We’re not 100% sure of the status of this video for Milwaukee Banks' Faded we stumbled across on vimeo, i.e. is it an official vid? Is it an unofficial vid?? BUT we ARE 100% sure of the fact that it IS officially dope.
Directed by Jonathon Lim who also took care of the visuals for the group's latest single Reincarnated it depicts a gritty (US) cityscape populated by a bucket hat wearing car crash victim(s) sporting some A++ choreography. There’s something haunting about the pairing of visual and sound which hints at the possibility of something mortal. Is the man who dances before us actually dead by car crash? Is this the slow dance into the otherside? There are unanswered questions but they’re asked beautifully.
Faded is our fave cut from the Melbourne duo’s moody as f**k debut full length Deep Into The Night which is out now where all top notch oz hip hop/not oz hip hop is sold | streamed.
The guys are also hitting the road throughout April/May/June, for all the info you’ll need check their website and peep the flyer below.
