Hudson Mohawke has released a video for his latest single 'Very First Breath' and has announced a world tour.
'Very First Breath' is taken from Hudson Mohawke's forthcoming second LP entitled Lantern which is his first album in six years. The video follows a rival gang romance featuring fast cars and geisha girls, the video was directed by Dutch director Sam De Jong.
The new record is set to be more 'song-structured' as the single entails, and will feature guests Miguel, Jhené Aiko and Antony Hegarty. Speaking about the album, Mohawke said: "This album is everything I’ve been working towards. I wanted to make a classic – at least for me and my friends. I never wanted to be any genre. I wanted to be my own thing. Everything.”
Lantern is due out 16 June.
