Los Angeles-based Brandon Coleman is a keyboardist Kamasi Washington‘s band, but more than that, he’s an old friend of Washington’s and a solo artist in his own right. On September 14 he is releasing a new album, Resistance, via Flying Lotus’ Brainfeeder label. Now he has shared another song from it, “All Around the World,” via a video for the song that features him performing the song on the beach with a keytar and accompanied by song bikini clad women. By the way, Washington refers to Coleman as “Professor Boogie.” Watch the video below.

Coleman, who has also worked with the likes of Ciara, Mulatu Astatke, Childish Gambino, and Babyface, had this to say about Resistance in a press release: “I’ve been in the studio a lot in recent years, writing with this or that artist and I always felt constrained… like I had to compromise and submit to a ‘pop’ sensibility. This time I just wanted to create something that was really free… something original… to incorporate all the styles that I represent, because often when I’ve tried to do that in the past it’s been met with resistance.”
