    Tell me about how you first discovered Odesza! I found them through Pandora in 2014 right after they released In Return and I was immediately hooked

    As an "Odesza cult member" (per my mom) its difficult to describe the impact they've had on my life. things havent always been easy in life but for some reason their music makes me want to face them head on. LOL yeah.....Im just so thankful hahah. I hope to tell them in person, but if I dont its ok. I get to live life with less weight.
    Thank you for this Audio Eats!!!! excuse me while I wipe tears :)

    This was incredible. A must watch for any deep ODESZA fan. Shit it’s a must watch for the causal fans, too! These guys are geniuses. I was expecting you to touch on the lore the unreleased VIP mixes have on the fan base. Waiting years for official versions to come out. Regardless this was perfect. Thanks for putting it together!

    I found out about them in 2016 when the Microsoft video game Forza horizon 3 came out. The game had radio stations that you could use and listen to music while you were driving around two of their songs were in the game and I immediately fell in love with their music. Since then, I’ve been there for every album and single releases and just saw them in concert in September of 2023. They’re now my favorite artist and the best artist I’ve ever seen live.

    I was at lost lake festival az 2017. Someone or something called Odesza was about to come on. Last show on the last night.
    They quickly distracted me from my romantic inconsistencies of the evening and quickly proceeded to raise all standards of my tastes in entertainment and opened my heart to a new scale of love

  • @drwhalemusic
    @drwhalemusic Рік тому +1

    I'll offer an anecdote, which is that I was at CRSSD festival in March 2015 where they played Bronco for what I later learned was only the 3rd time. Nobody in the crowd had heard it, and it was the final closer at the end of an otherwise strictly dreamy-styled set that you'd expect from them at the time. To this day, as someone who has seen hundreds of electronic shows, that horn drop in bronco at that show was the single most wild crowd reaction I have seen. At a time when trap/dubstep/womp-y music was so massive and ODESZAs softer tones seemed like their edge, it was really the ultimate flex to drop the single coolest trap beat of the entire festival/year. Good memories... maybe its nostalgia/bias but I still do prefer that live bronco version to the official Loyal. Chills every time!

    • @audioeats
      @audioeats  Рік тому +1

      Yeah Bronko was absolutely wild, I also saw them in March 2015 in Nashville and the energy of the crowd skyrocketed as soon as they played it. I agree that Bronko was a little bit cooler than Loyal, it's still a cool track but I think those pre drop vocals really set it off.

    Odesza was introduced to me by my cousin in December of 2018. I hadn't seen him in years (barring a week in July that same year) and we hit it off like we had never spent any time apart. He has actually introduced me to a lot of artists I like now like AJR, Jon Bellion, Wooli, and Porter Robinson. For me, Odesza will always encapsulate that week I spent in TX with him. I even got to see them live with him at ACL in 2023 it was an amazing show 10000% would recommend anything they do live.

It's so fucking good!" Here I am nearly 10 years and a bunch of shows later with their icosahedron tattoo'd on me

    From wikipedia: The band's name is taken from the name of Mills' uncle's sunken vessel, which was named after the Ukrainian city of Odesa. Only his uncle and one other crew mate survived.[17] Since the spelling "Odessa" was already being used by a Scottish synth band, they instead chose to use a form of the Hungarian spelling, replacing the "ss" with "sz".[18] The correct spelling in Hungarian is “Odessza”. Awesome Video! Wish they had more BTS videos, would be interesting to see a documentary about their live show production. Also, Late Nite was a rework of LLC by beachesbeaches, it’s a shame they deleted LLC from the face of the earth. It was definitely a great song.

    This nailed everything but did not mention their performance at Vertex music festival in 2016 that included a live orchestra. The lineup I believe may have been partially curated by Odesza, including Jai Wolf, Big Wild, and Rufus

    • @audioeats
      @audioeats  Рік тому

      Like a full blown orchestra? There are a handful of videos on UA-cam of that set but it just looks like their normal set to me. There's one video of their drumline performing with them during that set, but they've been doing that at every show for a long time now, and they have used trumpet & trombone players a lot in recent years
