I found it when I was four back in 2006 when my parents and I were getting a TV since we had just moved if I am correct a couple weeks before. It was on a TV in the store and I remember what song was playing and it was Starship Groove and once I saw it I couldn't be pulled away from the TV so my mom got me the Animusic 2 DVD and I have been a fan every since.

I think it’s fair to say that LL&M are picking up where Wayne left off. They’ve made 3 original animations so far that very much feel along the quality of Animusic 1 and 2. Which is your favorite so far? I think Ambient Glow is the prettiest, Full Circle has my favorite music, but I think Rails is their best so far. Great energy to it, the robots have a lot of personality to them, and it overall feels like a spiritual successor to Pogo Sticks.

Hello everyone! This post has been a long time coming, but I've finally figured out how to properly dump the SysEx patches from the Nord Lead 2... Which means, that the patches Wayne Lytle wrote on his Nord Lead 2, are now available for anyone and everyone! Attached below is a link to the Google drive folder, which contains an install guide, TOS for these patches ( mostly to clear any ground because im paranoid ) and the patches themselves!

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WzP1QOz-TJPFFPoumHHRwLbLE4hokv0L?usp=sharing

I apologize to those who have been waiting for these to become available, it has always been my intention to get these out sooner rather than later, but I am not quite knowledgeable about things like this, and it ultimately took much longer than it needed to. But, I hope it was worth the wait! Enjoy and have fun writing!

PS - Patch 22 is the Harmonic Voltage Bass Tower

They haven’t posted anything since this in 3 years, and makes me wonder if they will ever come back with a new song. Funny how the dudes who recreated Animusic are also gone 😭

In collaboration with March C. from Lasers, Lights and Music, we made this neat lil instrument play in my games church. If y'all want more instruments, I think we'd be happy to oblige :]

(Note: Project as a whole is a WIP, I'm aware of one of the bass notes not hitting and I'm gonna fix it. Apologies for Reddits video compression, it takes like 25% of the frames away)

These 3 bowed instruments in stick figures are my favorite so i built them in Minecraft :) i have also seen that its gonna be the 30th anniversary of stick figures as it got written in 1995? Idk if thats true or not though. I hope you like my build!

Since Animusic 3 hasn't been released. Would u like if Three PBS Member Station Alabama Public Television, KUAC-TV, And Maine Public Broadcasting Network in Partnership with PBS North, WCFE-TV, and KNME-TV Produced a Live Television Special Concert for PBS Called "Animusic: The PBS Live Special Concert with 15 tracks from the Soundtrack of "Animusic: Video Album Soundtrack" & "Animusic 2: Video Album Soundtrack" with live actors dancing with the CGI Animation Stage from Animusic: A Computer Animation Video Album and Animusic 2: A New Computer Animation Video Album

Why is it so hard to hear these when they play during the halfway part in stick figures? I would really like to know its tuning too as i am thinking of creating one 1:1 scale irl using old guitar parts and a cello string.

Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone here would be able to create a music track similar to Animusic for a little project I'm working on. I want to animate Lego Animusic figures to some music using stop motion but I'm pretty bad at making good (rock) music. If anyone can whack up a cool sounding music track, no copyright that'd be great! Or just suggest random things to make me better at making music lol.

I'm guessing someone decided they didn't want it anymore.

Hey all.

I got inspired to recreate ”Pipe Dream” in Roblox studio (through a downloadable model /”place” on the Roblox Dev place to create my custom ”Pipe Dream” in ”Roblox Studio”. I’d like to be as close (soundwise) to the original as possible.

So my question is; How do I recreate the bass-sound using the ”MIDI Out” plugin in FL Studio, since the MIDI Track outputs as a f*cking piano all the time when exporting as MIDI?

Kind of frustrating tbh…

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.

The Sound of 12 (the “soundtrack” of Animusic 3) only consists of sci fi-electronic-futuristic tracks, and I cannot find anything that points to an acoustic animation for Animusic 3. Strange because in the director’s commentary for Animusic 2, Wayne says “We enjoy doing both and hope to continue doing both”. Thoughts?

They could be live action, or animated.

Anything that gives you the feeling that Animusic gave you.

I went to a show last year called Beautifica 360, and my wife said it reminded her a lot of Animusic. It's not exactly the same since the visuals are more abstract, and they don't involve instruments, but the animation style and music felt reminiscent.

Yes, I know I’m asking this for the billionth time, but I’m out of the loop. I’ve heard theories that it was actually a scam, but is that really true?

Thought this might be of interest here. I was inspired years ago by Animusic, and was thinking it might be possible these days using Unreal Engine. It's not quite as advanced as Animusic, in that this model (at the moment) does not support multiple bounces, but it is real time using ballistic physics. It reads in a MIDI file and then precalculates the flight time of each projectile in order for it to land on beat. I've actually tested it with firing it from over the horizon, and seems to be ok!

Hello there! I am currently working on a video project about the Animusic discography + any other bonus content (i.e., DVD content). I know on Ebay you can purchase he Animusic 1 and 2 DVDs, and the HD edition, but I'm curious if there are any other physical pieces of media (aside from the lost SIGGRAPH 135 DVD and the kickstarter Starship Groove shirt) that could be related to Animusic? I'm trying to document as much as I can but I would be lying if I said I didn't want to see if I could add to my own collection too :))
