Starship Groove (Animusic) - Remastered 4K 60FPS

[@Obstagoon862]

I love how the red robot puts its hands in the air when it's not playing.

[@sarahsaenger1959]

Just vibing

[@orionharmon6017]

Yeah it does that everytime.

[@lindaminton3820]

"In the air" Its in space, theres no *air* because its a vacum. So you could say "puts arms up"

[@orionharmon6017]

[@jupie1471]

I love the odd signature used in this song. It's not common to hear anything other than 3/4 and 4/4, so hearing this 7/4 groove was honestly bliss

[@IweyoL]

You just reminded me of Dave Brubeck’s Unsquare Dance, kzbin.info/www/bejne/laqoqaqhhr6WppI. It’s cool. I love all the variations in the percussion! In this one, kzbin.info/www/bejne/opPHdq2Im8eYfpY, you can hear the drummer at the end kind of laughing saying “Yeah”, being glad to have gotten through it. 🙂

[@silhouettoofaman2935]

You'll find this odd time signature, and many others like it, in most of Animusic's discography. Resonant Chamber, Drum Machine, Gyro Drums, Cathedral Pictures, just to name a few!

[@IweyoL]

I like the videos, but I’ll have to pay closer attention to the time signatures (I’m literate, sort of, but not particularly adept - it doesn’t come naturally to me 🙂).

[@LordHonkInc]

This'll always be a classic. I don't know if it's the unusual time signature, the robo-sunglasses, the fact that redbot's just jiving in the background, or the fact that apparently even robots can't have a percussion section without a cowbell. Simply incredible

[@vtpanda]

Crap, I'd never noticed the weird time signature. It's totally in seven. It's funny things you don't notice until they're pointed out.

That would actually be worth exploring simply from a technical perspective, to actually have every instrument in the animation produce its sound at a specific point in a 3D space and have it sound different from different angles. Maybe in Animusic 3 fingers crossed?

[@Turtle-Melon]

I love how much personality the red robot has

[@Wuuj_]

Animusic, especially with the slightly more recognizable individual instrumentalists work because all of them have been given very distinct and subtle flavors of personality to their animation. Something that was most certainly deliberately done. Blue is the chill experienced one, with only his continual bobbing. Red is the vibiest hypeman with slightly more exaggerated bobbing and ofc, his arms. The twins seem like they're swagging with no-look hits on the percussion. The "harpist" is focused with his head-banging to the melody. It's all purposeful and well executed personality, still fucking love it in 2023.

[@sorcererCermet]

starship groove is such a heavy hitter. couldnt have been a cooler way to bring the project back. mark my words if i ever win the lottery im fully funding animusic 3. i understand there was the kickstarter debacle, but man id just give wayne lyttle whatever he needed to get 3 done

they really ARE groovin! look at the red dude! this is one of my favourite pieces in 7/4!!

[@ParkersPlayground]

I use to watch the Animusic short films all the time on dvd back when I was a not even 10 years old back when it first came out, and watching it now in 4K 60fps as an adult, I’m even more blown away than I was back then. Animusic I&II will forever hold a special place in my heart, and even III never gets made, I can still experience the first two, and that makes me happy

The dvd menu for Animusic 2 with the interactive version of this song was absolutely fire. Still probably one of the best dvd menus ever.

[@jtg55]

For the longest time, I thought that the pillars of light on the sides of the two keyboards had to be some kinda instrument that I couldn't hear. They are instruments - they're metronomes, playing to keep the rhythm of the song, which is in 7/4 time.
