Director’s Statement:

Alex Mastoon

With all of my work, I want to challenge people to leave their comfort zone and listen with their eyes. I’m not too keen on videos which literally convey everything the song is trying to say – that’s lame, and I find it incredibly boring. Music and visuals have a special balance in that they need to elevate each other. This specific video was meant to be super playful and energetic, and I just became mesmerized with the awkwardness of rave culture, juxtaposed with the awkwardness of early jazz in front of a completely white audience. It’s ironic that the latter provides the foundation for the former… I also love drum and bass, so this project was a no brainier for me to take on. There is definitely a personal story to this video, but I want everyone who views it to create their own.
