Animusic: I Love This Computer Generated Musical Video Adventure!

What's so good about this musical DVD?
I almost cannot explain how passionate I am about the Animusic video. Maybe it is because it brings me back to the rock concerts I attended in the 70s and 80s, in my youth. Much of the music has a heavy beat, with lots of guitar and drum action, reminiscent, of say, Led Zeppelin or Pink Floyd. Nothing extremely hard, just great music and beat, easy on the ears. However, it's not just that. And, in fact, it's not just rock. Some of the music is more "easy-listening". One piece has a slightly Latin beat. And one extraordinary piece, which focuses on a harp, which I will describe later, is somber, tranquil and reflective, like mood music for meditation or prayer.

Maybe it's the visuals. I simply can't imagine anyone watching this DVD and not appreciating the unique special effects and stunning visual presentation of this computer-generated concert. Dozens of colorful drums that are played by gears and conveyor belts in a huge factory. Wind instruments played by an organ-like arrangement of pipes that spit out steam which each note. Gourgeous chimes and gongs. Cellos and violins. Hundreds of wide-mouth pipes that spurt out ball-bearings. The ball-bearings stream through the air, creating a beautiful arc, then hitting a series of strings, with timing that is perfectly synchronized with the plunk-plunk-plunk of the music. Electric towers that emit a lacy cloud of smoke. Dozens of huge speakers lining a wall, amidst electronic sound analyzers. While you are watching this, you will no doubt wonder, "How did they make this?"
