    "We all read about the Detroit Urban Farms project and saw the documentaries about it and it really moved us all. To see a community reclaiming the crumbling city blocks to grow the food they need is an incredible story in so many ways. It was moving, topical and also a beautiful and apt illustration of what the song is actually about - triumph over adversity. As a video concept, it was perfect in so many ways." - Above & Beyond's Tony McGuinness
    Initially inspired by an article written by journalist Paul Harris on Detroit's urban renewal city farms in the Guardian newspaper, the video for Above & Beyond and Gareth Emery pres. OceanLab 'On A Good Day (Metropolis)' captures the song's essential meaning of triumph over adversity through the powerful, visual narrative of the Georgia Street Community Collective and their determination to make a better, brighter life for their local community.
    Since the collapse of a once thriving automotive industry, Detroit has become known as a monument of urban decay with disused warehouses, derelict wasteland and vacant factories peppering the city. Georgia Street Community Collective are one of many organisations harnessing local action and bringing community volunteers together to create positive results -- regenerating wasteland as urban farms and community gardens.

    Not just a video clip, this is a true story:
    In early 2008, Mark Covington was out of a job-a very common problem in his native city of Detroit, where unemployment rates are some of the highest in the country. Large sections of many neighborhoods have been abandoned as people have fled Detroit, looking for jobs and a better life somewhere else. Lots of people have just given up on Detroit, but Mark has a different way of looking at life. As he hung out in the neighborhood surrounding his grandmother's house, Mark couldn't help but notice the mess filling the three vacant lots at the end of his block. But he did more than notice. Looking to do something productive with his time, Covington started clearing out rubbish, where locals had beaten a diagonal path over to the low quality groceries and liquor stores along Harper. At first, he only intended to take on the lot's litter and garbage. But as he cleared away the corner, bigger dreams began to form in his head, and in his heart. Mark became inspired to make a community garden.
    Fast forward just a couple of years, and the path through the garbage and broken glass is now green and growing, filled with vegetables and flowers. And it doesn't stop there. The abandoned store on the corner is now a community center and library where kids can be with their friends in a safe environment. Adult mentors work with neighborhood kids to tend the garden, building relationships as well as providing fresh food in a place where grocery stores rarely sell fresh produce. Events at the garden and center provide everything from backpacks full of school supplies for neighborhood kids to hosting free community dinners where people can get to know one another better as well as enjoy bounty from the garden.

    I come from Youngstown -- we're in a similar place. Little things like this absolutely count. People caring for people is what will make the entire world a better place. Trance isn't about getting people to dance -- it's about unconditional love for humanity as a whole. Love is the only thing that truly matters in this life. Make your life count, and love as many people as you can. :)
