When I win the euro millions I will start a radio station just to have these words ushered. Preferably after a phone in about euthanisation of old people.
on this movie's imdb trivia page it says that The first 30 minutes of the film has a background noise with a frequency of 28Hz (low frequency, almost inaudible), similar to the noise produced by an earthquake. In humans, it causes nausea, sickness and vertigo. It was the main cause of people walking out of the theaters during the first part of the film in places like Cannes and San Sebastian. In fact, it was added with the purpose of getting this reaction. wow
PotterishHead I thought my nausea, sickness and vertigo came from watching a man get his head pounded into nothing by a fire extinguisher, but no! Apparently it's because of a 28Hz subsonic frequency that my mind couldn't comprehend but my stomach certainly could.
+PotterishHead I f'ing love that fact! With an ending that seems to ask if would you lose your humanity under the same circumstances, I wonder if the film contains any frequencies that can trigger aggression in some people? Apparently Marilyn Manson made his dog freak out when hitting certain notes working on the Resident Evil soundtrack.
Thomas Bangalter’s artistic spectrum ranges from Daft Punk’s “One more time” and Stardust’s “Music sounds better with you”, to a extremely uneasy “Rectum”. Man is a fucking legend.
Just watched this movie, and honestly the soundtrack and cinematography were way more disturbing to me than the onscreen violence. They actually made me feel slightly sick to my stomach and extremely anxious and uncomfortable.
Thats what uts supposed to do because I felt the same. Ive been sexyally assaulted, it brought utter panic and nausea. But I made it through although it took a few stops to go through it. But uts the wave frequency or whatever that it puts out to your brain to make you feel panicked or whatever.
@@native_beauty1340 I'm very sorry to hear what happened to you, but I'm glad you made it through! You're right, the sound design/cinematography was excellent for this movie precisely because it made me so uneasy. I've never been sexually assaulted, but if the panic and nausea is like what this movie's design conveyed, then they nailed it.
the camera madness is supposed to show the rage of the boyfriend who wants revenge for his raped girlfriend. at the beginning (end) of the movie the camera is getting more calm.
@@TimeandMonotony it made.me.almost get sick, the feeling of the helplessness and fear because you know what comes next They completely nailed the movie ad sound frequency
This scene was definitely one of the most intense scenes i have witnessed watching any film. The music contributes to the effect on the viewer grately, it perfectly resembles the sensation one may feel during an intense anxiety/panic attack. Its simply perfect.
The fire extinguisher scene is so brutally irreversible because throughout the act there is almost no changes of camera angle or cuts. That's one way Hollywood softens lethal violence. By cutting to different camera angles every few seconds or to someone's horrified face, they can 'distribute' the horrific experience among a crowd. But here for 20min prior the camera barely settled on anything... Then when it did..? Please no! Stop! Make it stop!! Gaspar Noe, in creating that scene, is unashamedly inflicting upon us - the full weight of cinema! He's saying "Look... Look! NO! LOOK..!! See what we can do to you if we want..?" Masterful.
As a professional screenwriter, I have to say: kudos to you! You've written a very good analysis of the power of long takes vs distributing the power of a scene with editing and coverage shots: not many people understand this! It's the brutal power of the single point of view, the weight of real time passing by, and above all it's the horrific discovery within ourselves that we CANNOT look away. We can decide not to look at the screen, we can even skip this scene. However... we do not. And Gaspar Noé knows we don't look away, and he punishes us for this: for our desperate, morbid, masochistic need to watch. True, magnificent art :)
It's very similar to the scene in the underpass actually. One of the few times the camera does not spin around. And that for almost 10 minutes straight It was well crafted indeed
What?? You guys think these songs are scary? If you want to hear something really disturbing you need to listen to this! --> ua-cam.com/video/dQw4w9WgXcQ/v-deo.html
This music is horrifying. I’ve seen Irreversible twice, and on first viewing, you don’t appreciate the impact this track has on the build-up and climax of that opening scene in the club. When you go back again, the gradual rise of that monotonous drone is as close to impending doom as they’ll ever capture in cinema. Shoutout to Thomas Bangalter, that scene wouldn’t be the same without it.
100%, I find it as unsettling as the first time I heard it, irreversible is a hard movie to watch but must be appreciated, Vincent cassel is incredible, I can hear every strike just by hearing the music again... où est le ténia👌
I remember seeing somewhere that this soundtrack induced nausea and headaches because of its unnatural rhythm. Another sound that may cause the same disturbing effect is "Hell Sirens" from Everywhere at the End of Time.
@@Rammichi1 will have to check it out! honestly, this music blows me away. kind of like the music in 'Joker' when he kills Murray. it's so unsettling. funny enough, i did a recreation of that a few months back. check it out ! ua-cam.com/video/pv4wGX0N88U/v-deo.html&lc=UgyCwZRRpQuLKcCOcTh4AaABAg
The way the camera moves around in the film, plus this sound track is great work. meanwhile youre trying to understand the movie everything is so intense and the music just makes you feel like youre running in a nightmare. Ugh such a love and hate feeling.
This truly feels like something you would hear in a nightmare. Just that paranoia of going back home late at night, feeling like you’re about to be jumped at any corner at any second.
sterling mathis The rectum scene cos the score, but both of the infamous scenes alone are among the most realistic and therefore disturbing any other director would be afraid of to shoot. The Rectum club just shakes you up from the beginning, hardly any movies can shake you up like this one
Watching that skull get caved in piece by piece until its nothing but a twitching lower jaw as he overkills his scattered brains with that extinguisher is unreal to say the least!
to those who feel sick and uncomfortable listening to this, know that Gaspar Noe wanted the sex-club/hydrant scene to have a really dark feel, so they added a 19-hertz frequency (causes dread and fear) to the music. i think it's an excellent idea because you have no idea why you feel so weird when watching/listening. max-creativity in my opinion
Hard to believe the same guy who did Music Sounds Better With You also provided a far-too-fitting soundtrack for one of the most emotionally abusive films ever made.
I remember the first time I saw this movie, this was the only movie ost that legitimately made me uncomfortable, something about the unsettling waves of sound or the muffled bass gives me chills
@@brandonbreyer3118 it's a track. It's been decontextualised because it works well in the context of a short spooky clip. I don't know if Noe would be upset. He says he doesn't care about the viewer's reaction to his film, so you'd think he wouldn't care about Tiktok using it. On the other hand, his edgelord provocator act is very transparent, indicating that he really desperately does care what you think about it, and so perhaps he does care. Either way, who cares, you're gay for getting angry over it
What is the name of the sound ? Majority of TikTok Users change the name to avoid other users to find it. I know this song due to being a fan of daft punk's work. Only saw the film once; never want to watch it again .
Did you know: Bangalter has used infrasound in Irreversible's score and sound design. We are unable to hear infrasound but our brain registers it anyway, inducing anxiety and a sense of paranoia.
I would assume that the compression algorithm of youtube gets rid of it and that most headphones and smartphone/pc speakers are unable to push a lot of infrasound. All Im tryna say. We probably dont here it when we listen to it here. Cinema is something different.
yep. There are other types of infrasound you can hear. Any kind of general rumbaing or whirring. You can hear it in this. Like a 'whom whom whom whom whom" sound that goes in time with drums.
This movie actually has a low frequency playing that you can’t actually hear called infrasound. The sound generated causes a sense of anxiety and nausea
@@willow-m6n It cant. However, the main goal of this film was to be played in cinema, with real deal powerful and HD speakers that are capable of wider frequency ranges.
I've got a really good sound system for my TV, and from the very beginning of the movie, I could feel that low frequency sound! I had it cranked up and things in the room were rattling! I figured thar if I'm only going to watch this movie once, I'm going to watch it right!
Watched this movie many time on different occasions. One time I was really high and watched in on my laptop with headphones phone. When this music kicked in and they showed Le Tenia standing getting away with the rape I lost my shit and started crying
@@mateomatthew5071 I mean it’s a very disturbing and depressing film but it’s really well made. Personally you wouldn’t catch me watching this shit more than once tho lol I’m good
@@elvishendrix676 The movie for some people is barely watchable this scene for me is the least violent of them all i mean there's a fckgn rape scene that goes on for like 10 minutes
I still _cannot_ wrap my head around the fact that one of the Daft Punk robot guys made this soundtrack. How you would go from “One More Time” to this is beyond me, but I guess that what it means to be a talented musician....
I think what messed me up about the club scene wasn’t the fire extinguisher kill but the fact the club goers didn’t stop the violence before the fire extinguisher kill and during. They cheered and just watched in awe. That’s disturbing even if it was a BDSM club that is too extreme
What's even more messed up: it was the wrong guy. The one who "Did the dirty deed" so to speak is lurking inconspicuously amongst the crowd, smiling during the beatdown. Knowing that he's going to get away with his crime.
It's impressive how the beat fades in and out giving you the feeling of being at the wrong place to do the wrong things. It does that without actually seeing the footage of the movie. Thats how you know it's good.
Yeah this song really sets the tone of that place. Holy shit. Imagine being on drugs in a place like that and this song comes on. How to descend into madness 101. Literally a bad trip from hell.
yeah, ive been on some raves doing drugs and it can really mess up your mind if youre not in a good mood or the music is fucked up...but this? holy shit
I'd say that truly indicates that they did everything right. It shall make you feel uncomfortable like the whole premise of the movie. Like someone mentioned it in the comments before: the idea that they really added up a 28hz background noise (almost inaudible) for the first 30min. of the movie (can cause sickness and vertigo) is really the cherry on the top. Excellent!
Hay pocas peliculas que no me atreveria a ver en un cine ni aunque me invitaran por lo fuerte que son sus escenas. Irreversible sin duda es una de ellas...
“By far the worst is the Hamburger Lady…” You can tell the composer was massively inspired by Throbbing Gristle! I thought that they had just genuinely sampled Hamburger Lady at first. Rest In Peace, Genesis
holy crap you're right. this is literally a throbbing gristle homage. I'm gonna have to disagree this is worse than HL. HL makes this sound like a bunch bleep-blorp noises playing in a laundromat
I was friend’s with a girl in high school who pressured me into watching anything: human centipede, cannibal holocaust, I spit on your gave, and some things I cant admit I could sit through. But omg, I chose to watch this as a sober adult and no film has ever ever bothered me close to this. Every part of my body was as messed up as this song made my ears
you know.....the feeling of watching the rectum scene for the first time, that's a feeling of chok you will never experience in a movie ever again, I envy people who have yet to watch Irreversible
My friend saw it at Cannes Film Festival when it first came out and he saw it and he walked out when the that scene in the tunnel and he said he would never watch that movie ever
3:48 typical hardcore techno music at gay leather parties... Gaspar Noe knows the underground scene very well. This song was a perfect match for the 'Rectum" scene.. just love it. Greetings from Mexico City
It as well as Martyrs really fucked with me for a couple days after watching them, and I'm very desensitized to brutal as all hell movies. But Irreversible and Martyrs really struck me hard.
***** The rape scene is what did it for me in this movie. But I've never seen the movie you mentioned, might have to check it out though. I love any kind of movie that pushes boundaries and can make me feel uncomfortable. As long as it's still entertaining to watch. Doesn't have to be a fucking cinematic masterpiece or anything, just some good ol' fashioned grotesque ass entertainment, lol.
+Cheese Block Same here. Serbian Film was so over the top crazy that I couldn't take it seriously enough to actually have much impact on me. Sure it has some shocking moments, but those moments are very over the top. While situations like the rape scene in Irreversible is something portrayed in a much more realistic manner.
That’s the thing about Thomas, Guy Man(the gold helmet) also had his own fair share of song. They had a cheer tune type. I recommend you listen to Guy Man’s Crydamoure, and Thomas’ Roule,
You go to sleep and wake up to this song playing, then you look and see a menacing SpongeBob balloon at the end of your hallway, staring at you and grinning.
I can’t see it being used in Silent Hill. Unless they get a horrifying club in the game then I don’t see it being used. I could see it be used for a game tho for sure
There’s a reason for that, sub-audible signals in the movie. It became incredibly popular after it began being used in the 70’s. ua-cam.com/video/ZuokWUhMGQc/v-deo.html
I saw this movie one time 10 years ago. (Because who would watch it more than once right?) But today I saw some viral thing on tik tok with this music and my stomach dropped. The video was light hearted but I felt automatic dread. And I remembered exactly where I had heard it.. I came here to confirm. It. Tik tok sucks for this one

@@mateomatthew5071 I mean it’s a very disturbing and depressing film but it’s really well made. Personally you wouldn’t catch me watching this shit more than once tho lol I’m good
This is genuinely terrifying. I never thought I’d get scared of a piece of music.
if this is terryfing, never watch the scene that is assosiated with it
holy god damn sh*t
@@Masauce_ I’ve never seen the movie, but I’ve actually seen the scene, out of curiosity and yeah, that was pretty fucked up haha
@@elvishendrix676 The movie for some people is barely watchable
this scene for me is the least violent of them all
i mean there's a fckgn rape scene that goes on for like 10 minutes
I didn't know I would be scared of a song either until now
@@_oscavva yeah me neither
You could say this track is a real... *banger*
lmao
This movie was hard to watch, but it was just brilliant
For a comedy, it took some honestly unexpected turns...
This is an example of what the word irreversible sounds like.
Ooooo I like the way you think 😟😟
This song makes me stressed and nauseous. Good job.
I still _cannot_ wrap my head around the fact that one of the Daft Punk robot guys made this soundtrack. How you would go from “One More Time” to this is beyond me, but I guess that what it means to be a talented musician....
YEAH LIKE WTF HOW
french pride 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈😤✊
I think what messed me up about the club scene wasn’t the fire extinguisher kill but the fact the club goers didn’t stop the violence before the fire extinguisher kill and during. They cheered and just watched in awe. That’s disturbing even if it was a BDSM club that is too extreme
What's even more messed up: it was the wrong guy. The one who "Did the dirty deed" so to speak is lurking inconspicuously amongst the crowd, smiling during the beatdown. Knowing that he's going to get away with his crime.
I’m not getting involved if I see that being done to a dude
Yeah, I love horror, but that scene was INSANE! Super disturbing!
It's impressive how the beat fades in and out giving you the feeling of being at the wrong place to do the wrong things. It does that without actually seeing the footage of the movie. Thats how you know it's good.
such disturbing "music", makes me sick to the stomach, imagine this in a underground drugged up place like the rectum, id go insane
Yeah this song really sets the tone of that place. Holy shit. Imagine being on drugs in a place like that and this song comes on. How to descend into madness 101. Literally a bad trip from hell.
yeah, ive been on some raves doing drugs and it can really mess up your mind if youre not in a good mood or the music is fucked up...but this? holy shit
I'd say that truly indicates that they did everything right.
It shall make you feel uncomfortable like the whole premise of the movie.
Like someone mentioned it in the comments before:
the idea that they really added up a 28hz background noise (almost inaudible) for the first 30min. of the movie (can cause sickness and vertigo) is really the cherry on the top.
Excellent!
@@RekzaFS i mean im listening to this while stoned but i think on other shit it would be mental
Me either.
Hay pocas peliculas que no me atreveria a ver en un cine ni aunque me invitaran por lo fuerte que son sus escenas. Irreversible sin duda es una de ellas...
Fire extinguisher...
@@pipule830Nah
Tunnel scene man...
I've tried making a track similar to this.
Nope...it's unrelenting. Horrid in sound...it sounds like a rave in Hell.
Did you upload it?
On Soundcloud, not here. I've not gotten anywhere NEAR how this sounds.

Which song of yours was it?
I bet one couod achieve this with a decent eurorack
“By far the worst is the Hamburger Lady…”
You can tell the composer was massively inspired by Throbbing Gristle! I thought that they had just genuinely sampled Hamburger Lady at first. Rest In Peace, Genesis
Doppler Effekt gesamtkuntswerk is the same too.
holy crap you're right. this is literally a throbbing gristle homage. I'm gonna have to disagree this is worse than HL. HL makes this sound like a bunch bleep-blorp noises playing in a laundromat
@@mrlevinielsen HL is much better I agree, there’s a lot more to the song but as a soundtrack this one works well! Nice to see cool inspiration
So happy to see another TG fan
One of the most unsettling pieces of cinema I've ever seen/heard. Pure genius
Honestly the best part of the whole movie is this soundtrack.
Gaspar and Thomas are phenomenal.
This sounds like it's straight out of Silent Hill and I love it.
Play this at my funeral
I want to hear more music exactly. Like this
Literally

Sounds like the THX logo refusing to start
omg that sound used to always scare me. I used to turn the volume down fast as possible when i heard it
Head of the Engineering Department: It seems as if the THX logo is having some electrical issues, and we're unable to get it to 100% start up.
Imagine hearing this while walking home at night 😨
French people have an absolutely genius knack of making gruesome and generally unnerving pieces of media.
Gotta love French Extremity
I was friend’s with a girl in high school who pressured me into watching anything: human centipede, cannibal holocaust, I spit on your gave, and some things I cant admit I could sit through. But omg, I chose to watch this as a sober adult and no film has ever ever bothered me close to this. Every part of my body was as messed up as this song made my ears
you know.....the feeling of watching the rectum scene for the first time, that's a feeling of chok you will never experience in a movie ever again, I envy people who have yet to watch Irreversible
My friend saw it at Cannes Film Festival when it first came out and he saw it and he walked out when the that scene in the tunnel and he said he would never watch that movie ever
Calming tunes from Thomas Bangalter "Daft Punk" don't forget that fact.
tis is the evil side of daft punk
Daft punk made this?
@@Teopae it was made by thomas bangalter, member from daft punk
Hello, here because of a playlist i found titles “anxiety inducing music”
True to it’s name.
honestly if this started playing id be afraid to move.
Me too
The playlist got deleted
The beginning (or the ending) of this movie with the camera moving in circles and this thing made me feel like I was dying fr
Scariest song ever.
Even scarier in the fire extinguisher scene of the movie, it fits so well
3:48 typical hardcore techno music at gay leather parties... Gaspar Noe knows the underground scene very well. This song was a perfect match for the 'Rectum" scene.. just love it. Greetings from Mexico City
Así es amigo, definió mucho esa escencia underground de forma muy literal. Saludos desde Monterrey!
yeah and how you know it
can you name some underground songs?
@@xdouble00 The Discography of Thomas Bangalter "Roulé" and Crydamoure, the other discography of G-Man and Eric Chédeville "Rico".
the first half of the film was basically the closest thing to manhunt: the movie
@@narcissismincarnate9201 I thought I was the only one who thought of that mission when I heard this.
@@narcissismincarnate9201 Red Light level felt more like Irreversible to me rather than Sexual Deviants level which was more Hostel like
The most horrific , brutal and relentlessly vicious film I've ever seen
It as well as Martyrs really fucked with me for a couple days after watching them, and I'm very desensitized to brutal as all hell movies. But Irreversible and Martyrs really struck me hard.
***** The rape scene is what did it for me in this movie. But I've never seen the movie you mentioned, might have to check it out though. I love any kind of movie that pushes boundaries and can make me feel uncomfortable. As long as it's still entertaining to watch. Doesn't have to be a fucking cinematic masterpiece or anything, just some good ol' fashioned grotesque ass entertainment, lol.
***** Hey, if it doesn't put me to sleep I'm game, lol. Gonna look into it. Always looking for new stuff that I haven't seen yet.
i personally find it more horrifying than the serbian film
+Cheese Block Same here. Serbian Film was so over the top crazy that I couldn't take it seriously enough to actually have much impact on me. Sure it has some shocking moments, but those moments are very over the top. While situations like the rape scene in Irreversible is something portrayed in a much more realistic manner.
apart from being ultra scary, the party backround makes it so good
Woah I had no idea Thomas from Daft Punk worked on the soundtrack of this movie. That's pretty neat.
This gives me Silent Hill vibes.
most fucked up and scariest music ever. goes well with that scene.
this song is so perfectly terrifying
sponge bob incident
Who would have thought one of the Daft Punk’s members made such a disturbing and nauseating soundtrack
To be fair to Daft Punk, it’s not like they haven’t used disturbing imagery before.
The music video for Prime Time of Your Life for example
@@ArtistTheArtist05 never seen it but ill check it out
That’s the thing about Thomas, Guy Man(the gold helmet) also had his own fair share of song. They had a cheer tune type. I recommend you listen to Guy Man’s Crydamoure, and Thomas’ Roule,
You go to sleep and wake up to this song playing, then you look and see a menacing SpongeBob balloon at the end of your hallway, staring at you and grinning.
There is nothing we can do...
Even without the context this music is absolutely fucking terrifying and I could see it be used in something equivalent to Silent Hill
I can’t see it being used in Silent Hill. Unless they get a horrifying club in the game then I don’t see it being used. I could see it be used for a game tho for sure
You should try listening to sountracks for the blind by swans. The first time i heard that album i felt like i was in silent hill 2
I never thought a Song could do that, but without knowing the movie, this szene makes me dizzy O.o
There’s a reason for that, sub-audible signals in the movie. It became incredibly popular after it began being used in the 70’s.

hallo david :c
I saw this movie one time 10 years ago. (Because who would watch it more than once right?) But today I saw some viral thing on tik tok with this music and my stomach dropped. The video was light hearted but I felt automatic dread. And I remembered exactly where I had heard it.. I came here to confirm. It. Tik tok sucks for this one
Tik Tok is awful. Show them the scene that accompanies this music and see if it's so lighthearted.
