FKJ and Bas have dropped off an accompanying music video for their collaborative track “Risk,” taken from the producer and multi-instrumentalist’s Ylang Ylang EP. According to the duo, the animated visual’s concept took inspiration from how the track’s lyricism connected the two musicians creatively. They then built on the idea from the paintings of each track on the EP with the artist Lossapardo, finally coming together to deliver a beautiful and calming music video.

Ylang Ylang saw a November 2019 release and was born from FKJ’s year of self-isolation in the South East Asian jungle of the same name. The Dreamville act appears as the only guest feature, and the EP is a culmination of FKJ’s feelings during the album’s inception.
