For this special episode of Unsigned Berlin, we had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Khruangbin bassist Laura Lee following the press blackout around their new album "A La Sala" and Scott Dungate, director of their new video for "A Love International". The interview was put together in collaboration with the Berlin Music Video Awards as the band and Scott have been nominated for best narrative in the upcoming awards.
With Laura and Scott we talk about how the collaboration between the two of them works, the technical process behind the visually stunning video, and the creative approach to A La Sala as a whole!
Join us as we explore this beautiful intersection of music and visual art, and don't forget to say hi at the full BMVAs festival from June 12th to 14th. Thank you for tuning in to Unsigned Berlin, and enjoy the episode!
