Animusic draws you into its reality like no place you have ever been. You encounter new dimensions of sight and sound as you experience seven unique visual concerts. From the robotic laser-precision of Future Retro and rapid-fire ball bearings of Pipe Dream to the serene acoustic beauty of Aqua Harp, each animation is an intricate melding of music and visuals.

Years ago, I happened across an experimental piece of musical video animation titled "More Bells and Whistles" and was quite taken with its novelty. I searched to no avail for an original "Bells and Whistles".Recently, while having my son check out various films from the University of Hawaii Library, I transposed 2 digits on one of my requests and what I got was "Animusic".Oh, Happy Day!There is no original "Bells and Whistles", but what IS on the DVD more than satisfied my original desire for more of the same.Yet my appetite is whetted and I look forward to "Animusic 2". So does my son, an avid percussionist.

If you have a mind that envisions light with sound, you will love this DVD! It's not only computer animation, but it is computer animation to the exact sound that's being played! Amazing work, I look forward to their next release! This is more than a mere gathering of clever animations. The works featured in Animusic are the first step toward an entire new entertainment field. The technological innovations accomplished with this are very impressive. What they've done here takes our Mind's Eye 'video album' concept a big step farther, combining music and animation in such an integrated and dynamic manner.I LOVE the imagination that was put into creating the various instruments – the rendering is GREAT . . . and I TOTALLY enjoy the music.

Wow! Not only do I agree with the above comments, but I am buying several Animusics for friends and family to enjoy because I want to share this mesmerizing technological treasure. The music alone is unique and pleasantly addictive, even after several viewings. Children and adults alike are highly fascinated by all the different instruments and activities going on at once in perfect harmony and flawless timing. It is a true and delightful inspiration that I recommend to anybody for a gleeful uplifting of spirits. Watching Animusic with first-timers is an ultimate satisfaction when their mouths fly open just like mine did. It keeps them very busy wondering what is going to happen next. Thanks, Animusic Team, for such a brilliant masterpiece added to my collection.

I'm normally a huge movie fan yet was drawn to this music video, like many others, by seeing PipeDreams on PBS years ago. I didn't know a formal video had been produced or had been available. I was walking through a computer wholesale store and notice it playing on the monitors. I immediately stopped what I was doing and stood watching it. After the segment played it displayed the website of its production. I checked out the website and found out there were more segments and checked out the clips. I finally decided to loosen up my grip on the wallet and purchase the DVD. I am so glad I did. It is an excellent addition to any collection. My son also finds it interesting and it'll calm and entrance him. One of the best short time babysitters for a preschooler I could ever think of. I also use it as a background piece when I have company over or my wife has little group sales parties. I'm now anxiously awaiting the release of Animusic 2 which should be available for sale later this month.
