There's something so unique and enchanting about Ishani's single 'Powertripp'. Between the haunting Trip-Hop beats, the mellifluous Indie-Pop melodies and the striking word craft, this song stands out as the kind of innovative music that we can only hope for as music obsessives. It's a careful composition that delicately handles the song's compelling storyline about a toxic couple who can't seem to get on the same page at best and blow up into huge arguments at worst. This is taken into the music video in which Ishani and actor David Donner perform as the convincing battling couple. When Ishani is by herself in the visuals, the artist provides a powerful avant-garde performance using interpretative dance styles and masked strangers to signify her emotional inner turmoil. Like the song, it's such a creative way to present a familiar story of toxic love and relationships. Props go to director and executive producer Yolanda Barker, video DOP and executive producer Beatriz Delgado Mena, the all women base crew.
“This is a song about self-love and how you can overcome being in a toxic relationship where negative patterns repeat. You have to come to a point where you let go of the rope of that power struggle and choose yourself over the endless loops. Take off your mask and veil and walk away.” - Ishani
