Synopsis

This is an atmospheric, dramatic clip built around the contrast between live-action imagery and animation. The song's emotional tension is visualized through stylized fragments rather than a conventional narrative, with the performers and animated elements sharing the same visual space. The result feels like an inner journey: intimate, unsettled, and gradually opening toward release. The video favors mood, texture, and symbolic movement over plot, making "Free" a visual counterpart to the duo's polished electronic sound.

Factoids & Trivia

• "Free" was released in 2009 as part of Leon Somov & Jazzu's debut studio album, "Updated."

• The video was produced during the summer of 2009 and premiered on September 4 of that year.

• London-based GeriFilmai, who had already worked with the duo, brought animators into the production. This made "Free" a more elaborate visual project than the concert-focused "Journey" video.

• Contemporary coverage described the clip as dramatic, distinguishing it from the live-performance approach used for "Journey."

• The video arrived during the duo's breakthrough period. In November 2009, Leon Somov & Jazzu won the MTV Europe Music Award for Best Baltic Act.

• "Free" later appeared in remixed form on the 2015 "Silence V Extra" vinyl release, where Mugwump and DC Salas contributed a new interpretation of the track.
