He stayed in Croatia for two weeks, and in that time they produced music videos for two of his original songs and filmed two cover songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"max-width:600px\">Koolman is an artist whose music demands visuals that pulse with the same strength as his performance. In the four videos Restovi\u0107 directed for him, the emphasis was on dynamics, contrast and stage charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"max-width:600px\">The shoots were often rhythmically demanding but creatively exhilarating, as Koolman brings a strong personality and expressive power that can easily take over the frame. The result is a series of videos that still radiate the energy of live performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Official music video Michelangelo Koolman -The weight is off my shoulders\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8HvrjVqgDvo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe> \n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Official music video Michelangelo Koolman - What&#039;s is going on\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TGnR4JV6GEs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe> \n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michelangelo Koolman &amp; Katja Restovi\u0107: Four music videos born from one encounter and two strong energies Their collaboration is defined by energy, rhythm and visually driven movement.
