Mac DeMarco has shared his long-brewing collaboration with the Italian singer, songwriter, and actor Ryan Paris, identified for his 1983 hit “Dolce Vita.” Try their video for brand new music “Merely Paradise,” shot by Kiera McNally, beneath.
DeMarco spoke about his love of Paris and “Dolce Vita” in Pitchfork’s 2014 documentary Pepperoni Playboy—watch him talk about (and dance on the street to) the music from the 4:20 mark.
