ODDITY. "Revolution"

Among the achievements of the Moscow Electropop-CREED ODDITY , founded in 2015, is the debut album “ Objects ” , the performance in the final of the Emergenza -2017 festival-contest festival and a philosophical clip with the combined filming “ Revolution ”, which was shot by director Maxim Rozhkov and, according to the group, managed to receive the main prize for Japanese festival Ishinomaki International F ilm Festival:

Oddity about the song

The song "Revolution" was written in the distant 2013 and conceived as a song-reproduction; Thinking over her for some time, we left her with a song-destruction with a great synthesizer solo. The name of the song speaks for itself, but Lenin with Trotsky is not in it. And Stalin too. And Che Guevara with Castro is not there either.

Maxim Rozhkov about the video

Briefly speaking. The world flies - no one knows where. I see it that way. Is it necessary to slow down this flight, clinging to what is now, or, conversely, throw everything? I thought about it when I came up with a story. Then the idea scattered on the images, and now they could not be collected back.

The group appeared in the video as strange as snow over the night before shooting. The snow happened. And the group in the video happened. Neither one nor the other was planned. But so cooler and more precisely. The ODDITY clip is six times more than the trailer and girls. They see everything, everyone knows. The question torments me: what they observe somehow changes the world? Hey there! If someone looks after us all, even if not touching or interfering, does it somehow affect what is happening?

For me, the revolution is not to lose a child in itself. To do this, you have to destroy yourself every day, make a revolution every day. Either some win, then others ... The price of the issue is still important to me. Well, we are circling, well, a revolution. And what do we pay? In the video, I showed one of the versions of such a permanent revolution. But, probably, there are others. And I also thought that at the end I had to show the mountains empty again. It all ended, and the mountains stood as standing. But then he changed his mind. There are no more of them. And it cannot be if it all ended.
