The Drift Institute: Damages and their Slices

The Drift Insti­tute is the lat­est endeav­our from NVST and Théo Muller.

Their debut album, Dam­ages and Their Slices was recent­ly released on Pen­sa­ments Sònics, fea­tur­ing twelve tracks. The col­lab­o­ra­tive album mix­es spo­ken word and trip hop rhythms. The pro­duc­ers invite their lis­ten­ers to a deep dive into an eso­teric uni­verse where black mag­ic is com­bined with polit­i­cal revolt to offer a com­plete and execu­to­ry experience.

Now, the music video for ​“Mon­ey,” is here, direct­ed by film­mak­er, Joachim Mcx.

NVST and Théo Muller cre­ate an atmos­pher­ic, nar­ra­tive jour­ney with their music and this car­ries through the film. Bor­row­ing from the codes of witch­craft and the occult, the strong­ly cin­e­mato­graph­ic uni­verse offers a nar­ra­tive jour­ney around the fig­ure of the Drift Institute. 

The Drift Insti­tute is a mys­te­ri­ous secret soci­ety estab­lished in a cas­tle with a Goth­ic aes­thet­ic, its mis­sion is to purge the evil of the world and its lead­ers through dark shaman­ic ceremonies.
