The Last Goodbye

About

In genre term, the electronic duo ODESZA occupies a bit of a gray area: not quite dance music (too dense and cinematic for the club), but not quite pop or indie, either. Some have labeled the group’s sound “chill-ba,” which, though clunky, appropriately captures their hybrid sound—a mix of heady, meditative soundscapes (chirpy sample, airy chime, and synths that almost sound like they’re breathing) with the explosive glitz and drama of main-stage EDM. Over the past decade, Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight leaned hard into this niche and built a cult following, becoming the sort of rare electronic act that can carry a packed amphitheater. (Their shows have firework, drum line, drone show, and trippy visual, all soundtracked by sweeping, emotional songs meant to take you on a journey.) .
