Detours - An Experimental Dance Collaboration - Parallels

[summonskall]

i understand that it is almost impossible to do something that no-ones done before us... the beginning of the journey was about 4 billion years ago, since then thousands of billions of people and animals have lived on this planet, in that time i find it hard to believe that there's something our ancestors missed. even with enhanced mutations leading to flexibility, strength, or other things, the body only has a limited amount of movements... were just a river flowing over a bed of roots...

[summonskall]

still fantastic! :D

[summonskall]

still fantastic! :D

[summonskall]

[CRozzOver]

8:43 THAT shit is not natural.

[ErzulShadowmoon]

very nice video

[CRozzOver]

@WonderUPSB Yes it does but unfortunately it is wasted on this community, no HD, no mainstream appeal = less views....so unfortunate it actually makes me want to cry.

[DapDapRice]

so really bboying has been around for a hell of a long time

[SingJiya]

This video is to long, can you edit about out about 9:56 seconds? Thanks I think it will be more entertaining then. Black people did not start dance anyway!

[SingJiya]

Can you clean up your potty mouth? This video is Crap!

[ElectroRain82]

@SingJiya are you serious? Shut up you ignorant shit

[stetsosonic]

[MyIdeas97]

THIS NEEDED TO BE BROUGHT TO ATTENTION AS NOTHING IS REALLY NEW ITS JUST A HYBRID OF DIFFERENT DANCE FORMS FROM ALL ACROSS THE GLOBE & CULTUR'E'S , YOUR RITE ON THE MONEY WITH THIS FOOTAGE WORD TO YOU MIDUS PEACE & KNOWLEDGE FROM PERIL ZULU NATION AUSTRALIA!

[CocoFreshSSC]

Nothing new it seems...Nobody invented ish new!!!!

[demiyang88]

So inspirational.. Love this.. Knwledge..

[bizz76]

this video made me think about this statement ''nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed''

[bloodbws5]

whats the part from 3:10. i remember when i was like in 4th grade our pe teacher was having us do a dance unit and he showed us that video as an example. im talking about when the guys are doing splits on the stairs.

[robheaton123]

GoD!!!!

[robheaton123]

foda!!

[Lkeim18]

This is AWESOME!!!!!

[njpr23]

WOOW....SICK ASS VIDEO..!!!

[lj78uk]

What's the name of the black guy at 1:02?

Is he dancing at rocksteady park?

[sarubboy]

dont agree with what crazy legs said!

bboy's made up tons of shit!

[54321ade]

name some

[bboyStuntZ]

@sarubboy what crazy legs said is not far off. This is only 10mins of footage. Imagine all the other stuff not shown here that may have been done in the past that bboys/ bgirls do now. Bboys made up combinations and the style in which the moves are done but a heck of allot of moves have been done before.

[MugenNoKarayami]

3:21  Epiccc

[thehoofersclub]

Outstanding and Thank You!.. Tell the like it is. Even on Youtube, I come across so many videos label as "New style this or New style that. " This shit has always been around throughout the ages of mankind. Through, there no names to these dances. People just did them.

[te2rx]

Detours DVD is now downloadable from TPB.

[harrycool678]

[bmwmoto19]

[cylus28]

[markohu]

INTERESTING

FROM ITALY

[777Radux]

at this time is an devised many new movements

[fivefoflow]

I knew the air walk and backslide came from decades ago, I know the spongebob is actual the charleston. But this opens my mind up so much more.

[SkunkyBeaumont]

People have probably been doing the charleston before anyone decided to give it a name.

[rikomatic]

What a remarkable compilation of videos. Thanks so much for putting this together and sharing it with the world.

[joecool3bx]

midus is the truth!

[pylu]

really cool! it's the ultimate manifest towards dancing and especially bboyin'... that's some nice footage and editing... respect:)>-

[PatrickKarijo]

AMEN TO THAT!!

[AllowExpression]

This has been one of the most educational pieces of footage I've come over on youtube. At last something real.

[shvru]

wow great vid :D

[titamala]

cara esse video é fera de mais assim gostaria de saber o nome da musica de fundo e o nome dessas danças antigas dos top rock tenebroso mesmo adorei cada parte do video

loko loko loko!!!!!!!!

[theogore]

Teachers should show this to students as an intro. It is ingenious and comprehensive.

[mind00ze]

Probably the best video i've seen. Keep'em comin'

[RollerAppie]

where can i find some b boy music

[D4nceAddicti0n]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh­hh this is the reallllll deal!!! Damn thanks for posting this

[effects69]

wow that was awsome

[Json1990Tee]

it like fashion...fashion come n go but style is there...so for me dance also the same....the thing is same but style always b the different

[delo1k4]

dat dude at 1:50 killed that flip off the the wall and it was too old to be fake

[raymondlarios]

the video made his little comment kind of true, but other then that its kind of false.

what song is that!

[alisub]

ok tell me master

[alisub]

I think this is one of the most amazing videos on youtube.

[judyvas]

GOOD

[3epk]

cool

[stevenaball333]

A great insight into the origins of modern dance. Thankyou.

[Aburussu]

This video provoques us the idea that the human body is a network, every individual research on dance, doesn´t matter it´s style of dancing, is on constant dialog with other cultures, other dances, because, it´s just a human being dancing. Today we dance the eras of machine, man an annimals.

Thank you so much for the video!

Please watch the videos I´m doing inspired on detour´s videos. It´s called "brucutu #1" and "brucutu #2", soon I´ll be uploading more videos, please comment!

Leo

[Aburussu]

Very inspiring video, intelligent. It shows an very open minded idea of dance, that comunicates with us, brazilian dancers, and many other dancers of all over the world.

[BboyRaingo]

bilatibay nyo

[raymondpicasso]

good edit !!

[revolotus]

btw...can anyone tell me what song that is?

[SkunkyBeaumont]

Check the video description.

[revolotus]

I think this is one of the most amazing videos on youtube.

[pakoriau]

this is dop;DDD

[pukalele]

this is amazing and wordlessly beautiful. thank you for the post!

[Fidelio2]

This is an amazingly well edited video. The producer obviously has a deep love of dance and the human family. 5 stars edited video. Yje producer ovbiously has a deep love

[deathrebel1]

I can't believe there are only 4 comments so far. This is a fantastic piece of work. It's not only great for someone who's familiar with breaking, but would make a great educational tool for people who just think that breakdancing is something that hoodlums do.

Seeing the old jazz dancers from the 20s or so doing a full on floor routine blew my mind. Much credit to whoever edited this and thanks to whoever uploaded it. This is the kind of stuff that makes surfing Youtube worth it.

[Miquitzli]

WHARES THE OLD LOCING FOOTAGE FROM??(loks lek it was form the 70's)

[panoctopi]

beautiful... music is universal, so it does make sense that dance would also... thanks for celebrating the common threads and common wells of inspiration for all traditions of dancing.

supremnewyorkthing: you really should... nah never mind you're not really worth it... just keep going you'll get nowhere real fast.

[supremenewyorkthing]

I get it, so break dancing is just ripping off other dances and kangaroos, did you see that kangaroo? that's hilarious, it's like, yeah, all these other dances have been done before but this one move was taken from a kangaroo

[SpringSauce23]

don't think someone's made their igorance known to me any faster than this comment right here... funny that you thought this was all breakdance comparisons, yet another fact you know nothing about dance

[broseth]

Beautiful compilation. I would love it all the more if some citation was included in a corner of the screen.
