Music Video Premiere: 'Bullet’ - Ella Minehan & Altitude
Director: Sam Emerson of Offline Collective
Starring: Ella Minehan & Aaron Smith
Filmed at: Governors Bay, Cashmere Hills and Pink Lady Rooftop Bar in Ōtautahi
Following up their 2023 collaboration ‘Drowning,’ Ella Minehan and Altitude are back with ‘Bullet’ - a smooth blend of liquid drum and bass with a punchy dancefloor vibe. The track has a powerful, driving rhythm balanced by melodic layers; a perfect mix of depth and energy. ‘Bullet’ is a metaphor for that moment in a relationship where you have to sacrifice your heart for the sake of your head. It details the strength that comes in acknowledging when something is no longer serving you; crooning to the other that by parting ways, you are both “dodging a bullet”.
