music video
​THE RELEASE OF THE MUSIC VIDEO FOR "SING ME TO SLEEP" WAS PUBLISHED ON WALKER'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL ON 2 JUNE 2016. AN ACCOMPANYING MUSIC VIDEO FOR THE SINGLE WAS SHOT IN HONG KONG. IN THE VIDEO YORDAN KOSTOV AKA WALKER #22 (THAT PREVIOUSLY APPEARED IN THE MUSIC VIDEO OF "FADED") AS WELL AS TWO ANOTHER WALKERS (A MAN AND A WOMAN), WALKS AND RUNS IN THE CITY OF HONG KONG IN ORDER TO COMPLETE HIS MISSION HE WAS SENT THERE WITH.
IN THE VIDEO, WALKER #22 NAVIGATES THE BUSTLING STREETS AND HIDDEN ALLEYWAYS OF HONG KONG, ON A MISSION TO LOCATE THE OTHER TWO WALKERS. THEY MUST USE CLUES, CIPHERS, AND NOTES IN CHINESE TO ACTIVATE A DEVICE TOGETHER. THIS DEVICE, AS FORETOLD BY ONE OF THE PROPHECY DISKS, TURNS OUT TO BE A SPECIALIZED WALKER DRONE. EACH WALKER BRINGS A CRUCIAL PART OF THE DEVICE.
DURING HIS SEARCH, WALKER #22 WANDERS THROUGH THE CITY'S BACK ALLEYS, OCCASIONALLY LOOKING BACK AND RUNNING AWAY, SEEMINGLY AFRAID OF BEING CHASED. THROUGHOUT THE VIDEO, THE CAMERA FILTER TRANSITIONS FROM NORMAL TO THERMAL SENSOR, WITH SOME BUILDINGS AND PEDESTRIANS OCCASIONALLY GLITCHING AS IF VIEWED FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF A SURVEILLANCE DEVICE.
AT THE END, THE THREE CHARACTERS MEET INSIDE A WAREHOUSE IN AN INDUSTRIAL BUILDING, WHERE THEY ASSEMBLE THE DEVICE TOGETHER. IT PROJECTS GLOWING BLUE LINES OF A NETWORK THROUGHOUT THE CITY OF HONG KONG AS THE VIDEO GLITCHES AND ENDS.

THUS, THE "SING ME TO SLEEP" MUSIC VIDEO SERVED AS A MAGNIFICENT TEASER FOR THE WEBSITE RELEASE. CONTRARY TO EARLIER INTERPRETATIONS, IT DID NOT DEPICT THE ACTIVATION OF A DRONE, BUT RATHER MARKED THE BEGINNING OF SOMETHING MUCH MORE SIGNIFICANT.
