I was one of those that wanted Kane to establish the pre-written lore of the backrooms, but when I look at it even more. Most of the good backroom levels are smothered with ones that are by edgey teens. Compare to SCP's lore where they have an official website with a moderate team to decide which SCP can be deemed canon....the Backrooms wiki has no moderation. Like I said, there are good backroom levels, but it is smothered by the bad ones. I just wish someone can make an official Backrooms website like how SCP does its canon.
I’m still in awe that a 17 year old is doing better work than most adults out there. I can’t wait to see what he has in store for us next in his Backrooms series.

Wendigoon made a good breakdown of the backroom series and even had an interview with the creator. It’s really cool how he uses Async as a vessel for the vague storytelling.
I honestly prefer Kane Pixel's backrooms over the "official" version. In the official version, there's been so much expansion. There is entire societies, organizations, a multitude of different entities across nearly a thousand levels. Dont get me wrong, it has created a user created lore treasure trove that I find really interesting. Unfortunately, all this expansions has come at a cost. The sense of mystery, isolation, and unknown has been lost in my personal opinion. Kane Pixel's universe maintains the horror which what the original 4chan post started, being stuck in an endless maze with no escape, knowing nothing as to who, or what, may be there. While there has been a little expansion to his universe, such as the Company Async, how their project of originally good intentions started, as well as incidents occurring within the backrooms involving multiple victims, he still manages to maintain the fear of the unknown, portrayed through a masterfully crafted series of videos that balance the uneasy feeling of being alone, yet not alone, at the same time, while also featuring heart racing chase sequences that generate far more fear than the cheap jump scares of modern horror.
This. It's the same reason why i kind of lost interest in the SCP foundation: recurring characters, a multitude of organizations, cringy dialogues between entities and researchers that resemble bad larps, God is an SCP(not a god, the biblical God) and all that jazz. When a weird anomaly with an interesting story is all you need.
Definitely agree with this, I find the actual lore is kinda ridiculous and difficult to follow. It turns it more into a complicated/nonsensical level game rather than just simple liminal horror. Kane's series managed to deliver some great world building while still maintaining the simple mystery and horror aspect of the backrooms. It definitely shows how much thought and effort he has put into crafting the "story" of his series.
I personally like both because they both fundamentally have different appeals, The shear amount of levels on the wikis means that you can head canon all the good levels being real and just ignore cringe levels. Then there is Kane-Pixel Backrooms which is just beautifully developed and written.
4:00 the chairs are stretched on the Y axes. You can tell this is the case because the arms and seat cushion are really Thicc, but other parts of the chair aren't. only stretched on the Y axes. This points towards the backrooms being a "broken" mirror of reality, where it clones objects, but sometimes these objects get messed up in the process.

@@pauls5745 absolutely, its about creating a scenario and immersing the individual within. It throws away jump scares for the encroaching despair that real terror brings.
Kane's series is one of the best/clever works of horror/mystery that I have ever seen. Also just a reminder, Kane has stated that his series is a completely different cannon from the wiki. Some of it may look like that but it is more so inspired form it. You have to watch the other videos to (sorta) get a better understanding of it. Kane's series is built around mystery, and many aspects are left for speculation. Wendigoon has a great video that breaks down everything up until the Presentation.

You know Mutahar, I'm glad you mentioned how scary faceless or blurry face people are to me. I mean I'm an adult and not terrified by the thought or sight of pictures but just the unknowing of who or what they are is what scares me because no matter how hard you try to focus on the face you just can't see. I know I'm not the only one with opinions like that but I just want to know more on why that is so anxiety raising.
I think the reason faceless/not being able to recognize people is so scary to a lot of people is because humans are social animals, so if a face is gone or even slightly wrong (remember those photos with the lips and eyes flipped upside down) we can sort of see/feel it
After the first Kane Pixels videos so many people started doing their own blender backrooms videos but every single time he comes back and proves why he's the best at it out of all the other attempts
Fun fact: He doesn't use a VHS filter, the effect is genuine. He writes his renders to tape, plays them on an actual VHS, and then records from the VHS. I'm sure he does a little work after that to accentuate the effect and enhance the degradation effect, but the core VHS tape effect isn't applied digitally, it's genuine.
Kane is making his own lore for the backrooms, so Muta trying to fit the wiki into it is like trying to fit a triangle into a square peg. It’s clear the entity came from the guy who crashed the car, as his blood smears lead into the room. The missing persons video and autopsy report build up the idea the entities are the corpses of people that have been transformed by some mutated bacteria.

I appreciate the channels that keep the backrooms going, but I find it hard to un-kill the concept after all the memes and goofy "lore" that ruined it.
It doesn't even make sense I don't understand how people can be frightened or want to even follow such nonsense what's the internet doing to the world 😴🥴
Some of the things you mention like "less is more" is exactly why Dark Souls games are so good. The mystery behind DS1 is exactly what kept me progressing through the game and damn was my first week playing brutal lol.
Great quote from A Plague Tale Innocence "You Subtract by Adding More" Backrooms are a fun idea but it really needs alot more effort then: Use script, mod a few things, make a camera fly through, add filters and get views Now it just feels that everyone is riding the popularity without putting near enough effort
It's how I felt about the SCP Foundation. When it started, it was very simple and it led people to entertain the idea of a organization that dealt with paranormal activity. Now it has a huge multiverse set of lore and entity logs and it lost the mystery and allure it had. To share the same sentiment, I enjoy it still no doubt. But like a lot of popular things, it got to polished and massive to really feel like it once did.
The backrooms is where all the stuff that Walmart's website says is at your local store is instead of on the shelves but the workers refuse to go get it.
Two things: 1. I really like how the official lore for ASYNC is that they're trying to turn the Backrooms into a giant storage facility to save money and only started going off the deep end when they decided to also turn it into a city despite the giant monstrosities, anomalies, and possible contagions. The fact that most of the stuff that goes on is because a company wanted to use the place for mundane reasons is actually a pretty good setup. 2. Another channel I'd recommend is Frag 2: his videos are a bit different as the researchers and their reasons for exploring haven't been elaborated on as much, but I do like how he chooses to show the Backrooms more as an ecosystem with the Aranea Membri being the apex predators, along with the subtle shift in how the researchers handle the Backrooms (unlike Kane's depiction where the researchers rather obviously choose to run away from the entities as they don't have combat training, the researchers in Frag's depiction gradually go from getting torn apart and attacked by the Aranea and other Backrooms entities to laying down traps and even capturing an Aranea by ambushing it with a harpoon)
If you haven't noticed before most of Kane's videos (if not all) has a hidden video linked to in the descriptions for even more content. The car that ended in the backrooms was actually in one of those vids where there's a view of a freeway and one of the cars just drops into the street at full speed.
6:44 for clarification about Kane pixels' series, since it uses no pre-establisbed lore at all, the monster isn't anything from the pre-rstablished lore. It is a bacteria monster.
for me, liminal spaces have always lacked a certain labyrinthine quality I've only experienced in buildings which have been repurposed many times. with each new project comes different spacial needs which leads to walls getting shifted around. something quite eerie about wandering down an unlit hallway, itself tucked back in a corner, barely wide enough to pass through shoulders scraping along each wall, only to be met with a dead-end immediately upon rounding a bend.
Kane illustrates that the backrooms exists independent of time. 3:20 Everything that was dropped through, over however long they were dropping things, all fell into the backrooms and landed at the same time. At 5:14, the shadows are on the ceiling, which means that the light source is below the window.
Kane Pixels in an interview has said there has been 2 time jumps. I'm not sure what it meant because there are multiple ways to interpret it, but it may mean that isnt quite true idk.
@@big_numbers idk if it is because I'm tired but I'm not sure what your point is. The interview was 2 weeks ago by wendigang, this video was posted today.
Been following the backrooms lore for quite some time now, i love how interesting the entirety of it is.. Heck, sitting down a couple of hours every now and then and just go trough random backroom levels lore is really relaxing.
I’m an EMT and let me tell you something about hospitals… there will be whole wards completely abandoned but everything in need my and order with absolutely no one in them. Passing through these sections are terrifying because your in a place where everything is so full and nurses are running around like crazy and shit is beeping then u turn a corner and just silence… it is insane how many hospitals have places like this
Muta!!!! I absolutely LOVE Kane Pixels BUT I’ve seen this other channel called “Lost in the Hyperverse” with their own spin on The Backrooms and I LOVE that one too!! Super creative and very spooky/entertaining!
the backrooms are probably one of the coolest things that came from the Internet, up there with scp. it's just a huge writing collab with lots of talented and very creative people behind the scenes
It's all fun and games until someone tries to make a high budget movie about this and their legal team informs them "You need to label this movie 'Based on Real Events'."
My friend and I are completely hooked. We love that type of content! We especially admire his skill and dedication to what he built. Kane Pixels is dope. Muta is always great to, don't get jealous!
Thank you for posting on this Mudahar, took you long enough, I have been waiting, LMAO. Their is now an beta multiplayer game of the backrooms on steam, it's called The Backrooms World.
I’ve followed the entire channel backrooms story and lore development, and I’ve been a horror film, game & tv junkie from a very, very young age (probably too young my most standards but hey, I’ve always loved it for the escapism for me). So… about 30 years now consuming all varieties of horror content from all over the world. This second backrooms found footage video was the epitome of exactly what mutahar said… less is more. I’m super hardened to horror tropes, predictable jump scares etc… but this video, which I did watch pre-dawn in darkness with surround sound headphones on my iPad, managed to JUMP SCARE me with the flick of a light switch (which lights up the room with creepy tall chairs). But just that, by itself, impressed me SO much. Kane Pixels has that crazy rare talent and attention to detail I utterly adore. And he’s only 17 now 🤯
Just discovered these on Monday and I'm upset there aren't more videos. These videos are the perfect nightmare - positively frightening and desperate, but you get to "wake up" from them.
2:58 THAT'S IT! The whole "Backrooms" thing is like a retelling of that one episode of "The Twilight Zone", where the little girl gets lost in that pocket dimension!
Wendigoon just did an interview with Kane. You should check it out. He even showed some of kane's "hidden" videos. One of them even shows how the car got there
I used to work at night in a hospital and man we had tons of long hallways with automatic lights that just came on one by one and it used to always give me the shivers.
Finally some one else has pointed that out. Also Muta just completely glossed over the Async side of the story, which is a large chunk of Kane's story and it (sorta) explains certain key details from the found footage videos.
In one of Kane's videos, it shows a black & white traffic cam view of an expressway and a car, very similar to this one, no-clipping "through" the road while in motion. Also, if you notice, there is a point of first impact on the carpet a few meters behind the vehicle, implying it was still in motion until it hit the wall.
There is another SUPER talented animator on RUclips who goes by Lost in the Hyperverse. I ABSOLUTELY recommend checking out his backrooms series. One of the videos is 40 minutes long!
I’m getting real SCP vibes from this genre. It’s really cool to see how creative people can get when working just from inspiration without financial motivations.
Some of the footage looks like a mix of horror and some type of insurance video inspection from the mid 80's to late 90's it feels like it would have the best science fiction horror I could see this as a long term marketing plan for a horror movie series
Can someone make an alternative version of the backroom lore entry? Why does everyone just agree and comply that the cringe 14-year-old-made wiki is the official lore of the backroom story
I think you've got this series wrong - it's not really connected to any backrooms lore beyond the idea of the liminal space itself. The 'dullers' and outside areas/levels are not a part of this
When talking about Kane Pixel's Backroom, I find it's also important to bring up the channel called "A-Sync Research", it's one of the very few other channels that managed to match Kane's style and lore to use it for a new set of videos. I greatly recommend it.
2012: This movie effect is so creepy, it's obviously CGI but looks like real life, only not quite... 2022: This liminal space is so creepy, it's obviously real life but looks like CGI, only not quite...
You know that feeling you get when you remember a preschool you went to when you were really young? Or seeing some shitty horror game on a teenagers laptop when you're too young to understand what's happening? And then you think back to that time as an adult and it brings back this unsettling nostalgia that feels other worldly, you don't even know if it actually happened or if you just made it up in your head. You know that feeling? This backrooms series triggers that and it's one of the reasons I watch it.
About those old style vcr filters, Kane has said he actually records to and from a real VCR. What I do not understand is VCRs are not HD. Yes, there was HD vhs but it was digital and does not have those distortions and artifacts.
Its so interesting seeing the next generations develop their own popculture stories like we did Growing up on creepy pastas, slender man, scp, FNAF and now seeing this gives a kind of outside perspective. I feel old
I talked to some people from Kane's Discord and they told me that Kane is aware of the A Sync channel but does not endorse what they do. I mostly got the vibe that most of Kane's entourage and fans don't appreciate the fact Async uses Kane's ideas without his consent wich is not very cash money.
The worst thing about Kane pixels videos about the backrooms was starting off with him and his first video of the backrooms, I just wanted more. If you start now, you have good content to binge, I wasnt as fortunate haha
I think the furniture is like actual people's furniture just disappearing, and the *elongated* chairs have been warped somehow like a stretched jpeg image. I like to imagine somebody going to get a glass of water or something and coming back to a missing couch or something like that
Kane creates his own version of the backrooms. and the original lore of The backrooms depends on which version you follow or if you make your own like Kane has.
The sentence "Seriously, turn the lights down, get the volume up" definitely felt like a reference to Mullet Mike, Creepy Gaming, and maybe even a reference to the time Muda appeared on Mullet Mike's Creepy Gaming series and did commentary in the GTA San Andreas episode years ago
Not being able to fully see a monster that's chasing you lends to the fear of the unknown. Though it has to be done a certain way or else it looks bad. Usually simple things like just insufficient lighting or what Kane Pixels is doing is what works best.
Muta should come back and review The Mandela Catalogue since Vol. 333 came out a few months ago, and the subsequent smaller additions to it. It's getting more and more interesting and there's finally some type of protagonist actually going after the bad guys there.
The Mandela Catalogue is definitely my favourite analog horror on youtube, the backrooms as a concept doesn't scare me as much as what the Catalogue shows, toying with religious themes really scares me, I'm not religious but I'm surrounded by it, so I really like what Alex Kister does in his fictional universe, Muta if you're reading this, check the Mandela Catalogue out, it's really good.
@@inuush Muta has done a video on it as he's seen Overthrone to Vol. 2. But he should catch up from there to where it's at now with Interlude. Everyday Gets Brighter is my favorite one so far since it actually gives a protagonist the viewers can't help but root for in that messed up universe. Also the voice acting on that one was chef's kiss perfection.
To be honest when people started adding monsters and entities to the Backrooms, it really lost its charm for me like just the idea alone of being completely isolated in a realm that you can’t ever escape is already frightening, so when you add a creature that for some reason lives there feels kinda forced, just let the fear of isolation be the main aspect of the Backrooms, like I prefer the idea that something might be roaming the Backrooms but it doesn’t actually exist and it’s your mind that starts to add on the fear, so now you have the feeling of something watching you but it was never there to begin with.
I gotta hand it to Kane that it's obvious they're putting a lot of effort and love into this project. My issue with the Backrooms anymore is people seem intent on turning it into discount SCP. It's killed a lot of the horror it used to have. What made the Backrooms scary to me, was the loneliness, isolation, strange familiarity, and insurance to a slow demise from thirst or starvation. Now it's all about entities, corporations, and conspiracies. That's not horror to me, that's just thriller.
Actually you're wrong about the VHS stuff being added post-editing. Devs have torn apart the P.T. demo and have accuratedly replicated its visual effects. The screen filters are in the render itself. You can check one example, "The Complex", for free on Stream. The only things added are the live action shots and text.
Sometimes fear and terror works best if there is little explanations for anything. Trying to add lore and deeper explanations for any kind of horror story spoils everything.
well we have seen the full thing in the first episode though for quick snippets, the monster itself is called " bacteria ", I think he actually brought it through a vhs because its very well compared to what I have seen.
Anything from the wiki is irrelevant. This is a unique creation; I doubt Kane is pulling from anything people have made outside of the original concept.
I like how Kane's not following pre established lore for it, but making his own. Really makes it feel unique.

I really like how the official lore for ASYNC is that they're trying to turn the Backrooms into a giant storage facility to save money and only started going off the deep end when they decided to also turn it into a city despite the giant monstrosities, anomalies, and possible contagions. The fact that most of the stuff that goes on is because a company wanted to use the place for mundane reasons is actually a pretty good setup.
2. Another channel I'd recommend is Frag 2: his videos are a bit different as the researchers and their reasons for exploring haven't been elaborated on as much, but I do like how he chooses to show the Backrooms more as an ecosystem with the Aranea Membri being the apex predators, along with the subtle shift in how the researchers handle the Backrooms (unlike Kane's depiction where the researchers rather obviously choose to run away from the entities as they don't have combat training, the researchers in Frag's depiction gradually go from getting torn apart and attacked by the Aranea and other Backrooms entities to laying down traps and even capturing an Aranea by ambushing it with a harpoon)
If you haven't noticed before most of Kane's videos (if not all) has a hidden video linked to in the descriptions for even more content.
The car that ended in the backrooms was actually in one of those vids where there's a view of a freeway and one of the cars just drops into the street at full speed.
Nope, it's a different one
6:44 for clarification about Kane pixels' series, since it uses no pre-establisbed lore at all, the monster isn't anything from the pre-rstablished lore. It is a bacteria monster.
for me, liminal spaces have always lacked a certain labyrinthine quality I've only experienced in buildings which have been repurposed many times. with each new project comes different spacial needs which leads to walls getting shifted around. something quite eerie about wandering down an unlit hallway, itself tucked back in a corner, barely wide enough to pass through shoulders scraping along each wall, only to be met with a dead-end immediately upon rounding a bend.
Kane illustrates that the backrooms exists independent of time. 3:20 Everything that was dropped through, over however long they were dropping things, all fell into the backrooms and landed at the same time.
At 5:14, the shadows are on the ceiling, which means that the light source is below the window.
Kane Pixels in an interview has said there has been 2 time jumps. I'm not sure what it meant because there are multiple ways to interpret it, but it may mean that isnt quite true idk.
@@Gandhi_Physique the interview was before this video (it was actually uploaded after though)
@@big_numbers idk if it is because I'm tired but I'm not sure what your point is. The interview was 2 weeks ago by wendigang, this video was posted today.
Been following the backrooms lore for quite some time now, i love how interesting the entirety of it is.. Heck, sitting down a couple of hours every now and then and just go trough random backroom levels lore is really relaxing.
Dropping some edibles and watching Kane's videos has to be one of the best/worst ways to spend your nights, shout out to A-Sync too
Y would you do that to yourself 😂
Thrawn pfp, nice
I think Kane Pixels is the analog horror creator of the year.
@Raijin Sun was literally gonna say that
Mandela Catalogue is up there too.
I’m an EMT and let me tell you something about hospitals… there will be whole wards completely abandoned but everything in need my and order with absolutely no one in them. Passing through these sections are terrifying because your in a place where everything is so full and nurses are running around like crazy and shit is beeping then u turn a corner and just silence… it is insane how many hospitals have places like this
It feels like an unfinished level, or animation test level that you can't normally get to in a video game
Muta!!!! I absolutely LOVE Kane Pixels BUT I’ve seen this other channel called “Lost in the Hyperverse” with their own spin on The Backrooms and I LOVE that one too!! Super creative and very spooky/entertaining!
the backrooms are probably one of the coolest things that came from the Internet, up there with scp. it's just a huge writing collab with lots of talented and very creative people behind the scenes

My friend and I are completely hooked. We love that type of content! We especially admire his skill and dedication to what he built. Kane Pixels is dope. Muta is always great to, don't get jealous!

Yeah I wish I could binge this stuff lol.
To clarify, Kane doesn’t use the wikis as inspiration. So you shouldn’t be looking at “levels” or the wikidot or fandom canons for insight.
Kane has mine and probably everyone's respect for that first bit of the girl nocliping objects at the start
Honestly don't think that's a girl. Idk why everyone keeps thinking that. To me it sounds like a boy around the age of 10-12.

Thank you for posting on this Mudahar, took you long enough, I have been waiting, LMAO. Their is now an beta multiplayer game of the backrooms on steam, it's called The Backrooms World.
Good to see ya muta hope all is good. It’s been great getting so much content from you. Keep it coming!!
sorry you got a racist bot bro

I’ve followed the entire channel backrooms story and lore development, and I’ve been a horror film, game & tv junkie from a very, very young age (probably too young my most standards but hey, I’ve always loved it for the escapism for me). So… about 30 years now consuming all varieties of horror content from all over the world. This second backrooms found footage video was the epitome of exactly what mutahar said… less is more. I’m super hardened to horror tropes, predictable jump scares etc… but this video, which I did watch pre-dawn in darkness with surround sound headphones on my iPad, managed to JUMP SCARE me with the flick of a light switch (which lights up the room with creepy tall chairs). But just that, by itself, impressed me SO much. Kane Pixels has that crazy rare talent and attention to detail I utterly adore. And he’s only 17 now 🤯
Just discovered these on Monday and I'm upset there aren't more videos. These videos are the perfect nightmare - positively frightening and desperate, but you get to "wake up" from them.
Bro his videos are amazing kane pixels is super underrated, I get chills every time I finish his video
2:58 THAT'S IT! The whole "Backrooms" thing is like a retelling of that one episode of "The Twilight Zone", where the little girl gets lost in that pocket dimension!
this backdoor stuff reminds me 2012, 2013 with the indie game era on youtube. i love it
It’s thanks to Muta I got into the Backrooms and Liminal Spaces
It’s made me take up (legal) urban exploring for liminal photography as a hobby.
I heard that deep within the back rooms is a positive review for the new LOTR series.
Wendigoon just did an interview with Kane. You should check it out. He even showed some of kane's "hidden" videos. One of them even shows how the car got there
glad someone else remembered that car just dropping from a while back
I used to work at night in a hospital and man we had tons of long hallways with automatic lights that just came on one by one and it used to always give me the shivers.
I love how everyone was like “lol that guy in the car going 60 mph is going to smack into a wall or kill a monster” the. It happened
The car gives me "As Above, So Below" vibes.
And tbh that movie sort of qualifies as a backroom esque horror flick. Done extremely well imo.
Kane pixels rendition of the backrooms doesn't follow the wiki, it's a different thing entirely
Finally some one else has pointed that out. Also Muta just completely glossed over the Async side of the story, which is a large chunk of Kane's story and it (sorta) explains certain key details from the found footage videos.
In one of Kane's videos, it shows a black & white traffic cam view of an expressway and a car, very similar to this one, no-clipping "through" the road while in motion.
Also, if you notice, there is a point of first impact on the carpet a few meters behind the vehicle, implying it was still in motion until it hit the wall.
There is another SUPER talented animator on RUclips who goes by Lost in the Hyperverse. I ABSOLUTELY recommend checking out his backrooms series. One of the videos is 40 minutes long!
Damn, Kane Pixels is so busy that Kane hasn’t appeared in the comment section yet lol, that level of focus is crazy.
I’m getting real SCP vibes from this genre. It’s really cool to see how creative people can get when working just from inspiration without financial motivations.
Some of the footage looks like a mix of horror and some type of insurance video inspection from the mid 80's to late 90's it feels like it would have the best science fiction horror I could see this as a long term marketing plan for a horror movie series
And just as i was introduced to the backroom lore by Wendigoon in a 1.20 hour video muta out of the blue to continue where i was left..
I love it! Very Hitchcock-like suspense. That’s the best kind of horror
Can someone make an alternative version of the backroom lore entry? Why does everyone just agree and comply that the cringe 14-year-old-made wiki is the official lore of the backroom story
I like how this can be categorized as sci fi horror as well... that's rare to be considered nowadays.
I think you've got this series wrong - it's not really connected to any backrooms lore beyond the idea of the liminal space itself. The 'dullers' and outside areas/levels are not a part of this
@YeaMan Nah muta puts out straight 🔥🔥 paige aint got shit on him
Kane Pixel's might be the best version of the backrooms. It is amazing to go through it.
When talking about Kane Pixel's Backroom, I find it's also important to bring up the channel called "A-Sync Research", it's one of the very few other channels that managed to match Kane's style and lore to use it for a new set of videos. I greatly recommend it.
@YeaMan I love how you said that these comment bots are getting out of hand while literally being a bot.
2012: This movie effect is so creepy, it's obviously CGI but looks like real life, only not quite...
2022: This liminal space is so creepy, it's obviously real life but looks like CGI, only not quite...
You know that feeling you get when you remember a preschool you went to when you were really young? Or seeing some shitty horror game on a teenagers laptop when you're too young to understand what's happening? And then you think back to that time as an adult and it brings back this unsettling nostalgia that feels other worldly, you don't even know if it actually happened or if you just made it up in your head. You know that feeling? This backrooms series triggers that and it's one of the reasons I watch it.
Really love these backroom videos. So many memes as well, like Gigachad frees you from the backrooms! xD
When a 17 year old does a much better job then a whole band of adults making a movie
yeah he found a new scary theme and independent of hollywood, privateers like Kane cane and others are making some great content
About those old style vcr filters, Kane has said he actually records to and from a real VCR. What I do not understand is VCRs are not HD. Yes, there was HD vhs but it was digital and does not have those distortions and artifacts.
Would love to just chill with muta on stream or something and talk about pretty legit stuff.

I really believe less is more for the back rooms. I’m so thankful for content like this.
Its so interesting seeing the next generations develop their own popculture stories like we did
Growing up on creepy pastas, slender man, scp, FNAF and now seeing this gives a kind of outside perspective.
I feel old
You ain't even 30 yet if you rattled off FNAF man, that is some bogus kid shit.
Kane is an example of what happens when a talent is allowed to flourish at an early age
I think, if you started seeing people with smudged faces, you should see a doctor. Pretty sure there is a neurological issue that causes that.
yeah that happened when I hit my head and blacked out for a bit, I don't think smudged faces are a good sign

I talked to some people from Kane's Discord and they told me that Kane is aware of the A Sync channel but does not endorse what they do. I mostly got the vibe that most of Kane's entourage and fans don't appreciate the fact Async uses Kane's ideas without his consent wich is not very cash money.

The worst thing about Kane pixels videos about the backrooms was starting off with him and his first video of the backrooms, I just wanted more. If you start now, you have good content to binge, I wasnt as fortunate haha
I think the furniture is like actual people's furniture just disappearing, and the *elongated* chairs have been warped somehow like a stretched jpeg image. I like to imagine somebody going to get a glass of water or something and coming back to a missing couch or something like that
The thought and world building in this found footage is incredible
Kane really is good at VFX huh
Kane creates his own version of the backrooms. and the original lore of The backrooms depends on which version you follow or if you make your own like Kane has.
The things you can do with a camera never cease to amaze me.
His Pitfalls video is probably his best. I've rewatched it so many times.
Matpat pointed out that a car disappeared on a road shot in one of the 1st videos so seeing that in this one was a nice throwback detail
Hey Muta! Great video. I'd love to see another one going more in depth into liminal spaces, like the one you did a while ago.
Can't recommend Kane Pixels channel enough
Kane has the only decent looking backrooms footage on YT it's the only semi realistic looking backroom CP out there
The sentence "Seriously, turn the lights down, get the volume up" definitely felt like a reference to Mullet Mike, Creepy Gaming, and maybe even a reference to the time Muda appeared on Mullet Mike's Creepy Gaming series and did commentary in the GTA San Andreas episode years ago
One of my favorite series on RUclips ATM
Kane is a f*cking genius! And he always leaves you wanting more. I just can't believe he's so young and has created such amazing work.
Not being able to fully see a monster that's chasing you lends to the fear of the unknown. Though it has to be done a certain way or else it looks bad. Usually simple things like just insufficient lighting or what Kane Pixels is doing is what works best.
Muta should come back and review The Mandela Catalogue since Vol. 333 came out a few months ago, and the subsequent smaller additions to it. It's getting more and more interesting and there's finally some type of protagonist actually going after the bad guys there.
The Mandela Catalogue is definitely my favourite analog horror on youtube, the backrooms as a concept doesn't scare me as much as what the Catalogue shows, toying with religious themes really scares me, I'm not religious but I'm surrounded by it, so I really like what Alex Kister does in his fictional universe, Muta if you're reading this, check the Mandela Catalogue out, it's really good.
@@inuush Muta has done a video on it as he's seen Overthrone to Vol. 2. But he should catch up from there to where it's at now with Interlude.
Everyday Gets Brighter is my favorite one so far since it actually gives a protagonist the viewers can't help but root for in that messed up universe. Also the voice acting on that one was chef's kiss perfection.
To be honest when people started adding monsters and entities to the Backrooms, it really lost its charm for me like just the idea alone of being completely isolated in a realm that you can’t ever escape is already frightening, so when you add a creature that for some reason lives there feels kinda forced, just let the fear of isolation be the main aspect of the Backrooms, like I prefer the idea that something might be roaming the Backrooms but it doesn’t actually exist and it’s your mind that starts to add on the fear, so now you have the feeling of something watching you but it was never there to begin with.
A-Sync is Kane Pixels
No the async channel is made by Redlimits if that’s what you mean
I gotta hand it to Kane that it's obvious they're putting a lot of effort and love into this project. My issue with the Backrooms anymore is people seem intent on turning it into discount SCP. It's killed a lot of the horror it used to have. What made the Backrooms scary to me, was the loneliness, isolation, strange familiarity, and insurance to a slow demise from thirst or starvation. Now it's all about entities, corporations, and conspiracies. That's not horror to me, that's just thriller.
I mean, I feel like most of the original backrooms horror is still present in Kane’s series. Its just a bit different imo.
Actually you're wrong about the VHS stuff being added post-editing. Devs have torn apart the P.T. demo and have accuratedly replicated its visual effects. The screen filters are in the render itself.
You can check one example, "The Complex", for free on Stream. The only things added are the live action shots and text.
Sometimes fear and terror works best if there is little explanations for anything. Trying to add lore and deeper explanations for any kind of horror story spoils everything.
well we have seen the full thing in the first episode though for quick snippets, the monster itself is called " bacteria ", I think he actually brought it through a vhs because its very well compared to what I have seen.
Anything from the wiki is irrelevant. This is a unique creation; I doubt Kane is pulling from anything people have made outside of the original concept.
