Dean Blunt and Inga Copeland are offering fans a teaser of their new album.
Releasing three albums as Hype Williams, Dean Blunt and Inga Copeland are preparing for a new work under their own name. ‘Black is Beautiful’ drops on April 16th, and the pair have now unveiled a typically cryptic teaser.
The Hyperdub Facebook page pointed fans towards the video, which has a quasi-Biblical tone. Watch it below.

The video would appear to continue a Biblical theme running through Dean Blunt’s work of late. Crafting a video for Hyperdub label-mate Scratcha DVA, the film maker used elements of a children’s film about the life of Jesus.
Of course, the heavyweight message of the new teaser is given a fresh spin when you realise that it is in fact a sample from a WWE advertising campaign. Watch the original clip below for a quick contrast.
