Xadi & Nix Northwest 'Night Owl' by Stefano Moscone
Promonews - 31st Jan 2025
Inspired by Fincher’s Fight Club, Stefano Moscone's video for Nix Northwest & Xadi is an odyssey into the raw and primal violence of the underground fights. It's very hard-hitting indeed.
With its atmospheric, cinematic approach - there's impressive cinematography from Will Arcinas and grade from Henry Howard - and a strong ensemble cast featuring the artists themselves, Moscone helms a compellingly visceral experience, traversing the magnetic appeal of the Fight Club, to its unavoidable pitfalls.
The adrenaline rush, the brutal exchange of blows, the sensation of pain, all serve as a twisted reminder to Nix Northwest and Xadi that they’re still alive, still feeling something in a world that otherwise feels numb. The fights become their escape, but it is a dangerous illusion.
The pair lose themselves in this cycle, unable to break free from the downward spiral - transforming into night owls.
