Jane Machine’s “Bang” is a rambunctious and catchy ode to eros made flesh by its synth-driven track and infectiously playful video. Erica von Trapp, aka Jane Machine, conceived the music after hearing the composition in a dream. “Bang” found its visual soulmate through Nastasia Dusapin, Erica’s friend and collaborator. She visualized a “we film ourselves” concept celebrating sensuality and the preparation for it. A private pre-game for... banging. The camcordered journey explores three women’s rituals as they prepare for debauchery, fraught with a vulnerability that only comes from a lack of outside observation. The video, while playful, divulges a maturity in not only its objects and characters but also in its editing and choice of medium. It’s that good kind of understated. Spontaneous but with intention.
