It appears I'm somewhat early. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your musical stepper motor videos. They always put a smile on my face.
It's time for you to set up a Spotify creator account. You've got something real here, consistently, and it fits into the retro/pixel genre target demographic perfectly.
Every song has a finite number of notes and a finite length. So every song fills your condition after it's looped through enough connected iterations. And very easy to write one - although it wouldn't be what most people call a "song" or "music". Finding the shortest song which still sounds good would be the tricky problem.
@@pwnmeisterage you can change direction. I think any song should be able to be coded to start and end at any position wanted so long as each motor gets used in the song at least once
Some people simply have too much time on their hands, but as a very time poor person I'm glad about that. Otherwise we wouldn't get moments of brilliance like this.
I just got recommended the mii video before this, saw a comment requesting this, checked your channel to find out you have uploaded it just a few hrs ago. Bless
Absolutely gorgeous. Sounds exactly like 8-but music and the supporting tune sounds exactly like the supporting tune from any city song from Pokémon gold/silver/crystal
Only someone as cool as this person would put a thingiverse link for the 3D printed object in the video. Love your videos! I hope you keep making more!
No idea what a stepper motor is, but thank you for showing me! Congrats on getting on the creator on the rise thing! May you find favor with the algorithm.

Oh look at how many views you've got in this one, congratulations! Man I was blown away by how many views (15,766) and comments (169) in only 20 hours after posting this video, in comparison to the previous videos, they barely reached 7 comments and a few hundred views after days or even weeks since posting, I said your channel was going to grow. Congratulations! Keep sending well known songs because people often hear them and like them, so eventually they are going to see your channel. Here are some songs you may put in your channel that I'd like to see and that would blow up: MacGyver theme song, Super Mario theme, Angry Birds and Bad Piggies themes, Pirates of the Caribbean theme, Sweet Dreams, Axel F, The Typewriter, Terraria Overworld Day, Drunken Sailor and One Winged Angel (From Final Fantasy VII), (I guess I forgot some, but I'll put them later.). Again congratulations! May your channel grow more and more! Thank you for your wonderful videos!
My new RUclips account, hadn’t watched a single portal video or looked it up, or googled anything of it either, get this is here. I am NOT disappointed... I love portal 1 and 2
I think "Cara Mia Addio" would be a more suitable song for this application? Since the ending scene for portal 2 uses turrets to produce the song by moving their "arms" (which is basically the same idea) :D.
Never thought you’d find a song that would “make sense” to be played on stepper motors, but here we are.
Still alive
The other one is mii theme
A lot of 8-bit stuff works great on stepper motors.
Well...you just keep trying 'til you run out of cake
@@IfImCommentingStopMe what cake there never was any cake. It

Having this song performed entirely by machines is somehow perfectly fitting.
GLaDOS approves
Using an acoustic guitar to amplify an electric instrument
oh, *that's* what that was for...
big brain
There's something so fitting with using stepper motors for Glados' songs, I love it c:
Robot=robot
ya...it just seems to work
cuz there are step motors in Aperture
Robotic = gadotic
XD
I read this as Stayin’ Alive and was very confused for a moment... also, you should totally do the turret wife serenade!

I don't know why but I always have a strange feeling connected to this song. I played through the Portal games maybe twice at max but for some reason I get a knot in my gut. Strange...
The lyrics just tell such a great story, it's hard not to react like that when listening to this song
This happened to me as well for literally no
reason at all
right? Only played each game once, but for some reason, this song tells you "this is it, the end, relax now"
And i've never played portal.
I'm on like my 5th playthrough of Portal 2 and I only just completed my first playthrough (I know, I'm late to the party) like 2 weeks ago
This was a triumph
I'm making a note here; "Huge success"
It's hard to overstate
My satisfaction
Aperture Science:
We do what we must
Because we can
For the good of all of us
Except the ones who are dead
But there's no sense crying
Over every mistake
You just keep on trying
Till you run out of cake
And the science gets done
And you make a neat gun
For the people who are
Still alive
I'm not even angry
I'm being so sincere right now
Even though you broke my heart,
And killed me
And tore me to pieces
And threw every piece into a fire
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you
Now, these points of data
Make a beautiful line
And we're out of beta
We're releasing on time
So I'm GLaD I got burned
Think of all the things we learned-
For the people who are
Still alive
Go ahead and leave me
I think I prefer to stay inside
Maybe you'll find someone else
to help you
Maybe Black Mesa
That was a joke. Haha. Fat chance
Anyway, this cake is great
It's so delicious and moist
Look at me still talking
when there's science to do
When I look out there
it makes me GLaD I'm not you
I've experiments to run
There is research to be done
On the people who are
Still alive
And believe me I am Still alive
I'm doing science and I'm Still alive
I feel fantastic and I'm Still alive
While you're dying I'll be Still alive
And when you're dead I will be Still alive
Still alive
Still alive
At last she removed carolin so she never hurt anyone or never put her in potato or feed her to the birds....
I played portal SO many times I remember the whole lyrics
and when you're dying ill be still alive
@@peanut2806 I must admit, I only finished the game once, but I used to listen to this song a lot, so I knew most of the lyrics.
When you get mad at a crappy 3D printer and turn it into something useful.
You do what you must.

@@benjaminmiller3620 oh, I was unaware...
The real problems come out when you don't turn it into something useful but it turns itself. (I still haven't received my pice of cake)
I'm amazed by how good these videos sound
Well, there's a resonance body (the guitar) underneath the stepper motors. It probably wouldn't sound as good without it
@@fisch37 someone out there also used cardboard as their base, it gives it a really rad organ vibe
I just realized that it's on top of a guitar to amplify the sound
A sympathetic idea
@@2adamast ha I don’t even know the meaning of the word!
@@2adamast People, get the awards!
@@webbster1014 a sitar and some older instruments have sympathetic strings that resonate together with the main tune.
maybe a cello will do better?
The fact that this song still gives me chills after this long while being played on steppers speaks volumes about how good it is.
If you’re looking into doing Turret Wife Serenade (as quite a few people have suggested), there’s some good MIDIs of it on Ultimate-Guitar.
Well, this seems oddly appropriate.
IKRRR!?!
@@branban2040 yro'ue right
@M4m4 Lu191 HELL yeah
Well if you aren't wrong then you sure as hell are right
Somewhere deep in the Aperture Science Enrichment Centre GLaDOS just felt happy for the first time in years and is very confused.
I’m waiting for a bass solo from the green. I will literally scream if the green ever gets the melody
The situation was *CALLING* for this song, but Turret Wife Serenade genuinely deserves a stance. Either way, amazing videos!
This sounds fantastic!
I like how you used a guitar as an amplifier
The king returns
thank you for not saying first

This very much is a jam as much as it is a Bop.
It appears I'm somewhat early. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your musical stepper motor videos. They always put a smile on my face.
I am now convinced that the turrets could sing that song with only their actuators.
This tune will never not make me feel all nostalgic. ❤️
Perfect fit for stepper motors. Love the companion cube there too.
It's time for you to set up a Spotify creator account. You've got something real here, consistently, and it fits into the retro/pixel genre target demographic perfectly.
Next task: Find (or write) as song that starts and ends all 4 of them in the 12 o'clock position.

The Cube is a really nice touch.
I'm so Glados you made this. Always a stepper motor in the right direction when it comes to ENTERtainment
You tried too hard. Have a like

Brilliant. I once heard from someone that this wasnt real music. I proceeded to tear them to pieces, and threw every piece, into, a fire.
Only someone as cool as this person would put a thingiverse link for the 3D printed object in the video. Love your videos! I hope you keep making more!
I'm GLaD you picked out the 4 most relevant harmonies :)
This gave me an idea: Companion cube covers for my 3D-printers stepper motors.

Ok, I just found you and subbed to you yesterday, and I just finished portal 1 yersterday
What a coincidence...
This is amazing lol and it fits so well with portal's theme
This is the perfect way to play the perfect song from the perfect game.
Just found your vids, they are amazing! Keep up the great work!
Found your Channel today in the comment suggesting this song from 10 months ago. The timing!
I found this channel a couple weeks ago, scrubbed through the backlog looking for this song. I guess i was just a couple days early
Read the title as staying alive, and thought you had made a fatal error. My ears were confused but not unhappy
It would only be a fatal error if someone died as a consequence!
@@JonS From the deadly neurotoxin!
Rest in peace companion cube 😢
I always feel like I'm gonna cry when I hear this song. Such a beautiful game
such a great and simple song that sounds good on stepper motors.
I swear i could hear “maybe black mesa”
This makes me inexplicably happy.
Thanks, I love it.
reminds me of the music in video games of the 80s . nice job and no computer in sight.:)
Why do I feel so much nostalgia listening to stepper motors
He’s back! Thank you for blessing us with your godly skills.
why does this give me like really strong nostalgic vibes?
imo this is one of the best soundtracks from a game (apart from pigstep, and sweden lol)
Damn you nailed the song perfectly
It's not a channel that makes music with random hardware if it doesn't have "Still Alive". Great video and great music!
THIS WAS A TRIUMPH
IM MAKING A NOTE HERE HUGE SUCCESS
ITS HARD TO ALWAYS STATE MY SATISFACTION

I just found you in my recommended and really love your content! Impressive work!
Portal 2 is my favorite game. Thanks for the content and song!
OMG this is amazing. You MUST do "Want you gone" from Portal 2!!
So there I was... patiently waiting for Yellow to go off!... I was not disappointed!
I would love Old School Runescape's Sea Shanty 2.
It would sit well with these I think. Super excited to see more
it's good to see people are still doing stuff with portal in 2021
We do what we must, because we can... for the good of all us, except the ones who are dead. ... Brilliant :D
Not the slightest bit disappointed. Amazing. Bravo good sir, bravo.
Ah yess, now I know where does that Io's voice come from,
Guys, that Io action figure next to the motors needs more recognition haha
I don't remember how I got here but I won't complain
nice vid :)
You need to do the Turret Wife Serenade. The turrets sing by moving their stepper motors and are correctly animated in doing such.

That Companion Cube is so adorable, I just want to throw it into an incinerator! ♥♥
*Aperture Science Emergency Intelligence Incinerator
This gets a thumbs up before I even watch the video. Awesome subject matter.
just throwing my hat into the ring saying to please please please do "Turret Wife Seranade"
and if you're feeling risqué you should do Cara Mia Addio
My new RUclips account, hadn’t watched a single portal video or looked it up, or googled anything of it either, get this is here. I am NOT disappointed... I love portal 1 and 2
I can never get my steppers to sound this good!
This feels like some old school RUclips stuff it’s dope 👍🏼
You can almost see the Companion Cube dancing from the vibrations 😂
I had to stick it down otherwise it wandered away
@@spaceyman398 where did you get your companion cube? 🤔❤️
The beeping sounds I just so satisfying
Like the game itself, this is one of those videos you want to play again, and again, and again :D
Now I want to try and build one too
Now that is what I call, quality and creative musi.
THE CAKE IS A LIE 🎂
*she's watching you*
Making this video was a triumph on your part! It's hard to overstate my satisfaction!
We need another Portal Game.
The red centered cube looks cool
Singing to myself to the sound of stepper motors...maybe I am a test subject.
This is one of the best ones
I now ambitiously await for "want you gone" from portal 2
Me now 30 years old singing this allong Hahaha THats what life is about !
I think "Cara Mia Addio" would be a more suitable song for this application? Since the ending scene for portal 2 uses turrets to produce the song by moving their "arms" (which is basically the same idea) :D.
Honestly, I'd love to see basic 707/808/909/whatever drum sounds on stepper motors.
more portal music! ”I AM NOT A MORON!” is such a cool song from the game!
I want canon rock on this! :D
After this I had no other choice but to subscribe.
