[o0SaN0o]

[DaAznT1m]

OHHHHHHHH......OHHHHHHHHH.OHHH­HHHHHHHhhHHH



[davidshim77]

there too cool for music....lol

[bboyhihe]

wow ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[vans1307]

lol name of the song's "wow waaaa aaaaa wow" XD ... Big respect for MOO mad creativity

[SvnDemons]

This performance gives me chills every time.

[smeerios]

Bboy Issue is godly

[atown2k3]

Whoaaaaaaaaaaaa....whoaaa....w­hoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa- LOL ffunny crowd.

very creative indeed!

[LostExistenceCrew]

they're dancing to their heartbeat.

[bboydizzy69]

korean crowds get impresed by any thing.. all they did was jst rise up in the begining and all u here is..WOAHHHHHH... i forgot the blond haired guys name.. but all he was doing was just little footwork..and he crashed a few times.. .and they were all lke.WOAHHHHHH.. lke realy they were mad basic with it.. but still was alright

[leoris87]

are you kidding me? every single movement was intricate and very hard. if you can pull of any of the movements you see in this video then speak up. this show was not just alright. it was godly. it does not deserve criticism from a noob bboy who probably does not even know how to do proper footwork.

[Tim2biT]

@bboydizzy69 haahah u kno nothin ~

[KillerDeadXero]

@bboydizzy69 not just koreans. all asians.

[jeffreyurbano]

that's pretty sick...

[uchihacedric]

I was speechless during the whole performance! Awsome and very creative!

[shevegen]

Yes, great idea, very difficult.

But still I like their show in 2006 more. I love music, I NEED MUSIC.

And the dolgo theme was totally cool.

[YeolWOe]

I was electrified when they finished..

Some people may say "what Korean bboys have is only technique. So we feel nothing from it. "

I wanna show this performence whoever says like that.

by the way, It must be extremely hard to do a team performence without music.

Nothing can be a basis or point to perform.

that Only they could do must've done a lot of practice...

I feel endless respectful..

[whckddnqq]

without music,,,

it's creative.

but,,, mmmmm

i don know,,

[flyskyairflair]

Now kids, according to the Bboy dictionary, creativity = Morning of Owl. Remember kids, whenever you hear the word "creativity", think Morning of Owl.

insannnneeeeeee. most people won't really appreciate how much thought and symbolism went into this piece. it's not just a dance without song, but there's so many references to deafness throughout the entire dance. choreographer is genius.

[blavgk2]

wow what a great performance

[electr0nic0]

amazing

[bboysaltillo]

haha i think they all have an iPod shuffle, and listen to the Show music xD

[NateZen]

One of the dopest shows of all time.

[sbrboi]

Wow, simply amazing. I understand some of you are scared about a bboy crew dancing without music, but doing it once is enough. MoO showed everyone how coordinated and synchronized their dancing can be WITHOUT having to depend on the beat of music.

That is why this doesn't only show their creativity, but their bond as a crew.

[bboynawm]

yea BUT! the world we live in, their type of talent/style wont take in to the general public till like 2011, or 2010 if theyre lucky

[BboyRandii]

does anyone know the song name at 2:11?

;)

[sbrboi]

BOTY soundtrack - Crowd Cheering

[krumpinTOWN]

OH DAYUM! WHATS THE NAME OF THE SONG? haahah justkidding.

[shevegen]

Yes princeaferd, it is very creative, but personally I love the music in shows. I like MoO a lot, and it was createive as said - but I hope they dont omit sound next time

[kissme6874]

OMG the kid...

[kamikaziboi]

DANG THEY WERE KILLING THAT BEAT!!!!!!.......hahaaha...

[princeaferd]

this is one of my fav shows from moo, so cool for bboying showing that u can have bboying even without sound amazing stuff.

[cvac0]

god....they deserve to go to the international competition at least once.....but its just too bad they have to compete against crews like rivers, drifterz, last for one, gambler, extreme, theres just tooo many dam good korean crews....but they r super unique and need to make it international....

[chichakrugebregt]

why complain anyway ?

they did this with a good hard

'' you just experienced being deaf for 6 minutes ''

[MissBreena95]

deafness? awesome! :O

[JazzAndKoffee]

To all those who complain about absence of music,

Just fix your volume

Doesn't work?

Then wait for the fucking end !

[JremnantK]

MUCH RESPECT TO MORNING OF OWL

they definitely DO bring something new and fresh to the table and this performance was one of the most inspiring and amazing shows. As mentioned below, music is to some degree considered one of the basics in bboying since they dance to the music but in this case, they totally thought of the performance out side of box and also gave a different view of what bboying is like to a deaf person. just awesome

[ZuluWun]

Incredible. To be able to coordinate with no beat.... wow. At some points it looks like they're just reading each others minds, no cues, nothing that could be considered any kind of signal.... and they nail it. Madddness haha

[krnboinoon]

any true dancer would understand the degree of difficulty of this routine.

morning of owl creativity dosnt stop to amaze me

[gearsofpants]

what...the...fuck

is this..shit

[RSGknives]

bboying by yourself with no music = no skill

bboyin with a crew with no music to be on count to = hard as hell

[hawkie88]

quote of the year!

[Teitoz]

i think in bboying, the music in something basic, : / something that always must be .,

[shinnie04]

@Teitoz: Not really in this context. Sure, music is probably one of the most important components to dancing but you can't forget that dancing is an art form and like any art form you're allowed to twist the rules, go against the standards and the norms to achieve something of self expression or other goals.

The lack of music for the purpose of the performance made this beautiful and considering the difficulty of having no music to synchronize with is quite amazing.

[erhsbboy]

i agree

[xknife17]

it would be more dope if they put some music on it.... peace... they're so cool even without music... that kid was so sick man! haha

[beinghappyhs]

the whole point of the performance was deafness.

[daviduhoh]

@beinghappyhs

not saying it was bad or anything but what was the purpose of that?

[princeaferd]

this is one of my favorite shows of all time for bboying, incredible

[BrooklynCapoeirista]

That Was Hot

[NyCxMuSiC]

this must be mad hard to perform with no music .__.'

go morning of owl !

[slybboysk8]

That was so so beautiful, when they finished i started to cry. Greatest EVER!!!!

[eggrolla]

haha the crowd sounds so funny every lik 5 seconds

[shevegen]

Although I admit that the show was very good (and I love MoO), I think without music something *essential* is missing. The beat, the pronouncation, accent... it is like *thinking* in musical notations.

True, it is something different - but I hope this wont become the default for everyone. Because frankly, without music, it is not as good...

[IamHopers]

i still couldn't understand the red guy.....

[breakingbboy]

OMG, so cool, this is a whole new type of show

[quysauce]

completely insane. I've always thought Morning Owl was one of the most creative crews. although judging this they could have only won best performance/creativity, the theme/music part was probably marked as 0. great performance none the less.

[agleoras1991]

so freaking good

amazing stuf that requires amazing practise and teamwork

[limchongtee2]

sick

[Phantomo]

I always tell my students, Dancers play the music, don't let the music play you. This video have absolutely proved my point, Watching their movements is like playing music the best music from my heart, you FEEL the music, you create your own rhythm/ beats from every step they make. Besides, check out the cheering, screaming, clapping... it's like music... recorded and played through their impressive movements. NICE!

[Phantomo]

amazing!

[daortca]

I thought the audio wasnt working but men why did they did this?????????????

[skeletokyo]

its called creativity it grows on you when you start perceiving bboying for what trully is, and that is ART in its purest form, freedom of selfexpression my friend [:

[kamiyamaa]

.....amazing.

[bink3d]

wow this must've been so incredibly hard to pull off... and yet they did O_O

[bernieava]

could someone tell me if they are wearing in ears so they can stay together or are they solely vibing off of one another.

[brian1kim]

음악 고르기귀차나서 저런거아닌가 -_-?

[poweroflight]

omg so amazing

[driedbanana]

love this crew so og

[projectseoul90]

imagine how hard that is....no music or beat. crews use music as cues to certain variations to there routines but morning of owl executed there routine perfectly without any music.... very impressive

[UghhItsTony]

HOLY SHIAT! these type of performances and techniques are what set korean dancers apart from others. this was soooo... just amazing dawg

[Pwnatsf]

Dang they are good. Man. Only MEN can dance without music. cuz if theres no music its kinda more pressure

[Qurash]

normally the BOTY judging criteria contain the factor "theme/music"...

i wonder if the judges give a 10, a zero, or whatever

[PowerPrem]

i would of liked it more if it had music

[BboyRandii]

this is definitely the most difficult showcase i have ever seen

[1andOnlyEggnog]

THEYRE BBOYING ACOUSTICLY :DD

[gigettu]

i think there's no dancing style better than b-boying. you do what your mind can imagine. proud to be hiphop lifeman.

[skeletokyo]

true :)))

[JamZumel]

man this must've been a hard performance to do haha hard to remember when your supposed to do what without the music

[Johnny1455]

OMG whos the guy in the white hair?? that old guy?? is he Who i think it is Please reply to this. is he Kim ming sung?? omg i thought he retired hes too old hes like 45 or sumthin he was the first korea with high 90s

[leoris87]

he is Bboy Issue and he ain't 45.

[Johnny1455]

Can someone tell me wtf is going on lol??? everyone is clapping and no music? wait OOOHHH now i know what u guys mean Music is what makes people know what moves they are sapose to do if they dont hear the beats they dont know when they do they're part or what to do if they got lost

[leoris87]

u make no sense man. this performance shows people how precious it is to have hearing abilities. people these days take lots of things for granted including their health. they wanted us to appreciate the things that some people don't get to have. read the poster that comes down from the ceiling at the end of the performance

[shevegen]

well bboy dance without music is boring, but this is very creative and refers to hearing impaired people

[mastermrt]

"they dont know when they do they're part or what to do if they got lost"

Yet still, they managed to stay in sync the whole time.

[b0r3d0n1ine]

EXCELLENT!!!

[deer88]

somebody can tell me who's that crazy bboy at 1:25?? i love his style!

[mastermrt]

That's bboy Issue.

He's a freaking NUTTER!

[sae05z]

last part of the performance was so gd.

RESPECT!

[drpopper8]

WOW!!! that was just........WOW!! LOL

[Qurash]

synchronizing choreo without music

omg didnt something like that is possible

[Qurash]

bboy issue is underrated

[khimdo]

what is the name of he song?

xD

[Trapinnewyork44]

UOOOOOHHH BY: Crowd LOLOL

[skeletokyo]

hahahaha xD

[b0r3d0n1ine]

LOL!!

[hth10092000]

You just have experienced

deafness for 6 mins

[bboydarkflex]

very nice i dig well done

[armystag]

This was HOTT FIYAH! MOrning of Owl is dope and this just makes em even better. dope styles and unique. great combo.

[raybaboon]

This brought tears to my eyes. A very good message and possibly one of the best performances every. p.s i had so many goose bumps that my niples were 5x erect.

[powerofj88]

That was...interesting

[noxic13]

wow very inspiring routine =)

its kinda of a cross between bboying and contemporary and i noticed one of the dancers didnt have any shoes on xD mad props to him!

[sae05z]

omfg...!!! truly unique crew!!!! RESPECTFUL!

at the beginning, i was like, wtf? where iz music? omg itz so gaaaay.

but at the end, i was like, ohhhh shiiiitttt

fuckin awesome!!!!

omg they should win dis competition.

anyway i like that kid. >=)

[eggrolla]

very inspiring...especially at da end...much respect

[wbonsai]

all i can say is

UOOOHHH

[LProcka]

i bet everyone was like "wtf is there technical errors?...this must be a hell of a coordinated crew" but then in the end, it all unravels

truly a unique crew

[take118551]

Awe-inspired.

[ostinase]

Personally, this is one of the best performance in entire bboying history. Here are my points.

1. They said at an interview that they intended to give you a message about hearing-impared friends around us. After mere 6 minutes' experience, now we can understand "a little" about the hardships and dryness in their lives, right? What a freakingly beautiful message.

2. The leader of this crew used to criticize some bboys who don't give a shit on music and just try to show off circus-like skills.

[ostinase]

And now, with this performance, we felt all the more keenly how precious music is. Morning of Owl reminded us a basic thing that bboying is all about ENJOYING MUSIC.

3. Guess how fucking hard to be in SYNC without music for 6 mins. It's even unimaginable. But they're perfectly in sync and focused. They must have practiced like crazy.

4. Individually, they'r all mad skilled with power,style,and some their own fresh moves. And the lil kid!! Though he crashed once lol, still was just amazing.

[ever4one]

Simply incredibly awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

[heart415]

this is impressive show..

[shakesuka]

damn that's incredible

[aremmendez]

nice theme...

got sense!

i feel like im deaf and ive nothing to hear...

[freshfresku101]

dude, f all you haters this performance is a fuckin masterpiece. it made all who watched it wonder and the answer came out in the end.

I give it a 10 outta 10

[BBOYHAPPYFACE]

simply amazing,

sick,

any have the lil bboys name?

[NavEah]

i can't believe morning of owl didn't win best in show with this =|...just amazing

[battosai191]

most of you are missing the perfection of this performance!

not only are the creative and express themselves well theyre fuking in snyc wit no beats at all

yall kno how fuking hard that is!!

try dancing together like dat wit no music or mirrors, its all fuking timed in their heads and they practiced so much to do it so perfectly

i love this performance, fuking sik!!

[raimundo19906]

Totally agree, the idea is so fresh and everything was simply amazing!

[bboyedep]

sin musika no mola

[riseheaven]

just watch the end stop hating i think its a good show :\

[mbyun0930]

some ppl who are btching about the 'no music' thing are just completely missing the point of their perf. yeah, it's no question that bboying is with music. who doesn't know that? but it's also a form of expression..morning of owl wanted to send a message to the audience, and i think they did a pretty sweet job of doing just that. so ppl, just shut the hell up and enjoy

[rudysdark]

they're dancing to...OHHHHHHHHHHHH OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

[kwang92]

skills n techniques r great n its creative n all but i don't see how you can call this a dance when theres no music.

bboys today r missing the whole idea of wat real bboying is.

[shevegen]

its very creative

and a very clean show

but i agree with you, i miss the music :)

its why i liked their 2006 performance more, cuz of the music :D

[kwang92]

well in 2006 they used some rock music to dance to. i mean i thought that was the shittiest song choice.

able crew, morning of owl, and maximum crew. these guys hav no idea wat real bboying is.

rivers crew ftw

[KoffeeNut]

bboy is bboy...and they are all bboys. it's not rocket science, it's the obvious. Rivers maybe more successful than all three of them but the idea that they aren't "real bboys" is silly.

[kwang92]

im not saying rivers rules them all out but rivers keeps the original bboying that was done back when it all started.

n think about it, bboying is all about expression through the music. n here theres no music...

[KillerDeadXero]

bboy jackie chan win!

[lilmandoyle]

You do make a valid point about dancing through music, but is rock music music? Don't be so judgmental as to what "real" bboying is. True, Rivers crew is more old-school than the rest, but dances evolve. If bboying was kept at its original roots then there'd be alot less power today.

[raimundo19906]

well bboying is a form of expression like all dance and well these guys were expressing if you know what i mean (well this is what i think and if im wrong then correct me if you like)

[greendreamers]

morning of Owl really is creative, aren't they? ahah

[BboyDareDevil]

omfg i was suprised at the beggining. the kid wit hthe white shirt. his sick! and the guy in the red is good.

[rhfemfjwu1]

wow very thoughtful...

[ohemgeeejackiee]

"AAAHHHH!!!"

"WOOOOOAHHHHH"

"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAHHHHH" [clap][clap]

[GolceaVlad]

Song number five !!!!

[kang4456]

i think their disk missing or something else..... so pity..... if not i think can be winner ard.... just wow

[ohemgeeejackiee]

The "disk missing" was intentional. If you watched to the end, you'll understand.

[ameriknu84]

divine

[Bboymizu]

that was insane!!!! at first i thought "where's the music?" but then in the end i was like "man!!! that takes true skill!"

[aznperson94]

true, its harder to stay together and on beat without music

[sureshothwarang]

fuck! i just luv their originiality damn awesome!

_tekkenphil.tripod.com_

[qiuyang123]

ooooooooooooooooooh

whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

wahoooooooooooooooooooo

[iiBreakDance]

its harder to perform without music think of it.

You're trying to work as a team but theres no beat to follow, lol

That kid is very talented.

[aNXie1y]
