Feature Video: Dylan Atlantis ft. FRIDAY* - Thought You'd Know By Now

Western Sydney collaborators Dylan Atlantis and FRIDAY* pull up, sunflowers in hand, to remind us that feelings can get dangerous in this week's Feature Video 'Thought You'd Know By Now'. Directed by Have You Stopped Growing's Rejjie Fanning and Ariel Riley, the clip for 'Thought You'd Know By Now' depicts a collage of vignettes which centre figuratively around the premise and feeling of being at the end of a relationship. 'This song is an ode to reluctantly letting go' Dylan explains. 'The music video shows that through certain shots such as ice melting, it's the slow deterioration of something that used to be solid. My verse also dives into that feeling of reluctancy, and explains the willingness to protect oneself even though it's a painful healing process.' Melting ice, overwatered plants, squashed fruit and burnt down cigarettes. Directors Rejjie and Ariel explain 'Almost every shot is an allusion to a relationship deteriorating, but we used Australiana as the setting. Also it's pretty funny that we actually got 170 peaches for that scene in the car park. It was so hot that day they were actually cooking on the road!' FRIDAY* (a.k.a. Fabian Odame) adds that his verse on the track is only a few lines 'because I'm laying down the situation down as plainly as possible, with barely any metaphor or simile. I wanted to depict the blunt reality of listening to your head instead of your heart, for the sake of self preservation. I'm a big fan of contrast so I love how the lyrics sound paired with the bright, off the wall, semi surreal visuals of the music video.' If you didn't know by now… well, now you do.
