I have watched this video so many times over the past couple years.... To me it epitomizes everything I love about this amazing band. Innovative songwriting, original utilization of technology, and overall untouchable, impossible-to-reproduce ideas.
my favourite of all favourite bands. These guys have moved me almost to tears in the past with their beautiful blend of the electronic and acoustic, and have been a massive inspiration. YOU RULE! Five stars for the analogue wizards!
just saw them live a few weeks ago in Minneapolis! solid set anf I've always loved their work! but honestly if they had brought this up on their set I'd die happy.
Mouse on Mars live auf VIVA 2...das waren noch Zeiten als es gute Musiksender in Deutschland gab, heute gibt es leider nur noch Klingeltonmusiksender in Deutschland...
happens everywhere, unfortunately. it happened to mtv in the US. eventually it stopped running music videos altogether and became mostly 'reality' shows and cell phone ads. the music/tv industries are in survival-mode at this point...only thinking about short-term profit, at the expense of maintaining good product that doesn't sell as well. so shows that offer good music like this get dumped. it is a real shame.
1:25 The thing he's hitting looks like a (maybe modified) Coron drum synth. Those are little analog percussion synths from the 70s/80s, that were intended as addition to a regular drum set. They're triggered via a piezo (=just hit them) and can make cool spacey sounds: ua-cam.com/video/kCAenl74e-s/v-deo.html There are several of versions of those, the DS-7 Drum Synce seems to be popular, then there's also a DS-3, this one looks more like the DS-8 from above video tho, don't know how they differ, but probably not that much at all. Originals have become collectors items and pretty expensive but there are some modern clones, even as DIY sets: ua-cam.com/video/fU3d4Mr_LC8/v-deo.html
funny thing is, that nobody will remember that kind of music in the »survival mode«. search just for viva 2 on youtube...you will find a lot......this tv station wasn't existing very long, but the gave us a picture of underground musicculture around the millennium. people will that remember nearly fot ever...
Hi guys & fellers. I just sent you a video response Str8 Sounds "If I Was Human" as tribute to you, my favorite electronic band. I am promoting your videos on Twitter.
@rzujk Wie gut, dass in die sog. "tief-provinzielle pseudo-großstadt, in der mainstream seine heimat hat", demnächst (am 21.01.2011) mouse on mars in die kammerspiele kommen...und zu euch ni-hicht...^^ haha *ggggg* :DDDDDDD
@1026WestAddison lol, I am guessing you missed, 'the' in his comment. He was saying the drummer is awesome, not shit. Unless you are trolling me then ugh lol
i miss viva zwei sooooo much. after that, german music tv turned really bad. just ringtone ad's and the same stupid wannabe-ghetto-stuff. the producers said, viva zwei was to expensive to produce and not rentable. shame over tv producers who were just thinking about money!!!!!!

The drumming is so crazy in this. Gotta love MoM.
If only this weren't 240p.
If only.
Old school is so...
Once again I return to this video; one of my favorite performances, and always inspiring.
I have seen them live 3 times and every time they got on the stage the threatened to bring the drummer next time.
Which it never happened.
Same here. This performance is absolutely incredible. Nobody I show it to ever understands!
my favourite of all favourite bands. These guys have moved me almost to tears in the past with their beautiful blend of the electronic and acoustic, and have been a massive inspiration. YOU RULE! Five stars for the analogue wizards!
this is better than album version by far
love that drum beat
just saw them live a few weeks ago in Minneapolis! solid set anf I've always loved their work! but honestly if they had brought this up on their set I'd die happy.
Yea they not use to play the old stuff anymore .. Even i know your comment is 3 years old from now.
album version is so sad.....this should be on the album.
Mouse on Mars live auf VIVA 2...das waren noch Zeiten als es gute Musiksender in Deutschland gab, heute gibt es leider nur noch Klingeltonmusiksender in Deutschland...
Und jetzt gibt es VIVA 1 auch nicht mehr.......XD
I forgot how lit their live shows are
I remember seeing this on tv in Germany 1999-2000, if its the same
Пацаны ваще ребята!
Finally somebody is posting this video! Thanks!!!

Boy! They do play one mean Casio, don't they!
Makes me wish I'ld stuck with experimenting more with the cheesy tone bank included with mine.
Excellent!!!

What else is on that little stand with the 303? Guitar pedals? Any idea of what are they?

Holy crap, and I thought the album version was good... I'm speechless.
Demasiado experimental.
ist einfach der geilste shit on earth ^^
Oh.
the shift a 5:03 reminds of Charley Brown for some reason
Teh drummers got teh crabs lol
i think he's circuit bending the synth somehow, dunno
is there a higher quality version of this video?
No - higher visual quality wasn't possible, the German copyright association GEMA would have maybe blocked it. The sound upload is very good !
what is he hitting with his finger?
Vienen a Lima por la pmadre!! :P
@Tulpenknicker123 Denkt dir noch der Radiosender Evosonic? Das war der beste Sender aller Zeiten!!!
does anybody know where this gig was?
@1026WestAddison he's cool
Hi guys & fellers. I just sent you a video response Str8 Sounds "If I Was Human" as tribute to you, my favorite electronic band. I am promoting your videos on Twitter.
scratch that, hes just tapping his finger to the music
who is the drummer?
If you want something really freaky, try ZHEIMEER, available on youtube! Have fun!
Vulvaland? wha? it's from Autoditacker!
warum kennt keiner, den ich hier in münchen kenn, diese coole combo? deswegen glaub ich dass ich zumindest in dieser hinsicht in muc falsch bin....^^
I like Daniel Tosh's band more than his show.
Hi to all,
Check my video response... they were AWESOME in my city... and I hope they perform again soon!!!
Greets from LIMA (Peru),
Cocteaulab
@rzujk Wie gut, dass in die sog. "tief-provinzielle pseudo-großstadt, in der mainstream seine heimat hat",
demnächst (am 21.01.2011) mouse on mars in die kammerspiele kommen...und zu euch ni-hicht...^^ haha *ggggg* :DDDDDDD
sorry, i mean »viva zwei« of course....
@MrSKINFLICK take a pill, man. holy shit.
Take a pill yourself or maybe an overdose of pills.

@1026WestAddison
lol, I am guessing you missed, 'the' in his comment. He was saying the drummer is awesome, not shit. Unless you are trolling me then ugh lol
that drummer is the shit
I think GLAM is better.
i miss viva zwei sooooo much. after that, german music tv turned really bad. just ringtone ad's and the same stupid wannabe-ghetto-stuff.
the producers said, viva zwei was to expensive to produce and not rentable. shame over tv producers who were just thinking about money!!!!!!
