Drum solo is a form of auditory art on its own. I drummed for over 8 years, but never had the courage to ever play in a band due to anxiety, thus I always honed my solo drum skills creating unique styles
I noticed something. You can really notice how the coding works in animusic especially at 2:46. The animations are bound to the MIDI tracks. They are programmed to play specific things according to the MIDI data. At 2:46, one of the robots goes up to hit a cymbal, but his MIDI programming demands him back where he was beforehand, so he quickly snaps back. God, I love Animusic.
The Animusic series was created using Animusic|Studio, software that takes the completed MIDI file and automatically generates corresponding animation based on hand animated or motion captured primitives for each instrument. Essentially it's all automatic blending between a comparatively small amount of manual animation work. That's not to say it looks bad or even that it's lazy. It's the only reason any of this was viable as a product in the first place
apparently this one and resonant chamber were the hardest ones to make, and a special software was written by the director to aid with production of the two
Wowww after years of listening to all this, I just realized that at 3:00 he's actually hitting his stick on the rim of the mechanism! That's so awesome, I thought this was exclusively drum
Whenever one of those four gongs at the top are hit, I have to remind myself that it's one of the drummers making the sound, and not just background noise.

One of the biggest reasons Animusic 3 stalled out was that Studio wasn't capable of managing the extra moving parts and fine details in a consistent manner. It either had to be rebuilt from the ground up, or the music would have to be written to only focus on its strengths. They went with the second option, the limitations combined with inconveniently timed health and personal issues slowed composer Wayne Lytle's output to such a degree that the whole company fell apart.
i think this is the only animusic animation to fully depict china cymbals (in drum machine, the high pitched gong had the sound of a china cymbal despite the fact it's not a china cymbal)
I'm not sure what that is but if you mean the whole gyro part, drummers have been doing drum solos in spinning cages since the 80s. Look up the drum cage from motley crue
It's astonishing, the creativity and intelligence with which God has imbued some minds, to be able to come up with such fantastic and wonderful concepts as this, and then put them into action.
this video completely nerdsniped me on time signatures so here are all the time signatures in the video (i think and hope they're correct) 0:17-0:52 time signature: 4/4 0:52-1:14 time signature: 5/4 1:15-1:36 time signature: 4/4 + 4/4 + 3/4 + 4/4 + 4/4 + 2/4 (probably) 1:36-2:24 time signature: 4/4 2:26-2:42 time signature: 4/4 + 4/4 + 3/4 2:42-4:05 time signature: 4/4
Ok so when the two double drums on each side four total come up at 1:53 you’ll notice how the drums in the back with the single symbol it looks like they’re never played at all in the video unless I’m wrong?
The world knows about the ancient artifact that was the Temple of Heavy Light. But what society didn't know was that - to process the light that would power the Harmonic Voltage project - they would need a system to use the light, test it and send it off. The Gyro Drum Gang sit at the centre of the massive temple itself, and as forementioned, uses the light, tests it, and sends it to the project - drifting among space. These automatons wouldn't miss a prehistoric beat. No, not once. All that remains lies elsewhere...
Please continue this As Thanos once said, "Fine, I'll do it myself." The gyro drummers were never revealed to have a power source, most assumed the drums powered them. But no, In side the center of it, lied a generator so efficient, it could be as small as a molecule. The creators named it "The Fiber Bundle", which was so effective they made more to power centimeter tall robots that played orchestra, the Pogo Sticks. These things were great for building, so they were used to help create Pipe Dreams 1 and 2. They also helped in the creation of the disco space shuttle. Untold mysteries lie beyond this continuation, but another scholar may write more.
When these CGI animations were made it was not easy, it took considerable time to do this computers and GPU's were a fraction of the power modern computers have.
It's great. It really is. I just can't get over my own personal dread of having to lug all that equipment to and from gigs.Setting it all up and tearing it all down. Oh sure, they're robots. They'll do what they're programmed to do. But somewhere there are four of five mom robots who have to cart them around in the minivan. And I feel sorry for them.

OMG I JUST NOTICED THAT AT 2:57 THE ROBOT GUY IS LIGIT HITTING THE METAL ITSELF THEY ARE TRUE PERCUSSIONISTS OMG
the "drums are never animated correctly" guy would be so happy seeing this
I even told him to watch it on his channel (he did drum machine btw)
He would also be very terrified because he would have to build all of this
Oddly Satisfying, am I right?

I love how every section begins with a recognisable drum beat, but eventually just dives into madness.
a good kind of madness. i like it
i mean... it's pretty hard not to when the only instruments you have are drums.

with how long ago this was made and how long ago animusic 3 was announced it makes sense, theyre so old he has to

It got the imagination going for how exactly a robot system could make that happen. And thus my tisms were born.
When I was a little kid I thought this all took place in some giant dystopian dome that was just filled with music making robots
I smell a fanfic
thats so terrifying to think about that this just exists
it is

drum solos and percussion-only music are a music on their own indeed
As a drummer my self I find this very valid
Always love the rave part at 3:08. I wish it lasted longer
Dude same i play it on repeat all the time

Good job! Usually do drumming practice with this song... lol
and the raw video without the drum sounds i made... it's a masterpiece of music
Love it!
Absolute Genius, could watch this all day
Same
At the very end... Have a one armed RoboDrummer hit a triangle... Brilliant work this. Stunning!!!!
Just rewatching it again when I had a brainwave. That looks like Neil Peart's drum set!
RIP Neil.

i can't even hope to imagine (trying to comprehend) the keyframe complexity. Drums kick ass!

At this point, I've been watching animusic for 13 or 14 years. Samus66 needs to see this amazing piece!!
I agree
I was born in 2011, and when I found animusic
Edit:...
66Samus definitely needs to check this out
An absolutely amazing piece of art.
A representation that music 🎼 truly is universal.
I'm not gonna lie all my life I thought I dreamt this because I thought I had gotten stoned as a child. 15 years later I once again find this
Every drum solo great test
There's a video game called N++, and a track that uses those exact same synths at 3:08. Anybody know where I can find them?
imagine this being a rollercoaster ride
if it were, i would call it drum madness
What's crazy is that Aric Improta pretty much does sound like this on drums. Dude's insane.
You guys are insane in a brilliant way..there’s a story in all this ..a kooky film
Section one : Frankie Banali -- "The Wild and the Young." -- Quiet Riot .. --- But this is what kind of robot we'd need to replace Neil Pert..

I wonder if this was the inspiration for Benson’s drum solo from regular show
When was that?
Because Animusic 2 album was in 2005.
@@MaxTheRealmTC_3421 around 2011-2013, can't remember which season and when it came out exactly

If Jenny the teenage robot had her own drum solo, this would be it.
So many drums 😮
You you don't hear it theres a reference to pipe dream, at a certain part i can slightly the same drum pattern that pipe dream drums use

I like how the robot tests the drums first to see if they’re “drumming”.
Also, was like, “Yo, where’s my snare?”
