Today we watch The Present‘s “Love With U” video which premiered this week via Vice’s Creators Project. Directed by Jonathan Turner, the animated black and white visuals feature a maze of slickly rendered 3-D interiors with, seemingly, no exit. The New York-based artist worked for the architects Diller + Scofidio, so it’s no accident that these rooms, corridors, atriums, etc. offer jaw dropping views filled with baroque and surreal touches. Echoing The Present’s skittering drum rolls and syncopated rhythms, the video’s continually changing viewpoint and dizzying movements thru space make for a wild ride.
The Present is producer Rusty Santos and singer Mina Ohashi. You can find “Love With U” on the duo’s new 12″ Break the Dawn out now on Styles Upon Styles.
