Raymond Scott - Portofino 2

[@nikhilraut7761]

Hearing this beautiful music reminds me of my good old days of my childhood when there is no worry no anxiety nothing to lose and only be happyyy ever after the whole life..............

[@Penguin_of_Death]

The power of the internet...I heard this in a 2007 BBC documentary about the Windscale Nuclear Power Station accident in the UK in 1957....I thought there's absolutely no chance I'll be able to identify who it's by or what it's called... 10 minutes later and here I am...lovely piece of music, very unusual feel to it...

[@animesis]

if you ever read this, watch kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXrPp5h5Zr9opdk these nuclear startups with this music, its very eerie yet beautiful

[@nandinibasu6365]

hypnotic music...and got to hear it in 'The Century of the Self'' for the first time...love it

[@tvst5210]

What does that even mean?

[@DaResetButton]

@@tvst5210 what does what mean?

[@prettyfunbird]

@@tvst5210 'The Century of the Self' is a documentary series by Adam Curtis that features this song.

[@cream5590]

Same lol.

[@thomase13]

I've been seeking this for years - so happy I've found it!

[@GinandGrapefruit]

I found out about Mr Scott when I was in High School. I stumbled upon him while searching for songs to sample on KZbin. He changed my perspective on what a composer could be.

[@arielkantor1081]

so so beautiful. it brings back pieces of my most nostalgic childhood moments in only two minutes. with that said still cant actually put the feeling into words

[@justderpy3043]

Sounds like something you’ll find in a sci-fi romantic movie. Love this!

[@oscilatordreaming]

i can't say it better

[@amandastill5124]

What about some kind of horror movie as well?

[@miseendriste6337]

@@amandastill5124 No ew stop ruining the vibes

[@amandastill5124]

@@miseendriste6337 It feels like something from a horror film. Sorry I ruined your vibe.

[@deg8517]

​@@amandastill5124 it really doesn't. it's an old song so the audio isn't the best, but otherwise it's beautiful. Hate when people decide to assign creepy vibes to things not meant to be creepy at all. It's just lazy at this point.

[@steadmanuhlich6734]

So bizarre, in a beautiful way. Inventive, creative, and cutting edge at the time.

[@scitsalcoryp]

Even better than the first part...like some love song from an electronic world that doesn't exist............. really kind of beautiful . This man was truly a genius .

[@dynamicdragoness]

Thank goodness I found this again! I kept hearing it in an tv commercial and it drove me insane because it sounded so familiar. I just happen to find out I had this song hiding in one of my playlist while looking for another song.

[@dixitzabc]

Glad I found this. Heard it on an Adam Curtis documentary and it just wouldn't stop playing in the head.

[@divyajnana]

Scott was one of those mad geniuses and the first in electronica. Powerhouse and The Penguin from 1937 and 1938 are amazing.

[@paramecium9509]

This made the impact of the century of self so much greater in my memory

[@211Anon]

So otherworldly...fantastic.

[@Darthlightskin]

I finally found this eargasm

[@paramecium9509]

Can’t stop revisiting this song

[@-fat]

Man, this comment section is like a museum. Portofino 2 sounds more melancholy while Portofino 1 sounds actually happy.. they still all sound very good to me

[@scitsalcoryp]

oh goodness...perhaaps this is the most beautiful song ever

[@valyusha98]

Century of the Self!!! Lovely little piece of music. Portofino 1 is incredible as well

[@scitsalcoryp]

REALLY is good to solve dry eye syndrome....and makes me kind of depressed . Yet I really love it . Beauty

[@calebshockency2083]

I play this music full blast to drown out the screams from my basement. Works like a charm.

[@351cleavland]

I thought I was the only one. FYI-it also makes blood gurgling not as tiresome to listen to.

[@M3urs]

Avec Raymond Scott, la musique électronique est pleine de chaleur et d'optimisme. ça fais du bien

[@Dariuz001]

Wow, I've been looking for this for so long. Today I heard Sleepy Time and it really reminded me of this and sure enough, it was the same artist! Thanks for uploading.

[@Kwibogavagai]

J'adore Raymond Scott.

[@tek8812]

Who has come from the documentary 'The Century of the Self'?

[@benthejrporter]

Me.

[@Tensilespark]

Me too

[@joshsingleton576]

No but thank you for the recommendation

[@IsThereAnyMore]

yes

[@l4nternz]

such an excellent choice of music for exploring the new century. Especially as it focuses on consumerism, and Raymond Scott very much made music for commercial purposes. Still hauntingly beautiful music though

[@CziffraTheThird]

I hear Brahms in this...wow! Above and beyond!..it makes me want to cry!

[@HeroT]

I’ve heard this before somewhere from my childhood but idk from where!!

[@ghazi2392]

This sounds like what angels listen to when they have an acid trip.

[@scitsalcoryp]

Angels do not need to do acid haha

[@DavidFick]

@Scarlatti2007 Most definitely. I love how this music is initially used to underscore Freud walking in his backyard in the snowy winter. . . the next thing you see is Freud rather aggressively throwing a lit cigar or cigarette onto the pavement (and Adam Curtis is talking about something horrifying about the human psyche whilst the Scott has been faded out and the antithesis of Scott (evil-sounding mid-century Darmstadtian stuffen) has infested what had begun so innocently.

[@alexpowers2899]

Well done, my man

[@carlosbravo9072]

Ella tenía su cabeza en mi pecho, el cuarto era oscuro y comenzo a sonar esta hermosa canción. Te juro que me sentí en un sueño, me sentí en lsd, hipnotizado

[@scitsalcoryp]

A song for the ages

[@budgie6821]

One of Dan Deacon's great inspirations

[@anne80s2]

beautiful thanks for share this!

[@scitsalcoryp]

The low note is SO funky

[@neogeo53]

I would love this to be on a 78 record

[@deejdeckard2853]

This sounds like something playing in a shopping mall during The Purge.

[@dreydenransom2313]

Never thought I'd find this

[@scitsalcoryp]

Truly beautiful

[@whotfckisjaqui]

07/06/2022 hoy es mi cumple solo quiero recordar q a mis 18 escuchaba esta canción, m hace sentir bien y en paz!

[@TalaNimri]

Happy birthday ✨

[@AcidDreaming]

It's caressing my ear drums...

[@BIGINSF]

Brilliant!!

[@frankd8598]

Superbe ambiance.

[@LukeVaughn__]

This sounds like Jean Jacques Perrey music and I love it

[@BucketCapacity]

This feels like an Adult Swim bump.

[@RaymondScottArchives]

BucketCapacity That's because Adult Swim uses this tune often.

[@finallyanime]

well it was made in 2000 so most def aside from the sound. spot on, could totally see that. Napoleon Dynamite 2 soooo yessss

[@tim3493]

Thanks Chloe!

[@cheerio4000]

[@luigiproiettizaccaria4378]
