MoSS feat. Eternia – Day & Night [Video]

After 5 years since their Fat Beats full length debut, Eternia & MoSS return with “Day & Night”. Featured on MoSS’s album “Marching to the Sound of My Own Drum”, MoSS provides a hypnotizing and haunting sonic backdrop as Eternia struggles between spirit and flesh in her signature soul-excavating style. “Day & Night” explores the war going on inside every person, for “what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do” (St. Paul). The outcome of the battle is left unknown, as Eternia’s chorus prays, “Don’t let the sun set on me…” Director Ian Johnson cinematically explores themes of darkness vs. light, lust, and the multiplicity of one being. The visuals, as hypnotizing as MoSS’s production, also pays homage to MoSS’s psychedelic classic rock musicality in the coloring, editing, and esthetic styling.
