If you’ve been keeping an eye on the experimental electronic rock scene, you’ve probably heard whispers about Some Distant Memory. As the brainchild of Nors Records, this project has quietly built a reputation for blending diverse genres into something that feels both nostalgic and groundbreaking. Their latest move? A mini trailer for the upcoming “Just A Story” full music video, set to the unreleased track “Flourish Refurbish.”
The trailer, just a few seconds long, symbolizes rebirth, romance, and a quiet kind of self-esteem that feels earned. The visuals are paired with “Flourish Refurbish,” a track that feels like it was pulled from the ether. It’s not flashy or overproduced—it’s raw and cinematic. The choice to use an unreleased track is a bold move, but it works.
What’s fascinating about this teaser is how it ties into the larger narrative of Some Distant Memory. The project, led by Jasper and supported by the enigmatic Divine Baroness Nora Lumwood, has always been about more than just music. It’s a universe, a story that spans dimensions. The “Just A Story” video, originally titled “All Wet,” has been in the works for a while now and has already snagged multiple film festival awards. That’s no small feat for a project still in progress, but it speaks to the level of craftsmanship on display here.
Some Distant Memory is part of the larger NORS universe, which began as a RuneScape clan in 2011 and has since evolved into a multimedia project. Jasper, the creative force behind the music, has been crafting albums and videos for years, with Nora Lumwood serving as both muse and collaborator. Their partnership is the heart of the project, and it shows in the work. There’s a sense of history here, a feeling that every note and every frame is part of a larger story.
“Just A Story” Flourish Refurbish Mini Trailer is a glimpse into a world where music and visuals collide, where storytelling takes center stage, and where every detail matters. The full release of the “Just A Story” music video is still under wraps, but if this teaser is any indication, it’s going to be worth the wait. Some Distant Memory isn’t just keeping the spirit of imaginative music videos alive—they’re reinventing it.
