In August 2021, English musician Elderbrook released the music video for \u201cInner Light<\/a>,\u201d his collaborative single with the electronic duo Bob Moses<\/a>. The visual stars Elise Legros and Jean-Yves Phuong as they dance on a rotating platform, situated inside the Panth\u00e9on in Paris. The scene is excerpted from French dancer and choreographer Yoann Bourgeois<\/a>\u2019 2018 film The Great Ghosts<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cInner Light\u201d may now look familiar to Harry Styles<\/a> fans, as the pop star dances on a rotating platform with Mathilde Lin<\/a> in his new \u201cAs It Was<\/a>\u201d music video. As it turns out, Styles\u2019 new video is choreographed by Yoann Bourgeois.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bourgeois had previously used a rotating stage in his 2014 piece He Who Falls<\/em><\/a>, as Billboard<\/em><\/a> notes. In an interview with NR<\/a>, the artist remarked, \u201cThe relationship with physical forces has an eloquent capacity that can be very big; it has the kind of expression that is universal. This is something I look for through my work, because the physical phenomenon is something that happens across cultures.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elderbrook has shown his appreciation for Harry Styles in the past, covering \u201cWatermelon Sugar<\/a>\u201d in 2020. When reached by Pitchfork, the musician said, \u201cBig fan of Harry and his music. Would be flattered if our video for \u2018Inner Light\u2019 happened to serve as inspiration in any way xx.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
