FADER PREMIERE:

This past February, musician Sun Araw released his seventh LP, B E L O M A N C I E, via his own Drag City imprint, Sun Ark. We debuted the “formalist digital film experiment” he made for album track "Huff" back then, but here's a clip for the aleatoric-sounding, flute-laden "Solo Wallet Shuffle," set to footage that his filmmaker buddy Matthew Lessner captured of a man doing yoga near a taco bell in Los Angeles. "I liked the pairing because that's a song that I suspect might be about building demonstrations for yourself out of Ideas and "watching," and this man seems to be doing something similar," says Stallones, who edited the video himself. "So I started highlighting and subtracting and repeating certain elements, which brings out other Ideas and completes the Demonstration."
