Video Premiere: Changelings – Moondance Venus

We’re excited to today bring you the premiere of the new video from Changelings.

In case you aren’t up to speed with Changelings, here’s the scoop. Changelings is the musical solo project of 25-year-old Melbourne musician, Jay Penaflor, and Moondance Venus is the lead single from his new sophomore album, From My Raygun With Love.

The release is a follow-up to Penaflor’s debut album, Poppyfields, self-released in December 2016 and recorded at SAE Institute Melbourne with the help of close friends. The debut album introduced listeners to Changelings’ dreamy, melodic pop sound through its sporadic employment of chimey guitars, lush synth soundscapes and rich reverb effects.

From My Raygun With Love signals a swift departure from Poppyfields’ initial dream-pop aesthetic. Almost immediately after the release of the first album, Penaflor sought to record a follow-up release with the intention
of expanding into other musical avenues. Whilst From My Raygun With Love still maintains Changelings’ pop
sensibilities first heard on Poppyfields, it also suggests a more intricate and sinuous side to Penaflor’s songwriting. Moondance Venus is a good example of what to expect. Check out the video, below.
