Rich Aucoin has shared “The Other”, the second single/video lifted from his third full-length album Release, slated to drop on May 17 via Haven Sounds.

Rich Aucoin on the video for “The Other”

“‘The Other’ video takes place on an alien planet where a tyrant rules a dystopian society divided into quadrants based on the various colours of the aliens’ masks. There is a strict no physical inter-coloured contact rule on this planet such that even the soldiers on this planet only touch others with long metal sticks. The Blue and Red heroes / heroines of the story live in their segregation watching their own versions of the news until they join forces in a rainbow revolution against the tyrant and the ruling class. Inspired by George Lucas’ THX, Ridley Scott / Denis Villeneuve’s Blade Runner, and Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut, the video reveals the album cover image of the upcoming release with my printed skull.”
