New Release: Benny Benassi "Let This Last Forever" Directed by Bryan Schlam


If you aren't familiar with the world of synchronized swimming, the Aqualillies are who you call if you need awesome synchronized swimming in something - from videos to live events. Remember the Nicki Minaj pool scene in the Justin Bieber "Beauty And A Beat" video? That was the Aqualillies synchronized swimming behind them. 

They are usually a part of a production, but in the video for "Let This Last Forever" by Benny Benassi feat. Gary Go, director Bryan Schlam makes them the center of attention, focusing the entire video on some of the Aqualillies performing in a pretty amazing looking house overlooking LA. Synchronized swimming is one of those sports (like figure skating) where you're expected to look beautiful while doing something extremely athletic, and Schlam plays that up in the video with plenty of strategically placed shots and lingering slow motion. There are two versions - a "clean version" and the full cut, which features more explicit nude shots of the Aqualillies underwater - I wonder which one will be more popular.

If this came out in February I think we'd all be pretty angry at this video, but since it's June, this is the perfect video to start your summer out with.

The music video for "Let This Last Forever" by Benny Benassi feat. Gary Go was produced by Ian Blair and John Curtis for Doomsday Entertainment. The track is available now as a single.
