Toro y Moi, also known as Chaz Bear, is only two months shy of releasing his Dead Oceans debut Mahal (Tagalog for “love”). Today (Feb. 22), the South Carolina-born, Bay Area-raised musician shares “The Loop,” the album’s third single that follows January’s “Postman” and “Magazine.”
“The Loop” is a funky, R&B-laced single that is more subdued than the electro-pop Toro y Moi is known for. Toro plays with the song’s title in the song’s repetitive “staying in the loop” chorus, crafting the perfect laid-back springtime jam. The single arrives with a Company Studio-directed video featuring Toro exploring the Bay Area by various mods of transportation, including a customized Mahal Jeepney, an iconic Filipino staple.
