I came across a few moments of the Animusic series on PBS last night, and was immediately entranced. I scrambled feverishly for the remote and a blank VHS tape…then I remembered youtube.
Recipe for instant smile: a MST3K-esque set, robots (my favorite is the red one on the right, especially when it puts its arms up and just flows with the music), and synth pop that stirs my 80’s nostalgia.
This series seems to be full of creepily anthropomorphic creations playing music…on themselves.

Okay, that either took a really long time to animate or program. Or a lot of drugs. AWESOME!
“…and synth pop that stirs my 80’s nostalgia.”
I’ve been on an 80’s nostalgia kick lately…odd…I know.
Oh, I can help you with that. Music, videos, even commercials and toys!
The first time I tried viewing these videos, the sound cut out on me so i couldn’t hear the lovely synthpop that you said accompanied it. Well I fixed my laptop’s sound but now the videos have been removed from YouTube. Boo, that sux!
