Chillwave artist Toro Y Moi's most recent music video features the concept, direction and artwork of an artist named Lauren Gregory. The video starts off with a series of colorful canvas paintings depicting Toro Y Moi playing the piano in front of a rose quartz background. The vibrant colors of the canvas painting give the video, and by default the song, an upbeat and optimistic feel. The video transitions into more colorful backgrounds while also introducing more musicians into the moving paintings as the song builds. It's definitively trippy, but in a smarter way than usual thanks to the tasteful artwork and animation done by Gregory. It looks like Toro Y Moi might be trying to bring back the "art" of the music video—ha… ha… ha… get it? Good, now watch it.
