Thank you to Julian Lachniet and other KZbin artists who are taking these wonderful old Animusic videos and bringing them up to modern standards! The coordination of audio and visual are astonishing! Thanks to the Mad Cow for identifying the musical pieces.

[@themadcow8191]

For anyone who didn't know, this animusic is based on Ravel's arrangement of "Pictures at an Exhibition," by Modest Mussorgsky. Specifically, this video features the movements "Promenade," "The Hut on Hen's Legs / The House of Baba Yaga" and "The Bogatyr Gates / The Great Gates of Kiev," in that order. I love the animusic orchestration; I think they did a real good job of preserving the vibe of the original piece while making it slap even harder than it already did. It shows that electronic/jazz/fusion arrangements of classical music can be super effective (translation: it makes me want to go write full techno orchestrations of some 19th century european concertos). If you like this animusic, I'd highly recommend listening to Ravel's version; it's strikingly similar to this.

[@Radionut]

@@tireliani Yeah you’re right sometimes I’m such a pessimist. Let’s hope so

[@swizzarmygrizz]

Very cool. The attention to detail is amazing. All of the linkages look as if they would actually work.

[@ScientistMan96]

This is why my nerd brain is sad no one has done this yet. Everything in this piece is easily done with current robotics. Or, easy as far as robotics is concerned. All the designs are realistic and viable. The firework cannons may be a bit much, but then again people have played the 1812 overture with legit cannons before, so.. Probably isn't really all that expensive either other than the firework cannons and the custom wind instruments (Organ and trumpet things). Normal drum kit, marimba that's been taken apart and mic'd, harp also taken apart and mic'd, one string from an electric bass. All the amrs and fingers are just poles with basic servos, and either rubber tips or a drumstick on the end.

[@swizzarmygrizz]

@@ScientistMan96 oh there are those out there who would have robots replace musicians. Compressor head for example is a 3 piece robot band. I’m sure there are plenty more. Another similar highly mechanized abomination is the ball bearings/marbles amazing music machines. I know a guy who restored a player piano recently. The mechanisms of those are fascinating but to me the huge built in church organs are the pinnacle. They would have three or four people pumping bellows and miles of wires pulling valves, later replaced by solenoids( and more wire). There were even organs that were rigged up like a calliope and had percussion and horn elements. Carillon bells are awesome too. Dozens of huge bells connected to a rack of levers layer out like a piano.

[@davidh.4649]

@@ScientistMan96 the one I have always thought most doable is Acoustic Curves. Nothing in that really complex. The drums are straightforward enough. The only thing would be the opening part with the plucked strings. The ones in the animation are just open strings. You'd not get a lot of sound out of those without a sounding board. The the struck strings that follow are easy enough, though again a sounding board. And a way more robust frame to support the strings under tension. What's shown wouldn't be strong enough.

[@absalomdraconis]

​@@davidh.4649 : Yeah, the actual animusic instruments aren't structurally practical. Interesting though, beyond just folks like Wintergarten, _Intel_ (of computer fame) produced an equivalent to the Pipe Dream instrument that actually worked. You can find video of it on KZbin.

[@SpiderlordGanta]

This is my second favorite of them all!. I just so many sounds that work well together with the organ, drums sync super well together with the trumpets, then the second that play was always my favorite to listen for the maribama tune. Then the lazer synth at the end.

[@samuraiMOURS]

The trumpets are also trombones.

[@jeremytoney9367]

I’ve been listening to music for 35 years and I have to say this is some of the best music that I’ve ever heard. The people who made it are absolutely amazing and I wish they would make 100 new videos and put them out there for people to see because they are some of the best videos I’ve ever seen or even heard of. I’ve been told by people that this music is bad because of one or another of the instruments that’s in it but I have found that the combination of instruments allows you to hear everything and the nuances in the music can all be heard. I’ve listened to many different genres of music and this particular type of music allows you to hear every single instrument in the band that is playing. When I listen to music this is the type that I love to listen to it because it doesn’t contain anything that would be detrimental to the power and the pathos of this music! For a person who does vocal soloist very well I have to say that if words were to be developed for this music I would gladly sing them along with myself and the group I would be proud to put my voice to the music!

[@vinesthemonkey]

it's an arrangement of Pictures at an Exhibition by Mussorgsky

[@misterakt]

[@cccalll]

Even though this is posted on KZbin,I’m glad I purchased this animusic cd 10 yrs ago for my collection!😊 This was playing on a tv set at circuit city and I love it!

[@tdgtto]

As a guy who is a pipe organ nerd, I like how the lasers STRAIGHT UP come out from the fipples (the side holes in the pipe) of each pipe, and the pipes too rise when it's being played. Plus there's the really thin pipes which I have no clue why. They don't have a console, nor pipe chamber (that's why the flute and clarinet pipes appear in the main organ). Instead, they have a bellow instead of a key (plus, no stops at all!) I mean I like their interpretation of the organ. (sorry if I got kinda carried away)

My parents first showed me the first Animusic, then the second one and therefore this, when I was 3 back in 2007, back when it was still relatively new. Loved every bit of it and with regards to this song in particular, I LOVED that it was based on a real piece because that meant I could go find an orchestral version of it and compare. Also, I could never figure out why, but me and my brother always found the xylophone bits in this hilarious and we'd both laugh our heads off when they appeared.

I remember hearing a version of this song in a Baby Einstein video about Van Goh's arts.

[@HunterPOKE]

After the infamous Starship Groovers found their way to the long-abandoned Harmonic Voltage project, they reclaimed and found the lost transmissions of the last remaining human race. After the last humans reconciled with the funkbots of space, they deemed that civilisation for all kind would be restored in this magical piece. The first part sung about the celebration of humanity being restored. The second part sung about how the bots travelled far and wide to find the source of the transmissions. The third part sung about the victory that the bots and humanity had deemed. For a change, things weren't so bad after all. Society could rejoice in the now-restored world of Earth once again.
