I will never tire of listening to and seeing Aquaharp. I believe this is truly one of the world’s musical treasures as are all of the pieces those two men created years ago when there was even less computer graphics capabilities than today!
I’ve known “Aqua Harp” twenty years already. But I never fully realized how beautiful it is to me until tonight. I shared it to a very many contacts and I’m looping it like an OCD patient !!!
animusic was a big part of my childhood. im 20 (now 21. i still come back to this lmao) and stumbled across these remasters through my recommendations. hell, i sleep with aqua harp in the background sometimes. you definitely earned a sub from me for remastering these edit: i know no one has said anything about this, but i just want to make sure no one thinks i meant it like this: "You definitely earned a sub from me" as in im so important lmao (and now 22. ok im done now😂)
yooo its the same for me... my dad showed animusic dvd's on our old home theater when i was younger. this is a masterpiece for sure, it gave me goosebumps.
This is such a great song. I know that this is mainly showing off computer animations back then. Coming back to it these string instrument ones are definitely my favorite. Specifically Aqua Harp, Pogo sticks, and Resonant Chamber. But all time favorite is Pipe Dream.
Funny you say that, there was a restaurant I'd go to sometimes and the celing looked just like the celing in this video. I always called it the Aqua Harp room.
I started to listen when the eight or nine head guitar first play, if it was on tape I’d would have wore it out. The men and women who worked on this are a credit to their job. Today I still love the sounds, and light with the vibrations of the music. Thanks
I have such nostalgia for Animusic. I remember I would watch both 1 and 2 all the time as a kid and this one was always my favorite. It's just such a calming song and the visuals and atmosphere are so captivating.
An interesting part of this is that the harp strings are vibrating in a way that suggests a dominant 3rd harmonic contributes strongly to their tone. Not being a harpist, I can't speak to whether that is true or not for the real-life instrument. But it certainly seems it could be possible.
i wanna know how they rig the strings for animation because i can tell its not physics based but is instead based on curves ... i wanna see about making this in blender lol
@@W4t3rf1r3 yes but the rigs that drive the animations need to be setup properly it does not just do what you want you have to tell the rig which thing does what and add key frames between notes so it appears fluid i wanna know how they rigged the strings specifically
I believe something to do with having some sine multiplied onto each segment in the string, like having a static string being multiple 0, and a fully sine at multiple 1, and then doing something like sine(time*3600)*intensity for the actual wave bit, when the string is hit, set time to 0 and intensity to the hit intensity, decrease intensity until 0 through some curve, or maybe its some mathematically calculated string, or maybe its something completely different because the strings on the far sides appear to almost be a point sliding across the moving instrument with two strings
@@samuels1123 im aware of the sinewaves bits but thats not the issue ... the issue is how would one rig up a workable system in blender to do this properly
@@Ponlets I'm far from an expert but I'm sure a Python script could do it. Throw a thin cylinder onto a path(?) and deform the path with it. Edit: Oh yeah you might also be able to use geometry nodes, forgot those were a thing now lol
I remember watching these s a kid in music class. I always think bout them now again and ws always captivated me. The visus, the sounds. Just everything was so fun.
I used to have my teacher in my old middle school play these videos. It was a good time but I got bullied alought. It was a very bad time for me. But otherwise this helped me become strong.
once upon a time i watched this animation as a young-un at a really low quality, thought the harp was fully submerged underwater, and thus mistook the harp picks for fish
i thought of lyrics: Lying on the sand ground, In the beautiful sea Fish start swimming around. The clear water is free No restrictions or sound. Bubbles pop with much glee There was a harp that I found. I'll play it, guaranteed. I might get hurt by the strings. I don't care about that. I just wanted to play. Here comes the note g flat The harp's sound is stunning. It has beautiful matte. When It comes to music, I'll make sure to act...

I have always loved Animusic and the creative genius behind it. I now challenge all to listen to Alone in Kyoto from Lost in Translation soundtrack and tell me there are not similarities!
True OG’s would recognize how the ending of Stick Figures and beginning of Aqua Harp fit in perfectly together. That’s cause it went in that order, Stick Figures them Aqua Harp then I don’t remember the rest.
this song to me reminds me of the area of Elpis from FFXIV Endwalker. a place where the world was yet unsundered and perfect. yet the undertone of sorrow hints at darker days ahead
So sad these guys didn't get to do more. Their attention to detail has yet to be matched. Not even close. Notice that the vibrating strings have nodes. The little knobs doing vibrato. Stuff like that.
Using interpolation to increase framerate is not remastering. True remastering would involve using the source files to rerender the whole thing in a higher framerate.
Anyone else find it weird how the strings are always resonating at the third harmonic? The plucking position is right for that, but it's also correct for the fundamental frequency...
My elementary school music teacher would play these for us. Something triggered this specific memory for me today, I’m so glad I could find it!!
Same, except middle school.:3
Same
Same
Same it would always put me to sleep in music class
Same
I will never tire of listening to and seeing Aquaharp. I believe this is truly one of the world’s musical treasures as are all of the pieces those two men created years ago when there was even less computer graphics capabilities than today!
When I do tire of it, I'm falling asleep to it!
Animusic was not apart of my childhood, but I know it was for many other's, and watching the whole series has made me realize why
The one piece of animusic that makes me cry
I’ve known “Aqua Harp” twenty years already.
But I never fully realized how beautiful it is to me until tonight.
I shared it to a very many contacts and I’m looping it like an OCD patient !!!
I appreciate the creativity of combining all the different instruments into one. Beautiful. Reminds me of my grandpa who used to show me these

Dude, it's so sad to hear that most kids didn't grow up listening to this. I still have the DVDs
I love this song so much. It is a soothing song for if you are stressed of angry
Or
Ah, Aqua Harp is such a wonderful song by Animusic. I just love the combination of the flute, tubular bells, harp, cello, and violin!
Gute Idee
Genau so, Tape
WOW!!!! Enter the Peaceful Music..... Water.... Only thing's missing Candles a Comfy Chair and Relax!!
Beautiful piece of Music. Never get tired of listening. So peaceful.
This is absolutely stunning. It really touches the soul. Thanks for uploading this fantastic piece!
This is such a great song. I know that this is mainly showing off computer animations back then. Coming back to it these string instrument ones are definitely my favorite. Specifically Aqua Harp, Pogo sticks, and Resonant Chamber. But all time favorite is Pipe Dream.
To me it sounds a bit pro wrestling-ish. No idea why.
I also like Acoustic Curves' wild west sound, and Harmonic Voltage's Guardians Of The Galaxy (and Tron, the 80's movie) feel!
Imagine if this was at a restaurant and whenever someone flips a coin into the water, it’ll play a song 😊
Funny you say that, there was a restaurant I'd go to sometimes and the celing looked just like the celing in this video. I always called it the Aqua Harp room.
Like stars? Or the wall's texture
@@Villagerslime An ocean of stars!
That was beyond a simple masterpiece. I was truly saddened to hear it end.
All good things you know

never tire to listen this piece of art

After twenty years, I finally realized that the water droplets that were plucking the strings triggered the flutes.
I’m gonna happy cry a little.
I always thought they were two fish, in love 🐟
Aw!
Beautiful music can capture the imagination and free the mind from reality
Extraordinary... Abundantly creating!!! Namaste!!!
That is simply amazing !! I've not seen or heard of this before, but I like it 👍👍👍
I remember watching these s a kid in music class. I always think bout them now again and ws always captivated me. The visus, the sounds. Just everything was so fun.
Ahhh, good memories.
Thanks!
Thank you Julian, for this remaster.
Beautiful.
Very very beautiful song from the aquatic harp
One of my favs!
My childhood music class was basically just all of these
Ah wow, it's almost like Shivers (1995) in 3D! Beautiful.
Superbe 🎶💓🎶
Fantastic !
Ein juvel ❤
Ruhe und gelassenheit
Thank you so much for putting these on UA-cam! I can now cherish some great memories and make new ones with my kids
This is tremendously excellent. Saved to goog
This was the first Animusic song I ever saw!
... in School!
This video is Awesome! I love this song period! Just relaxing and beautiful!😊
lsdlaldoamaga d3 soon kaidoqkokakz🥲
Truly relaxing
This is like a lullaby to me. It helps me sleep :)
I used to have my teacher in my old middle school play these videos. It was a good time but I got bullied alought. It was a very bad time for me. But otherwise this helped me become strong.
This is my favorite
Forbidden nostalgia unlocked-
Core Memory Unlocked: Animusic
I would love to see a recreation of all parts with real instruments
once upon a time i watched this animation as a young-un at a really low quality, thought the harp was fully submerged underwater, and thus mistook the harp picks for fish
I love playing this on my harp
Das Video nimmt dich für eine kurze Zeit in eine bessere Welt mit, wenn man will, dafür Danke.
it is the most relaxing music in animusic
i thought of lyrics:
Lying on the sand ground, In the beautiful sea
Fish start swimming around. The clear water is free
No restrictions or sound. Bubbles pop with much glee
There was a harp that I found. I'll play it, guaranteed.
I might get hurt by the strings. I don't care about that.
I just wanted to play. Here comes the note g flat
The harp's sound is stunning. It has beautiful matte.
When It comes to music, I'll make sure to act...
The ocean goes dark (Sleep the night away)
The oceans grows cold (Freezing in dismay)
Lying on the sand ground, In the beautiful sea
Fish start swimming around. The clear water is free
No restrictions or sound. Bubbles pop with much glee
There was a harp that I found. I'll play it, guaranteed. (Here I am, listen to me)

Nice beautiful lyrics.
This is so under-rated
Quite amusing! I hope someone would do a cover on this, since I myself can't sing.
YOU ACTUALLY DID GREAT!!!
NOW I ACTUALLY WANNA SEE THIS!
WE NEED MORE ANIMUSIC WITH LYRICS
I have always loved Animusic and the creative genius behind it. I now challenge all to listen to Alone in Kyoto from Lost in Translation soundtrack and tell me there are not similarities!
The key to music is all life? That brings all happiness in the world 🌎
Hope
True OG’s would recognize how the ending of Stick Figures and beginning of Aqua Harp fit in perfectly together. That’s cause it went in that order, Stick Figures them Aqua Harp then I don’t remember the rest.
I like the scene. Someone should make this inside a house, maybe with some outside illusion.
Muito gratificante
Back when times were simpler
this song to me reminds me of the area of Elpis from FFXIV Endwalker. a place where the world was yet unsundered and perfect. yet the undertone of sorrow hints at darker days ahead
Прям по струнам души..............
Can you make a aqua harp part two
At 1:44, the two high notes that play are not the same between the flute and harp portions. Never noticed this before lol.
I noticed that too. It is a minor error, but noticable.
0:51-0:59 It takes me loving 🖤❤️🤎🤍🤎🤍🖤🤍🤎♥️
love your vid. you just earned a sub from me 😊
With slight alterations this could be a Minecraft bg track
Erleben was gutes
I have a CD Of animusic. This song never played the audio, i was always interested how it was. Found it. It’s cool
I love you so much
Voor mijn begravenis. ❤
Das ist gut ,da kannste keinen Verletzen
Endlich Mal Denken
Why is there a harp in the water?
❤
Думаете, мир без людей это мир гармонии.
I see this at school
Das System angetrieben von?
Sacándola con la guitarra ;)
😍😍😍
I would really like to see these re-rendered with high quality materials, textures, and animations in something like unreal engine 5.
A channel called Lasers, Lights, and Music is doing just that.
@@NathanShaw-zw8sh THANKYOU FOR SHARING THIS OMFG!!!!
So sad these guys didn't get to do more. Their attention to detail has yet to be matched. Not even close. Notice that the vibrating strings have nodes. The little knobs doing vibrato. Stuff like that.

EL USAR EL CHOQUE DE BOLAS PARA HACER MUSICA, ES LO MAS GENIAL A MI PARECER ...
D.E.D.C. BRAVO !
Когда maestro умирает его душа попадает в такое вот пространство
1:45 and 2:16 sounds nice
Goodnight
This sounds like something for a water temple in a zelda game
The start sounds like the theme for 'Donnie Darko'
So pretty. PLEASE make new Animusic Vids!
I wasn't sure if I was having a flashback to Manheim Steamroller or Minecraft for a moment.

How are the violin bow, the hammers and the violin fret things floating

Using interpolation to increase framerate is not remastering. True remastering would involve using the source files to rerender the whole thing in a higher framerate.
Anyone else find it weird how the strings are always resonating at the third harmonic? The plucking position is right for that, but it's also correct for the fundamental frequency...
How is the air just ransomly coming out and also why is there so much air coming out
If this wasn't what inspired the music from RuneScape I'll eat my hat hahaha
Something seems off about the audio... Like if you took the volume of each notes and sharpened the curve at the beginning...
This an iykyk song
How are the 'droplets' at 0:15 floating
