Live Review: Zhu 'Paradise Awaits' (Official Video)

18 October 2014 | 12:00 am | Lauren Payne

Zhu has released an animated very adventurous video for his track 'Paradise Awaits'.

If you went to Listen Out as it toured the country, then you may have spotted ZHU. The producer performed in Australia for the first time at the festival and since then has caught further attention from not only homegrown music lovers, but also other Aussie musicians.

RUFUS have had a crack at remixing 'Paradise Awaits', as has AKUNO, but now ZHU has taken back his suave single and released it's official music video.

The track itself is something that most definitely leaves room for exciting visual accompaniment. The vibrant synths and soft vocals make 'Paradise Awaits' feel like a very cool summer anthem for the warmer nights out on the town. The lyrics are quite sensual, but they add to the tracks darker elements and really make you wonder what kind of video could possibly accompany a track such as this. Luckily you don't need to wonder anymore.

Vibrance is on display in the video through the use of bright watercolours dancing around each other, creating strong images that express the sexuality in the song. Each image suits a different lyric and as the watercolours blend together and move constantly, you see the story in 'Paradise Awaits' develop and become entranced by the colours as they warp themselves into beautiful shapes.

'Paradise Awaits' is featured on ZHU's 'The Nightday' EP and is available to purchase right now.
