DON DIABLO

“KILL ME BETTER”

Quote Don Diablo: Kill me better reflects the ongoing battle with my inner demons like so many of us are struggling with right now. Often we only show the best things in life on socials and in music videos but there is another side as well, why hide this from the outside world? All the scenes in this video visually reflect what it feels like to feel lost, broken, anxious. I wanted this music video to serve as a reminder that health isn’t just physical it’s also mental and if you are out there struggling right now: you are not alone. Big up & much love to Imanbek and Trevor Daniel for joining me on this journey. Produced by Wolfstreet DoP Roderik Patijn VFX Ambassadors Amsterdam

Don Diablo “Kill Me Better” Official Music Video

I had the pleasure to direct the latest music video for the #6 DJ in the world, Don Diablo.
Even though the song is upbeat and feels optimistic, the message of the song “Kill Me Better” addresses issues of mental health that many people are struggling with right now.

This video is exceptional within Don's range of previous video’s and I therefor couldn’t be more proud to have worked on this one, along with an amazing crew.
