Maze is the first short film from Philip Clemo’s Through the Wave of Blue album project. It portrays Clemo as the protagonist, navigating an overwhelming maze of possibilities in a world of confusion and turmoil that threatens to tear him apart. This film was directed by Philip Clemo and shot by Philip Clemo & Colin Gray. Music composed by Philip Clemo. The visuals in this film were crafted using layers of organic, in-camera filming techniques rather than digital special effects.

The album itself reflects a deeply personal journey, exploring a father’s response to profound adversity as his youngest daughter battles a serious illness. Through the Wave of Blue captures the raw intensity of fear and confusion, ultimately resolving in the light of joy and recovery. It offers an immersive, visceral, and emotional experience, inviting listeners to traverse its rich emotional landscapes. The result is a collection of intricate soundscapes that seamlessly blend minimalism, electronica, experimental rock, Krautrock, and jazz fusion, offering listeners a transformative and deeply resonant experience.
