Maybe I’m just high but I feel like this was such a cool way to get kids to hear the different individual parts that make up the song and understand how it all comes together
No man you're totally right! There's a reason that even the trouble-making and unfocused kids wouldn't be able to look away when the the cool music teacher put this on, THIS is how you get kids into music!
Back in elementary school we used to listen to this in art class on free days. Future Retro was the class favorite. Man this brings back some memories.
If you think about it "Future Retro" means "Thing made today that people in the future will remember fondly"... Well, we're in the future and Animusic is now retro
Same. Everyone in my class would beg my music teacher to play that one over and over. And of course as kids we would all "call" which instrument that we were going to be throughout the song
Fun fact, the producers of this small franchise made sure the animation was as accurate as possible to the sound of the notes...so not only is this already an awesome franchise bc of the music and animation, but the accuracy as well
It's not really animated in the traditional sense. It animates itself based on a midi and it picks from a huge pool of assets to make it work. Dude who made this is an absolute genius. Was supposed to release the software, but never did.
As much as I would have loved to see the whole original intro of everything turning on, this and all of the remasters are amazing. Thank you very much Julian!
The composers were like "Dude, let's make the most memorable music of the 2000's." A pair of animators at the table next to them overheard and were like "Dude, why don't we make the most memorable music videos too while we're at it?" Thus, Animusic was born.
I have all the Animusic DVDs and this is probably one of my most favorites. I love that kinda 80's sounding rock/metal of this plus those lasers are just so friggan cool. The first time I've seen any Animusic was seeing "Space Groove" from Animusic 2 being demonstrated on a home theater setup that was probably north of $100K, and holy crap, was that friggan incredible! Completely blew me away, and that was back in 2005. Of course, I immediately had to get the Animusic DVDs and try it out on my own HT setup. Even at 53 now, this still totally blows me away and also neat seeing some others attempting to create their own Animusic-like videos. Shame we will probably never see an Animusic 3, though.
If you want to see an incredible fanmade Animusic, check out Lasers Lights and Music! Not only have they done their own original stuff, they're remastering the entirety of the original Animusic by hand.
I used to watch this as a little kid and I was OBSESSED. I would play it really loud and my older sisters would go insane. They hated it. Looking back with the stuff I do now, I understand why I liked it then. Thanks for the memories animusic!
That guitar is so good. It’s so Uncanny, almost sounds like a real guitar but not. Even the pinch harmonics, string mutes and other characteristics are there
@@spongegobler3449 All of the motion of the instruments was dynamically generated from an input MIDI file, meaning that everything you're seeing in the video is not only accurate to the music being played, but theoretically they could've made it play an entirely different song just by changing out that MIDI file.
The triple necked guitar, the pan flutes, and the choir lights have always been my most favorite ones. And also the choir lights really do look like street lights. And it sucks that we never see the biggest choir light do anything.
salvaging an old comment from another upload of this song. The synth represented by the lasers is from the Roland D-70, and the patch is called "Spit Brass"
FINALLY!!! Some capable enthusiast made a good upscale of the mediocre quality Animusic 1 DVD Thank you so much to bring this Classic into the HD quality age 👏
This is the first song that comes to mind every time I hear the word "powerchord". Like, everybody has their own "oh the powerchord one" song, y'know, like something from Megadeth or Metallica, but for me it's this, no contest
I have seen this since I was 2 and I am now 12 and it is still the best thing I have and will ever see in my life. Animusic will always be in my heart forever. ❤
YES MAN! I'm looking forward to the other parts and in better quality. #HYPE ‼Please share the videos of Animusik properly so that even more "see" this beautiful music!‼
I was introduced to this in math class, My Teacher didn't have any material for the day & was like "I'll put on a movie for ya'll" And it happened to be Animusic. I to this day thank him for exposing me to such a thing. :) Also the Guitar rift at 3:37 gave me chills!
Sounds soooooo cool! I will be sad if animistic is gone, although, it will never happen! In my music classes, my teacher played this song, it literally changed my whole life! I used to hate all music, now, music is my life!
My old elementary school music teacher would play these and it was always the highlight of my day Seeing these now makes me remember that place, it's very bittersweet.
So, in the DnD game I run, my players were going to participate in a game of 'Gnoll Ball'. Essentially American Football crossed with Rugby and Blood Bowl. I played this music while reading off a little pre-written sports announcer-style intro for the game. A couple of the players actually asked me to play this track again during the game.
Now,if you put Mozart's Eine kline nachmusic,or Bach's Fugues to that treatment,boy what would turn out! Consider that,in their day,those composers were radicals,and add Chopin,Hayden,Mahler,et.al,the repertory only gets better!! Thanks for the uplift of the day!! Thanks again!! 😊!
I remember my mum used to play this with a CD on the TV when I was a kid, I believe we still have it and it used to be my grandfather's whom I never got to meet because he sadly passed away when I was too young. But it just occurred to me now all these years later. It is weirdly nostalgic for me ahahah, another reason why my personality is weird! And also makes me connect with him a bit to love something he did too
Это просто потрясающе! Как подумаю, сколько труда в этот видеоряд вложено… А нет ли в природе студийного альбома в хорошем качестве? Многие треки прям зашли, хочу их в свою фонотеку…
There were dvds available at one point, however now they will be collectors items so they could be very expensive. The sound quality isn’t that high compared to a proper album.
@@ebi_tempura 1. I was able to find a replacement copy of Animusic 1 in perfect condition at a Goodwill recently. Finding DVDs may be harder now, but they're not very expensive like you said. 2. From the (admittedly rushed) research I did, DVD quality audio meets and exceeds CD quality.
In August 2019, the Animusic website was briefly taken down and replaced by a generic template with a small explanation that the site is undergoing a redesign. According to the New York State Division of Corporations, State Records, and UCC, Animusic is still an active domestic limited liability company and is registered to an address in Cortland, New York. The status of Wayne Lytle is publicly unknown, however, the Cortland property that the limited liability company is registered under has been sold as of November, 2021
