Thanks again for taking the time to capture these. So good to be able to see them. I'm definitely going to try and hunt down the discs. I have an Ambilight television and Hue lights in the same room. When you put on Ambilight + Hue sync these videos come to life! :thumbup:

I've been wanting to set something like that up for ages, but I just have too many windows in my livingroom.

It works well for the non-3D material. The Virtual Drug discs work best in a dark room, per the sleeve instructions.

Ambilight is great. Ambilight+Hue can be even better im certain situations. If you calibrate it right it has a follow feature. Example, watching Chernobyl, where the team go to the reactor it's pitch black. One of the team uses a flashlight to find a way through the water. The lights follow the torch beam around your room. It's really quite effective in the dark!

Remind me to set all of this before I do shrooms again, it'll be a blast! I already have lights in the bedroom that sync to my music, which comes from 4 different smart speakers, I just can't work it out with my TV for visual stuff.

I gotta upgrade at some point honestly :lol:

Why not watch these titles with something like the 1970s light organs?

That looks deadly. Some fun VJ equipment! I stumbled upon some fantastic music yesterday evening that would go great with that kit. Check out this Austrian guy, Demuja. He has a bandcamp page but I found him on Tidal in my recommendations.

Try these for size with a visualiser:

Space Seduction:

Heartbroken (some great drum programming here):



https://tidal.com/browse/track/170078740


Rave (it's exactly what you think it is):



https://tidal.com/browse/track/170078742


Forget About Me (awesome Amen break stuffs):



https://tidal.com/browse/track/170078743

In the middle of studying and I suddenly remembered about a great CD single I bought way back in 1994. I had a look on Tidal to see if it was available and indeed it is. In fact the whole album is there.

What album/song is that then?

Sven Vath - Ballet-Fusion.

I had never seen the video for the song before. I didn't even know if one existed for it. Yet here it is, in a 3min long radio edit form (probably for MTV or similar). I think it fits in with this discussion!



To be honest though the radio edit is an injustice. You want the full fat, full beans 9 minute 12 second long version which you can find on Tidal, and probably other places.

https://tidal.com/browse/track/63331367

I've never heard the album before (it's advertised on the inside of the CD single, though I knew Ballet-Fusion was part of a trilogy of tracks. Those tracks form the last part of the album and comprise of:

Ballet-Romance
Ballet-Fusion
and
Ballet-Dancer

This is really solid, gorgeous techno. Not a load of old trance cobblers or some utter helmet twiddling knobs on a Kaossilator and patching random sockets on a Moog for three quarters of an hour.

Also, it reminded me a little of a Bran Lanen track showcasing some seriously whopper Detroit techno skills on an MC-303. I had an MC-303 many years ago but could never get anywhere close to what this lad can do. The MC-303 is super difficult to get to grips with. I gave up. :oops:

This showcase reminds me a bit of early Dave Angel, Jeff Mills, R&S stuff. All the big Detroit masters too. Derrik May, Juan Atkins/Model 500 and so on. You can get a bunch of Axis and Jeff Mills works on DVD (The Exhibitionist et al). I think I have them all somewhere, need to dig them out again!



Oh and while I'm on a nostalgia trip, you can have this. The 'Liturgic Mix' of With Wit by Morose. :thumbup:

This video is a recording from the same 12" I had on Kingsize way back in 1996. Written by Massimo Braghieri, I think this 12" was the only thing he put out, at least under the Morose moniker? Regardless, it's a smashing track that really opens up around the 2 min 50 mark. It should suit a lot of you folks thinking of setting up visualisers or VJ'ing! Think I have the 12" somewhere, I couldn't bare to part with it.



EDIT: Didn't notice he has a Bandcamp page with the tracks for sale. Highest resolution I've ever heard the tracks of the 12" in and only £1! Support the lad. :thumbup:

Yet another stumble upon I feel should be added to your thread!

I happened to find a great channel on Alphabet's video streaming service called Meditation HD. Here's a superb 3 HOUR film to get you off and running. The music is a bit 'Goa Sprauncefest' for my liking, but the visuals are tremendous. :D
