GUM - 'Deep Razz' music video.

GUM - Jay Watson’s solo project - has just dropped a psychedelic music video for ‘Deep Razz’, lifted off his latest album ‘Flash In The Pan’.

The trippy visual accompaniment was directed by Alex Aulson.

About the song, Jay says: "‘Deep Razz’ is about how confused we all are, simultaneously manic and blissed out. Permanently unsure whether we’re doing the right thing or not. Musically it reflects that, whizzing, fizzing and buzzing through vocoders, tape delays and busted synthesizer."
