A lovely audio-visual profile following Chaz Bear (aka Toro y Moi) as he works on his latest album, far from the distractions of everyday life. Filmed in Cazadero, California by San Francisco-based director and cinematographer Tyler McPherron, “Creating Outer Peace” offers an intimate glimpse into the creative process of a genre-defying artist. As McPherron states:

“the making of a Toro Y Moi album is not always about grinding it out in a music studio. In this case, it’s about seclusion, proximity to nature, relaxation and even boredom. Through this process we witness Chaz endeavour to find the peace and purity at the core of his creativity.”
