datshredboi is a Birmingham based electronic composer and visual creator. Heavily influenced by the music and visuals of experimental cinema; datshredboi brings a unique lo-fi style to each project he works on.
'In this short I wanted to explore the transcend nature of dreams and the unconscious mind. How even in the most difficult settings and circumstances. Someone's mind can image these amazing and ever complex mental landscapes for you to get lost in. But how ultimately in the end everything must come back to reality.'
