- Download the high quality MP3 for free at www.CryonautMusic.com It was the artwork of legendary designer and futurist, Syd Mead, that inspired the overall sound of this tune, so I decided to do an alternative video showcasing some of Syd's work. He certainly had a talent for depicting a beautiful, optimistic, high tech world where people and their ultra-slick vehicles could relax and play in style. Thanks, Syd, for treating the world to a glimpse of such a wonderful future!

RIP Syd Mead, what a legend. May his work live on forever. Thanks for making this, a fitting tribute indeed.
My sentiments exactly... and thank you!
His vision has permanently changed our world. *goosebumps* Excellent tribute, Cryonaut.
I stumbled upon Syd's work one day and instantly fell in love. As an actor and writer I love telling stories which inspire people similar to how Syd's art has inspired me. Adding on to that, I want a future like the scenes we see in his art. Such an imaginative and talented human being.
Thee are some of the most outstanding visuals of the future that l've ever seen . If there is an after life this is where l want to be , Syd Mead was a genius !
Me too! I would hope that if there is indeed an afterlife, the powers that be would put Syd in charge of redesigning the place :)
As a kid growing up in the 60s and 70s this was my future. I want it back!!
Yeah, where's my jetpack already? I'm still optimistic that we'll achieve some form of utopia one day, but who knows how long that might take...
Thanks for sharing. Rest in peace Syd Mead 😔😢💕
Thanks for your work, putting this all together. Wonderful music. I am nearly 60 now, reminds me of my youth when I first heard about Syd.
You're very welcome, Martin - glad you enjoyed it!
That guitar mixed into it all, is frikkin awesome. I love this!
charmed by this music! too few thumbs up)
Hi, there Cryonaut, your music is awesome, i think this one of the best i've hear in 2019-2020, i love your music presentation & rendering, as much i love Syd Mead & his artworks. Greetings from one of your fans from Indonesia.
Wow - thank you so much! It's always a thrill to hear where my listeners are from. Indonesia has always been on my travel list, and one day I hope to see that beautiful part of the world. All the best from Canada! :)
A vision of a future that never was. A dream of inspiration that will live forever. RIP Sydnis Mead.
Amazing how the imagination of one person can inspire so many. I do hope his vision lives forever to inspire millions more.
I'd like to walk throught on one of those environnements while listening to this.
Me too. Such an incredible world he created...
Love Syd Mead. Justice has been done :D
Pretty jazzy. For a while I was on Syd's Christmas card list, getting them as emails. Friendly genius. Blade Runner sequel could have used a couple of Syd's street level ideas. Not the first film look. Just one or two shots of giant street nighttime space. I have it all picked out...
I can't express enough how thrilled I am for having discovered your music.
Krishnamohan Chandrahasan And I can't express how good it makes me feel to read your words! Thank you so much!!!
Revolutionary! Finally, there's a music type for the following words - awe, wonder, adventure, future, intelligence, cosmic, space, universe, interstellar, inter-galactic, science, imagination...Remarkable music as a backdrop for the works of a revolutionary artist (Syd Mead)
Krishnamohan Chandrahasan Thank you again, KC! I really do try to infuse my music with an almost spiritual sense of awe and wonder when it comes to thinking about things like space travel, the future, technology, etc., and I'm glad it's gradually finding an audience! Stay tuned for more good stuff on the way! :)
r.i.p.!
I just found out that he passed. So sad - the world has lost a tremendous visionary. We'll miss you, Syd! :(
@@CryonautMusic yes! :( oh and by the way thank you for this AWESOME video! it is sad for me to re-discover him now... as i saw a few of his paintings when i was in school in books...
@@patrick86806 Glad you like it - too bad it was under unfortunate circumstances...
22JAM2024 - Outstanding job this. And talk about save the best for last. Heck yeah, we absolutely should have an observation deck and hotel rooms built on a single peak in the Grand Canyon. Only one though. Think of how truly awesome that would be. And all the proceeds would go towards helping maintain natural habitat. But we gotta stop hating on each before we can focus on doing something spectacular. Hold fast, humanity. We are being tested.
This was an audiovisual gift of epic proportion! I especially liked the BOC sound touch... Good one
Thanks, Jes! I'm glad you liked it and appreciate the kind words. Stay tuned for more! :)
great
Really fantastic tunes. I love that you're releasing your mp3s for free, but I'd also buy a compilation on bandcamp or something :D
+Liam Smyth Hey, thanks, Liam! Once I have a full album's worth of material, I'll definitely be putting together a high-quality release for sale somewhere (but still have free versions available). I'm still working on new stuff, so stay tuned! :)
sorry if I'm asking too much, but I can't find this particular track on your page.
no no, never mind. just found it.
Why didn't you make more like these? It's great ;)
Loving all your stuff, what program(s) do you use to make your awesome music?
+Paraneoz Thanks, Paraneoz - that means a lot to me! :) Primarily, I use Logic Pro X on a Mac Mini, but I also dabble with Native Instruments software synths, such as Massive, Absynth, FM8, etc. Recently, Logic updated their software to include the fantastic Alchemy synth, so I'm starting to play around with that one as well. Logic Pro is so powerful and so comprehensive now, that this music could all be done easily with Logic alone - no other software needed, really.
+Cryonaut Awesome thanks for that man, looking forward to hearing more of your stuff and will check out Logic Pro X!
1:42 The only reason cars don't look cool like that today is because of pedestrian collisions. Modern cars have to have a large amount of space between the engine and the hood so the hood can crumple. Wedges also slice people in half at high speeds. (im not joking btw)
Not quite. The safest for pedestrians is a low nose and hood so that if hit they land on the hood and stay on it, rather than flying into the air, or getting run over. The trend for SUVs (which has nothing to do with safety or regulations) is mainly why cars don’t look like this.
1:10 hey not that far off.
Music was great until I heard the guitar and drums.
Decent illustrator but his ideas are too general and generic
He's the one of the biggest inspiration in term of scifi so of course his work feels generic today since it's been copied a lot.
