move To London It’s A Trap”, Dave said: “I find that people either paint London as some kind of warzone, like there’s missiles going off every minute, or they want to airbrush out all the crud on some Hugh Grant s**t like everyone is just sitting around drinking organic wine in Michelin star restaurants.
“I’d rather just say it as it is, it may not be as pretty a picture or maybe it doesn’t fit the stereotype that some might like to consume but I feel like I’ve gotten closer to the truth, which is all I know how to do.”
