Do you want to know why this style of video is effective now? It's because we're all fed up with overly edited and fast-paced content. This here is like a moment when time has paused, and we're stuck in it, appreciating the genuine side of life. It feels like real life once again. :)
This is not theater, or a movie... not even a story... somehow you were able to purvey an absolute experience through sound and sight. You are living the life. I envy you and I hope you keep making things like this. Art.
I feel like I couldn’t really enjoy my early youth. Be that my over bearing parents, my insecurities, my lack of assertiveness, my culture, or just shitty people around me, I feel like I was always limited by whatever happening around me. This video gave me a glimpse of what I missed out on, but I’m still excited to see what I can do for myself, because now I feel ready to live for myself.
@@Catzy.15 oh definitely. It was a combination of how I saw the world at the time and my letting go of my own autonomy for the sake of “not being a nuisance to other people”
@@yourfavoritememory4223 While I did say that, I don't think I blame myself too much anymore. Upbringing is so integral to how we see the world, so I can see that how I react to the world is a direct effect of the world around me, but I can also choose to think otherwise. Recently I've been interested in trying to let go of my biases and really "think otherwise" in all facets of my life. I've been feeling a lil lost because of it, but I've been finding more of myself through new experiences and new people. Kind of exciting, kind of scary
Your work is on another level dude. Such a crazy balance between vlog-like style but feeling like a movie, and really cool seeing bts of the music vids and directing. I could watch this sh*t for hours.
this felt so real in every way i’m not sure what any of it was about but i felt so connected to every part as if i were there. i’m not even sure there’s a word to describe this type of art but it’s amazing and makes you feel such a range of emotions
I don't know why i clicked on this and how those 18 minutes passed. It was truly a piece of art, I didn't got bored at any point which is surprising. As in this era of flashy, fast moving content, this video just gave me piece and I slowed down for a while. Thank you youtube for recommending this and a huge shoutout to the creator Bennett Coast.
I have no idea who any of these people are or why this popped up in my timeline but I loved watching it and feel like these guys are living their life out exactly like they are supposed to… I’m 24 years old everyday until I look in the mirror and realize holy shit my face is turning grey and then I remember the inevitable truth of the matter is soon I’m going to be turning 40 years old and there was so much I thought I would have done by now.. from the depth of my soul I can truly attest that indeed Growing Up Hurts 😔 ..Please Bennett take the time to now to enjoy those around you and take advantage of the opportunities your dreams have given you because one day you will wake up with a grey face too, all alone, you and your friends have all grown apart.. and those same dreams that seemed so close to reality that that they actually started manifesting into real life time and time again ..will eventually seem to just stop being as magical and will drift further and further from existence So… Thank you for reminding me of the magic the universe brings you when your young.. before everything becomes so serious ..and I hope you continue to follow your dreams while you still have the time to because no matter what..you will eventually find success in life after you do what ever it is repeatedly every day over and over ..so you might as well find it while doing something you love ;-)
@obxclean237 I think the feeling of being free and not taking life to seriously is something that can be found in every age. I wish for you to read your own message and think about what you can do (at your age) to bring back the feeling of this kind of joy you're getting from this video into your life. Cause it definitey is possible. Go call one of those friends you are talking about, go to that concert, go read that book, pick up a new hobby. It is not too late, you literally still got so much time to do stuff. Make use of it! Don't be afraid to wake the child in you. Make the time and change your current mindset, if you think it will make you happier.
when you made 'are we losing touch?' i found myself revisiting the video so so often. the colors, and the music, and blend between the music and images, and most importantly the feeling, are things that i couldn't unsee. this video is even more impactful. the way that you see the world and re create it through the lens of a camera and direction, is absolutely incredible. the combination of things that you create is a world that feels so real, in a time where almost nothing does.
Reminds me of depersonalization/derealization; contrary to what others are saying about how it makes them feel connected, this actually reminds me of how disconnected and empty I feel with dp/dr. Like I'm just here watching everyone else live their life and I can't do anything to become connected and start living again. I'm still present and going through the motions in every moment, but everything is empty - I genuinely don't feel alive even though I'm still going out and visiting people and acting normal. I'm trying to live my life, but I just feel disconnected constantly. Those who have experienced dp/dr will be able to relate. It's like hell on earth because I can still remember how everything used to be and how I used to feel. I can't function normally anymore. I'm putting on an act everyday, pretending to be rather than being because I can't actually be present- I've tried; I want to be depressed about it but I'm disconnected and numb to that even. I have nothing.
I was tearing up by the end of this video. Reminds me so much of all the time I spent making videos growing up into my early 20’s. The infamous “we’re running out of daylight” line had me cheesing so hard. Now I’m about to board a plane for a meeting I have tomorrow for my corporate job. Not that I hate it, but this video has me reminiscing and thinking about what life would be like if I had taken the creative route. “Growing up is hard” is the perfect tagline for your stuff. I listen to your music on repeat all the time and it always brings out this childlike yet very real and emotional side. Thanks for showing the BTS of making one of my favorite songs! Love seeing you grow! ❤
What an amazing change of pace from quick and heavily edited videos to slow and edited just enough to not feel slow type of videos. This video is a piece of art.
This just proves you are so much more than a musician and a cinematographer, also a true artist. Your nuance and your creative decisions do not go unnoticed. Experiencing your works are an honour. Truely amazing!
everything you do is so sincere it seems obvious to begin with. like it's such a pure reflection of yourself. it feels better when you forget you exist. makes you realise how important it is to make something out of what you truly feel. at least that's how i see the world
holy shit that video was cool... love how organic this video felt, nothing was staged, many things feel random at first, yet it felt like something more than a vlog or bts
I’m not even halfway through and I’m crying, I know people tend to really beat the depression horse to death, but I’ve struggled with depression which for me almost feels like all I can see is gray, my mind jumps out at and latches onto everything around me that is wrong, things like a young death or how people tend to treat each other or the state of the world at large, and it’s in moments like these that I get a glimpse of what someone like yourself literally sees the world as, like I linger on apathy or a lack of motivation whereas you live in the immediate often colorful moment, when the girl was dancing in the empty apartment I might usually over worry about how we’re going to furnish it as opposed to how the camera portrayed it as a beautiful and intimate moment with the person that makes you happy, this video isn’t just a collection of randomly occurring kinda cool moments it is the message I needed today more than ever, that there is hope and that life will have as much meaning to me as I decide to give it. THANK YOU
A very honest and thoughtful comment :) I wish you all the best for your future, you seem like a great person and I send you all the strength you need to beat the depression! 🫶🏼
12:40 was something special about listening to this, thank you for the perspective and thank you for all the intent you put behind such underrated art into the world.
Fascinating snapshot of your life. As a mover in Los Angeles who grew up in lower income family in the sanfernando valley, I often times wondered about the lives of people like yourselves in which I was very unlikely to be a part of in any other situation. This is captivating video art and I appreciate you sharing your perspective art with me.
this is the type of video that make me want to live my life to the fullest and make me think that being around people might actually be a pleasant expereince. thanks for the video. colours and frames are beatiful
This quality of video is so good, this is what RUclips needs to be this is what my brain needs, it’s so well produced and it’s not loud over load of information just simple well quality video
I found out through RUclips algorithms This guy boosted my childhood sensitivity. Surprised by this guy's music, surprised by the video, surprised by his age.
I don't even know how I got here, but I absolutely love this. I love your music and your work. And this video is somehow really inspiring. This is art.
you document moments of the human experience in such a beautiful and unique way. the work you put out both musically and cinematically will forever resonate so deeply with me, the coolest coast to ever do it 💫💫
I came to this video crying with tears all over my face and clothes, i opened youtube and clicked on the first video i saw, as the video went on a sat up on mu bed got myself a cup of water and just watched the whole thing, it soothed me like a lullaby I love you❤️
It's so full me up. I feel like: "yeah, I am 20 and I also can do smthg like this guy, something creative, important, fun, freedom and cool Thank you for your творчество
Woow! Told a whole movie using no words. No words like " we are heading out to ..." " we're making a music video, but it has been a shitshow" You told us everything simply by showing us. Every shot is also fucking badass, the composition, wow... im about to stalk all your content and subscribe as well
This is genuinely one of the best things i have seen on RUclips lately. I am so glad to have randomly clicked on it. You have no idea how much this has inspired me, it has encouraged me to make a move on my career. Looking forward to seeing your future projects!
Yea this is insane!!! Very raw, very tangible! It’s like it’s all in chronological order. No crazy edits or transitions. I think this motivated me to just blast some stuff out! Thanks!
love your art and love seeing this, rogue has to be one of my all time faviroute songs, to me its the perfect indie track, great shuffle drums and timing on the hat, dreamy chorus guitar and layered vocals. once again, love your work
I don't know what to do with this. I'm kinda speechless. This inspired me in so many different ways. But it also scared me a bit. I know I have potential, but what if I never live life as fully as I could. I would love to create videos like that, but somehow I end up not doing it. Because it takes so much time and effort, before you actually get good at something. In the end it's time worth spent though. I think I just have to try. Just start. Maybe this is the beginning of something great. Thank you for this video, man. It seems like you're living the dream. Love
Great concept and thanks for inviting us into your mind. U have a really unique perception and it’s really well produced. Glad it was in my suggestions :)
i love how this doesn't have to be perceived in a certain way. it quite literally is what it is, yet its so intriguing. sparked some inspiration in me 🧐 love it :D
Dr Spencer! We met him last year in Slab City and he also had us helping out. We put up the birdbox outside the sign for the tower of enlightenment. So nice to see it is still there :) He also made us walk the plank before we climbed the tower haha. What a character.
Do you want to know why this style of video is effective now? It's because we're all fed up with overly edited and fast-paced content. This here is like a moment when time has paused, and we're stuck in it, appreciating the genuine side of life. It feels like real life once again. :)
I mean, this is kinda edited and fast paced if you think about it
You know that if you are fed up with it you can maybe stop watching, no one is forcing you to watch shorts so if it ruins your mood why do it
Because this is shot and edited in like-a movie making. Lowkey not an editor but my eyes still can catch every motion
@@n0340It's addictive.
just go outside
the first 1 min were midsommar vibes
Just maybe not the death part
editor: okay so do you want a vlog, documentary, music video or art?
bennett: yes
I still bhop for fun
he lives
legend
oh my god hello
I absolutely love this
gawx???
love you gawx
Wow Gawx is here
gawx! love you my guy (love this video too)
Of course gawx is here
i imagine this is something you'll show your kids some day and they'll absolutely admire you for it
This is not theater, or a movie... not even a story... somehow you were able to purvey an absolute experience through sound and sight. You are living the life. I envy you and I hope you keep making things like this. Art.
I feel like I couldn’t really enjoy my early youth. Be that my over bearing parents, my insecurities, my lack of assertiveness, my culture, or just shitty people around me, I feel like I was always limited by whatever happening around me. This video gave me a glimpse of what I missed out on, but I’m still excited to see what I can do for myself, because now I feel ready to live for myself.
maybe it was always you
@@Catzy.15 oh definitely. It was a combination of how I saw the world at the time and my letting go of my own autonomy for the sake of “not being a nuisance to other people”

@@trtl9106nah, don’t blame yourself too much! The environment you grow up in has a big impact on how you see yourself and the world

I want to manifest this kind of friendship man, this is beautifull
this has been in my watch list for so long, feel like I pulled out treasure from the vault.

hardly "another level" but its nice

This is just pure cinema, just life, a bit of nostalgia, just moments
I have no idea who any of these people are or why this popped up in my timeline but I loved watching it and feel like these guys are living their life out exactly like they are supposed to…
I’m 24 years old everyday until I look in the mirror and realize holy shit my face is turning grey and then I remember the inevitable truth of the matter is soon I’m going to be turning 40 years old and there was so much I thought I would have done by now.. from the depth of my soul I can truly attest that indeed Growing Up Hurts 😔
..Please Bennett take the time to now to enjoy those around you and take advantage of the opportunities your dreams have given you because one day you will wake up with a grey face too, all alone, you and your friends have all grown apart.. and those same dreams that seemed so close to reality that that they actually started manifesting into real life time and time again ..will eventually seem to just stop being as magical and will drift further and further from existence
So… Thank you for reminding me of the magic the universe brings you when your young.. before everything becomes so serious ..and I hope you continue to follow your dreams while you still have the time to because no matter what..you will eventually find success in life after you do what ever it is repeatedly every day over and over ..so you might as well find it while doing something you love ;-)

(I do think your message to make something out of life, especially at a young age is beautiful and really important!)
This is an absolute masterpiece, there should be more art like this on RUclips.
Everything about this video is perfect
- The colour grading
- Ambience
- Cinematography.
I'd love to know what camera you guys shot this on?
I'd love to know what camera was used as well, it looks amazing!
iPhone tbh
apeture wise for some shots are definitely not iphone but some could be sure@@katielowen
sameeeee need to know, the vibes are insane
Never ask a director that question 😂😂

I can't describe how much I love this. As a filmmaker, it's like all I've ever wanted to see in a video. Truly inspiring.
This is one the best RUclips videos I’ve seen in a while
this is like a movie, series a music video and art at the same time, incredible!
6:13 - Nothing Ever Happens, by Even as We Speak (search it for maybe half an hour, but it was worthy, just like this video and all it represents)

Loved how the first half of this video was just swedencore
this feel like someone's dream that never happened
this randomly popped up on my feed and I was literally drawn to it, it's so wholesome man, it felt good watch.
drinking at the water with good friends... quoting fear and loathing... this speaks to my soul
i dont think theres a video that represents how i see the world than this. Youve done an amazing job!!
In all my fumbling efforts of film making, this is what I aimed for. Gorgeous.
everything you do is so sincere it seems obvious to begin with. like it's such a pure reflection of yourself.
it feels better when you forget you exist. makes you realise how important it is to make something out of what you truly feel.
at least that's how i see the world

this is the most beautiful cinematography of any vlog looking video ever!!
Such a fascinating video
I couldn't peel my eyes off it.

bro what camera do you use plus colour grading? obsessed
Same question here.
This is a fantastic video. Thank you for inspiring me.

the way you see the world is beautifull

Every shot this man does is awesome, truly.
this is very relaxing
every time you pass a moment with her i can feel how u do it seems
the color grading is awesome , you should made a tutorial on how you do it
So fucking sick dude... seriously I would watch this a hundred times over and never get bored. Great work and looking forward to more
What camera/lens do u use?
Woow! Told a whole movie using no words. No words like " we are heading out to ..." " we're making a music video, but it has been a shitshow"
You told us everything simply by showing us. Every shot is also fucking badass, the composition, wow... im about to stalk all your content and subscribe as well

Love the art and idea✨🫶🏼
Your music has something no other has. I can't describe it. I think most of us can't. But we love that feeling so much!
This is literally art at its finest
this is one of the most beautiful films I've seen on youtube in a long time
absolutely beautiful from beginning to end. this is what i aspire to create
This is genuinely one of the best things i have seen on RUclips lately. I am so glad to have randomly clicked on it. You have no idea how much this has inspired me, it has encouraged me to make a move on my career.
Looking forward to seeing your future projects!
These kind of videos help reignite my love for life
Yea this is insane!!! Very raw, very tangible! It’s like it’s all in chronological order. No crazy edits or transitions. I think this motivated me to just blast some stuff out! Thanks!
This video is so amazing just because of the fact that you have no idea what it is.
WHAT CAMERA IS BEING USED??
this is the coolest. i don’t know what this is but i’m feelin it. and it’s beautiful.
The beauty of life in its raw simplicity
oh my god driver means so much to me this is literally behind the scenes. thank you so much
love your art and love seeing this, rogue has to be one of my all time faviroute songs, to me its the perfect indie track, great shuffle drums and timing on the hat, dreamy chorus guitar and layered vocals. once again, love your work
Dude, this is beautiful. I remember in high-school seeing some of the stuff you put out, but this is over the top. Keep doing you

Great concept and thanks for inviting us into your mind. U have a really unique perception and it’s really well produced. Glad it was in my suggestions :)
This is beautiful. Thank you
i wanna live in this holy fuck wow i wish i could document my life like this so i could watch it and perceive myself and my life
uhhhh. im astonished by these numbers man.
the beginning reminds of a scene from midsommar i was on edge
i love how this doesn't have to be perceived in a certain way. it quite literally is what it is, yet its so intriguing. sparked some inspiration in me 🧐 love it :D
This feels like home, love it ❤🎉
This was a nice break, thank you :)
why does this feel so beautiful
this video is beatiful, great work

Dr Spencer! We met him last year in Slab City and he also had us helping out. We put up the birdbox outside the sign for the tower of enlightenment. So nice to see it is still there :) He also made us walk the plank before we climbed the tower haha. What a character.
