**Brijean Murphy** and **Doug Stuart** teamed up to make music together under the moniker [**Brijean**](https://brijean.com/?ref=glamglare.com). Ahead of their upcoming full-length album “Feelings,” they share the new single and video “Ocean”. The album will be out on February 26th via [Ghostly International](https://ghostly.com/?ref=glamglare.com). The new track is as beautiful and compelling as one would expect from a song titled “Ocean.” One can sense the sunlight dancing on the water’s surface, complete with seagulls diving for sustenance and waves relentlessly swashing ashore. Like a much-needed mini-vacay, recharging in less than five minutes!

The video’s director **flatspot \_\_\_•** remarks:

> Various methods of video feedback and modular video synthesis were utilized to manipulate the footage captured by Brijean and Doug. We decided on a black and white treatment of the footage, contrasting with selective coloring and unusually cropping of the clips to evoke a dreamlike sequence, bringing the ocean to the desert.

In 2018, Murphy and Stuart began collaborating. Both are known in the close-knit Oakland music scene and share a common background in jazz, Latin, and soul music. Murphy is also the high-in-demand percussionist for acts like Poolside, Toro Y Moi, or U.S. Girl.

The duo’s first sessions resulted in the mini-album Walkie Talkie (released in 2019 on Native Cat Recordings). They continued to collaborate with other Oakland-based musicians, inviting friends Chaz Bear, Tony Peppers, and Hamir Atwal over, and they all ended up contributing to the album.

Murphy says about these collaborating times:

> We improvised on different feels for hours. Nothing quite developed at first but we had seeds. We re-opened the sessions a couple months later, after returning from tours, and spent a month developing the songs in a little 400 square foot cottage.

We can not wait for the album to drop! For now, watch the video for “Ocean,” and indulge in our Song Pick of the Day:
