Synopsis

"UTFALL!" presents "Kaskaden" as the opening credits to an imaginary adventure film that never begins. A lone dancer performs a tightly choreographed routine in a stylized world shaped by martial-arts cinema, 1980s Hollywood, and jungle-exploration fantasies. Rather than following a conventional narrative, the video builds atmosphere through movement, dramatic presentation, and the promise of an unseen story. The result feels like a theatrical introduction to a lost film, complete with its own title and mythology.

Factoids & Trivia

  • "UTFALL!" is the fictional film title attached to the video for "Kaskaden," an instrumental track from Casiokids' 2011 album *Aabenbaringen over aaskammen*.
  • The band's explanation presents the video as both a dance piece and the credits for a movie that never starts. The concept leaves the imagined adventure deliberately unseen.
  • The Norwegian word "utfall" can relate to attack, outcome, or result. The word also connects to falling, while "Kaskaden" refers to a cascade, reinforcing the video's tension between action, motion, and waterfall imagery.
  • Casiokids gave the production team carte blanche to reinterpret the instrumental track. That freedom led to a visual treatment quite different from a conventional performance video.
  • The dance was choreographed by Dutch contemporary dancer Marjolein Vogels.
  • The visual language draws on kung fu films and 1980s Hollywood, while retaining a distinctly Norwegian flavor.
  • The imaginary film is associated with the explorer character Dr Tarzan Monsoon and a hidden jungle waterfall, ideas that had already shaped the band's conception of "Kaskaden."
  • The video was accompanied by a film-style poster, extending the fictional movie concept beyond the screen.
  • The video premiered in March 2012 ahead of the release of "Kaskaden" as a single in April 2012.
