DJ Laurinda XShows: New Album – When Love Fades
A Brand Art Emotion Remix Edition | August–September 2025 | Nexth iTV
This August and September, Princess Laurinda iArt Gallery is not simply a backdrop—it is the beating heart of When Love Fades. Every wall, every corridor, every painted reflection transforms DJ Laurinda’s music into a world you can enter, a place where love stories live, fracture, and linger in memory.
If These Walls staged heartbreak in shadows and silence, then London Boy brings us into a different kind of intimacy—the fleeting magic of connection, of belonging to a city and a person at once, only to feel it slip away. The gallery paints not only the romance but the ache that follows when “love fades.”
The Visual Language of “London Boy”
[Verse 1]
“I said I love the west coast sun, warm skin and cinnamon / But your voice in the fog, babe, that’s where it all began…”
The gallery renders this contrast in two canvases hung side by side: one glowing with the golden haze of California light, the other washed in London fog, where a faint silhouette in a leather jacket waits on Oxford Street. The brushstrokes blur at the edges, as if memory itself is softening into longing.
When Laurinda sings—
“You were leather jacket, too-cool stare / Oxford Street wind in your messy hair…”
—the gallery responds with motion: paint that seems to ripple like wind through a lover’s hair, laughter suspended in an unfinished sketch. It is the spark of a night that never leaves.
[Pre-Chorus]
“And now I sip tea like I always did / But it hits different in your flat in Brixton…”
The gallery recreates a Brixton flat—teacups left steaming on a small wooden table, rain tracing the windowpanes. Soft pale light falls across the room, yet shadows linger, reminding us that joy here is temporary, borrowed. The everyday becomes extraordinary when filtered through love’s lens.
[Chorus]
“I got a thing for a London boy / Soft-spoken thrill in a basement noise…”
Here, Princess Laurinda iArt Gallery bursts alive with neon brushstrokes and underground textures. Brick walls vibrate with painted echoes of bass, Soho streets glow with rain-slick reflections, and mirrors catch the moment of a kiss under the lamplight. Each canvas is both wild with color and blurred with watermarks, as if already dissolving into memory.
[Verse 2]
“I knew heartbreak in L.A., but you undid me halfway down the M1…”
The gallery stages this lyric as a moving corridor—road lines stretching into the distance, headlights dissolving into streaks of light. One portrait depicts secrets whispered in the backseat of a London taxi, faces half-hidden in shadow. Another shows the glow of Tower Bridge at night, where intimacy burns brighter than city lights.
“No bright lights, just streetlamp gold…”
The gallery dims the city, replacing glamour with tenderness: a single streetlamp, two figures painted in soft gold, one hand gently tangled in the other’s hair.
[Pre-Chorus]
“Now I crave cold streets and your East End smile…”
On the walls, portraits shift—first vivid, then fading. One smiles in full color, the next sepia, the last almost erased. Side by side, they speak of how desire becomes memory, how warmth can cool.
[Bridge]
“Show me Hackney, I’ll show you how I dream / In a thrift-store coat, I felt like a queen…”
The gallery builds a dreamscape: a thrifted coat draped across a mannequin, lit like royal robes. Graffiti walls in Hackney pulse with painted dreams, yet the canvas itself cracks faintly, a reminder of impermanence.
“Forget Bond Street, babe, you’re the luxury / Your arms are all I need…”
The gallery strips away excess, presenting only two figures drawn in bold charcoal—arms entwined, surrounded by nothing but blank space. Love as the only luxury.
[Final Chorus & Outro]
“I got a thing for a London boy / Midnight trains and the softest noise…”
The gallery projects the final images across vast walls: empty train platforms lit in silver, lovers’ silhouettes fading into the fog. A door closes slowly, leaving only the echo of footsteps.
“But it fades like fog / Boy, I fancy you…”
The last frame is painted mist dissolving into blank canvas, the color draining until only white remains. The romance vanishes, but the longing lingers.
