Video artist Jonathan Toomey, who has created videos for Oneohtrix Point Never, Robedoor, and Young Smoke, has just dropped a deliciously minimal video for footwork pioneer RP Boo. The track is titled “Speakers R-4 (Sounds),” a characteristically syncopated mindfuck of a track punctuated by sudden bursts of percussion and chopped vocal samples. Despite its spaciousness, it’s a rhythmically dense track that’s enlivened even further by Toomey’s brilliant, meticulously constructed stroboscopic imagery.
Look for RP Boo’s Legacy May 13 on Planet Mu.
