About Gary V's Big Blue
Prism Tats aka Garett van der Spek shares the new single “Big Blue”, the latest in a series of nuanced tracks van der Spek has released, including “Stay True” and “Never Been A Heartbreaker”. Created by photographer Dan Monick in collaboration with his most recent photography collection “Goodbye to Romance”, the video for "Big Blue" documents neon night scenes in Los Angeles.
“This is the fourth time that I've collaborated with Dan Monick and probably my favorite so far,” said van der Spek. “I've become such a fan of his photography since we started working together 3 years ago and felt like “Big Blue” would be a great backdrop for the abandoned strip malls and desolate donut shops of LA that Dan is drawn to. We aimed to shoot as many rolls of film as possible over the course of two nights. Attracted by the florescent and neon lights of donut shops, psychics, porn and pawn shops, we drove all night and collected over a thousand film stills on five different cameras and then edited them together into a video. This song is about being lonely and feeling blue.”
