Earlier this summer, the Drums & Ammo production crew released their debut instrumental album, Vol. 1, and have kept fans plenty busy since, with a collection of remixes and videos, even pairing a variety of the instrumentals with up-and-coming rappers for their Extra Clip EP release. And now, continuing to push the creative envelope, Drums & Ammo member Al Jieh has collaborated with artist and video director Max Capacity to shoot a video for the Vol. 1 track “Love Mind.” “Max Capacity is a dope pixel artist; we’re fans of each other’s work” explains Jieh on why the two decided to collaborate. “Max uses weird VHS gear to record and process it all for his pixel art. He’s one of my favorite artists right now.”
For a single called “Love Mind,” the video does well to provide a striking visual for the music, an instrumental that, to Al Jieh, “always sounded like an old porno song.” Max Capacity brings the vision to life, taking an old porno clip of two women kissing and enjoying each other’s company, turning the shots into a colorful, pixilated and hazy clip that compliments the music while giving a nod to psychedelic cinematography of yesteryear.
