ODDKO – D4TM

ODDKO’s music video “D4TM” is a post-apocalyptic visual feast, set in a dystopian world where people get lured into believing in a miracle cure.
The LA based band is the brainchild of Giovanni Bucci, who both composed the music and directed the video for “D4TM”.
Giovanni Bucci says: “‘D4TM’ was shot in September 2019, and ironically it seems to have become more relevant in a post COVID-19 world. “D4TM” highlights the notion that many are dependent on pharmaceuticals to function, often over-medicated and just left to their own devices. In the wake of the COVID-19 crisis people are bombarded with fear, putting many at risk to fall deeper into despair and turn to mind/mood altering drugs. With every passing day we take another step further into what eerily resembles the apocalyptic dystopian sci-fi world we see in movies. Perhaps, like in the video, the next step will be for us all to be micro chipped  and controlled? On the positive side, much of the world is now waking up and we have the opportunity to make decisions that are better for our own and our planet’s health.”
