Are you interested in learning how to make your own video essays? If so, I've got some exciting news. I'm exploring the possibility of putting together a cohort based course where I can teach video essay skills. This would involve working directly with me and a small group of your peers to put together your own video essay. It would be a hands on class where we would have live sessions learning skills and analyzing other video essays. This would be less about hard skills like editing in After Effects, and more about high concept knowledge like ideation, creating and sticking to a schedule, writing scripts, and finding visual inspiration. Right now, I think the price for the first cohort would be ~$800, but I am still playing around with that.

This might just be my new favourite video essay. The decision to narrate the whole song in real time was absolutely genius. Like there's only a handful of songs I can think of where this idea would've worked. It conveys the power of the song so much more clearly than a traditional analysis ever could. The visuals were absolutely juicy as well. You've outdone yourself, my dude.
Just wanted to point out that Waters doesn’t sing on Echoes. You mention Roger singing at 12:45 . It’s all Wright and Gilmour, which they performed together shortly before Wright’s death. Gilmour said he would never play the song again, because he couldn’t imagine doing it without harmonizing with Richard Wright.
The vocals are made great by Rick Wright's harmony with Gilmour and the absence of Waters. Hopefully Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets will play Echoes in their next tour as they were telling people they would.
@@kennhern Their voices are very similar, but Wright didn’t have the range of Gilmour. In the higher notes it’s difficult to tell them apart, but in the lower register Gilmour has a much more unique voice.
I'm 67 now and bought Meddle when it was released in the US. As so many here have already said, Echoes became my favorite song back then, one that makes my eyes get moist. It's still is my favorite song 50 year later. And yes, I still have that 50 year old vinyl.
Both 'Echoes' and the album's opener, 'One Of These Days,' are Epic in their own respective way and highlights that book-end the journey that is 'Meddle.'
I'm 67 & bought the LP when it came out too. Echos became mine and almost every person I talked with big favourite. It was the encore when I saw them in '75.
This is very well-written. I've never understood Echoes like this before. Is this like a general consensus among Pink Floyd fans? Also, explaining the song while it plays without cuts is awesome. I feel like I'm attending a very interesting literature class.
I understand the song very differently, and yet this video still made me fall deeper in love with Echoes. The width and depth of interpretation that is possible here is one of the reasons I classify it as a masterpiece.
It was really well done. While I enjoy some of Syd's songs, Echoes is their first great song. People always look to the Darkside album, but this is where they became Pink Floyd
If you take the time to listen to The Endless River on vinyl in one sitting, it's hard to not get the full breath of what they have been trying to say since around this time. Being on psychedelics helps. It's layers upon carefully crafted layers that all strengthen their message by letting go of traditional notions of storytelling and communicating on a more instinctive level. It's insane to realize how skilled they were in this and how well they were able to put these skills to work.
their first experience of our music will be “Dark was the Night” by Blind Willie Johnson, it is the track featured on the golden record sent up into space on the Voyager, accompanied by 133 pictures of humans and Earth
It's not that good. It's mostly just cool jam session with some psychedelic lyrics, an experimental mid section and triumphant end section. It's not as good other songs that the band have done or other progressive rock contemporaries. It's definitey not one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever made
me and my close friends came to the conclusion that echoes is the best music ever composed by humanity. The melody, progression, lyrics, rhythm and everything in this song fits perfectly. I am a huge fan of the band's early years and without a doubt after the piper at the gates of dawn, meddle is my favorite album.
The harmonizing between Dave and Rick is what makes the song great for me. It sounds like it should have been on Darkside. I agree, it's absolutely their first masterpiece.
Your videos need to have a platform like Netflix, more people NEED to see the quality of content you put out, with ZERO compromise on art and articulation of what you are portraying. I'm gonna go recommend this to 10 of my friends. Thank you so much of this.❤️
@@KathleenMcCormickLCSWMPH I may agree, when I talk of Netflix here, I mean the scale to which this should be appreciated to, since it's THAT good. I don't necessarily mean Netflix in particular.
The Albatross truly mates for life, returning to the same spot and mate every year, where they kiss and celebrate each other in a clearly emotional way. Their beaks clattering together, they take turns squawking their affection for each other before settling down, heads side by side pressed together.
Today, I took a few hours to skateboard to the Atlantic here in Maine. The day was perfect, the skies were clear, the wind was calm, and the air crisp. As I skated through the trees, my mind began to drift to Echoes. It just came to me. When I arrived at the ocean, I was rewarded with totally calm waters and a view all the way to the edge of the horizon. I sat on the rocks and just watched the world in front of me, taking in life around me. I began to play Echoes. For all 24 minutes, I sat alone and observed, watching the albatross' fly and the kelp drift. I watched a family at play, the daughter chasing their dog and the parents walking behind. I was at peace. Life for a brief moment was calm and made sense. All that is Echoes was in front of me. When the song ended, I was overcome with a feeling of calm and clarity. The world around me made sense. And when I left, I left more complete. We all find our way back to the sea. Echoes captures all of this unlike anything else. It is spiritual and moving. Without hearing Echoes today, I would be a little less complete of a human.
Your experience sounds transcendental, you really achieved a piece of Nirvana for what I read. It reminded me when I went camping in Sweden with friends and took some acid, we started a camp fire, we sat there in silence on the side of this lake and just listened to this song. We were transfixed beyond reason.
I don't know if i'm saying this just because Echoes is my favourite Pink Floyd's song, but IMHO this video is a masterpiece. From the writing, to the way your words flow through the song, from the first second to the last. Really a great job with this one man. Congratulations!!
I think it's funny how this song was changed to not be about space as Pink Floyd didn't want to be known as space rock band, but then people started noticing how this song matches up really well with the last 23 minutes of 2001: A Space Odyssey
People who have never heard Echoes before, to this day, are still blown away. They are blown away not only by the brilliant music and sounds but by the fact that people find themselves FEELING various emotions they were not prepared for. I don't know how many times I have seen people react to Pink Floyd and find themselves in tears-again-to this day. Pink Floyd, with their genius and brilliance, creating masterpiece after masterpiece grab you, pull you in and make you feel.
I’ve been waiting on someone to talk about Echoes this deeply for the longest. I knew I wasn’t the only one who would literally be taken on a journey every time I listen to it.
This video drove me to tears. I was on a shroom trip when I first heard this song, and it was a completely surreal experience. But I haven’t been able to put to words what that experience meant to me until now. From the bottom Of my heart, thank you.
70s Pink Floyd is their peak Dark side ,Wish you were here, Animals, The wall are the big four. Atom heart mother, meddle, and obscured by cloud are all from the 70s also and they’re all good. After getting to know all the 70s albums I’d go back to their first two albums, piper at the gates of dawn, and a saucerful of secrets. After that it’s sort of a mixed bag, following saucer, you have the soundtrack to the film More, I’m personally not a fan, it’s got some ok songs but over all not great. Ummagumma which in my opinion is underrated, the first half is live is solid, the studio half is not bad but it’s not a casual listen, go into it with an open mind and pay attention, it’s not a throw on album. Other than that you have the albums that came out after the wall, there’s people who like some of those albums and people who don’t. I personally like a momentary lapse of reason, the others have some good parts but over all I think people are more opinionated about the last four albums, you could honestly take em or leave em
@@ColtraneTaylor You might not like the Wall, and that's fine, you have every right not to, but most people would disagree as it's not only one of Pink Floyd's most popular albums but one of the greatest albums of all time, and beloved by many people. Your opinion is in the clear minority, but for you to present it as fact, especially to someone who has never heard it before, is not a good look my dude. Let OP listen to it first and form their own opinion.
Their greatest song, period. Shine On You Crazy Diamond and Dogs are certainly close, but Echoes just rises above them all. For a long while it was my favorite song of all time.
The narration: poetical, informative, insightful, inspirational. The visuals: hypnotic, drop dead stunning. I think you must already know that this is quite simply one of the very best works you have made. Bra. Fucking. Vo. Wow.
Yeah no not even close. Pink Floyd is at best meandering foibles. It's no Bach or Beethoven, that's for sure. Here listen to some decent music so you have a frame of reference ruclips.net/video/mGQLXRTl3Z0/видео.html Now that's amazing music.
I think he’s done it, you have started the new genera of psychedelic video essays. Not an essay about psychedelics but a video essay that is in itself trippy. The images, music, voice over, thoughtfulness, and conciseness is itself trippy
Obscured by Clouds (1972 - between Meddle and Dark Side) is highly underrated and probably my personal favourite Floyd album for anyone still diving into their deep rabbit hole. You can absolutely hear the evolution and transition to Dark Side.
If you ever feel doubtful about your abilities as a creator, know that I’ve just seen 25 minutes of one of the best pieces of analysis on this platform. The editing, writing, the way in which you delve into the creation of the project as well as its themes. It made me look at the song that made Pink Floyd finally click for me in a new light. Here’s to hoping you continue making videos, as this one is honestly kind of unreal
At this point, I'm not sure how much more I can praise Polyphonic for the work he does. I thought I knew everything there was to know about Echoes, yet still I learned so much from watching this it gives me renewed joy. Fantastic work good sir
Twice, I've had friends over, one of whom liked to cook special brownies, and each time was a different mutual friend trying them for the first time. And both times, they fell prey to the universal newbie error: half an hour in, "I don't feel anything, I'd better eat some more", and 15-30 minutes later, _wham_ . And both times, as they were feeling the world spin and semi-freaking out, I pulled out _Meddle_ , put side 2 on the turntable and put the needle down, had them lie down on the couch and just listen. Works every time.
Echoes is Pink Floyd's greatest song, bar none. You've explained it in a way even the most die-hard fan wouldn't have been able to. And like so many others have pointed out, the fact that you were able to get such impeccable timing between your narration and the song deserves an ovation of its own. Polyphonic, I salute you!
I have literally no idea how you managed to get this on RUclips but i'm really happy you did. Fantastic breakdown of one of the greatest songs ever made.
In Pink Floyd's 1966-1983 golden years, Pink Floyd did a lot of emotional, profound and beautiful songs and albums but Echoes is in my honest opinion one of Pink Floyd's best ever singular suites. I love that you also mentioned the influences on Echoes of Pink Floyd's then previous albums Ummagumma and Atom Heart Mother. I've always believed that Meddle overall together with Pink Floyd's other masterpieces such as Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here owe a lot to those very underrated gems.
This is the first time I've ever commented on a yt video, but this is an absolute tour de force: informative, beautiful. It helps that I deeply love the song. I hadn't listened to it for a decade, but I've gone back to it again now of course.
I started listening pink floyd because of "the dark side of the moon project". They're easily my favorite band. Now i have the honor of seeing a polyphonic video about them after i listened to this song hundreds of times
What an amazing video! This is the birth of the 2nd phase of Pink Floyd. "One of these Days" and "Echoes" are the beginning of the new Pink Floyd sound in my opinion.
I intimately know this song. You did a brilliant job of walking us through this masterpiece. The video is spot on too. Your choice to describe re-introduced the Ping around the 16:00 mark was exceptional! Seriously well done dude.
As a fellow massive Pink Floyd fan i notice your dedication to the band. This video in itself is a piece of art. Pink Floyd keeps spreading inspiration in all kinds of media! And it's just wonderful.
As soon as I start making actual adult money, you're going to be the first channel I support on Nebula. I love your content, I've been subbed for a few years now and you've only gotten better. Thanks for making these awesome video essays
Outstanding overview. The first time I heard Echoes, it was the late 90s and I was at my then boyfriend's house; we had all dropped acid. Eric put the album, Meddle, on and we all sat in the living room on couches and cushions, ambient and colored lighting making it feel like we were on another planet. I had no idea what I was in for. The album crescendos with Echoes and if you've never experienced this then you totally should because it is Incredible, frightening, ominous and otherworldly.
Pink Floyd has been the absolut first one for me. I am not even 24 but there is such an emotional and special bond between their masterpieces and me listening to them. I mostly start crying and dive deep in myself. It's almost like I have fell love with audio. I watched your Led Zeppelin video and the automatic youtube player dropped this video after that. I was telling myself "yeah why not", even though I know how I mostly react to Pink Floyd's music. Now, I just finished this masterpiece, made about an another masterpiece and m tears are falling like crazy. Thank you. I have to be honest with all of you: I was barely informed about the meaning of this bands music. Even just the melody made me fall deeply in love. But now, knowing the story behind... made me never leave them again.
Meddle was Pink Floyd at its most essential level. While many albums that came after it could be considered better, Meddle will always be THE Pink Floyd album.
I take _Meddle_ , _Dark Side of the Moon_ , _Wish You Were Here_ and _Animals_ all together as the essential Pink Floyd collection. Yeah, I'm leaving out _The Wall_ though I love it, it represents something entirely else than those four; in a way it's the group's _grand finale_ .
@@dwc1964 I respect The Wall but it never really grabbed me as much as the albums you just mentioned. Don’t get me wrong, it’s ambitious and an amazing album. I see meddle overlooked but I think it’s right up there with Dark side.
Thank you. I was born the same year the band was in- 1967, but the Floyd defined not just the generation of the 60s and 70s, but continued into my generation and beyond to this day. Finding meaning in the music has been something I’ve watched countless videos on and read every scrap I could find. Until the day I watch this video I didn’t truly understand them or the music as I did afterward. The texture and context you bring to one of the greatest tracks ever recorded is priceless. Keep up the great work.
I'm very glad there's a well-made video discussing Echoes. Echoes is my favorite Pink Floyd masterpiece and It's often overshadowed by Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall. I love those albums, but I feel a very close connection to Echoes. Hopefully, others here feel the same. Very well done video.
I'm sure you read over 100x how great this video is and that's cause it is! The continuous music with the narration and visuals are astonishing! Keep up the great work!!
Bravo Sir! This has been one of my top 500 Pink Floyd songs for over two decades. Thank you for taking the time to write this. Pink Floyd and Echoes, never fail to surprise me.
Obscured by Clouds was recorded as a soundtrack album for a film called “La Vallée”, although the band had a falling out with the film company and ended up releasing it on their own without the backing of the film company. So, in a sense it’s both a soundtrack album and a studio album. Dark Side of the Moon, however, was their next studio album to not have been originally commissioned by or for a film company. So Polyphonic may have been thinking of Obscured by Clouds as more of a soundtrack album than a true studio album.
Echoes is the finest piece of recorded music, as far as I'm concerned, in the history of humankind. It spans the genesis of a human life with the ping sounds, to its very end, with the dolly zoom-like sound effects of voices in the end serving as the voices of our ancestors, which the consciousness fades into.
Yet as a recording it isn't particularly good. It's basically a high fidelity demo. The piece fully came together live. When you hear the live versions from late 1971 to early 1973 or 2006, the studio arrangement is limp in comparison. This is in direct contrast to DSOTM which came together on record in a way that they couldn't fully achieve live.
This was the first Pink Floyd album I stumbled upon when I was 13 or 14 years old. After that, it was on, I found everything I could find on Floyd, I'm 65 now and I am still finding things like this video for instance. Echoes was the first piece I listened to, it was my favorite piece of music from Pink Floyd, and still is today. Thank you for making this video, I really appreciate your work on this and the explanation of the story and on the way they progressed.😊
This is one of the most masterful video essays on music I have ever come across. Insane how well you've pulled it off considering the legendary status of the song. Kudos.
Echoes is such an auditory masterpiece that it is able to give visuals in your mind of the deep dark ocean, conjuring up long forgotten emotions and bringing you to tears.
This song is a truly trancendant experience. I will never forget the first time I listened to Echoes, It took my breath away in a way few pieces of media ever did
For me, this song has always been a sonic representation of the experience of life itself. Conception, birth, development, living life, death, and finally, REBIRTH. My favorite Pink Floyd song.
I can only thank you for putting this much effort in creating an essay about one of the greatest songs of all time (and my absolute favorite).Thank you, really.
This gave me shivers man, great work. A song I’ve listened to hundreds of times or more and know the lyrics and how to play it myself and this was a wonderful analysis
The moment I saw Polyphonic - Echoes on my recommendation , I really wanted to scream like crazy, just like in the concert of your favorite band when they play your favorite song, you would scream right at the first note. I wonder what kind of feeling do you have for all these work you've accomplished. These videos essays to content creators like you are just like songs to musicians.
I LOVE this song. I discovered it watching Pink Floyd's "Live at Pompeii" concert film in (I think) 1974 with friends from high school. We knew and loved "Dark Side of the Moon" but the old material was life-altering.
Just found your channel today and I have to say it’s one of the most fascinating channels I’ve ever seen on RUclips. Your music knowledge and ability to break things down is absolutely Incredible

In the higher notes it’s difficult to tell them apart, but in the lower register Gilmour has a much more unique voice.
@@garyshepherd9226Saw Saucerful last month and yes they do perform Echoes!
I'm 67 now and bought Meddle when it was released in the US. As so many here have already said, Echoes became my favorite song back then, one that makes my eyes get moist. It's still is my favorite song 50 year later. And yes, I still have that 50 year old vinyl.
Legend!
Both 'Echoes' and the album's opener, 'One Of These Days,' are Epic in their own respective way and highlights that book-end the journey that is 'Meddle.'
me too
I'm 67 & bought the LP when it came out too. Echos became mine and almost every person I talked with big favourite. It was the encore when I saw them in '75.
This is very well-written. I've never understood Echoes like this before. Is this like a general consensus among Pink Floyd fans? Also, explaining the song while it plays without cuts is awesome. I feel like I'm attending a very interesting literature class.
I understand the song very differently, and yet this video still made me fall deeper in love with Echoes. The width and depth of interpretation that is possible here is one of the reasons I classify it as a masterpiece.
It was really well done. While I enjoy some of Syd's songs, Echoes is their first great song. People always look to the Darkside album, but this is where they became Pink Floyd
If you take the time to listen to The Endless River on vinyl in one sitting, it's hard to not get the full breath of what they have been trying to say since around this time. Being on psychedelics helps. It's layers upon carefully crafted layers that all strengthen their message by letting go of traditional notions of storytelling and communicating on a more instinctive level. It's insane to realize how skilled they were in this and how well they were able to put these skills to work.
@@ThaJay LSD showed me what each Pink Floyd record was at its core.
@@Livi_Noelle Exactly. It was almost like watching a movie but behind closed eyelids and on many more levels.
That slow build-up from the purely atmospheric part back to melody is one of my favorite parts of music ever ❤️
Echoes is one of the most beautiful songs in human history. If aliens ever want to get put on to human music, Echoes should be the first suggestion.
their first experience of our music will be “Dark was the Night” by Blind Willie Johnson, it is the track featured on the golden record sent up into space on the Voyager, accompanied by 133 pictures of humans and Earth
Cold have been putted into Voager's disc Hahaha"
But this music was created by aliens 🤔
It's not that good. It's mostly just cool jam session with some psychedelic lyrics, an experimental mid section and triumphant end section. It's not as good other songs that the band have done or other progressive rock contemporaries. It's definitey not one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever made
@@redl0ydd752 Okay, everyone understands you're trying to be cool
I'm so sorry that the RUclips algorithm makes videos like this so hard to produce, because this is absolutely magnificent.
This video did the impossible.
Made me love Echoes even more.
me and my close friends came to the conclusion that echoes is the best music ever composed by humanity. The melody, progression, lyrics, rhythm and everything in this song fits perfectly. I am a huge fan of the band's early years and without a doubt after the piper at the gates of dawn, meddle is my favorite album.
I would play this song on repeat in hope of converting some of my friends,,I think a few might have either way we were gonna listen 😆
Seamus...
Yeah, Piper is my fav, after that it’s Meddle.
ive been telling my friends and family the same thing. I dont thing theres is a song out there thats better than this. It's perfect
idk if it's THE best but it's 100% up there. I think Starless by King Crimson is also up there
The harmonizing between Dave and Rick is what makes the song great for me. It sounds like it should have been on Darkside. I agree, it's absolutely their first masterpiece.
Your videos need to have a platform like Netflix, more people NEED to see the quality of content you put out, with ZERO compromise on art and articulation of what you are portraying. I'm gonna go recommend this to 10 of my friends. Thank you so much of this.❤️
Nebula can do that what Netflix doesn't. Also, you can get the service with Curiosity Stream in a youtube offer something like that.

So nebula then
The Albatross truly mates for life, returning to the same spot and mate every year, where they kiss and celebrate each other in a clearly emotional way. Their beaks clattering together, they take turns squawking their affection for each other before settling down, heads side by side pressed together.
That’s so cute
Today, I took a few hours to skateboard to the Atlantic here in Maine. The day was perfect, the skies were clear, the wind was calm, and the air crisp. As I skated through the trees, my mind began to drift to Echoes. It just came to me. When I arrived at the ocean, I was rewarded with totally calm waters and a view all the way to the edge of the horizon. I sat on the rocks and just watched the world in front of me, taking in life around me. I began to play Echoes. For all 24 minutes, I sat alone and observed, watching the albatross' fly and the kelp drift. I watched a family at play, the daughter chasing their dog and the parents walking behind. I was at peace. Life for a brief moment was calm and made sense. All that is Echoes was in front of me. When the song ended, I was overcome with a feeling of calm and clarity. The world around me made sense. And when I left, I left more complete. We all find our way back to the sea. Echoes captures all of this unlike anything else. It is spiritual and moving. Without hearing Echoes today, I would be a little less complete of a human.
Your experience sounds transcendental, you really achieved a piece of Nirvana for what I read.
It reminded me when I went camping in Sweden with friends and took some acid, we started a camp fire, we sat there in silence on the side of this lake and just listened to this song. We were transfixed beyond reason.
I an a 72 year old , Pink Floyd fan , while listening to this video ,my memories expressed themselves by a few tears .
You've just outdone yourself, man. One of the best video essays I've ever seen. Respect!
I don't know if i'm saying this just because Echoes is my favourite Pink Floyd's song, but IMHO this video is a masterpiece. From the writing, to the way your words flow through the song, from the first second to the last. Really a great job with this one man. Congratulations!!
I never really listened to pink floyd, but this video might just make me do it. So you’re right, it is a masterpiece.
I think it's funny how this song was changed to not be about space as Pink Floyd didn't want to be known as space rock band, but then people started noticing how this song matches up really well with the last 23 minutes of 2001: A Space Odyssey
People who have never heard Echoes before, to this day, are still blown away. They are blown away not only by the brilliant music and sounds but by the fact that people find themselves FEELING various emotions they were not prepared for. I don't know how many times I have seen people react to Pink Floyd and find themselves in tears-again-to this day. Pink Floyd, with their genius and brilliance, creating masterpiece after masterpiece grab you, pull you in and make you feel.
I’ve been waiting on someone to talk about Echoes this deeply for the longest. I knew I wasn’t the only one who would literally be taken on a journey every time I listen to it.
This video drove me to tears. I was on a shroom trip when I first heard this song, and it was a completely surreal experience. But I haven’t been able to put to words what that experience meant to me until now. From the bottom Of my heart, thank you.
Me, too. I got choked up. Have loved this music for decades now.
Polyphonic singlehandedly convinced me to listen to all pink floyd albums
Acid and Pink Floyd binge
Get ready for a life changing experience
The Wall and everything after are a serious let down compared to this.
70s Pink Floyd is their peak
Dark side ,Wish you were here, Animals, The wall are the big four. Atom heart mother, meddle, and obscured by cloud are all from the 70s also and they’re all good. After getting to know all the 70s albums I’d go back to their first two albums, piper at the gates of dawn, and a saucerful of secrets. After that it’s sort of a mixed bag, following saucer, you have the soundtrack to the film More, I’m personally not a fan, it’s got some ok songs but over all not great. Ummagumma which in my opinion is underrated, the first half is live is solid, the studio half is not bad but it’s not a casual listen, go into it with an open mind and pay attention, it’s not a throw on album. Other than that you have the albums that came out after the wall, there’s people who like some of those albums and people who don’t. I personally like a momentary lapse of reason, the others have some good parts but over all I think people are more opinionated about the last four albums, you could honestly take em or leave em
@@ColtraneTaylor You might not like the Wall, and that's fine, you have every right not to, but most people would disagree as it's not only one of Pink Floyd's most popular albums but one of the greatest albums of all time, and beloved by many people. Your opinion is in the clear minority, but for you to present it as fact, especially to someone who has never heard it before, is not a good look my dude. Let OP listen to it first and form their own opinion.
Their greatest song, period. Shine On You Crazy Diamond and Dogs are certainly close, but Echoes just rises above them all. For a long while it was my favorite song of all time.
Yeah sure sex is good, but have you heard Dogs at 3:40 and 14:06?
@aprendizmetalero666 no
I love Atom Heart Mother Suite passionately, but Echos is a completely different dimension. I'm convinced it's the greatest song ever written.
Time, in my humble opinion, is equally as great as Echoes
Time,echoes and dogs are the greatest songs in my life. Followed closely by Soycd,saucer full of secrets,astronomy domine and set the controls.
im a simple man: i see a polyphonic video about pink floyd and i click
exactly
The narration: poetical, informative, insightful, inspirational. The visuals: hypnotic, drop dead stunning. I think you must already know that this is quite simply one of the very best works you have made. Bra. Fucking. Vo. Wow.
Almost 50 years later, and it’s still the greatest piece of music ever recorded.
It’s the greatest side of an album in rock.
There are some 18th century classical pieces that surely beg to differ.
probably not The greatest, but one of the greatest. giving any piece of music such a definitive description is risky
Yeah no not even close. Pink Floyd is at best meandering foibles. It's no Bach or Beethoven, that's for sure. Here listen to some decent music so you have a frame of reference ruclips.net/video/mGQLXRTl3Z0/видео.html Now that's amazing music.
Hear hear!
As someone who is familiar with Iqbal's poetry and a huge Pink Floyd fan, I am shocked that I never picked up this correlation between the two....
I was fortunate enough to have seen them perform this on Halloween '71 the day after it's release in the u.s.
So lucky. I was born far too late to have ever seen them live
I think he’s done it, you have started the new genera of psychedelic video essays.
Not an essay about psychedelics but a video essay that is in itself trippy. The images, music, voice over, thoughtfulness, and conciseness is itself trippy
I've never seen a more perfect tribute and background explanation for one of the most underrated songs on history. Thank you for making this.
Obscured by Clouds (1972 - between Meddle and Dark Side) is highly underrated and probably my personal favourite Floyd album for anyone still diving into their deep rabbit hole. You can absolutely hear the evolution and transition to Dark Side.
So underrated that this very video forgot it exists! 20:48

If you ever feel doubtful about your abilities as a creator, know that I’ve just seen 25 minutes of one of the best pieces of analysis on this platform. The editing, writing, the way in which you delve into the creation of the project as well as its themes. It made me look at the song that made Pink Floyd finally click for me in a new light. Here’s to hoping you continue making videos, as this one is honestly kind of unreal
I remember being 12-13 and hearing echoes live at Pompeii for the first time. Still is my favorite version.
At this point, I'm not sure how much more I can praise Polyphonic for the work he does. I thought I knew everything there was to know about Echoes, yet still I learned so much from watching this it gives me renewed joy. Fantastic work good sir
The way the music and the script play hand-in-hand at 7:48 is just beautiful
Used to put this song on, smoke, and lay in my bed pretending I was a in a sensory deprivation tank. Awesome piece.
Twice, I've had friends over, one of whom liked to cook special brownies, and each time was a different mutual friend trying them for the first time. And both times, they fell prey to the universal newbie error: half an hour in, "I don't feel anything, I'd better eat some more", and 15-30 minutes later, _wham_ .
And both times, as they were feeling the world spin and semi-freaking out, I pulled out _Meddle_ , put side 2 on the turntable and put the needle down, had them lie down on the couch and just listen. Works every time.
This one and Dogs are perfect for it.
Couch lock supreme!

And like so many others have pointed out, the fact that you were able to get such impeccable timing between your narration and the song deserves an ovation of its own. Polyphonic, I salute you!

The single greatest Polyphonic video, celebrating the single greatest composition in modern music.
In Pink Floyd's 1966-1983 golden years, Pink Floyd did a lot of emotional, profound and beautiful songs and albums but Echoes is in my honest opinion one of Pink Floyd's best ever singular suites. I love that you also mentioned the influences on Echoes of Pink Floyd's then previous albums Ummagumma and Atom Heart Mother. I've always believed that Meddle overall together with Pink Floyd's other masterpieces such as Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here owe a lot to those very underrated gems.
This is the first time I've ever commented on a yt video, but this is an absolute tour de force: informative, beautiful. It helps that I deeply love the song. I hadn't listened to it for a decade, but I've gone back to it again now of course.
I started listening pink floyd because of "the dark side of the moon project". They're easily my favorite band. Now i have the honor of seeing a polyphonic video about them after i listened to this song hundreds of times
Actually CLEARLY their first masterpiece was Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict
ah yes
agree
clearly that was their only masterpiece...
Actually I really like Ummagumma studio album
@@juromori Ummagumma is underrated for real.
What an amazing video! This is the birth of the 2nd phase of Pink Floyd. "One of these Days" and "Echoes" are the beginning of the new Pink Floyd sound in my opinion.
I intimately know this song. You did a brilliant job of walking us through this masterpiece. The video is spot on too. Your choice to describe re-introduced the Ping around the 16:00 mark was exceptional! Seriously well done dude.
As a fellow massive Pink Floyd fan i notice your dedication to the band. This video in itself is a piece of art. Pink Floyd keeps spreading inspiration in all kinds of media! And it's just wonderful.
Atom Heart Mother is also a masterpiece.
Yeah, it's a poorly titled video, they didn't need to put AHM down to praise Echoes
The bottom of the ocean IS as trippy as outer space and Roger just proved the whole iceberg point right. Great video as always
As soon as I start making actual adult money, you're going to be the first channel I support on Nebula. I love your content, I've been subbed for a few years now and you've only gotten better. Thanks for making these awesome video essays
Okay the timing of the phrase "transitional point in the band's career" with the transition to the 2nd movement of Echoes was absolutely perfect
I remember watching this video when I was first getting into Pink Floyd. Now they're my favorite band, AND Echoes is one of my favorite songs by them
Outstanding overview. The first time I heard Echoes, it was the late 90s and I was at my then boyfriend's house; we had all dropped acid. Eric put the album, Meddle, on and we all sat in the living room on couches and cushions, ambient and colored lighting making it feel like we were on another planet. I had no idea what I was in for. The album crescendos with Echoes and if you've never experienced this then you totally should because it is Incredible, frightening, ominous and otherworldly.
In my humble opinion the greatest song of all time.
Agreed
It is up there, for sure. The song is a f00kin masterpiece
@@MasterKit007 couldn’t have said it better
In my immodest opinion as well, yes.
Sister Ray by the Velvet Underground is the greatest song for me.

Your documentaries and videos are the best! This is one Pink Floyd album that still doesn’t get the praise it deserves
Pink Floyd has been the absolut first one for me. I am not even 24 but there is such an emotional and special bond between their masterpieces and me listening to them. I mostly start crying and dive deep in myself. It's almost like I have fell love with audio.
I watched your Led Zeppelin video and the automatic youtube player dropped this video after that. I was telling myself "yeah why not", even though I know how I mostly react to Pink Floyd's music.
Now, I just finished this masterpiece, made about an another masterpiece and m tears are falling like crazy. Thank you. I have to be honest with all of you: I was barely informed about the meaning of this bands music. Even just the melody made me fall deeply in love. But now, knowing the story behind... made me never leave them again.
Puuuh sorry I just read what I wrote and it's a mess. I am still under the influence what I just experienced.
Meddle was Pink Floyd at its most essential level. While many albums that came after it could be considered better, Meddle will always be THE Pink Floyd album.
I take _Meddle_ , _Dark Side of the Moon_ , _Wish You Were Here_ and _Animals_ all together as the essential Pink Floyd collection.
Yeah, I'm leaving out _The Wall_ though I love it, it represents something entirely else than those four; in a way it's the group's _grand finale_ .
@@dwc1964 I respect The Wall but it never really grabbed me as much as the albums you just mentioned. Don’t get me wrong, it’s ambitious and an amazing album. I see meddle overlooked but I think it’s right up there with Dark side.

This is the best video essay from you yet (especially because of how it synchronized to the whole song) - and I’ve seen a lot of them.
Thank you. I was born the same year the band was in- 1967, but the Floyd defined not just the generation of the 60s and 70s, but continued into my generation and beyond to this day.
Finding meaning in the music has been something I’ve watched countless videos on and read every scrap I could find.
Until the day I watch this video I didn’t truly understand them or the music as I did afterward. The texture and context you bring to one of the greatest tracks ever recorded is priceless.
Keep up the great work.
The graphic design of this channel is pure gold!! Cheers from Colombia
I'm very glad there's a well-made video discussing Echoes. Echoes is my favorite Pink Floyd masterpiece and It's often overshadowed by Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall. I love those albums, but I feel a very close connection to Echoes. Hopefully, others here feel the same. Very well done video.
I'm sure you read over 100x how great this video is and that's cause it is! The continuous music with the narration and visuals are astonishing! Keep up the great work!!
Of all Pink Floyd masterpieces, this is my favorite. Not to diminish their other works, I love this one above all others.
this is geniunely one of if not the best video essay i’ve ever seen
Bravo Sir! This has been one of my top 500 Pink Floyd songs for over two decades. Thank you for taking the time to write this. Pink Floyd and Echoes, never fail to surprise me.
4:52 - Correction: The next studio album after Echoes was Obscured By Clouds, not Dark Side.
Yes, that is true! "Obscured By Clouds" is also a very good album.
Obscured by Clouds was recorded as a soundtrack album for a film called “La Vallée”, although the band had a falling out with the film company and ended up releasing it on their own without the backing of the film company. So, in a sense it’s both a soundtrack album and a studio album. Dark Side of the Moon, however, was their next studio album to not have been originally commissioned by or for a film company. So Polyphonic may have been thinking of Obscured by Clouds as more of a soundtrack album than a true studio album.
I didn’t think it was possible, but you just made this song even more beautiful
@@micktaylor891 interesting thought
Echoes is the finest piece of recorded music, as far as I'm concerned, in the history of humankind. It spans the genesis of a human life with the ping sounds, to its very end, with the dolly zoom-like sound effects of voices in the end serving as the voices of our ancestors, which the consciousness fades into.
Yet as a recording it isn't particularly good. It's basically a high fidelity demo. The piece fully came together live. When you hear the live versions from late 1971 to early 1973 or 2006, the studio arrangement is limp in comparison. This is in direct contrast to DSOTM which came together on record in a way that they couldn't fully achieve live.
I have four words for you: Fishmans - LONG SEASON Live
Close to the Edge by Yes as well.
This was the first Pink Floyd album I stumbled upon when I was 13 or 14 years old. After that, it was on, I found everything I could find on Floyd, I'm 65 now and I am still finding things like this video for instance. Echoes was the first piece I listened to, it was my favorite piece of music from Pink Floyd, and still is today. Thank you for making this video, I really appreciate your work on this and the explanation of the story and on the way they progressed.😊
This is one of the most masterful video essays on music I have ever come across. Insane how well you've pulled it off considering the legendary status of the song. Kudos.
I could honestly listen to your essay dives into Floyd music all day. It is so strangely comforting as it is informative.
Echoes is such an auditory masterpiece that it is able to give visuals in your mind of the deep dark ocean, conjuring up long forgotten emotions and bringing you to tears.
This song is a truly trancendant experience. I will never forget the first time I listened to Echoes, It took my breath away in a way few pieces of media ever did
For me, this song has always been a sonic representation of the experience of life itself. Conception, birth, development, living life, death, and finally, REBIRTH. My favorite Pink Floyd song.
I can only thank you for putting this much effort in creating an essay about one of the greatest songs of all time (and my absolute favorite).Thank you, really.
In the ambience section, when organ come back to "tonality" with a single note, marks the golden ratio of the song.

This gave me shivers man, great work. A song I’ve listened to hundreds of times or more and know the lyrics and how to play it myself and this was a wonderful analysis
How this channel is still sub 1 million subs blows my mind. The best lyrical and band analysis on RUclips. One of my favorite channels
The moment I saw Polyphonic - Echoes on my recommendation , I really wanted to scream like crazy, just like in the concert of your favorite band when they play your favorite song, you would scream right at the first note. I wonder what kind of feeling do you have for all these work you've accomplished. These videos essays to content creators like you are just like songs to musicians.
I LOVE this song. I discovered it watching Pink Floyd's "Live at Pompeii" concert film in (I think) 1974 with friends from high school. We knew and loved "Dark Side of the Moon" but the old material was life-altering.
This was truly beautiful. I love how you played the entire song, uncut, in the background. Just amazing.
