Caprice Classic Music is the first single off the recently released instrumental album Joyous Sounds & Other Spells. In the video, Eye Traveler pays homage to the sounds that shaped and molded him. It is a combination of west coast hip hop and funk, with a sprinkling of jazz.
Visually, Eye Traveler captures an elegant jazzman from the
bygone era of Central Ave. jazz scene in 1940s Los Angeles if drum machines
and samplers were present while also showing the influence of lowrider car
culture that informed his youth. It is a style that pulls from classic LA hip hop acts like Above The Law to
Cincinnati Ohio's Hi Tek (Reflection Eternal).
Check out the video and album below.
