Amon Tobin - Keep Your Distance

Footage from Hardware (also known as M.A.R.K. 13), a post-apocalyptic science-fiction horror film from 1990, set to Amon Tobin's "Keep Your Distance" (Foley Room).
NOTE: I was just fooling around in Sony Vegas without really knowing the software so there's more than a few editing goofs - especially @ 00:58, a few frames of opening credits that I neglected to cut. I must've blinked and missed it... Don't take it too seriously..
FINAL NOTE: The video is kind of ruined now with the widescreen format. I might redo it. Probably not.

[@MrWiskytangofoxtrot]

I'm watching this in 10,000 BC on my iStone.

[@RhysWW1]

An absolute masterpiece of combining music and film! It rocks my world!

[@CegeRoles]

A lot of the instrumentation here reminds me of Chaos Theory.

[@DruneMusic]

I've always thought the same about this track. It belongs in that same subrealm of his music.

[@Da_maul]

probably because the artist composed the Splinter Cell Chaos Theory soundtrack

[@spartacus8661]

he used/explored part of the same platform on both albums

[@RaabBlog]

I really want to learn how to produce at this level of mastery.

[@witchleaf]

Me too!

[@Abstraiit]

yeahh...

[@goustanbodin5640]

Uncompromising passionate work !

[@bubbysitch]

Mark Mattox He knows how to work a sample. Keep at it and don't neglect your sampler! ;)

[@antischwagger]

Mark Mattox patience to sit and stir with a lot of ugly noises until it turns to rich creamy ear butter.

[@carolynjnewman546]

Amon Tobin. 3 decades of love and respect to your sampling /electronic philharmonics - received from the most acute reception of sound which I hold - thank you and sincerely, Carly Newman - Cape Town, RSA

[@XxxkenzaxxX]

God, Amon Tobin is sick. I love him. Amazing.

[@dylancook3282]

This guy was social distancing before it was cool

[@PubliusRutiliusLupus]

This song is transcendental. And the footage matches so well!

[@cate725]

This guy - Amon Tobin - his music is amazing. Just discovered it through the Lincoln car commercial with Matthew McConaghey, of all things. The music on that ad is "Easy Muffin".

[@luciencron6655]

He is very amazing. :)

[@matthewrogers8416]

I flipped the first time I heard/saw that commercial; I always thought he never got the appreciation he deserved, and to hear it in such a mainstream place was exciting!

[@doginhoodie5519]

Have you played Chaos Theory? His music made that game what it was, and you can hear his influence on the splinter cell soundtracks that followed it.

[@matthewrogers8416]

I did not, but I heard the soundtrack!

[@DimiusG]

First heard that tune easy muffin back on old school Toonami, been a fan ever since.

[@Cherabreena]

Holy sh....! Words can't begin to deescribe that awesome feeling I get from this thrilling piece of beauty!

[@Ryotphoenixwing]

Amon Tobin's music... is greater than slice bread

[@Souliban]

Perfect footage for this song, or perfect song for this footage, what ever Trevor. AMON-The Man- TOBIN

[@greensunshine2008]

amon tobins's music is pure sound scape. wonderfully unique, genre original that many try to mimic.

[@S3fb]

this is so atmospheric.

[@robynstopped]

Thank you for posting. This movie is a gem and the music is awesome!

[@elecheadmatt]

you know i normally hate when people cut together little music videos for songs on youtube, but this was very well edited and the song is asskicking. great job.

[@blksunst]

That was such an incredible production. Thank you!

[@LiveLoverSubhrajyoti]

Part from 3:43 to end makes me melt in ecstacy, everytime..

[@Chameleonardodavinci]

Wish it would juuuust go on for just a bit longer though. The track is so close to being perfect.... I wish someone would make a little extended edit of that bit, then I'd be in heaven

[@foundati0n]

The anxiety fades and hopefulness rises, even if for just a brief moment. The best thing is that it wouldnt be that good or feel so precious if it wasnt for the lengthy build up.

[@sarahgwenable]

Amon made my way. I just love this track! GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@heatscore762]

Awesome!! Amon Tobin rules!!!...great editing...

[@figothecat]

the video has so much swagger about it and its so menacing.. the guy is an artist beyond his craft.

[@leomann22]

The man simply transcends mere everyday awesomeness.

[@BeardedGinger]

i love this song and vid!! soo relaxing and moving at the same time... listen to it at work all the time....

[@MrFunky108]

This is one trippy, badass video!

[@BRUNOAZIZ]

from Hardware movie....sick early 90`s sci fi

[@smartbart015]

Best title for a song during this coronacrisis

[@neoaxd.]

Awesome video, it really fits with Amon's style.

[@YasumotoUS]

While not an A+ film, it was an acceptable low-budget scifi production from the early 90's. Yeah, this video inspired me to watch the film as well. And recently one of the major DVD-by-mail services made the title available via streaming in the U.S.A. Kudos to EndemicAnomalies for a great production.

[@kOrOne79]

What a great idea to use this movie as footage. I haven't seen M.A.R.K. 13 since it's release on video almost 20 years ago, but I still remember so much of it. Freaked the shit out of me as a kid.

[@TheMonkeyGrinder]

Can't believe I haven't bought this album yet...doing it now. Good choice of visuals by the way.

[@MatthewAlexander1ManSineWave]

This is awesome stuff!

[@piiri]

Love what you've done. Those 'editing goofs' are quite artistic and even the black area around the picture, caused (probably) by youtube, gives it volume rather than ruining it. I really enjoyed it and honestly thought this was the official video to the track before reading your description a few months later. Genious!

[@FroggyVids]

This should've been the original theme of Dune...

[@bobwaht]

Amon Tobin; instantly turn your everyday life into a movie.

[@NevinRiley]

I like the editing "goofs", they give a certain flare of video accident that would possibly come of the haste resulting from constant post-apocalyptic threat!

[@LogicKidroy]

The Flashing of the credits works for me personally, and the small screen draws you into the video and into the music better, this song and this video were meant to be together, nice job and wicked song.

[@flamer2001]

Gran turismo 6 FTW!!!

[@dan32112315]

most best unknown artist!

[@cirnealadragos8219]

Epic man, just epic :D

[@trevorhenderson]

man you did a really good job! I never saw the movie and thought it was the video!

[@FatPlus1]

I really like this video, it fits nicely to the tune!

[@michaelhaydenbell]

Never seen the film. If I hadn't read the description I would've totally thought that was the actual music video. Kudos. Imagery fits the music perfect.

[@cnoeroman]

"Keep your distance" proper quarintine song

[@vexx44]

This makes Hardware MARK 13 look like a much better movie than it actually is

[@marquis420]

great job man now i gotta watch the movie

[@yaaancey]

good god this is amazing

[@YusefOtesh8880]

@XenoGenome You took the words right out of my mouth. Thank You.

[@Chinieves]

Amon es un genio, me encantan sus ritmos y la fluidez en la que te lleva con su música, te hace sentir en un verdadero viaje.

[@Aevx]

Even though tobin only released two official music videos, this beats both and any other fanmade one. GREAT WORK!

[@YasumotoUS]

Fantastic pairing of Tobin with a film that I now plan on checking out.

[@SwaggerLikeUz]

Awesome upload!

[@learrus]

This reminds me of my life

[@bloepa]

The first time I heard this, I knew it was something special!

[@privatek79]

I like the music + the video u edited... Good Job!

[@badegg3210]

I always dug Hardware, and I think you've done it justice here - cheers! It's an important thing, choosing appropriate music to go with the imagery, and it can make or break a movie's overall atmosphere. If I was a movie director I think choosing a cool soundtrack would be one of my favorite jobs!

[@00033]

THANK YOU SPLINTERCELL

[@Cosmozaure]

Perfect thing.

[@UstadBandDJ]

MANO!! que track foda !!! cabulozo !!!! esses timpanos e essa hambiencia futurista é fenomenal !!!!!!

[@ChaosNuke666]

Best of the best!

[@iiceman14]

this is the kinda music thats playin before the shit hits the fan

[@GymBossAniki]

If pandora tomorow got a full remake, i could imagine them paying the license needed to put this song on the final level.

[@pentexsucks43]

If only it got the love it deserves. It seems like the most neglected, least accessible release to own for modern hardware in the whole series.

[@towermoss]

brilliant, i can't believe i haven't heard of the film

[@hugo11819]

beautiful footage.

[@Otiomaster]

mano !!! quem som é esse !!!!! animal cabulozo !!!! isso é que é uma track foda de som diferente e criativo !!! MASTER TRACK !!!

[@ResskCSF]

I blew out my headphones on this song :( great music and video too!

[@buttondiet]

perfect vid, perfect tune, perfect film.

[@BethLaura123x]

What film is it??

[@alexnovikov102]

Абсолютный гений электронной музыки

[@Pinko-Diamond]

Great, song, and I am def checkin out this movie now!

[@VoxPopuIi]

Amon Tobin cured my tinnitus.

[@naysebtc]

phat video man, it complements the song perfectly

[@bobwilson7684]

March 2020 ----- keep your distance

[@pquijal]

I actually like the credit slip. It works with the music and goes with the flash cut @ 1:11. Neat. By way of Amon Tobin and an amateur videoist, I've discovered a new scifi film to watch that I didn't know existed.

[@H223Tommy]

Amon to that!

[@flous666]

Great job with the clip ot really suits well to the song

[@BigEvan96]

amon tobin is godly

[@NapalmSky99]

nice work :)

[@fernandopinto5464]

Gran Turismo 6 brought me here

[@attack3]

your mother brought me here

[@purenatural5736]

Me too, and in 2020 haha

[@parsiwalus]

jak zwykle Amon Tobin najlepszy w pełnej krasie :) i oczywiście znikoma część ludzi z Polski go słucha, a szkoda ..

[@parsiwalus]

6 lat później dalej tego słucham

[@gdanijel2]

f.....g awsome!

[@buttondiet]

Listening to this makes me picture a dark swamp and a semi submerged crocodile slowly creeping up on an unsuspecting victim.

[@eglbc]

This song makes me feel so distant from everything, when i played it i was transported to a far off desert, and when i got there, some asshole film crew got in my way as i traversed the post apocalyptic landscape in search of a better life.

[@TheBroDotTV]

Looks like a cool movie ... might just have to check it out!!

[@kaylaisnothere4397]

How is this production even fucking possible

[@sinnpresionhandcraft8052]

BRUTAL|||

[@crespo100]

ninja tune for life...

[@MACtic1]

Revisiting it in 2020. Damn I'm old.

[@spartacus8661]

Matityah his new album release is streaming tonight along with 20/20 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZq7mWNmfd6GhKM

[@Osolenej]

3:40+ love that part. Great song !

[@adokenk3nnbasil]

i like this :)

[@MrSheepboy]

Loving the gas mask bong! No wonder he keeps checkin his compass to see if he's still going the right way =P

[@darling_danke_schoen]

You know... I think Amon Tobin deserves a category of his own.... he's up there with Aphex Twin and Coldcut (their older stuff anywho...) We should call it soundtrack-hop...

[@roryjeson]

I like the outro that creeps in...

[@AvanWijnsberge]

nice gasmask man!! love the vid.. xD

[@ApasheOfficial]

Here cuz of social distancing due to the corona shit show. Forgot how cool this tune is.

[@milenalaszkowska896]

Same here

[@Javierm0n0]

genius!

[@MrMushroom123]

i could listen to the part on 4:07 in an infinite loop

[@rmxrls]

Best part for sure

[@Yeahhoee]

how f**** sick is that tune at the ender part? he is Jesus man!

[@robertsmith1762]

Melhor música do Amon

[@subflowloge06]

when the sands blowin away from the eye...

[@blaeks]

Bang. Mastery.

[@MegaCnlSanders]

I'ts strange that bot amon's music which already gives me a sort of, no way some one else had that idea feeling, would lead me to find a movie that gives me pretty much the same feeling.

[@Tanguae]

MegaCnlSanders right

[@Tanguae]

MegaCnlSanders 3years 2 late?

[@SPAMLANWALKER]

Amon Tobin and Carl Mccoy on the same video = WIN.
