The video, which has been seamlessly shot and edited to appear as one smooth take, begins with a walk down the hall of <a href=\"http:\/\/westcoastcraft.com\/2017\/08\/23\/studio-visit-with-musician-and-artist-chaz-b\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Company Studio<\/a>, the Oakland arts space run by Toro y Moi, a.k.a. Chaz Bear. The camera enters to find Bear sitting at a piano, jamming on the theme from <em>The Godfather<\/em> as incense burns. \u201cHow\u2019s it going?\u201d he says, turning to face us with a friendly smile. \u201cI\u2019m Chaz.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He introduces the members of his band, who begin to play the rosy, relaxed synth-funk of \u201cOrdinary Pleasure\u201d as Bear gives us a dancing tour of his studio. There\u2019s a guy putting the finishing touches on a minimalist painting, people photocopying flyers, musicians messing around with their instruments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDoes sex even sell anymore?\u201d Bear sings as he strips off his red T-shirt. \u201cI feel like I\u2019ve seen it all, or maybe I\u2019m just old.\u201d He changes into a new outfit and grabs a rose, then poses on the couch for a quick photo shoot. A large rug on the floor reads <em>Reality\u2019s tight if the music is right.<\/em> Soon we\u2019re outside for a backyard party where Bear dances with his friends and employees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOrdinary Pleasure\u201d is the latest single from Toro y Moi\u2019s new album <em>Outer Peace<\/em>, released in late January.
