#VSSOUNDS : TRENTEMOLLER – DECIEVE
If you haven’t seen it yet, the accompanying video to Trentemoller’s, Deceive will surely take your breathe away. The clip was directed by Daniel Wirtberg and is a haunting piece of cinematography.

#VSSOUNDS : GALCHER LUSTWERK – 100% GALCHER
This weeks #VSSOUNDS comes from a relatively unknown artist by the name of Galcher Lustwerk. We gave this to you in the lead up to the weekend because we feel it’s the perfect vibe setting mix, compiled using all of his own tracks. Chill, woozy, machine driven House music with some true emotion. Get it…

CHROMATIC
Riley Blakeway followed Chippa Wilson and Nathan Fletcher for 14 months and came up with this, somewhat, ‘mini movie’. 22 minutes long, jam packed with technical jumps and fucking huge pitts. What more could you ask for, really?

SURFS UP!
A few weekends back, upon seeing the swell that was about to hit the east coast, VelvetSea decided it was time to get up off our arses and bail the big smoke. With an absence of filmers available and getting sick of the back and forth that was happening, we thought, fuck it, we’ll do it…

Dirty Harry
We didn’t know who Matt Payne was until we came across these two clips and to tell you the truth, we still don’t know too much. All we know is he’s based out of Newport, CA and that he creates nice edits based on surfer Jason Harris, in which he experiments with narrative and medium. It’s refreshing…
#VSLIKES | RB SHOW REEL
There is a lot of crap getting out in the WorldWideWeb these days, amongst that is some well worth watching, quality clips. Riley Blakeway’s show reel is one of those clips. The man has been pumping out quality for a few years now so its no surprise that his show reel is of the highest quality.
Now
Chippa Wilson and Riley Blakeway’s new project looks to be a doozy. These guys have been filming/surfing all over the globe at some rad places and by the looks of things, and the way people have been talking they’ve been loggin’ some epic clips too!
