    similar to the original charleston dance video dubbed with daft punk's "around the world", except al and leon are dancing in sync with the beat.
    original videos from here: • Charleston -- Original...
    and
    • charleston style
    i'm not sure what the meter is for the charleston dance.. i just assumed it's 4:4. not that i had a choice, since i was using "around the world". but i think this is the cause of a couple inconsistencies that i haven't fully figured out yet (or maybe i just can't count correctly). for example:
    1. when the second guy comes out to dance, he starts on the 9th bar of the original song. so i made sure the 9th bar of "around the world" began when his dance began. but nine bars earlier in "around the world" does not correspond with nine bars earlier in the original song.. that's why the video starts out silent for a couple beats.
    2. when the first guy comes back, his knees come together on the 4th beat in the original song.. but with "around the world", they come together on the first beat.
    3. not all parts seem 100% synced. but watch to the end and you'll see that it is, in fact, synced overall.
    figured out the timing of their dancing.. reconciled the difference between it and "around the world" by pitch shifting the song to match it, then dubbing it with the video and doing an assumefps() to a faster speed and resampling the audio afterwards.

    not sure if anyone has talkjed about phrase lengths etc, but a lot if vernacular jazz has a mixture of 6 count and 8 count steps so could be that? Or if the musicians were playing a blues form song it would be 12 bar (3x8s) form so that would make the 8 bar (2x8s) form of around the world not fit. the original song may not be a standard form either :) hence the 9 bar intro.

    You always know a good dancer when it seems effortless...

    Unreal how the roots of 50% of modern dancing can be found in the 1920's

    In remembrance of Daft Punk’s 28 years of music, I wanna let y’all know this is my favorite unofficial music video of theirs.

    holy shit. ive already watched this at least 10 times before. this time i noticed elements of influence for at least 5 modern dances; 80's hip hop, melbourne/hardstyle shuffle, jumpstyle, THE ROBOT, the spongebob which is used in tons of dance types. too sick

    Al Minns and Leon James were dancers in the 1930s and early 1940s with a group called Whitey's Lindy Hoppers up at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem (torn down in 1958). In the late 1950s-early 1960s, though middle-aged, they'd go on TV shows like the DuPont Hour to do the old dances and get them recorded for posterity (and to get paid, of course). Here they are on RUclips 50 years later, so mission accomplished.

    some things are seriously just meant to be, who knew that 50 years later a song would be used with this. SO DAMN PERFECT

    My mind can't handle how amazing this video is. It's only thought of what to do is to re-watch it and re-watch it and re-watch it. So I've been doing just that..... for 2 hours.

    This has got to be one of the most well-described videos on RUclips.
