We've all been there before. The sun begins to peak through a shattered broken glass window at a dusty, warehouse rave. You check your phone and its already Sunday morning. The DJ is still spinning, the party is still infectious, but deep down you just know after a huge night, it's finally time to go home.
Then comes the iconic walk or Uber home. It's on that journey the sun begins to rise, the dog walkers begin to prow the streets and cafes are busy with families murmuring about their glamorous trip down the coast. As you walk out of the warehouse, you do your best to fit in to the civilians roaming the streets around you. A quick flick of the hair, a correction of your posture and most importantly, you throw on some sunnies to hide those tires eyes. You fit in, you give that main character energy and strut your way home.
The music video for James Pepper and Black Loops' hit Three Drops depicts this journey perfectly. It matches the euphoric energy of the track, which has proven to be a post-COVID mainstay in club rooms all around the world. Dropped for the first time in Pepper's Boiler Room in 2021, the track led to hundreds of ID requests across the globe, before releasing and spreading like wild fire over the past 6 months.
It's been spun by names such as Kettama, Adryiano and Chaos In The CBD, just to name a few, as well as being touted the Song Of Pitch Festival by punters in the Songs Heard Pitch Facebook group. It's now received its visual treatment, alongside the arrival of the physical version landing in mailboxes after vinyl delays that have plagued independent record labels globally. It was filmed in Marrickville, in the heart of so called Sydney's inner west, where the track was born.

The video is directed by Sam Bratby, who comments, “An ode to the floaty venture home after a rave. Navigating tired legs through the streets on the long journey to bed.”
