Music video
The song's music video was directed by Ernest Desumbila. It opens with Diplo purchasing a used BMW 8 Series and finding a fresh LSD tape in the glovebox. As he hits play on "Audio", the clip jumps to a young girl walking home from school, who encounters an animated Sia balloon floating through the air. The girl takes the balloon with her to a sprawling parking lot, where a dance routine breaks out once the "Audio" chorus drops. More psychedelic animations fill the scenery as Diplo speeds through the parched Los Angeles riverbed and Labrinth wanders the otherwise empty city.
