Over the top, periodic fantasy visuals have been making inroads into the mainstream industry since some time. It was only a matter of time before we saw it in one of the EDM videos. Odesza, the electronic music duo from Seattle making headlines for their performances, especially booking a spot to headline Red Rocks this year, have taken the inevitable with a video for their song ‘It’s Only‘. The video starts with ancient times and ends up in the present. It features cave people, Cleopatra, elephants marching through snowy mountains, warrior battles, a World War I skirmish, and much more. Director Dan Brown said,
“”It’s Only” speaks to something elemental, fire, water, love, but from a viewpoint that seems removed. Things happen, good or bad. So it goes. This inspired a story about mankind, all of mankind, from the stone age through our bloody past and into the present using that same lens.”
