About the Art and Video:
Created by award-winning director and visual artist Jeremiah Mayhew (Muse, Miike Snow, Macy Gray) and San Francisco-based boutique creative studio Goat Island Studios (of M/H - VCCP Group), the video blends 2D Animation, 3D Animation, claymation, and cutting-edge graphical software editing techniques to immerse FLOYD WONDER fans into an unforgettable “trip” through a party-centric, drug-infused weekend bender in a Las Vegas-adjacent musical fantasy palace. The Palazzo music video is a jaw-dropping, hilarity-inducing music video, full of visual eye candy in every frame, that illustrates FLOYD WONDER’s extravagant bathrobe-wearing party-first lifestyle in an uber-stylistic way.
While Mayhew led the charge creatively, he strategically enlisted fellow Goat Island animation artists Caroline Burke (Audi, Adobe, Pyrex) and Ijah Garfield (Microsoft, Lenovo, Bottlerock), as well as over 20 freelance Fivver digital artists from all over the world including Sri Lanka, Mexico, Pakistan, Argentina, and more. It was quite the undertaking, but by embracing the freelance gig-economy, all the creators were able to build a highly polished music video via the power of emerging digital collaboration tools during the pandemic.
About the Posters:
The posters depict FLOYD WONDER standing in front of the surreal PALAZZO and were illustrated by Mayhew and were printed on high quality 18" x 24" printing paper via premium inkjet ink.
About the Music:
FLOYD WONDER fuses hip-hop and party pop flair into one swagger-filled package. The party music duo consists of C.Todd Nielson and Greg Hvnsen, and has quickly gained attention after their music has been used by the likes of Netflix, Apex Legends, League of Legends, Samsung, NFL on Fox, Ron’s Gone Wrong (Movie Trailer), and more.
Their music has garnered over 11M Spotify Streams in under two years of releasing music together. FLOYD WONDER’s third EP will release later this year on Position Music.
