Exile – “Population Control” (Remixed by Samiyam, Dibiase, Free The Robots) video

Dope video by Greg Ponstingl for the Samyiam, Dibiase and Free The Robot remixes of Exile’s “Population Control.”

Exile’s “Population Control” is a trippy, mind-bending video scored by Samyiam, Dibiase and Free The Robots who all remixed the same track featured on ‘AM/FM.’ Inspired by Exile’s “We Are All In Power” video, visual artist Greg “The Dude” Ponstingl created the video using thousands of still images and striking visual effects to make a boombox literally come to life. The result is a rather trippy experience, and if you are prone to seizures, look away.

When I first watched “We are all in Power,” I was blown away. A year later, I was able to meet with Ex and start working on this video. This project gave me the chance to be experimental and work differently. Using 3 songs in one video was something that intrigued me because, in my opinion, the traditional “music video” is a way of the past. We need visual artists to think outside the box and re-invent the “music video.”
