Trippy video (courtesy of Studio Moross). We already know and love Jessie Ware….here’s a little history on Japanese group BenZel:

BenZel is Umi Takahashi (15) and Yoko Watanabe (16). Originally from Osaka; Umi and Yoko both travelled to New York through their local foreign exchange program. They met in early 2012 through an online message board about ankle socks and quickly discovered they each had a profound appreciation for 90’s R&B and J. Dilla. After many failed attempts to create a hypoallergenic ankle sock, they decided to put their efforts toward other creative ventures. Following hours of soul searching; they decided to start BenZel…they’ve been working on it since yesterday.

A small-but-committed group of writers, bloggers and videographers that (mostly) exist and function all over the D.C. Metro area.
