Hey, hey, hey ,hey
Ohhh…
Won’t you come see about me?
I’ll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love’s strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby
Don’t You Forget About Me
Don’t Don’t Don’t Don’t
Don’t You Forget About Me
Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down
Will you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ohhhh…..
Don’t you try to pretend
It’s my feeling we’ll win in the end
I won’t harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security
Don’t you forget about me
I’ll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I’ll put us back together at heart, baby
Don’t You Forget About Me
Don’t Don’t Don’t Don’t
Don’t You Forget About Me
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away
Or will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on – call my name
Will you all my name?
I say :
La la la…
When you walk on by…
And you call my name…

Money (Pink Floyd) with Money Is Coming To Me (unknown)
Money
Get away
You get a good job with good pay and you’re okay
Money
It’s a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream
Think I’ll buy me a football team
Money
Well, get back
I’m all right Jack
Keep your hands off of my stack
Money
It’s a hit
Don’t give me that do goody good bullshit
I’m in the high-fidelity first class travelling set
I think I need a Lear jet
(amazing solos)
Money
It’s a crime
Share it fairly
But don’t take a slice of my pie
Money
So they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a raise
It’s no surprise that they’re giving none away
“HuHuh! I was in the right!”
“Yes, absolutely in the right!”
“I certainly was in the right!”
“You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!”
“Yeah!”
“Why does anyone do anything?”
“I don’t know, I was really drunk at the time!”
“I was just telling him, he couldn’t get into number 2. He was asking why he wasn’t coming up on freely, after I was yelling and screaming and telling him why he wasn’t coming up on freely. It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out”
Pink Floyd “Money”

Know Your Handshake: The Handshake Song

What to say to Nay-Sayers
So many folks just do not get what’s happening with Global Economic Changes and the break-up of the old regime Cabal. Too many Naysayers.
These are the persons who say something will not work or is not possible. I chatted with two guys yesterday who deny, refuse, and oppose the idea that something like the old regime banking system should and will be humbled by open market, competitive alternatives such as the BRICS economic movement.
But to the Naysayers, after the changes take place the truth will be known, and there will be:

Time After Time played by Miles Davis
Some things are just classic. Time after Time by Cyndi Lauper
The song’s title, Time After Time, was inspired after Lauper started writing for the song and needed a fake title as a placeholder for the time being. Thus, Lauper was looking in the TV Guide and saw a lot of movie titles, with the 1979 science fiction movie Time After Time being chosen. Although trying to remove the title later, Lauper claimed she couldn’t take it out without the song falling apart.
The spring of 1983, Cyndi Lauper was introduced to American musician Rob Hyman. Hyman and she sat at a piano and started working on “Time After Time” with the inspiration for the song coming after both songwriters were going through similar things with their relationships. Hyman was coming out of a long and hard relationship, and Lauper was having a lot of bumps in her relationship with current boyfriend, David Wolff. One of the first lines Rob wrote was “suitcase of memories”, which according to Cyndi, “strucked her”, claiming it was a “wonderful line”, while other lines came from her life.

May his music live long, and Miles rest in peace.

The Beatles – Revolver (1966 Full Album)
The year 1966 was a turning point in my life as I considered leaving several years of playing trumpet in concert band, and playing in a tribute band to Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass. Instead, to my mother’s dismay, I would take up guitar to chase a dream of being a rock -n-roll entertainer. From 1966 through 1972, I would spend most of my time organizing rock bands and booking performance gigs with the objective of making people dance. Revolver is the music that the Beatles had released when they too were making a change in their musical career; they would never again play a live performance on stage, but instead would only make studio music.
Revolver is the seventh studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. It was released on 5 August 1966 by Parlophone in the United Kingdom and on 8 August 1966 by Capitol Records in the United States.
In 1966, HIT songs were released on 45’s vinyl records. Taxman was the HIT song on side A, but the song on side B was my favorite, and it never made it to an LP until Beatles songs were being remixed. That song was: Paperback Writer
And, here is how to play the guitar for: Paperback Writer
Now here is the list of individual songs from the original release of: Revolver
Side 1
0:00 – 1. Taxman (George Harrison)
George’s protest against high taxes, named UK politicians of the time, “Mr. Wilson” and “Mr. Heath.”
2:42 – 2. Eleanor Rigby
One of the Beatles’ finest lyrics and with a beautiful, haunting, melody. A leading UK critic said this track signaled that pop music had “come of age.”
4:51 – 3. I’m Only Sleeping
John’s tribute to the joy of staying in bed.
7:55 – 4. Love You To (George Harrison)
George was the only Beatle to play on this track. He was joined by an Indian tabla player and studio musicians.
10:57 – 5. Here, There And Everywhere
A ballad written by Paul for his girlfriend, Jane Asher, it is thought that The Beach Boys’ “God Only Knows” was a big influence for this song.
13:25 – 6. Yellow Submarine
A modern day nursery rhyme, and inspiration for the animated film of 1968.
16:07 – 7. She Said She Said
Based on a conversation with actor Peter Fonda, this was originally a very aggressive song by John, but later rewritten.
Side 2
18:46 – 8. Good Day Sunshine
This track followed a trend for “sunny” songs in 1966, such as the Lovin’ Spoonful’s “Daydream” abd “Sunny Afternoon” by The Kinks.
20:59 – 9. And Your Bird Can Sing
Although Beatle fans searched for deep meaning in this song, John Lennon insisted it was a simple track, written to fill a gap in the album.
23:01 – 10. For No One
Only Paul and Ringo play on this track, which has a French Horn solo by classical musician Alan Civil.
25:05 – 11. Doctor Robert
The doctor in the title was a friend of The Beatles, well known on the New York art scene.
27:24 – 12. I Want To Tell You (George Harrison)
The book that wrote this said that this was not one of George’s best songs, this track documents the difficulty he often had in saying what he really meant.
29:55 – 13. Got To Get You Into My Life
The Beatles also offered this song to a group known as Cliff Bennett and The Rebel Rousers. Their cover single, produced by Paul, made the UK Top 10 a week after Revolver was released.
32:27 – 14. Tomorrow Never Knows
The Beatles’ most experimental track to date, this mystical- sounding song, which does not include the words “tomorrow never knows” was originally called “Mark 1”, until Ringo came up with the title.
Found the facts for this album from a book simply titled “The Beatles.”

America… the Band in New York 1979
This a special film by Peter Clifton.
America in performance at New York’s Central Park — In 1979 America (Dewey Bunnell and Gerry Beckley) were at the height of their popularity and had just released “Silent Letter” their first album as a duo following the departure of fellow founding member Dan Peek. Acclaimed Australian filmmaker Peter Clifton captured the band at their concert in New York’s Central Park and then followed them across to California where he filmed them in the studio and on location. All of this footage was combined to make America “Live In Central Park”.

Let It Go
Demi Lovato Let It Go is an original song she recorded for the soundtrack of Disney movie “Frozen”. The ballad is performed in the film by the character of Elsa, the Snow Queen. The production in “Let It Go” is guitar and drums. Demi delivers strong vocals and emotion in the lyrics.
[Intro]
Let it go
Let it go
Can’t hold me back anymore
Let it go
Let it go
Turn my back and slam the door
[Verse 1]
The snow blows white on the mountain tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom of isolation
And it looks like I’m the queen
The wind is howling like the swirling storm inside
Couldn’t keep it in, heaven knows I tried
Don’t let them in, don’t let them see
Be the good girl
You always had to be
Conceal, don’t feel
Don’t let them know
Well, now they know
[Chorus]
Let it go
Let it go
Can’t hold me back anymore
Let it go
Let it go
Turn my back and slam the door
And here I stand, and here I’ll stay
Let it go
Let it go
The cold never bothered me anyway
[Verse 2]
It’s funny how some distance
Makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me
Can’t get to me at all
Up here in the cold thin air
I finally can breathe
I know I left a life behind
But I’m too relieved to grieve
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Standing frozen in the life I’ve chosen
You won’t find me, the past is so behind me
Buried in the snow
[Chorus]
[Bridge] [echo… Let It Go]

Crosby, Stills & Nash – 1968 (Full Album)
I remember the critics picking on these guys, calling them ‘wimps’. Being, as they were, surrounded by Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Jimi Hendrix, Janis, and the like, and with much more numbing power from these, people thought they should be more of a hard drum and base band. They were minstrels, they lilted, it’s very light by comparison. I’m really glad they did it just like this. To me, this is the sound of the late sixties’ consciousness when I was in High School.

Grand Funk Railroad – 1969
Grand Funk Railroad performing “Inside Looking Out” live from 1969.
This clip was shot at “The Show” WITF-TV in Hershey, Pa. November 1969. Mark & Don were 20 & Mel 18 years old. This clip is timeless. I’ve had hundreds of personal messages from people of 4 generations worldwide that are in awe of this powerful performance. (Folks from 11 to 83 years of age.)
I’ve been told it’s early “METAL”, to the original “GRUNGE”, to the real begining of “PUNK”, to the first “GARAGE BAND”, to pure “TRIBAL ROCK”, to “INDUSTIAL STRENGTH ROCK.” One thing’s for sure, it is powerful, passionate, singular, & unique. Mark, Don, & Mel changed music forever with 10 minute Power Songs like this one. This is the ULTIMATE POWER TRIO. Grand Funk Railroad was truly a “Performance Vehicle”. What you heard on the albums could be duplicated 100% on their live performances. Many would say it’s impossible for a 3 piece band to do this live. See the impossible. Once you start watching it, it’s hard not to finish it. This is the most popular GFRxR video on the Web.

2. Please Don’t Worry – 4:38

5. In Need – 16:27
Side two :
1. Winter and My Soul – 24:20
2. Paranoid – 30:59
3. Inside Looking Out – 38:49
Grand Funk is Grand Funk Railroad’s second studio album, and was released in December 1969 by Capitol Records. It was produced by Terry Knight and engineered by Ken Hamann. This release (aka “The Red Album”) was certified by RIAA with a gold record award, the first for the group. It includes a cover of The Animals’ “Inside Looking Out” which is still a cornerstone of the band’s live concerts today. Other key tracks include: “Got This Thing On The Move”, “In Need”, and “Paranoid”. The inside spread photograph of the trio, for the original album release, was used for the now infamous, $100,000, block-long and several stories high, New York City’s Times Square billboard ad for the album Closer To Home (1970). The producers sought to achieve a concentration on Mark Farner’s guitar, in response to the imbalance the band achieved in On Time with the prominence of Mel Schacher’s bass. This led to the unofficial name of “The Red Album”, as the guitar track, red in the studio, was turned up. This was reflected on the red cover art.
Im sitting here lonely like a broken man.
I serve my time doin the best I can.
Walls and bars they surround me.
But, I dont want no sympathy.
No baby, no baby,
All I need is some tender lovin.
To keep me sane in this burning oven.
And, when my time is up, youll be my reefer.
Life gets worse on gods green earth.
Be my reefer, got to keep smokin that thing.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I said now baby … baby …, let me smoke it … smoke it …
Makes me feel good … feel good, yes, I feel good … ahhhhh …
Yes, I feel alright … feel alright …, yes, I feel alright … feel alright …
Yes, I feel alright … ahhhhh …
Ohhhhh …
Ice cold water is runnin through my veins.
They try and drag me back to work again.
Pain and blisters on my mind and hands.
I work all day making up NICKEL (burlap) bags.
The oats theyre feeding me are driving me wild.
I feel unhappy like a new born child.
Now, when my time is up, you wait and see.
These walls and bars wont keep that stuff from me.
No, no, baby,

The Beatles – White Album 1968
This album came out while I was still a sophomore at El Dorado High School. I remember that winter, sitting in a neighbor’s warm home listening to it for the first time, while my buddy finished getting ready to walk with me in the snow going to High School.

The Doors – Morrison Hotel (FULL ALBUM)
The Doors – Morrison Hotel
Morrison Hotel (sometimes referred to as Hard Rock Café from the title of the first side of the LP, whose second side is titledMorrison Hotel) is The Doors‘ fifth album. It was released in 1970. After their experimental work The Soft Parade was not as well-received as anticipated, the group went back to basics and back to their roots. On this album, there is a slight steer toward blues, which would be fully explored by the band on their next album, L.A. Woman. The strategy worked; even though no major hit singles were drawn from the album, Morrison Hotel reestablished The Doors as favorites of the critics, peaking at #4 on the US album chart, and when they followed with L.A. Woman the next year, they were rewarded with two more US Top 20 hits. The album also became the band’s highest charting studio album in the UK, where it peaked at #12.
Additional musicians include John Sebastian (credited as “G. Puglese,” for contractual reasons)[1] on harmonica and Lonnie Mack on bass and guitar.
The cover photo was taken at the actual Morrison Hotel located at 1246 South Hope Street in Los Angeles. The band asked the owners if they could photograph the hotel and they declined, so the band went inside when nobody was looking and took the photograph.[1]The rear cover features a photograph of the Hard Rock Café on 300 East 5th Street, Los Angeles.[2] The founders of the later and otherwise unrelated Hard Rock Cafe chain used the name, having seen it on the Doors’ album. The original cafe is no longer open for business.

Arabian Belly Dance – I Dream Of Jeanie (and her friends)
Arabian Belly Dancers –
Give Me a Ménagerie of Song and Dance !
My memory goes back to a time, where I Dream of Jeannie an American sitcom with a fantasy premise. The show starred Barbara Eden as a 2,000-year-old genie, and Larry Hagman as an astronaut who becomes her master, with whom she falls in love and eventually marries.
And, in the “real” world we discover some good although not classical belly dancing. However, as seen below, one can find a beautiful woman in superb physical condition with great abdominal muscles, and who is also extremely flexible with a superb sense of balance.
SONIA ~ The Mother of All Belly Dance’s
Sonia has earned a reputation as a highly sought after dancer in the Denver area and beyond. She is regularly hired as a performer for popular venues that feature belly dancing. Sonia offers a very professional experience from her costuming, to musicality, attitude, knowledge of the dance, and of course everything in between.(Beats Antique – EGYPTIC)
Santana ~ Belly Dance to Black Magic Woman
Santana plays Black Magic Woman dubbed over a video of Alla Kushnir (Liela) as she dances a beautiful and mesmerizing belly dance. The video was filmed in 2006 at the City festival in Nikolaev, Ukraine where she was named Miss Belly Dance of Europe 2008, winner of Ukranian Belly Dance Championship 2007 and 2008 and runner up in a few others.
“Black Magic Woman” is a song written by Peter Green that first appeared as a Fleetwood Mac single in various countries in 1968, subsequently appearing on the 1969 Fleetwood Mac compilation albums English Rose (US) and The Pious Bird of Good Omen (UK). It became a classic hit by Santana and sung by Gregg Rolie in 1970, reaching #4 in the U.S. and Canadian charts, after appearing on their Abraxas album. The song became more closely associated with Santana than Fleetwood Mac.

I’ve Got A Feelin (today’s gonna be a good day) – Black Eyed Peas
Like the Black Eyed Peas…
Choose to make it a GREAT Day 😉
The Black Eyed Peas is an American hip hop group. The Black Eyed Peas consists of rappers will.i.am, apl.de.ap, Taboo, and singer Fergie. Originally the band was an alternative hip hop group, but the Black Eyed Peas have subsequently added music from R&B, pop, and EDM/dance influences. While the Black Eyed Peas was founded in Los Angeles in 1995, the band was not formally recognized until the release of their third album Elephunk in 2003 that they found widespread acclaim and achieved high record sales. Since that time, the group has sold an estimated 56 million records worldwide.[2] Based on the ratings of the Nielsen SoundScan, the Black Eyed Peas were the second-best-selling artist/group of all time for downloaded tracks, with over 42 million sales as of the end of 2011.[3]
The Black Eyed Peas first major hit was made with the 2003 single “Where Is the Love?” from their album Elephunk, which also went over the top charts in 13 countries like the United Kingdom. The Black eyed Peas also spent seven (7) weeks as the number one band and continued to become Great Britain’s largest selling music single of 2003. Another single music hit in Europe came from the Elephunk album was “Shut Up“. Their fourth album, Monkey Business, was an even bigger worldwide success, certified 4× Platinum in the U.S., and spawning four singles, “Don’t Phunk with My Heart“, “Don’t Lie“, “My Humps” and “Pump It“. In 2009, the group became one of only 11 artists to have simultaneously held the No. 1 and No. 2 spots on the Billboard Hot 100, with their singles “Boom Boom Pow” and “I Gotta Feeling“, which topped the chart for an unprecedented 26 consecutive weeks. This album The E.N.D. later produced a third Hot 100 number-one placement with “Imma Be“, making the group one of few to ever place three number one singles on the chart from the same album, before being followed with “Rock That Body” and “Meet Me Halfway“, which peaked in the Top 10 of the Hot 100. “I Gotta Feeling” became the first single to sell more than one million downloads in the United Kingdom.[4]
The Black Eyed Peas were ranked 12th on Billboard‘s Decade-End Chart Artist of the Decade, and 7th in the Hot 100 Artists of the Decade. At the 52nd Grammy Awards ceremony, held in January 2010, they won three awards out of six nominations. In November 2010, they released the album The Beginning. In February 2011, the group performed at theSuper Bowl XLV halftime show. The album’s first two singles, “The Time (Dirty Bit)” and “Just Can’t Get Enough“, became international hits and topped the charts in many countries. The single Don’t Stop The Party became an international hit too.

Save Ferris – Come On Eileen
Save Ferris
Come On Eileen, sung by Monique Powell
Its 1997 and the band Save Ferris released their first album, It Means Everything, featuring vocalist Monique Powell who was perceived as the next Gwen Stefani (from the band No Doubt). 
Monique was born in Orange County, CA, on August 20, 1975. When Powell was a child, her desire was to be a ballerina, but a sudden spurt of growth prevented her from achieving that aspiration. While Monique Powell was attending college, she began her life-time adventure in the Southern California ska music scene. She joined an all-female ska band, but the music team broke up after their first performance. Monique moved on, and while she was providing vocals for the the group LARRY, she was discovered by members of the early Save Ferris band who were inspired by Powell’s style and sound. Following this, Ms. Powell was asked to be the front line representative and vocalist for Save Ferris. So, with Monique Powell leading the group’s image and sound, the Save Ferris band was signed to Epic Records in 1997. It is also interesting to note that prior to this, the band No Doubt had achieved a multi-platinum sales record with very similar music; a combination of ska and punk. And this was done a year before Epic Records discovered Save Ferris, hence the Save Ferris band become viewed by some music observers as a copycat. Making matters worse, Monique was being criticized as a Gwen Stefani imitator. None the less, Monique’s contagious, venomous vocal tone has found an audience of her own. As shown in the video above, Monique Powell and Save Ferris’ cover of Dexy’s Midnight Runners’ MTV classic “Come on Eileen” demonstrates her affection for ’80s new wave. Still, this has done little to convey that her group possessed any originality. Finally, the Save Ferris’ 1999 album Modified was a big commercial disappointment. Since then, the original instrumentalists of the Save Ferris band have quit working with Monique, but she continues pushing forward with her sound and the name Save Ferris with new musicians backing her.
Monique Powell is the female vocalist who makes the Save Ferris band

Racing the World
Steve Vai has been called a guitar virtuoso. His 1990 album Passion and Warfare is often cited by critics and fans alike as among his best works. Particularly the instrumental “For the Love of God” has received a lot of attention from the music press, and is noteworthy in that the entire six-minute piece was reportedly recorded in just one take. Vai’s playing style has been characterized as quirky and angular, due to his technical ability with the guitar instrument and deep knowledge of music theory. He regularly uses odd rhythmic groupings and his melodies often employ the Lydian mode.
Perhaps his most readily-identifiable stylistic feature is his creative use of the floating vibrato, using it to add melodic lines that sound odd to the ear. His playing can be described as lyrical, as if sung by a human voice. During the recording of “Eat ’em and Smile” with David Lee Roth, he employed several guitar techniques that “mimicked” the human voice, as heard in the opening bars of the opening track “Yankee Rose.” He is noted for being physically expressive as he plays his guitar. He often uses exotic guitars: he plays both double and triple neck guitars.
In this video, Steve demonstrates an Ibanez guitar using the wammy / vibrato bar to create sonic sounds not commonly heard, but he sets them into a very melodic line of the song.

Amanda Palmer and Digital Sharing: Music Artists Can and Should Be Directly Supported By Fans
Amanda Palmer and the Grand Theft Orchestra
In the opinion of Amanda Palmer: “Don’t make people pay for music, let them.” You will see in the following video a compelling and passionate presentation that begins with Amanda Palmer‘s days as a street performer in which she dressed as an Eight-Foot tall bride for collecting dollar donations in a hat. Starting with this image, she presents and examines the current digital paradigm for developing new relationship between a music artist (herself) and a following of fans, all to the tune of over one-million dollars.
Alt-rock icon Amanda Palmer believes we shouldn’t fight the fact that digital content is freely shareable — and suggests that artists can and should be directly supported by fans.
Read Amanda Palmer’s: Full bio »
Take a moment to read and hear Amanda’s “The Bed Song”:
“The Bed Song”
Exhibit A
We are friends in a sleeping bag splitting the heat
We have one filthy pillow to share and your lips are in my hair
Someone upstairs has a rat that we laughed at
And people are drinking
And singing Van Halen and Slayer on a ukulele tear
Exhibit B
Well, we found an apartment
It’s not much to look at
A futon on a floor
Torn-off desktop for a door
All the decor’s made of milk crates and duct tape
And if we have sex
They can hear us through the floor
But we don’t do that anymoreAnd I lay there wondering, what is the matter?
Is this a matter of worse or of better?
You took the blanket, so I took the bedsheet
But I would have held you if you’d onlyLet me
Exhibit C
Look how quaint
And how quiet and private
Our paychecks have bought us a condo in town
It’s the nicest flat around
You picked a mattress and had it delivered
And I walked upstairs
And the sight of it made my heart pound
And I wrapped my arms around me
And I stood there wondering, what is the matter?
Is this a matter of worse or of better?
You walked right past me and straightened the covers
But I would still love you if you wanted a lover
And you said
All the money in the world
Won’t buy a bed so big and wide
To guarantee that you won’t accidentally touch me
In the night
Exhibit D
Now we’re both mostly paralyzed
Don’t know how long we’ve been lying here in fear
Too afraid to even feel
I find my glasses and you turn the light out
Roll off on your side
Like you’ve rolled away for years
Holding back those king-size tears
And I still don’t ask you, what is the matter?
Is this a matter of worse or of better?
You take the heart failure
I’ll take the cancer
I’ve long stopped wondering why you don’t answer
Exhibit E
You can certainly see how fulfilling a life
From the cost and size of stone of our final resting home
We got some nice ones right under a cherry tree
You and me lying the only way we know
Side by side and still and cold
And I finally ask you, what was the matter?
Was it a matter of worse or of better?
You stretch your arms out and finally face me
You say I would have told you
If you’d only asked me
If you’d only asked me
If you’d only asked me
Resonant Chamber Music – An Animusic HP video
Animusic Movies: What Are They?
Imagine six (6) different string instruments connected to a common resonating body chamber, all being played by mechanical fingers. Here it is, the classic Animusic very well done:
Imagine what Animusic would look like to Trans Siberian Orchestra !
So, you may ask what is Animusic?
Animusic is a challenge to to describe since it is not like other forms of music which is what makes it unique. Much like Pixar movies, these audio-video extravaganzas are computer-generated, photo-realistic animations.
Each movie is absent of people, animals, dialogue, and singing, but instead are full of abstract alien instruments that are played robotic fingers or creatures as well as pulsating lasers. For example, in “Resonant Chamber,” delicate bird-like robotic fingers pluck and play a guitar with nine necks. In “Pipe Dream” several string and percussion instruments of different types are struck with impeccable timing by balls that are fired from pipe cannons. And, in “Pogo Sticks,” body-less bass-like instruments each with two strings are seen balancing on one wheel as they cruise and boogie through a 3-Dimensional tunneled landscape.
Animusic Core Characteristics
With Animusic the core concept is entirely new, but elements that make it work are all too familiar from the likes of renown media such as “Metropolis,” “Alien,” digital games, Disneyland, laser shows, Spielberg movies, MTV, Electric Light Orchestra, and even science museums and great church cathedrals. If it were not for the the music, some of the animusic videos might be called creepy weird science fiction. A major characteristic of the music is the digital layers of rhythmic techno rock which goes well with the visual characteristics suggesting space-age, interplanetary, foreign, bizarre species of incredibly talented music machines.
The Passion of Animusic Studio
Wayne Lytle is the programmer, music composer who has followed his passion and made his occupation the creation of Animusic Studio Software. As of November 2007, Wayne says they have been doing well enough to move into some really nice office/studio space after having worked at home and has spent over a decade perfecting the animusic art form. After many years of custom-programming, Wayne’s proprietary software now generates the animation of the objects, automatically. Specifically and using “Resonant Chamber” as an example, Animusic Studio Software manipulates the fingers, hammers and pluckers of the robots based upon a Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) file fed to it. When the MIDI music file is altered, the animation is effortlessly regenerated following a production outline given the animusic software.
Because of the high integration of animation and music computer software, the rendering of the video musical instruments are sonically accurate, meaning every time a specific drum is struck, a key pressed, or a string plucked, it always produces the same pitch. (There’s still plenty of hand animation, of course, primarily having to do with the lighting, “camera moves,” set and character movements.)
As each new version of Animusic Studio Software is released, the public simply finds the product richer and more sophisticated, and the people’s response, well most of them simply gape in amazement as to what the Animusic can do.
Video animation industry experts and critics continue to question Mr. Lytle’s motivation for creating the software and what he should do with Animusic. Suggestions for usefulness include “Play it on big plasmas in dance clubs!”; “Music teachers in schools should show this to the kids!”, and the common “Sell Animusic to Pixar!” At conferences for education and technology, the frequent questions are “What’s the target age group?” “What’s your educational philosophy?” “Why isn’t it interactive?” But no matter who is asking the questions, among all viewers of audio and video produced by Animusic Studio Software, the consensus is that it’s just plain cool.
Animusic DVDs For Sale
One can find, see, hear and enjoy Animusic tracks at www.animusic.com. Note, the effect of the audio videos on DVD when played on large screen TV are many times a more powerful experience, particularly played through a big, 5.1 Dolby surround sound system. The Animusic web site is where you can buy the DVD’s at $20 each (or $35 for a pair). As the cult of Animusic fans has grown virally on the internet, Mr. Lytle says sales has grown to 60,000 copies of the first disc over the years.
Wayne Lytle with his team producing Animusic may very well be a prominent example of something special in the way that technology can give a voice and a canvas to otherwise undiscovered talent in an artist. In the case of Animusic, that talent is prodigious, and the resulting works of art are awe-inspiring.
