Music collaboration LOVECOLOR is debuting their first single with their music video for “Dangerous.”
Launching in November 2022, LOVECOLOR is made up of singer-songwriter and producer Vanessa Silberman and musician/actor Ryan Carnes. The pair are exploring themes of love and relationships against the backdrop of “sultry alt pop, dark synth, dance and rock sounds.”
Mixed by Andrew Dawson (Jay Z, Phantogrram, Sleigh Bells, Linkin Park), “Dangerous” is a powerful electro-pop, rock-inspired song that emphasizes the dark nature of attraction and the scary part of being vulnerable. Set at an underground rave-like concert, the video illustrates the cat-and-mouse chase that attraction and crushes lead a person into.
“Dangerous is about a few things — one being attraction and being so completely drawn to someone that it’s almost dangerous, in a way,” said Silberman. “On the other hand, its message is really about exposing your entire self and being completely fearless and vulnerable, by embracing every aspect of who you are. It’s about being free and open with your sensuality — not suppressing any aspect of yourself, your desire or your sexuality. Growing up I think parts of me felt unable to be open and almost sexually suppressed, so I want to empower people (especially women), to fully embrace their whole true selves. I think that’s the most powerful and dangerous thing you can do.”
“To me, to be “Dangerous”, speaks to the idea of being fully awake, aware, alive and sharp in a world where parts of society and culture wish us to remain dull and asleep,” Carnes adds.
