It only took two words for ODESZA to properly introduce their long-awaited return to the touring circuit: “We’re back.” Over the weekend, the Grammy-nominated duo kicked off an innovative amphitheater tour at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena in support of their scintillating fourth album, The Last Goodbye. The show on July 29th not only marked the beginning of a momentous, three-day hometown takeover, but also ODESZA’s first live performance in three years. Longtime fans of ODESZA can attest that there’s nothing quite like the duo’s live performances. Their signature drumline, captivating production and immersive visuals are enough to leave even the most veteran concert-goer awestruck. ODESZA perform at the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle o...
ODESZA’s “The Last Goodbye” Album Is a Deeply Personal Mosaic of Their Memories: Listen
They say you can’t connect the dots looking forward—you can only connect them looking backwards. And in the case of ODESZA‘s long-awaited fourth album, The Last Goodbye, memories are the key. There’s a reason why longtime fans find solace in ODESZA’s music. It has long functioned as a nostalgia machine which metaphysically makes us recall the last vestiges of the things that made us most happy. But what really makes ODESZA’s timeless music so special is its profound ability to nestle into the blueprints of our lives, tethering itself to the charts that dictate our growth. And in doing so, ODESZA and their fans mature in lockstep, like family members. The Last Goodbye is a testament to that familial bond. For far too long, touring musicians—especially DJs—...

After the release of ODESZA‘s newest single, the hype for their long-awaited fourth album is bubbling over.

ODESZA Share Statement Supporting Women’s Rights After Overturning of Roe v. Wade
In the immediate aftermath of the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade, ODESZA have shared a statement reflecting on the far-reaching impacts of the court’s decision. “We wouldn’t be able to do what we do if it weren’t for the women in our lives: our partners, our mothers, our grandmothers, and the women on our team & crew who have made us who are and who make the ODESZA project possible,” the duo’s opening remarks read. ODESZA go on to share their frustration over the ruling, explaining that nearly 50 years of judicial precedent has been uprooted in what feels like “a matter of minutes.” The statement continues with the duo reiterating their belief in a woman’s right to choose while warning the court’s decision is...
ODESZA Drop Haunting Single From Upcoming Fourth Album: Listen to “Wide Awake”
One of the year’s most anticipated electronic albums continues to unfurl with “Wide Awake,” a new single from ODESZA’s long-awaited fourth LP. An aching deep house ballad, “Wide Awake” further twists the knife into ODESZA’s four-on-the-floor sensibilities. With its tribal rhythms, haunting vocal swells and hypnotic topline from Charlie Houston, the track harkens back to the alluring sound design of BRONSON, the duo’s collaborative nom de plume with Australian beatsmith Golden Features. “Wide Awake” is the fifth single to be released ahead of The Last Goodbye, which is scheduled to drop on July 22nd, 2022.

Revisiting Daft Punk’s “Silhouette” iPod Ad: May Its Memory Never Die
Apple dealt a deadly blow this week when they announced the iPod, originally released in 2001, will be no more. While its memory lives on via features now standard to the casual listening experience (playlists, play counts, and most famously, the shuffle button), there’s one iPod feature that we can’t dare to forget: the “silhouette” commercials. Debuted in the early 2000s alongside the 3rd and 4th generation iPod Classics, Apple’s most iconic line of ads featured silhouette figures moving and grooving in front of candy-colored backgrounds and of course, their white corded headphones. One of our favorite songs to set the soundtrack for a silhouette commercial was “Technologic” by Daft Punk. It’s like a time capsule for its 2005 release ...

The Road to ODESZA’s Fourth Album Continues With Haunting Single, “Behind The Sun”
After the release of ODESZA‘s latest single from their fourth album, one thing has never been more clear: they won’t settle for the ordinary. The tandem have never shied away from roaming new sonic frontiers in their illustrious career, but The Last Goodbye is perhaps their biggest canvas for exploration. Case in point are the album cuts “The Last Goodbye” and “Love Letter,” which embraced house music in a way ODESZA never have before. But their new single, a subversive single called “Behind The Sun,” is markedly more haunting than its predecessors. “Behind The Sun” samples a song recorded by Simin Ghanem, an Iranian classicial singer born in 1944. Ghanem’s Persian chants bellow through ODESZA’s spellbinding sound...
ODESZA Will Preview Their New Album at Coachella In a Trippy, 11,000-Square Foot Dome
In 2018, ODESZA made headlines with a jaw-dropping performance at Coachella, where hundreds of drones hovered above the stage to form the duo’s logo. A lengthy four years later and nearly five since the release of their last studio album, A Moment Apart, ODESZA are finally ready to return to the desert—in the festival’s Antarctic Dome, that is. Powered by Coachella sponsor HP, ODESZA will preview music from their forthcoming album, The Last Goodbye, inside the immersive art installation. As far as we know, ODESZA, who recently announced an expansive tour, won’t actually appear in the Antarctic Dome in-person. Their music, however, will serve as the soundtrack for a digital art showcase complete with 360° screens, surround-sound speakers and trippy 3D imag...
