Multi-talented SoCal native Josh Dominguez welcomes you to a trippy West Coast locale in his slick new video for “2 AM,” a catchy and immersive track off his early 2019 EP, The Current.

The video stars Dominguez along with two mysterious characters who help to flesh out the psychedelic tale. The narrative plays out alongside the track’s lyrics that depict a young man who sounds intent on knowing what he wants—but what does he want, really? Love? His childhood? There’s a lot to unpack here, and it’s thrilling to watch how it unfolds.

The themes in the video are explored in clever and creative ways by Dominguez, who actually directed the video as well. It was edited by Almog Avidan Antonir, with Wackoe Films handling photography, and Gifted Glitch providing the sharp visual effects. You may know GG’s other work from his visual projects with Dominguez’s frequent collaborator Ariano, who provided the woozy production on “2 AM.”

Check out the visuals and head over to your preferred digital retailer or streaming platform to support The Current, which can be streamed right here in its entirety, courtesy of RESPECT.

T.R.3 of the IMG crew is a young artist on the grind from Atlanta to Cali. Fresh off his Prelude EP and viral hit “Statistics,” T.R.3 teams up with veteran West Coast producer, Ariano, for a collaborative EP, Together Alone. As a follow up to their first single, “4 AM,” T.R.3 joins forces with the legendary Zion I, IMG family member DeShane Bankhead, lyrical poet Sage One The Wise, and fresh face Josh Dominguez on the Ariano-written hook to bring you, “The Whole World,”

The sample-free track reflects the dichotomy and duality of being increasingly frustrated with the world around us, while still loving life and all that it throws at you. T.R.3’s raw verses filled with a brutal honesty flow over Ariano’s bass-heavy, hard-hitting drums, and gritty, dreamy guitar. Combined with the candid and powerful contributions of the featured artists, “The Whole World” welcomes you into T.R.3’s universe. Stream the track above, courtesy of RESPECT.
