BT - The Antikythera Mechanism

[enyskept]

BJORK!!

[Anzuo]

What a crazy song name. It's even spelt wrong in this video; should be "The Anhtkythera Mechanism"

[subliminalmethods]

@Anzuo Actually, it is spelled Antikythera Mechanism pretty much everywhere you look—just check Google.

[Anzuo]

@subliminalmethods .... so it is. -_-

[DMItracks]

@Anzuo lol umm no

[blubber180]

Quantic Destinyyy :)) ♥

[AeroLancaster]

Does anyone know where I can possibly buy this song? I've yet to see it appear on iTunes for some bizarre, unknown reason. D:

[Harbinger631]

This song reminds me of Mirror's Edge for some reason.

[putkofff]

all human interaction void

[NoxShad2222]

BT is a god. Hands down, genius. I support you BT in your musical expressions.

[digitallynative]

Absolutely stunning!

[PunkDollie10]

[timwun]

why dose music have to be outlined with genres.. can something just be what it is ..

[Disturbed246810]

Still. Very beautiful and soothing music.

[Disturbed246810]

The video....was made....BY YOU?!

.....HOLY SHIT. Impressive. I like it.

[Fiddlestickz1]

This music pierces right through your soul.

[KathyReedTheOriginal]

Antikythera Mechanism. Fuck yeah!

[Pflaumenvirus117]

Do you have the Song on PC?

I would like it, but without Youtube to mp3 converter ^^ bad quality

[codyxwx]

@Pflaumenvirus117 I download it in FLAC (the whole album), then convert it to Wav to put it on my iTunes for my iPod. Quality is good. But remember your headphones are doing 90% of the sound quality. I use xxrecode II (very good).

[Pflaumenvirus117]

Do you have the Song on PC?

I would loke it, but without Youtube to mp3 converter ^^ bad quality

[Tyroniix]

What Is An AntiKythera Mechanism??

[tpacemaker2]

@Tyroniix

Google does wonders, my friend. Use it :)

[lordfrikk]

@Tyroniix An awesome song.

[mark9241]

I literally fell asleep lol. is it suppose to do that?

[pendulumroxs]

i really wanna learn the notes to this song. it's so beautiful. bt truly has talent. i always knew that someday someone will recognize it and someone did. this is an example why he won that Grammy Award. this is such a perfect song.

This. Is. My. Lullaby. <3

[SurTensionMusic]

I've found it after some years ! What kind of music is this fantastic album of BT ? I will answer to you that BT is kind of Psybient ! Try this music, it's really awesome, but BT is actually one of the best (in my opinion).

[latnahc]

i smell curry in here.....

ohw no wait its bullshit!

[sorachicken]

could you tell me where the clip 7:05 - 7:34 is from?

[subliminalmethods]

@sorachicken — That clip is from the video for "Dynamic Symmetry by BT.

[teenyloc]

ohhhh my goddness. this song is so relaxing im in love with it. this is the 2nd song from bt i like so far. i thought all his shit was annoying as fuck til some guy told me to check out a few songs i might like. Dynamic Symmestry, Antikythera Mechanism are fucken d0pe. the list also included: forget me, Always, The Other Side...

[one2other]

SILENT HILL!!!!!

[brokenbylaw2]

forever shall we wonder, until our insight overwhelms us with emotion

at that point, in your rawest form

may you discover, what the universe need tell you.

[tpacemaker2]

@brokenbylaw2

is that quote from somewhere, or just from your mind? Just curious, it's very profound.

[brokenbylaw2]

@tpacemaker2 I smoke many weeds of plants yummy says jah's cannabis!

[Hr9C0]

Amazing.

[Dj4NG3L1T0]

song of the gods d(u.u)b

[sHaK34Bobb]

Electro Chillout is the genre

[PublicEnemy24]

this is nasty!

[asianbeverage]

did BT sample this? or did he produce all of these sounds himself. either way, hes a great producer.

[beatsanctuary]

@asianbeverage

All self produced..musically and engineered too

[jimbarrow]

An epic work. This allows me to step back from my day-to-day activities, pause, and really think about why we are all here. I return to this whenever I am having an existential crises.

[NoxShad2222]

@jimbarrow I feel so similar. When it gets to the end with the black lines on white i feel so small. Creation and destruction all in one video and yes, there is more to all of nature than the ho-hum of day to day. I think there-for, i am comes to mind.

[SynerJetics]

She found Metaron's Cube to access the Matrix Mainframe. Quantum overide.

[Alandric191]

BT is a musical prodigy and for ANYONE to say that his music is anything short of perfection is ignorant.

[Berkutinho]

What's name of the video? (6:43 - 6:56)

[subliminalmethods]

@Berkutinho Those shots are both from different parts of the Animatrix. It has nine short stories about the Matrix in different styles of animation and by (I believe) seven different directors. The first part is from the one titled "The Second Renaissance," and the second part is from "The Final Flight of the Osiris."

[Indigozek]

6:30 is so epic

[darkspirtninja]

love it when it gets to 6:18

[RebusValstay]

This song alone was reason enough to purchase the disc for this album. Great musician, great album.

[Mmorgoth90]

I <3 it

[judgegunner]

i personaly dont think brian will make another album like this binary universe you can see feel that with this album hes given himself to the album its a fantastic groundbreaking masterpiece to a man who has transcend genre after genre even these hopful machines is fantastic i love his work thank you bt for the beautiful music

[quintopia]

it's not the original video, no, but it samples it quite heavily. i think it samples almost all of the videos on that dvd at some point. i recognized some of the other samples as well.

[shavingronaldscar]

This is so gorgeous...

[SSdraken]

sweet video editing and gorgeous music. its a shame you letterboxed the video though (exported in 4:3 but put black bands at the top and bottom?). Could be wrong, but thats what it looks like :)

[hotshot87]

Freaky. This is almost exactly what I imagine while listening to this song.

[ferdlance]

of course it's patched! i believe one of the anime scenes is from something about matrix shortfilms... however, the song is complete and the whole beginning is from the dvd

[DUFEftw]

what kinda genre is this?

[subliminalmethods]

@DUFEftw I would call it experimental electronica. It's a mix of BT's signature stutter techniques and electronic mastery combined with orchestral and organic elements.

[realsoccerdude123]

@subliminalmethods - 5.1 genre.Listen to 1.618 too

[pishposh86]

@subliminalmethods Those are not "stuttering techniques" and this is not experimental. I take it you haven't heard of Autechre, Funkstorung, Aleksi Perala, Richard Devine, Aphex Twin, Phoenecia, Tapage, etc. BT is very talented, but he totally borders on conventional...which doesn't have to be a bad thing. And sorry to sound pretentious, but "electronica" is not a genre, it was some stupid attempt by Spin magazine to coin a cutting edge word, and has no specific meaning. Just say electronic...

[zergmeisterstarcraft]

@pishposh86 i take it, you don't like the music, and goes to much into details, no one cares about...

[Berkutinho]

@DUFEftw

This is Ambient / IDM / Modern Classical.

[psylinx]

@DUFEftw In the Electronica realm, I would say under "Ambient" or as Subliminal said "Experimental Electronica".

[schlik]

@DUFEftw

i recall bt referring to TBU as being an experimental electro exploration of post-modern classical music . so basically post-moden classical music thru bt's ears...

[dinmamma333k]

1:26

[RpGfranco]

Kaiaaa ♥♥

[kimshuz]

got hypnotized.

[noobguitarist1231231]

Really nice video, did you get a good mark?

[ckret2]

Beatiful video to go with a beautiful song! Good work on this. Many vids like this often feel like they were patched together from different clips, but this doesn't in the least. Very nice.

Just out of curiosity, is this the whole song? I haven't heard this song before, and since YouTube only always 10 minute videos (give or take a few seconds) I can't tell whether you edited anything out of the song to make it fit.

(But if you did, it was seamless enough that I couldn't tell, so.)

[subliminalmethods]

Thank you, and yes, this is the entire track--I originally wanted to make the video shorter, but couldn't bring myself to cut any of the song.

[CookieKing1]

@subliminalmethods Ha ha! I don't blame you, I could not do it either. It's almost like trying to resist a little puppy with sad eyes and drooping ears. But thank you for posting this song and combining it with beautiful visuals. I needed a BT fix and I'm glad that you were able to provide it.

[bislProductionz]

7:00 clip was used in a taking back sunday video, make damn sure i think

[Phyla1]

Fantastic job!

[drionsh]

3:16 to 3:19 is amazing

[lekkki1]

beautiful work, subliminal, can I ask what software you were using?

[subliminalmethods]

First of all, thank you. And I only use Sony Vegas for my video editing. I'd use Adobe but I find it too complicated, even though I use it for practically everything else.

[Ichliebemusikundybd]

An absolute masterpiece is what this song is! Good choice of clips for this video/song subliminalmethods

[subliminalmethods]

thank you--that is much appreciated.

[imanselmo]

This is the video from the BT DVD that I have. How is this not the official video?

[subliminalmethods]

If you watch the video, there are parts from a few of the videos from This Binary Universe, however, much of the content was pulled from different sources and all compiled together.

[imanselmo]

haha.  Yeah, sorry. I just realized that.

[imanselmo]

Oh wait...there are other video clips in there.

[stephenwilley]

Nice job. Well sequenced with the more glitchy bits right at the end :-)

[shadedside]

brain food...

[ninsotq]

some of it is from TBU but really good vid.

[icina666]

BEAUTIFUL

[ninsotq]

whoa sorry i missread what you typed

[AtlanteanStar]

The visual images and editing to this track is pure genius!

[TimoV16]

Woohooh .. nice track. 06:20 it's beginning to get wiildd.. and 6:30 it is wiiiildd <3

[Rodriquez124]

One of the most touching music tracks i know, pure magic!

[Guiltyx23]

How can people post such negative things in such a gorgeous video? I mean really. Go somewhere else. Leave us all alone to enjoy and appreciate this beauty that's playing on our ears. Just because you can't doesn't mean you have to be nasty to the ones who can.

[blackatmac]

@Guiltyx23 everyone has there own opinions -.-

[kellygill23]

bt's a classicaly trained musician so it doesnt surprise me theat it reminds ppl of american beauty, altho this is so much more!!!! an awesome musician altogether!!! and yes it is of sasha's caliber!!

[THEFOODFATHER]

Amazing song. Love the piano work at the 1:30 mark, for some reason it reminds me of American Beauty, anyone else???

[cynewulf1]

Hmm. Why does this video change to the video for 1.618 half way through?

[echosaisis]

lol

[aristophron]

This dorian composition proves BT's talent for making more with less. Tranquility and serenity never before were expressed more eloquently in such a minimalistic way...

[happyboab]

lol wut

[aristophron]

Lol ''wut''? Just open up your ears...

[RinSa666]

this is the 1.618 video

[subliminalmethods]

No, this has elements from different videos, including 1.618 and The Antikythera Mechanism, but also a lot of other clips, if you took the time to actually watch.

[NoxShad2222]

Either way you carried the mood very well. Thank you.

[darudeboy1234567]

...this video has changed my life! my favourite track was wavy gravy but now it is this!

[whatwhatwhat7]

ya definitely reminds me of Airdrawndagger material

[fabifutbol]

What is a Antikythera Mechanism?

[NeufeldIan]

Ask Google.

[Hexnilium]

I'm going to start telling people this from now on. People need to learn how to look up their own answers. haha

[ProgDrummerQ]

Straight from Wikipedia...

"The Antikythera mechanism is an ancient mechanical calculator (also described as the first known mechanical computer designed to calculate astronomical positions. It was recovered in 1901 from the Antikythera wreck but its complexity and significance were not understood until decades later. It is now thought to have been built about 150100 BC. Technological artifacts of similar complexity did not reappear until a thousand years later."

[dec20056]

i think u mean 150-100 bc cuz else thats just insane and would only really be made by alien influence

[RaVe4EvR122]

the antikythera mechanism was the worlds first analogue computer used for calculating the position of planets etc. Look it up on wikipedia if you want some more facts about it ^.^

[ddstar]

you would think if people were curious they would do what you just typed... right?

almost like... hey.. if im hungry.. maybe I should open the fridge...

[RaVe4EvR122]

And you would think that mabey one day people like you would be able to get over their ego and avoid posting negative comments when someone is simply trying to help someone else. But you coudn't resist could you, you had to have a go at me simply because you feel the need to put someone down for making a mistake yes good job shows how mature you are doesn't it.

[ProgDrummerQ]

great song one of my favorites actully...its too bad it reminds me of sad memories =(

[Ford042]

This song is resonating in harmony with every fibre of my being... if that means anything :)

[aristophron]

My very sentiments exactly...

[lordkromdar]

this song was amazing on shrooms

[dscarrillo24]

So beautiful.

[EasyBakeSmiles]

this is the song of life.

[awazha]

foooking awesome mates ....

graaaate toonesss

[ProSneakyD]

an absolute masterpiece, i like how the song builds up to some dramatic orchestra, there should be more songs like this.

[8mobeus8]

i love this song, bt is actually amazing, the way the song builds up and then decomposes is fantastic

by the way, if anyone wants to know how to make a silver bangle that looks awesome in under 3 minutes check out the how-to vid on my channel :)

[craneteam87]

wow thanks for that how-to!

[DjOssa]

What an amazing song. BT is such a gifted musician!

[NoxShad2222]

Great stuff right here.  Thumbs held high.

[NoxShad2222]

Thanks all

[NoxShad2222]

Thanks BT

[deceit7]

Remarkable video I must say. This tune is one of my favorite in " This Binary Universe" . Especially the part where it makes a transition from something serene/suttle to a war-conflict warfare theme. Absolutely incredulous.

[x00m99]

bittersweet yes

[TehComedown]

i love how bt tunes make me feel sad but happy and i don't know how it does it.

[raruenify]

BT <3

[girl5874]

Amazing. Words can't describe this, it's just beyond amazing.

[branahawk]

actually, quite a few parts are from the official video ^^ it's either that or some very realistic re-making

[urka111]

BT really makes fabulous music, also this unofficial vid is awesome...

bt is more a true artist than just a dj...

[Kainspear]

The best thing to do while listening to this song, is lay out in the grass on a warm summer day have this playing on head phones so no other sound is distorting this song. And close your eyes and think of exploring something fantastic, whether it be on Earth or somewhere in the Cosmos... The actual Antikythera Mechanism is the true beauty behind this majestic rhythm of harmony.

[slimjim5984]

that sounds perfect!

[hannishan]

This is exactly why I love BT. I have only recently discovered his album and it's auditory heaven

[slimjim5984]

This is the first tune i knew BT had done,

I cannot believe that ive only just discovered him inm the past 3days! I'm truely appalled with myself for not knowing sooner! now im on the hunt for everything he's ever done xD

[baronvonbeandip]

There's a really nice mix of Flaming June (his most popular and, imo, his best song) out there that destroys this song in comparison.

[dardasvic]

this song feels so.. so heavenly...it makes you feel like u swim in a sea of white clouds...

[NoxShad2222]

Totally great vid subliminal. Absolutly love it. IMHO much better than most pro vids. Great job. Three days eh. Skillzz there! :)

[ribbaldurinbibbi]

Love BT!

[DJDonaL3000]

Dey need ta put a donk on it...

[einekuss]

What does that even mean!??

[skylarkskank]

it's a hood english term from the northern part of the UK. look up Donk music and you'll find a ton of shit related to it.

[koninr]

I search this music for a long time... I was sending mails to the community to harvest youtube which avait organic produce videos of BT to know if she knew this music, I was therefore made tired I clicked on a video haphazardly and as incidentally I fall on this music, it's...it's incredible !!!

Destiny is very well organized no ? =DDDD

[Numba1boxa]

where did you get this song?

[subliminalmethods]

The song is "The Antikythera Mechanism" by BT, from his most recent album, This Binary Universe.

[FreedomBeats]

3:56

[norway003]

[domcurr]

Pure Awesomeness :)

[daddyleon]

[hopintheroflcopter]

Haha!

[FreedomBeats]

Yes mate, this song is genius.

Well done on the video by the way.

[Deedi88]

Epic.

[RedIceGTA]

The only song I like from BT is Kimosabe. Just Kimosabe!

[Parteque]

[hopintheroflcopter]

Aww man, you gotta love Madskillz!

[ColdingoVich]
