Atelo Songs Reveals “not in the mood.” Stop Motion Video
Atelo Songs, aka singer-songwriter Sam Gleason, has unveiled a visually stunning stop-motion music video for the single “not in the mood.”
Atelo Songs, the creative alter-ego of the passionate singer-songwriter Sam Gleason, has unveiled a visually stunning stop-motion music video for the single “not in the mood.” This latest artistic endeavour from Gleason is an imaginative animation video that took nine months to create, showcasing a remarkable blend of creativity and storytelling. Directed and created by Gleason, the video adds depth to the already poignant and introspective track.
The single, released in late 2023, represents the first track from Hidden in the Honey, the forthcoming full-length, set for release on February 28, 2024.
The music video for “not in the mood” is a testament to Gleason’s dedication to his craft, reflecting the same introspection and resilience that the song conveys. Its unique visual blend perfectly complements the song’s off-kilter, punky-tonk piano and Costello-esque lyrics. The animation tells a compelling story that echoes the song’s themes of self-improvement, the acceptance of one’s imperfections, and the importance of taking a break from the constant pursuit of perfection. This visual representation enhances the song’s emotional impact, creating a more immersive experience for the viewer.
Fueled by a flawless blend of self-deprecating bitterness, unapologetically frank perspectives, and the raw wisdom that can only be gained by surviving and growing despite the trauma, “not in the mood” spotlights the tenacity, perceptiveness, sensitivity, and awareness that Sam Gleason possesses and used to propel his diaristic songwriting under the moniker Atelo Songs.
