You are soo coool!!!! Beautifull sound and visual design
This needs more attention
Did you make the song aswell or just the visual?
@@perperperpen Both.
@Chris Jones you give me sci fi movie vibes in this song I dunno but I’m thinking men in black, also good song and animation very underrated
Why does this feel like he recorded pure imagination that just.. makes sense???
Grace Keeler cracracraaaackheaad
Grace Keeler
Lmao I was joking
Grace Keeler lsd doesnt make you a crack head dawg, i had it 2-3 times by now and it has always been a really interesting (positive) expirience
@@Anybody34 It's a drug, so it does make you a crackhead lmao
@Grace Keeler I have questions sir ..what's a third eye ? how did u open it ? Was it a good experience ? Im so curious
I would love to see this on a massive cinema screen
I'd love seeing this in 3D, IN VR 180 :D
@@Firepal3D actually this video in 3d world be one of the most amazing things in internet, because actually it is also one of the most amazing
It sounds like is from "now u see me"
Hope you've realized your wish
Gerry Scrudi oh my gosh you right
I am just leaving this comment here to say this *NEEDS* more attention. Chris spent over 4 years on this, i think it needs the attention it deserves. All I’m saying is this man is extremely talented and he gets barely any attention. If you look at some other people they do content that has no effort put into it and gets over 10,000,000 views. This needs more views, so I ask you all. Please, please share this as much as you can. Because I must admit, this is better than a sci-fi Pixar film!
The sad thing that usually the output matters, not the work that was put into.
@@PinkeySuavo the output is still amazing
It's because everyone else uses bots.
Not even 10 million views, some effortless content get over hundreds of millions of views. I suppose there are not enough people in the world who appreciate effort.
@@iSyriux Shutup bozo replies didn't exist 8 years ago do he had to comment to reply to someone idiot you're a kid
My mind is blown, inspired, and upset that I didn't find this masterpiece sooner! Keep up the great work Chris you are a true artist!
A man of culture.
Hi DoodleChaos! I couldn't agree more! Love your vids btw, cool to see you here :)
Yooo
Oh that's what the rush e 3d channel is called...
@@adamcaspe5139yh lol 😅😂
The instrumental is what does it
this looks and feels like a intro cinematic of a sci-fi movie
exactly what i was thinking
@Tyrel Hansen yea! its like 2020 to 100000000000.00000000000000.0000000000000 years from NOW!
Reminded me of the original Spider-Man movie intro
It remind anyone else of Spider-Man or call of duty ghosts
but better
honestly, if i worked 4 years to make something like this, and it got only 14k views, then i'd give up on everything. this is one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen, and it deserves at least 1 million views. it really makes me sad that this doesnt get the attention it should. you really gotta try to share this further, i wanna see it hit 1 million views at some point!
Edit: I see some people say that this is a wrong way to think, and in hindsight, idk why I wrote the comment like that; I wanted to emphasize how this video deserves more attention, not say that anyone should give up when hard work doesn't immediately pay off (or at least that's what I'd say today).
Guys, This is like a gem. U can't find everywhere. Thanks for recognizing, appreciating.
UA-cam is his side career.. he made this for some organization i guess
A year on from your comment and I couldn't agree more, I've just come across it and can't believe it was posted so long ago, it deserves a full marketing team behind it, it is quite spectacular.
4 years to make this?
@@SethMilnerr Back when i wrote the comment, the description said that he worked 4 years on it
i just started studying physics and I actually understood some of the visualizations, im mind blown in every way
Wow, didn't expect to find you here! This is certainly a work of art. Haven't gotten to such a level that I understand any of this yet lol, but it looks very cool nonetheless.
bro i love your music
I found your Ping song randomly on UA-cam Music lol. Also amen, this video is absolutely nuts.
Mucho agree
gives Marvel big hero vibes
This is what the term "underrated masterpiece" was made for, change my mind.
This is really a clear indication that the UA-cam algorithm is a complete dud. 100% positive comments, bugger all push from the algo. Maybe they think 100% positive is impossible so it must be bots :)
overrated is just looking at the bad side not the good side, change my mind

“Every string was animated”
👐👏👐👏👐👏
wait wait wait wait
what
I thought he maybe used something like Animation Nodes to automate it
did the old description really say this?
edit:typo
Wow, that’s amazing
@@Ikxi this is what I thought of as well! I heard that he made this vid in over 4 years, that dedication and passion is unmatched!
I thought he used an algorithm but he took the time to animate it spot on?
wow
@@sonicsupersam7793 well, maybe that explains somehow why he spent 4 years making this masterpiece.
This is like Animusic, but way more cinematic and high-tech! I'm impressed
Good to see you here
greetings
so am i, also hello cary
H
Hello cary
This is honestly movie score-level. So rich and layered; classical and modern all at once. Bravo, my dude.
This guy is insanely talented
uhhh I'm pretty sure this is how the original X-Men move starts.
This is the type of video that should be the intro to some amazing movie, not just a UA-cam video with 60 thousand views.
True
А хули у тебя Путин на аве
That moment when you see an upload from one of the channels you forgot you were subscribed to.
It's special
I just found his channel watched all videos and now that will be me :( i will not see videos from him for a while
Nunca vi/ouvi uma cena assim
@@simonsilva250 Br ta tem todo lugar
I spent my whole life creating music, and this vfx artist created a masterpiece I would never be able to think about composing. Wow.
Don't worry, he has well over 2.5 decades of experience in music. Atleast that's how much I know about. Probably even more that isn't even documented on the internet.
This is a true experience. It exceeds in all facets that it includes. I can't even imagine what any of this would look like while it was being made its just mind blowing. This is something everyone should see.
@@1iknow are you dead
well, certainly didnt expect you to be the top comment when i wanted to listen to this song while doing your zamwam project.
This has so little views it's unfair. This has become my favorite video on UA-cam no joke. The soundtrack is excellent but animation is also godly
It's also made by a single guy.
@@spoono Pure dedication. All the respects for this man.
Out of the 10k videos (or more) I have watched on UA-cam this is my fav
Yup Chris Jones is the best Human alive
Needs billion views , and beat those stupid rapping clips.
this could easily make it into a high production movie. absolutely phenomenal work
and then they made a sqworm :'D
@@tamari1910 Yes I saw that lol
@@tamari1910 not they, he made it
@@myemilia_gdl i dont want to assume the gender of the person eh- but okay (im not well informed about the person who made those things)
Okk
How this doesn't have at least 10M views blows my mind, it's quite rare to find something with this level of quality on yt
Since release i always come back to see this underrated masterpiece
This is one of the most astonishing pieces of artwork and music I've seen in ages. In my life, I would like to do just one thing this cool. This needs to be nominated for so many awards. This should be trending on UA-cam. Let's all get the word out and get Mr. Jones here some much deserved recognition!
Blender is open source and completely free! Download it and you'll be able to make something like this one day.
Tokyo Mobster I have been using LightWave 3D for 24 years. I have an Emmy Award and been nominated 3 other times. I have worked on Star Trek, Firefly, Battlestar Galactica and Eureka.
And yet... I have still never made anything THIS cool. :-) This is next-level creativity, combined with legendary execution. Only a sprinkling of people on the planet could conceive of such a project, let alone complete it. Even if he never does another piece of art in his life, Mr. Jones still has my deepest respect and admiration.
I guess there's literally zero hope of me getting getting this good ever! 😭
@@biltrex I agree with you. Im a certified er. & an ar. , but As an artist I have always dreamt of making something like this someday since my boyhood. But now surprisingly I got here by utube algorithm. Its wonderful when you see someone who done exactly what you have thought as a whole new level. This is jus phenomenal. I think he is an artistic beast. I wanna be his shisyan
@@biltrex the combination of smooth transition and visual eyeguiding is exceptional. U can basically feel the force at some point. And you notice like 5 min later that you go "slower" or "faster". Its a strange feeling i get here. You are completely alone in this World and fight your way truth your decisions. Kinda like i would describe It.
ever noticed how hans zimmer been quiet since this dropped?
LMAO
Well hans and Chris are at both level i think
@@Azchk You just can’t compare art I guess, but that thing’s quality is insane ngl, synths were sharp, bass was clear and defined, the mix and master are top notch and that composition is H O T
@@Azchk hmmm, shallow mindset... sucks to suck.
@@Azchk I mean, you think Hans just woke up a "hollywood film score composer?"
Imagine waiting A YEAR to render a video...Truly mind blown blowing
This needs to be screened in a movie theater
This could be at the end credits of a high end movie
datGuy0309 actually tho like damn, This is top notch stuff right here 👀
Spiderman: into the quantum world
@@lx4302 exactly
I honestly felt like I was watching a Hollywood sci-fi film. Truly incredible, both the animation and the music.
This is so underrated i mean he even did the music
4 years' worth of effort was put into this. This isn't just impressive, it's a true achievement in independent artistry.
I feel like I just witnessed a fully fledged movie.
I like how it eventually zooms out to a galaxy/black hole at the end, showing how every part of the universe is made of "strings."
Yeah thats string theory
i didn't get anything. i am to dumb for this.
Daniel [PAVOLU] look up string theory
This oddly feels like a bunch of battle hungry gods fighting in "space", or a plane of existence we don't understand.
3:09 alone feels like two entities racing across the multiverse in unfathomable speeds, fueled by uncontested rage and lust for destruction. When they both collide at 3:23 it gives of a celestial explosion feel but far greater in magnitude than any star could produce, to properly describe it is "The largest blackhole known to man exploding".
The best part is it that continues to make a different story in my mind at 3:52 but is still connected to the latter; after said destructive impact of the two gods/celestial beings the inhabitants or what remained of them rush to escape the rotting part of that area in search of a new place to call their own. Most of them didn't make it.
At 4:40 it gives off the impression that whatever being created this universe saw the destruction and wanted to create someone or something to rectify the destruction by making new places for lesser beings to live in and destroy those wreaking havoc among their universe. The seemingly unstable but powerful dot at 5:31 is the creation intended to bring order and it makes it's presence known at 5:42 by making a new galaxy or something akin to those lines.
Then the "lawbringer" goes to chase the other things causing destruction in their universe at 6:31, destroying them all.
Lord, no comment! verything that you wrote here - I already know. It was like you stole my thoughts and wrote them here... This is really what I represent about this video! I just do not understand how the author is now offended for the small amount of space for the content of which it took 4 years... THIS IS A MASTERPIECE. Everything that I have written may sound strange to you, since I am from Russia, and this commentary has been translated using Google Translate.
I still don't understand why this work of supreme art has not hit the trends and has not received millions of views around the world. This masterpiece definitely deserves more attention. I've been watching this video countless times, and I don't get bored. These 7 minutes pass like 3, honestly
This gives off the same feeling as Willy Wonka's intro
Except stringy
I was thinking the same thing :D
for me, it gave the spider Man movie intro feeling!
@@kaexewires7531 same
DUDE I WAS JUST ABOUT TO COMMENT THIS
@@kaexewires7531 So...in other words, a somewhat Danny Elfman feeling?
This is literally art, and there was not a word spoken
It is the highest form of art, purely abstract
101 percent agree
This NEEDS to be rerendered at 8k 60FPS and then the raw file needs to be available somewhere. UA-cam compression is NOT having it with this video even at 4K. Absolute masterpiece!
I get chills every second of this whole video. I'm practically hypnotized.
same, i couldn't describe the adrenaline rush I had when i first watched this vid.
The 14 people who disliked probably thought that these were the answers to their science test
NOOO I CAN'T BELIEVE IT YOU FINISHED THE ED SOUNDTRACK!! I'm so happy I love your work so much!
I've been making music for a long time and I can't even imagine making something a fraction as complex and cinematic sounding as this. The fact that you not only did the music but also the visuals just completely blows my mind. Amazing ✌🏽
This should be played on 4k TVs in the stores everywhere.
And I would just watch it on repeat.
This is probably one of the most beautiful and smartly executed pieces of music that I’ve ever heard. Why am I just now hearing it
The man. The myth. The legend returns
As someone that loves physics and science in general this is awesome.
I agree with my self.
This video seriously needs more attention.
This held my attention from the first moment till the last, brilliant artistry on everything, music, camera, concepts, everything is working here.
When some people ask you to release the full version of your music, so instead you visualize a theoretical framework in the most satisfactory way AND give them the full version of your music.
I remember when this dropped I was like "this is so gonna blow up" 350k views is not enough. this should have at least 10 mil by now
This should be something that movie theaters play as a demo or something. If I owned a theater I would definitely buy a license to this video.
Bruh, it's been 4 years.
Edit: Wow. Just when I expected it to end, it just kept coming. Good render!
Yee
literally cinema level, no joke
I have a lack of words to express the emotions this induces in me. This deserves to be remembered as one of the masterpieces of our time.
One of the most amazing things I've ever seen....
This looks like a real passion project you had. Sick animations and music dude! Loved it. And the camera work is amazing too. It gave me butterflies in my stomack at some point.
Also, what do you use to make the music? I'm very curious.
Thanks - it's mainly Zebra, EWQLSO and Stormdrum in Cubase.
Chris Jones you deserve 50 million subscribers lmao you are so underrated
@@tubgold I agree it
@@danielalp6871 read the desc
@@tubgold He definitely is. I only found out about him today... I love music. This music is very special. And the video is one of the best in the world. Full stop.
This... this right here is one of the greatest videos i've ever seen on this platform, and the fact the doesn't have over 1 million views makes me wonder what other masterpieces are out there waiting to be viewed.
This man doesn't cease to blow me away every time. I've listened to this song so many times now and it never gets old. I'm incredibly impressed with this man's musical talent, especially being a music artist myself I can feel the sheer amount of blood sweat and tears put into making this song. This deserves so much more attention than it's getting. Keep up the good work
This was my most listened to song on Spotify. I think I alone raised the average plays per month a little bit 😂
The blue light racer dot is unarguably the best protaganist in any movie I have ever watched.
Everyone in the comments.
REMEMBER ME!
More music videos like these should exist. This is award winning!
It's definitely is bro, shame that most people are interested in stupid things
@@Eternal_23 What's funny is that I added this to my music playlist since this is pretty much a music video.
@@damasterofskitsees lol same! 😂

And the twists! Got me emotional.
magic. This is one of those rare videos that I watch with awe and wonder "how did the artist even do this." pure magic.
I know, right?
Winamp visualizations on steroids! Good work, mate!
I still love Winamp and use it, some time ago it get an update to 5.8. And 2019 it says on the homepage it will be back again, i hope after so many years it still will be the feeling it gave over all these years, but imagine how awesome it would be to get such visualizations like THIS?! :O
I love winamps for years but woah. :D
Maybe it's a secret project and they work together :D i loved Ed it was sooooo awesome and now this..,
Ed gave me the chills and more than anything else that the imagination that the Matrix could be real. haha Brainfuck at it's best. :D
Superb.
@@616Metalhead616 with the help of realtime neural network processing, we can get a song split in instruments and those intstruments separated in midi triggers that individually make up notes in harmony using an pre coded set of instructions. This would really be cool. So far we can make stuff react to frequencies haha
Didn't even get bored like YOU CAN'T GET BORED the animation, the music it's just amazing. It's so freaking cool everybody need to see this art piece :) God I wish I could meet this man and just.. hug him and ask for his autograph, is it too much to ask ?
Seriously though, the amount of talent on display is both insane and extremely inspiring.
That was freaking awesome! What an audiovisual experience!
I constantly come here just to listen and enjoy this masterpiece journey. I'm so glad to have discovered this early and enjoy it for many years and Its great to see the comments filled with people who are equally as blown away as I was when I first watched it and I still am.
I was lost in this musical universe
Pure combination of the most beautiful audiovisual art, the feeling of a tear and a smile when galaxies collapse when you close your eyes...
It's the best video I've seen in more than a year, brutal.
My friend that must be one of the most beautiful CGI footage I haver seen. The fact that this was done by one person blows my mind. I was just sitting in front of my screen with open mouth getting blown away multiple times. You deserve so much more!!! I will share!
This is and will remain my favorite video of all time. Every time I watch it I’m mesmerized as it takes me onto a whole journey! It’s almost rude to call this a video instead of a masterpiece.
Holy crap THIS IS THE 👏 MOST 👏 UNDERRATED 👏 VIDEO 👏 EVER 👏
Memento mori
this is the most beautiful visual representation of music ive ever seen its so accurate. i myself draw how i see notes and feel music but can never get it quite this is perfect
Somebody did his homework! I love how the strings are vibrating in different modes, tracing different geometries. I'm so impressed by this composition, and the visuals are stunning. Amazing work.
Idk man i just keep coming back to this magnificent work.
This would be cool for a movie intro! YESSS
They need this guy to design a doctor who intro.
How? how does this not have more views? Watching this took me on an insane journey.
This was created in over 4-year period. Let that sink in. Holy sht
I just got this in my suggestions, and it's... truly fantastic.
It's so visceral. The camera unsteadiness, the dust, the DOF, the motion blur... but the soundtrack... oh my god... It's been a while since I was so immersed.
Truly a visual and musical marriage of perfection. Love it!
Man,this is my favourite music video on this platform, period. Nothing else can even come close to this masterpiece right here. I would happily pay top money to get the uncompressed video. I felt that I don't deserve to see this for free. Really.
03:25 is sooo beautifully animated!!
This person deserves at *LEAST* 100 million subscribers.

Couldn't agree more!

this feels like the spider Man movie intro... this is legitimately REALLY good and awesome to see!
Swiss watch companies employ 20 master watch makers to build 1 watch meticulously and sell for $250,000. Chris Jones single handedly spent 4 years making this creative piece of work and we get to watch it for FREE. It's not fair for someone like Chris but I'm glad we have the chance to experience his work.
my mind won't be the same again, so beautiful
This is too underrated. I’m mesmerized
Omg.................AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is seriously one of the most impressive things I've ever seen. Even took the originality and creativity down to the music! Absolutely astonishing and incredible work, Chris. Keep doing what you do.

Imagine there's whole another universe inside every quarks of every proton and we can never see how that universe looks in our entire human but this video interprets it exactly.
The fact that he rendered this on a 2008 PC for A YEAR in total, is literally, like, insane
@@user-vi9zm5ss4f Well, it doesn't mention in the description him upgrading his PC, so probably not?

If I spent 4 years making something like this..
And wasn’t viral..
I would probably cry and just give up-
Props to you
You are a master. I have no idea how you did this.
My mind is absolutely and completely blown. Whooooooooa. So freaking amazing. What composing and VFX tallent!!!
