Boy Blu’s New Single “Visions” Brings Queer Magic to Fantasy Pop

Fantasy pop star Boy Blu is back with a bang! The vibrant artist released his latest single and music video, “Visions,” via Sad Magic Records. This track is a magical blend of bold electro beats and Dune-inspired sounds, perfectly marrying fantasy with modern queer pop.

Enter the World of “Visions”

Produced by Gregory Dillon, “Visions” features anthemic melodies and rave music vibes. It’s a track that sci-fi dance enthusiasts won’t want to miss. The lyrics, deeply personal and poignant, tell a story of abandonment and the haunting pain of seeing a loved one everywhere. Blu explains, “There’s something poetic about dancing while singing the saddest words. ‘Visions’ embodies this blend perfectly: it makes me want to cry and dance at the same time.”

A Visual Feast

The music video for “Visions” is an immersive journey into Boy Blu’s sci-fi-inspired imagination. Directed by Logan Powaski and choreographed by Jesse Fields, the video features brutalist aesthetics and futuristic, desert-armored clothing with a hint of queer House influence. Blu’s powerful dance performance and the storyline of grappling with past visions make for a compelling watch.

Boy Blu shares, “In Dune: Part Two, the exploration of the Harkonnen world captivated me and the video’s director. We were particularly inspired by the scenes shot in infrared on the Harkonnen planet. For the music video, we started with a black-and-white aesthetic and gradually introduced blue tones to match the song’s increasing energy. Our goal was to intertwine the chaotic, powerful dance with a realistic narrative of feeling abandoned.”

Earlier Hits and Future Promise

Earlier this summer, Boy Blu released “2 Deadly,” a razor-sharp anthem in collaboration with electro pop artist and producer Gregory Dillon. This track is a fusion of 2010 underground tech house and modern EDM, perfect for fans of high-energy pop. The stylish and innovative music video, directed by Zack Stauffer, features Blu and Dillon as cyber-world sirens facing off against formidable foes.
