Zebra Katz crafts a visual DJ set in “LOUSY / IN IN IN”
New music after two years.
Zebra Katz returns after his last release, 2017's "Blk & Wht," with an epic, short film titled "LOUSY / IN IN IN." Directed by Daniel Wirtberg, the video is less narrative and more composed of snapshots of life on the men's retreat, Varberg, on the southwest coast of Sweden. The ebb and flow of the action mimics how a DJ set should feel. Wirtberg explained in an email that he used water throughout as "a symbol of connection" and it also explores self-care and the duality between “soft and hard masculinity, between introvert and extrovert."
To mirror the juxtaposition of visuals from Wirtberg, Zebra Katz goes back and forth with moments of vulnerability, mocking a forlorn lover who couldn't stand on his own two, and spitting bars of supernatural confidence ("Black Wiccan on the flow, oh so, bitch you know/And if you didn't know, now you know, now you know").
