Baïki – Les Boites

What if everything; your job, hopes, fears, loves, joys, apprehensions, came alive as boxes (“boites” in French). Now, what if those boxes were anthropomorphic and took a kind of light-hearted revenge on their creator?

This is the story of the new music video from Baïki, a songwriter from Belgium. On “Les Boîtes,” he uses a punk rock enthusiasm in the same style as someone like The Dropkick Murphys, while a DIY music video unfolds. The boxes are all different colors, and are being controlled by a bearded puppet master who instructs them to dance in unison. But soon, the boxes, no longer wanting to be shackled, choose free will and turn on their master. A great music video with a vague message.
