A hotel room. A call for room service. A mysterious assailant, “The Stranger”, and a surreal chase-cum-dance throughout the hotel. Harry Styles returns to centre stage in the pop world with a new sound and a mysterious music video with Dirty Dancing references for Aperture, the lead single from his upcoming album, Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally.

The 5.50 minute video was written and directed by DIVISION director, Aube Perrie, who has previously directed Harry Styles’ videos for Satellite and Music For A Sushi Restaurant. The Stranger is played by dancer and creator, Danny Dolan. The music video was released following the reveal of the upcoming album’s tracklist, and the announcement of the singer’s new tour running from May to December across Amsterdam, London, São Paulo, Mexico City, Melbourne, Sydney and a 30-night residency at Madison Square Garden, New York.
