UK producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist SG Lewis unveils the dark and twisted official video for latest single ‘Flames’, featuring 16-year-old Australian breakthrough artist Ruel. The pair performed the track at SG Lewis’ prime time slot at Coachella last month, with SG returning the favour and flying out for a surprise guest appearance at Ruel’s sold out Sydney Opera House show earlier this month.
The video was shot in LA and directed by Jeremy Koren (Troye Sivan, Ruel); with the track’s leading men taking an ill-fated turn. Think Drive meets Wolf Creek…

Speaking on the track, SG says: “I was put onto Ruel’s music about 18 months ago, and watching his growth since then has been amazing. He’s got such soul to his voice for someone of his age, it’s crazy. Flames is the final preview of Dawn before the whole thing drops, and I can’t wait to share the whole thing.”
‘Flames’ follows SG Lewis’ recent Clairo collaboration ‘Throwaway’ and is the third single to be taken from ‘Dawn’, the third and final chapter of his three-part concept album Dusk, Dark, Dawn – out soon via PMR / Caroline Australia.
Dusk, Dark, Dawn chronicles the trajectory of a night out through its different moods and genres and serves as a tribute to club and youth culture. While Dusk (early 2018) blended disco, smooth electro and funk and Dark (late 2018) explored distinctly heavier yet still diverse sounds, Dawn is a sonic embodiment of those euphoric sunrise moments and the feeling of togetherness at the end of a night well spent.
It’s been an amazing year for SG Lewis that has seen the artist sell-out venues across the US, Europe, Asia and Australia – including dates over AUS New Year 2018/19 – with the London local also announcing his biggest headline show to date at O2 Academy, Brixton.
In addition to 2x Clairo collabs, SG has previously worked with Col3trane, Raye, Ray BLK, The Neptunes / N.E.R.D’s Chad Hugo, Gerd Janson, Conducta and more as well as producing Dave’s ‘100M’s’ proving his worth as one of the most respected and prolific musicians from the UK. SG’s ever-growing catalog both as a collaborator and his solo tracks showcases he is a producer capable of working outside of genre and style.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
