Tommy Kruise

"Rhea" (video)

Quebec beatmaker Tommy Kruise has an EP called Fête Foreign on the way, and he's previewing it by teaming up with the Scion Sessions to release a video for the track "Rhea."

The day-in-the-life clip offers a glimpse into the Montreal DJ's seemingly placid existence. Over a backdrop of dark, trap-inspired beats, we see the producer walking a small dog, drawing with the kids, mowing the lawn, cleaning the pool, riding his bike to the playground, and otherwise enjoying a quiet suburban life. Repeated sightings of a black car, however, indicate that there might be a little more to all this than initially meets the eye.

Tommy said in a statement, "A lot of people were askin' me what was I up to and what I was cookin' up in the last few months. 'Is Tommy hiding? Is Tommy troubled by this dry year in rap music?' Those are just some questions I was gettin' on the daily on my twitter feed. I decided to bring Martin Pariseau to my place in order to shoot a little day in the life. By day in the life, I mean a very honest one. No fireworks, no coloured smoke bombs and no slow motion. Needless to say, everybody knows now."
