Toro Y Moi (AKA, Chaz Bundick) has a new video up now on Pitchfork TV. The video, which is for his song "Talmak," compliments the blissed out musical mix of Bundick's airy falsetto and off-filter instrumental mix perfectly, weaving sundreched high-def shots of the musician with sequences of he and his friends setting off colorfully smoking fireworks. Abstract and a laid back, the video captures the feel of the song perfectly.
