Franky Wedge is known for Eric Prydz: Call on Me (2004), Alex Gaudino feat. Crystal Waters: Destination Calabria (2007) and Ministry of Sound: Pump It Up! – Aeroburn (2009). This is a story that includes a largely forgotten 1980s singer0songwriter, bare bottoms, and a sweating, salivating former prime minister. It’s a story of regret, longing, and the short-lived effects of sudden fame.
Along the way, we’ll meet movie stars and aerobics instructors. We’ll learn about ourselves and the lives of others. This is the story of the video for “Call on Me” by Eric Prydz. Every story has a beginning. Ours takes place in a flat in London. Huse Monfaradi, a director at the start of his career, was put forward for a music video job by a friend working at Ministry of Sound, the label that released Prydz’s chart-busting filter-house smash hit.
“The commissioner from MoS was a friend of mine,” Huse tells me over the phone, “and he said, ‘Look, this is a good opportunity, it’s going to be a big track, you should do it.’ I wrote a throwaway idea, about sexual aerobics. It was that simple.”
