Hanging Valleys - Endless Wave (Official Video)
 

I've wanted to collaborate with Hanging Valleys for a long time now, so when I had the opportunity to travel to northern Norway, I knew that it would be the perfect opportunity to make it finally happen.

Unstad is a small coastal community home to approximately 15 people, yet it is slowly becoming a mecca for surfers as they come to brave the arctic waves. Nestled in a giant valley, Unstad feels like another world. You feel so isolated and alone, yet you are surrounded by some of the most incredible scenery you will ever see, with an endless view out across the water. The weather may be unpredictable, but when the swell is good the surfing is a sight to behold. 

The serenity of the town and surroundings is such a juxtaposition to the intensity of watching the surfers brave 10 foot waves, wipe out and disappear into the whitewash. Its nature at its most beautiful and scary all at once and seemed like the perfect setting to compliment the sound of 'Endless Wave'.

After the excitement and adventure that came with working on 'Endless Wave', it was only a matter of time before I got to work again for another Hanging Valleys collaboration. This time
