Quadra 163 – Fabrice Lig – Spin Coaster

Official Music Video | Brutalist Sci-Fi Environments & Motion Design

Overview

Quadra 163 is a music video created for electronic music artist Fabrice Lig, designed to visually accompany his track Spin Coaster. The piece explores a surreal, post-human narrative set within an abandoned space base—a lone survivor travels to an empty colony in space, they walk inside a vast, brutalist structure, wandering through empty architectural echoes until encountering a single living symbol: a solitary tree.

Visual Style & Concept

This video draws from themes of isolation, memory, and renewal. The environment—an immense brutalist warehouse-meets-space station—evokes feelings of past technological collapse and quiet resilience. Cinematic camera movement and slow-building tension guide the viewer through stark, symmetrical corridors toward a moment of emotional release.

The final encounter with the lone tree acts as a counterpoint to the mechanical world—suggesting survival, rebirth, or even hallucination. The visuals reflect the tension and energy of Spin Coaster through minimal colour, fog, and rhythmic animation.

Process Highlights

  • Designed and animated a sci-fi-inspired brutalist environment using Cinema 4D.

  • Synchronized camera and object movement with Fabrice Lig’s electronic track.

  • Created a visual narrative using light, fog, and architectural repetition.

  • Used After Effects for post-processing, color grading, and atmospheric enhancement.
