Smoke Screen – Inspiration Interlude (Official Music Video)

We decided to call this one ‘Inspiration Interlude’ because each of our verses are packed with references of a specific artist that we’re both inspired by. Toro y Moi in the Mooke Da God verse, and Khruangbin in the Broken Keys verse.

The video was filmed 100% on location in the neighborhood in South Euclid we grew up in (The Yard, which was coined by Rio The Mechanic and A/V) and features the houses we grew up in and the park that was our home away from home.

‘From The Yard’ is out one week from today, Friday 3/24.
