RÉN unveils video for debut single, ‘Time’

NYC newcomer’s first work mixes funk and serene pop.

RÉN unveils video for debut single, ‘Time’

Last month, New York’s RÉN arrived on the scene with ‘Time’, a genre-hopping debut track produced by go-to deskman Luca Beccellati, from Yellerkin. Combining funk and don’t-give-a-fuck pop motifs, it landed like this year’s more underground answer to ‘Get Lucky’, riding high on Nile Rodgers’ coattails while forging its own path.

A new video has landed for the track, and it sees the NYC newcomer taking her debut to the streets.

Stop-motion shots see her taking on market stalls, wall murals and local landmarks in a blissful, summertime cruise. It only further affirms that Renée Orshan’s an artist that shuns convention by default - long may that continue.

Patrick Ryan Morris directs the clip, premiering on DIY below.
