Manchester pop duo Bernard + Edith have premiering their new video for "Heartache" on Best Fit ahead of upcoming debut LP Jem.
It's a video that contrasts with the emotional core of the track, with Bernard + Edith making noises for lost love as the pair get lost in a '60s acid-trip harem, with gossamer veils, lush swirls of orangey pinks, and smoke-ring CGi.
The track is a burbling synth ballad, with clattering percussion and the low ebb of bass underpinning Edith's glossy, billowing vocals.
Jem is out 11 May on Bella Union.
Bernard + Edith are playing London's Oslo tomorrow, 23 April.
Watch "Heartache" below.
