When i was a kid my dad brought me this record and when i started to hear it while closing my eyes i learned how to make my own dimension and i felt that i can control my own life and everything was positive ... and now my twelve year old son is learning the same thing and we apreciate isao tomitas creations!
One of my favorite recordings ever. This video is sourced from the surround version so it sounds a little strange, with stuff "disappearing" when it would be going into the rear channels.
@brumbaughh1 The only all Bach album that Tomita did was called Bach Fantasy but that was in 1996 and was that last of his classical works after a 12 year gap and released in Japan only. Maybe your thinking of another artist, there were quite a lot of Wendy Carlos/ Moog style bach interpritations in the 70's.
it reminds me so much of the old anime that I used to watch. the music w/ these animes sounded so much like this. i was so enthralled into the anime b/c of the music. this just brings back old memories
@PrZemek44: much of the bass in this video is lost during compression, I would say. If you listen very closely you can hear the voice sounding like a man humming very deeply.
this is not just easy sequences, this is real creativity and idea of detailed work of pictures at an eshibition, to reproduce the whole thing and the voices, and bass, oh boy... tremendous, so many years this is from the early 70's. quality...
me to... this song was and is the most important song in my life... because as i first heard it (i was about 9 or 10 years old) i imediatly knew that music was what i want to live for.
@bassmajor Me 2 my father had all of his records. I would listen to this breath taking music and it would take me to a safe place. And threw out my adult life the music was allways be there to comfort me and take me to my safe place. Hands down the best!!
Yes I think this must have been recorded in quad as it sounded almost like it on the original LP, certain parts of the tune seemed to go right round the room.
Have we really progressed I wonder?
I still think the old analogue stuff sounded better.
Well Fancy finding YOU here Derek! Ah.. The Greater Minds!
This is Proof that what digimaan said - The Older synths sound way better than the digital plugin world of predictable & over powering sounds that software has to offer.
Even the new Moog Voyager doesn't sound as good, because it's too controlled, too refined, too perfect.
The Original Mini-Moog® has a sound that cannot be matched. This is because the 2nd Oscillator Drifts ever so slightly, & it's the imperfections that are Unique :)
Wow that must be pretty cool sounding.. I wonder if there is a release of this on DVD because of the multi sound source support. You know, I think FLAC has support for multiple source non-lossy-compressed audio.
My video response was merely to attract people from my channel over to here.. The video is a demo of a free (open source) synth program called ZynAddSubFx (for linux) that reminds me a lot of Tomita's music.. But of course this album was made back in the 70s, and Tomita hand tuned oscillators on Moog synths and recorded to multi-track, one voice at a time (right?). Nobody was doing stuff like this, I doubt Wendy Carlos could touch him.. Sampling wasn't really available until 6 years later.
Oh my god! Yeah, I got to experience this album in the 80's and man, in the state of mind I was in the songs led me on such an imaginary journey like no other..... The orchestrated version of Pictures st an exhibition is just as wonderous. I thoroughly enjoy the levels Tomita takes us in his music.
Yeah this has to be the most erie sounding of all the Tomita I've heard. Great album, I bought it on Cd but they ruined the mix on the cd sadly. Stupid remastering nonesense! It was right the first time on the LP!
Wow... this really brings back the memories, I used to listen to that as a little girl. It was one of my father's records. I just loved it. I would lie on the floor of the living room and listen to it in the dark. Great music.
Thats fantastic!!! Me and my brothers would do the same, In the 70's my Dad would put on Tomita and we would all lay on the floor in the living room and listen...an amazing experience that has shaped my preference for electronic and ambient music...cool
damn!.

Ich bin schon lange Jahre Teil vom Ruhrgebiet. Aber Tomita war damals in der sogenannten Zone - und sicher nicht nur dort ein NOVUM.
Danke für Dein Upload!
