LARRY PINK THE HUMAN, the duo comprised of Laurie Vincent of Slaves and producer Jolyon Thomas, have returned with their third single ‘Purpose Built’. The track follows their previously released cut ‘MIGHT DELETE LATER’. Bridging the sounds of indie and dream pop, the airy piece is absent of drums with only guitar lines, synths and occasional running snares acting as the meat of the tune.
LARRY PINK THE HUMAN have also released an accompanying video which features gorgeous landscape, city and nature shots which reflects subtle moments of peace. Directed by George Cory, you can watch the video below.
In a press statement regarding the song, LARRY PINK THE HUMAN wrote:
“We wanted to reflect the imagery that surrounds us, the calm and beauty of the Kent coast is where we spend a lot of our time when we’re together.”
Touching on the video, the band mentioned:
“George creates these Félix Valloton inspired photographs and we felt if they had some movement with video they’d really encapsulate the feel of the song and our surroundings. Also with lockdown in full swing the emptiness really felt cinematic and eerily stunning. Margate artist Rory Strudwick then tied it all together with a hand-screen-printed single artwork. It’s a colour study that Rory made, but to us it feels like a sunset, the sea, the sky. It’s awesome!”
