Mai Pen Rai is a track from Makam’s forthcoming album, Than Sadet, which means "Royal River" in Thai (Mai Pen Rai means "everything will be okay").
Directors Mr. Boonstra and Bas van de Poel wanted to created a river of dancing figures, and that's how choreographer Matthew Pawlicki-Sinclair from House of Makers and his dancers got involved. Matthew's choreography—in combination with light photography—creates a river of movement.
The overall message of the music video, commissioned by the Dekmantel music festival, is, “Just flow along with the river and everything will be okay.”
