U.K. drum and bass act piri and tommy release “on & on” music video
U.K. drum and bass act piri & tommy unveiled the music video for their latest single “on & on” on Wednesday.
The visual, which can be seen below, was directed by Dead Horses. “on & on” comes from piri & tommy’s upcoming release froge.mp3, which will arrive on October 21 via Polydor/Geffen Records.
Piri said this about the forthcoming release:
“[froge.mp3] is basically a diary of the first year tommy and I have been making music, and pretty much the first year of us knowing each other at all. Each song (in both lyrics and vibe) captures a different point in time of our journey, and the different experiences and emotions we were going through. We really wanted to avoid guiding or limiting ourselves too much during the creative process: we made whatever we felt like, just for fun, and I can definitely feel that energy of us enjoying being creative and with no pressure when listening back. It’s so cool having a collection of tracks to document parts of our lives in that way, like a little time capsule.”
Tommy also said:
“Every single track was an experiment. This was the first time I’ve been entirely responsible for producing an entire record, it’s been super fun to make, and I’ve learned so much about producing just by doing this. Every track had a different challenge and I’m proud that all of them have individuality, through different genres, instrumentations, writing styles and production techniques. I just want everyone to enjoy this project: we poured our hearts and souls into these songs, roll on project 2!!!”
piri & tommy will be supporting the release with a tour across the U.K. and Europe, which features a performance at Pitchfork Festival Paris. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public here.
