Clav Dub

Rhombus

Synopsis

Wellington dub, roots act Rhombus catapulted to national attention with this video for the brassy, bouncy, self referential first single from their debut album ‘Bass Player’. As well as paying fulsome tribute to the classic NZ road movie Goodbye Pork Pie (complete with cameo from the film’s star, and original “Blondini”, Kelly Johnson), director Chris Graham also fills the clip with hometown musical heavyweights including Fat Freddy’s Drop, Trinity Roots (with a snatch of ‘Little Things’) and MC Rizzla aka Tiki Taane (who features on the original track).
