Danz CM — the artist, songwriter, and composer previously known as Computer Magic — presents the single and self-directed video for ‘Over The Ocean’ through Channel 9 Records.
‘Over The Ocean’ is an atmospheric synth-driven ballad reminiscent of The Cars during their ‘Drive’ era, while also evoking Danz’s sci-fi-infused Computer Magic phase.
Inspired by a recurring dream of being suspended high above the ocean, the video brings this surreal journey to life.
Filmed on the cliffs of Point Dume in Malibu, Danz CM appears alongside an assistant resembling HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey, which facilitates travel through a selected dreamscape. However, when the technology begins to fail, the assistant cannot awaken the dreamer.
“You’re left uncertain about the character's fate; it might be a reverse chronological story where the dreamscape you just observed was actually reality all along, resulting in the character’s crash landing; or perhaps the character gradually loses consciousness and disappears along with the dreamscape. I’ve always drawn inspiration from sci-fi elements, as my fans would know. Concepts like the holodeck from Star Trek, the hypersleep pods from Alien, the implanted memories from Total Recall, and the Devs system in Devs all influenced the video.”
