A fascinating home studio production comes from Daniel Brunner alias “The.madpix.project”. I could listen to the instrumental version of his club sound track “When the sun goes down” in an endless loop. Excellent work!
Chartleader
Felix Jaehn is a phenomenon: With his age of 23 he has written several world hits in the meantime. Looking back at his career, the “Cheerleader” remix was his breakthrough. He took the original reggae song of Omar Samuel Pasley (OMI),…
… added a trumpet and transformed it into a nice deep house song which made it a #1 hit worldwide in 27 different charts. His remix is simple and the trumpet is a great enhancement of the song. Fantastic job!
Glowing
Not only the ice perfomance of the Coldplay song “Everglow” is amazing. The song is so melodic, it sounds beautiful in a small room with a piano…
… and in a big stadium like in Munich, where the piano part is actually played by the Coldplay fan Ferdinand Schwartz, who was picked out of the audience (amazing job by Ferdinand!)…
… and it sounds beautiful with a guitar as well, played by James Bartholomew.
Rocket science
Elon Musk has revolutionized mobility on the street. Nobody is questioning anymore that electric cars are the future on the roads. He will also revolutionize the long distance travel: As a residue of his SpaceX program, he is planning to replace commercial long distance aircraft flights with rocket flights.
It is impressive to see how precise his rocket prototypes are performing a propulsive landing.
Magic sea
On Instagram someone made a video with a magic background music, which caught my attention. Never heard of Porter Robinson before but his song “Sea of Voices” creates a beautiful musical atmosphere. Enjoy!
Oh Yeah out now!
The Youtube video of my latest song “Oh Yeah” is now live! This is my first cooperation with Anna Davis for the title image, which was also used as rendering background for the video.
Listen also to my other songs on Spotify.
42 x 100
According to the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the number 42 is the answer to life, the universe and everything. Bugatti qualifies for this number in several aspects: After 10 years of development, their latest supercar for series production “Chiron” multiplies this number 100 times: It reaches a top speed of 420 km/h on the road, frightening reality! The good part is that only 500 pieces of this car will be produced at the price of 2.4 million Euros each, so it is unlikely to be surprised by such a car on the highway. In a Bugatti advertisement video, including some drone shots, it was accelerated to 400 km/h and the decelerated to zero within 42 seconds.
To slow down the 1.500 horsepower engine from this insane speed, 420 mm carbon ceramic brake disks and a rear air brake spoiler are used. Much more than these insane specs, it’s so impressive to see that it was possible to combine all disciplines of knowledge to create such a masterpiece of engineering. Now that the era of electric cars has begun, it will probably be the last of its kind with a combustion engine.
Filming this car at top speed is difficult because no drone or other car can catch up with its speed but nevertheless already the shots from a fixed location are impressive, like this one filmed in Dubai with great close-up and sunset shots.
Berlin glowing on ice
Tanja Kolbe makes ice glow: She is a 27 year old ice dancer from Berlin and creates a magic atmosphere with her coreography in the video for the Coldplay song “Everglow”. The video was shot in the “Eisstadion am Pferdeturm” in Hannover with excellent special effects by the London-based post production studio CherryCherryVFX.
The performance was actually filmed with her skating partner Stefano Caruso but for the Coldplay video he was removed in post production by the VFX team to make her part of the performance look even more magic, as if she could fly over the ice surface. Tanja and Stefano last won the 19th place at the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia. In 2015 she got a son and is now showing herself back in everglowing magic on ice in the Coldplay video.
Atmospheric moment
Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight from Seattle are bringing magic to earth. Under the band name Odesza they are releasing excellent electronic music and videos. This month they released their new album “A moment apart”, with a stunning teaser.
The song “A Moment Apart” is simply magic.
The band was formed in 2012 and has released three albums so far. For their current album tour they have designed a stunning teaser.
A masterpiece of video animation is their video for “Line Of Sight”, which has beautiful lighting and reminds of the movie Terminator.
Beautiful Youth
In a Vlog video of the Youtuber Michael Linde, he used beautiful melancholic background music which immediately caught my attention.
The song is called “Youth” from the English band “Daughter” with the 27 years old singer Elena Torna. Beautiful music and beautiful video with a great lighting and atmosphere!
