Parisian trio Keep Dancing Inc share the music video for 'Long Enough', the third single from their forthcoming LP ‘Embrace’ which is out on October 8.
The electronic pop of 'Long Enough' invokes a mix of fragility and toughness, similar in style to golden-era New Order, and shows a fresh and new facet of Keep Dancing Inc’s sound.
"We were keen on releasing it on the album, and as a single, because it moved a lot of our friends, even though we didn’t consider spotlighting it initially," they say. "When writing this song, we were inspired by our old indie/rock crushes The Drums, the Strokes and the Smiths. On top of that, we added string machines that reminded us of New Order and The Chameleons.
"The final words of the chorus, 'This is the only way for me, to become what I should be' sum up the general idea behind the song: the longing for self-accomplishment, and the hindrances and fears that stand in the way. Specifically, parental pressure, credentialism, and the angst young people face on the threshold of adulthood.“
