Odesza is one of those groups that you can always count on to brighten your day and lighten your mood. Their uplifting and bouncy melody lines sit perfectly atop wonderfully crafted drum beats, and it's almost impossible not to break out into a giant smile every time you hear their distinctive sound.
The music video for their song "iPlayYouListen" captures the feeling of their music perfectly, and it might surprise you that Director/DP/Editor Diego Contreras managed to whip it up in a matter of two days without any kind of budget. Using footage he had from the traditional "cuetes," or firework parties, that happen in Guatamala on Christmas Eve, Contreras wove together an ethereal and whimsical story of celebration, light, and wonder.
