Swindon-based musician, producer, and DJ Theo Altieri - aka Chaney - has enlisted one of pop's most iconic mascots - Happy Mondays' 'Bez' - to star in his latest music video 'My House'.

Released on his most recent EP #SAVESWINDON, the 'My House' video features Chaney as a humbly living resident, and Bez as a disgruntled neighbor, in a suburban nightmare based in Rodboune. 

Speaking of the song, Chaney said "“My House’ is a song that lyrically really lends itself to obvious visuals, and the video is based around a heightened/exaggerated version of myself being a homeowner.

"Freaking your neighbours out is one thing, but when your neighbour is Bez, it leaves you unsure - he might come knocking to demand you to turn the music down, or turn up with a bottle of brandy asking to join the party.

"’My House’ is a combination of experiences visiting your friend's new homes, houses, university halls, and also the memories of that slightly psychotic neighbour that lives on your cul-de-sac  (the one that never says 'good morning'), maybe that's me when I live in my dream house”.

According to Chaney, his music is created with the intention that everyday people can relate to it. He said: “I think there are people out there who need speaking for. Without being too rock n roll about it, I think people need someone genuine to come through.”

Chaney's music video for 'My House' will go live Wednesday 17 October.
