Music show.
Boris released his music in Japan with label Nuro and is currently working with Germany's Emerald and Doreen Records on his new album 'Solipsist', which is released on October 13th.
Boris explains 'The Solipsist album is about anything outside my own mind which is unsure, to the extent that the external world might not exist outside my mind. So I'm buildi ng my own worlds, my own musical bubbles and universes with tones, melodies and harmonies.
Modern humans live in these kinds of bubbles (social networks, media). They're happy under their own glass domes and their way of solipsism'.
London's The Madley Brothers have produced a powerful video to accompany the single 'Haunted' which tells the story of a guy who's in love with his best mate's girlfriend. The video captures the night where these repressed feelings are freed; they hang heavy in the air, dangerously intoxicating.
