Featuring Uffie on vocals.
Marea Stamper, best known as The Blessed Madonna, is back on the dancefloors with a new official music video for her latest single, ‘Serotonin Moonbeams’. This is Stamper’s first solo release since 2017’s ‘He Is The Voice I Hear’, and features the contribution from vocalist Uffie.
To celebrate the release of ‘Serotonin Moonbeams’, The Blessed Madonna linked up with director Loose to throw a private party at ‘The Bunker’, as they armed clubbers with body cams and gave them free will to do “absolutely anything they wanted”. The end result is a frantic video that depicts the “beautiful chaos of club culture in all its sweaty, sleazy, glitter-filled glory”.
“This is probably a bad way to go about promoting a record about raves, but I loathe party videos. I don’t think there’s anything more insulting to everything that’s good and true and beautiful about dance music than canned dj euphoria moments, choreographed—some jerk off spray tanned guy who pretended to make a record, who’s pretending to dj, hands-in-the-air rammed down the throats of the viewer. I didn’t even want to be in the video. I just wanted the ideas in the song to unfold naturally at a real, blood, sweat, and tears-on-the-floor party. So that’s what we did. We strapped body cams on people, who then proceeded to get absolutely pissed out of their minds. Uffie showed up with Vaseline and glitter smeared all over her chest and we got weird in a hole-in-the-wall club till morning. I swept up when we were done. What you see in the video is a more polite version of what happened. To be honest, very few people probably precisely realized they were a part of a music video. They just knew they were feeling something they had missed. It can be like that. We don’t have to settle for less. And I’m still picking Uffie’s glitter out of my hair. Also, it is full of easter eggs and love letters for those who know. Happy hunting!” says Marea about the new video.
