"Lorn - Sega Sunset" from "Rarities" Purchase @ lorn.bandcamp.com/album/rarities Video excerpt from "Neo Tokyo" 1987 Segment directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri of Ninja Scroll fame.
@Kekulous well, I'll take abstract and satisfying electronic music over nu-metal any day my friend. Other metal genres are also better too so... I don't disagree with you, but your comment also didn't change my opinion on the subject.
Modern anime has been industrialized and of course, any anime with a weekly or monthly release would make shortcuts to release their product. I'm disappointed that this type of effort and technique is no longer required in production. It's just not worth it for the industry to make money.
@@jakeohalloran952 Yeah, I was referring to the fact that from late 80s to the early 2000s was the realism era of japanese animation And same, that period really is gold
It's 2056, an 87 year old is lying in a hospice bed, plagued with dimentia. The final things going through their mind is a vague recolection of playing arcade games in the 1980s.
I don’t know why, but I love how a lot of older anime had a more gritty and pseudo-realistic style to them, and marred with the intense colors and bat-shit insane visuals makes them so intriguing. Welp, now I have more shit to add to the “watch later” list.
@@jamalsterrett check out myanimelist. it's like the wikipedia for anime and search for stuff around 80s and 90s. ghost in the shell is another good one
Explanation - Zack Hugh (Banjō Ginga) is the titular "Running Man," the undefeated champion of the "Death Circus" racing circuit and has raced for 10 years. Competitors race in high-speed Formula One-like craft, and spectators bet on the lives of these people for huge winnings. We soon discover Hugh has telekinetic abilities which he uses to destroy the other racers, after quietly observing him in the dark, chronically over-using a training interface inside his penthouse. As the race ends in his favor, the monitors in the pit display "LIFE FUNCTIONS TERMINATED." Mysteriously, though seemingly dead, Hugh continues around the track and is overtaken by a spectral racer. He attempts to employ the same strategy, straining to destroy the opponent, but in truth it is against his own mind. The force of the telekinesis is directed inward which rapidly tears both Hugh and his car apart. The Death Circus is permanently shut down afterwards; Reporters believing the event's true draw was the spectators' need to see how long Hugh could beat death.
I discovered this song/video over 7 years ago and I was never able to find it again. I even doubted I had actually watched it. Tonight I came across it and it is the best feeling ever! This is a masterpiece.
This song immediately transports me to a different world, that is at the same time fascinating, and wonderful, but extremely dystopian, and that somehow makes me feel nostalgic for it.
This makes me feel like I'm on a drive to nowhere, speeding down an empty highway, going dangerously fast, yet feeling like everything is moving in slow motion. It's 3am. The city is asleep, but I'm awake trying to accept how nothing in my life will ever be the same.
the sheer intensity of this has stuck with me for years now. I'm commenting after all this time because this particular song and segment always lurks deep in the darker thoughts of my mind, waiting for me to forget just to remember again - the combination of the art and the song leave me completely breathless and numb in the mind still after 9 years. I cannot fathom a deeper, more meaningful combination of media.
This animation is the best and most intricate style of animation there is, involving more hours of work than any other type. The movie was highly underrated and should go down as one of the best in animation history. Something about riding the last stand is amazing
*Yeah* *Retro Anime from the video its from "Neo Tokyo" 1987 Segment directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri of Ninja Scroll fame.* *i reccomend you guys watch some like akira / metropolis (2001) / ghost in the shell / kimagure orange road / future war 1980x / geno cyber / megalobox / lain* *serial experiments / Cowboy Bebop / The Animatrix / Steamboy / Freedom / Memories*
There was a song used in another video that used one of the same sounds as this. I was studying for mid-terms and couldnt focus bc it was bothering me so much not knowing where i had heard it lol
It reminds me of a quote from prince of persia- warrior within "I am the architect of my own destruction" in which the main character has altered his destiny and is now being hunted by an immortal beast of time
Yeah exactly. Unsettling but very comforting kinda. Kind of a beauty behind the pain thing. Very dark but makes you kinda feel comfortable in the darkness
Interesting the sounds picked are verry violent yet the composition doesnt invoke hate or violence but rather serenity? Its like falling from a building to death, but slowly and gently
Ahh yes..one of the key experiences of a life well lived. All souls would do well to experience that at least once in their lifetime here.. Threre is a certain alchemy to it, which enhances everything thereafter.. if only you can surrender to its message and not resist its' unpleasantness
1:10 That expression he makes as he extends past his physical limits. It's not hesitation but it reads something like a moment of fear. This is beautifully edited and it seems to tell an even more interesting story than the source.
Did this last week, friend has a huge bass in his car, and it was so loud driving down a road in the middle of nowhere with the windows down at 3am. It felt like it was tearing at my chest and the high intensified it. Highly recommended.
I think I know what you mean. It feels validating because it's like the music is a friend who "understands". Sometimes you need to let yourself be drenched in the feeling before it can pass.
Well said. I shared this track with some of my freinds who suffer from PTSD. They said the same thing, it sent their anxiety sky high but turned it up. Other worldly
Lorn songs are often like a black rose. Only those who have crossed the darkness can see the full beauty of this rose and still you prick yourself with the thorn. the pain doesn't hurt that much.
@@OtisRLeePr Sega Sunset has the bleakness and echoing diminuendo of a western cry in the desert, but the electronic static and 80's film rhythm of the synths backed by those smooth, high and discrete longer whistles from another emotive synth/electro instrument, promote a romantic, awe-striking digital futurism. Blade Runner fantastically encapsulates these attributes, and for ex. would complement that scene in the new Blade Runner 2049, when Gosling finds the date carved in the tree on the deserted planet.
In my opinion, the man lost his soul by going over the speed limit, and his body continued to drive until he went around in a loop and caught up with his soul, and outstripped himself until he finally died.
I see so many different translations to this video. Unavoidable tragedy is a big one, however, I also see pushing past our limits. Taking ourselves to extremes that we aren't supposed to go but as humans we inevitably do. I see addiction, yearning for the highest high but that addiction kills you in the end. There's so much to these Lorn videos, truly it's art 🎨 😍
it's not only that, the driver had a personal disorder and he also had telekinesis, he thought he was killing the guy in front of him not knowing he was killing himself because of his disorder which made him confused.
Found Lorn on Christmas Eve (technically christmas) at 3am my Junior year of high-school, there will never be an artist to emotionally and physically effect me more than Lorn. In probably the most vulnerable moment of my entire life, I was saved by the most melancholic sounds to have ever been produced. I cannot explain how much this music means to me, Thank You! btw Anvil is the best song, but this is the best vid B)
Omg same. I've followed his work since then... and it's really inspired my general artistic mood and style ever since. It's like this grungy, gritty, textural thing that just stays with u. It's so cool.
thank you finally somebody knows what i mean..lol its hard to descirbe his music or be ready for it i was at a particular moment in my life i needed it funny someone a long time ago showed me him and i wasnt ready i remember not liking it at first now i love him cant get enough its funny young mind i had i really had no clue then,
Meaning of the video - Zack Hugh (Banjō Ginga) is the titular "Running Man," the undefeated champion of the "Death Circus" racing circuit and has raced for 10 years. Competitors race in high-speed Formula One-like craft, and spectators bet on the lives of these people for huge winnings. A Marlowe-esque reporter (Masane Tsukayama/Michael McConnohie) is sent to interview the mysterious Zack outside of the track and watches one of his races. He soon discovers Hugh has telekinetic abilities which he uses to destroy the other racers, after quietly observing him in the dark chronically over-using a training interface inside his penthouse. As the race ends in his favor, the monitors in the pit displays "LIFE FUNCTIONS TERMINATED." Mysteriously, though seemingly dead, Hugh continues around the track and is overtaken by a spectral racer. He attempts to employ the same strategy, straining to destroy the opponent, but in truth it is against his own mind. The force of the telekinesis is directed inward which rapidly tears both Hugh and his car apart. The Death Circus is permanently shut down afterwards; the reporter believing the event's true draw was the spectators need to see how long Hugh could beat death Source - Wiki - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo_Tokyo_(film) The running man.
Probably the best combination of video and music I've ever seen. As if they were made for each other from the very beginning, not separated by 20 years.
No, there are 3 segments and this segment ("Running Man") was directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri and not Katsuhiro Ōtomo. Katsuhiro directed the third segment ("Construction Cancellation Order").
Music is pure emotion, it's crazy to think that a few notes can bring a tear to your eyes. The sudden shift in tone, the essence of a soul embedded into a masterpiece. Art.
lorn i just discovered it and it feels like music i have heard before maybe in another life. i swear i have heard these before even though i just discovered them.
+Rin Tohsaka Not sure where you're from but censorship in the UK 80s was very strict from the BBFC who pretty much banned and cut every video nasty. Today, movies get away with a lot more, a 12a is more like a 15. I don't know what Japans censorship is like or if anyghing has changed but there has certainly been a saturation on anime.
I get full body goosebumps and chills up and down my spine and my mind goes fuzzy every time this song plays. and i don't mind it one bit. not to mention the visuals are beautiful and go so well with the song.
MetaCitizen I only learned of Lorn 1 1/2 days ago on Rage, Australia's music video show. I have listened to this track at least 6 times, and sent the video to all of my friends. I can't get enough of this.
In short: The seasoned undefeated champion “Zack Hugh” of the “Death Circus” has won yet another victory. His trick? While all other drivers are physically there. Zack uses telekinesis to control his car, and a cyborg driver... In this scene: The race is won, and the champ remains undefeated. After all of the other drivers have left the track. Zack goes for a victory lap. He continues to drive on, tearing around the track. A ghost driver suddenly appears. There can only be one champion.. Even after his body is pushed past its ultimate physical limit.. He pushes even further, past death to finish the race. They say it was a ghost of his past self he saw out there on that track...
I remember that day, when i found this track. I was sitting on window sill and watched the city from high building, outside the window was rainy. And this track fullfilled all that, what was happening in the city.
The anime is a short for the Running Man. A racer with telekinesis. The story is told from the narrators', a writer, point of view. It is one of the best ever made. The music at the end is haunting.
I don't know why, but this song brings up feelings of loss, specifically makes me remember a friend I had who took her own life a couple years ago. RIP Rachel.
This music tingles that certain part of my brain. The part that starts sparking up when you think too long about he concept of darkness. The one that sparks up when you try to understand the size of the universes around us. It’s like the fear of the unknown mixed with this helplessness and intimidation that whatever is out there, is better at surviving than you are. That it knows more somehow. The video is awesome and really extends this feeling but just. My god. There’s something absolutely unsettling about listening to this with nothing but your own thoughts too.
Excellent comment. English is not my first language, so I can't put it into words as good as you did. But this is what I associate with the vibe this song gives me: Are you really ready for the world out there? Are you going to make it? Are you ready to face your own death one certain day?
This gives me a more hopeless dismal and truly gray feeling, not yet black, yet decidedly very much so darker than white, despondent dreary and most of all.. Dingy. It feels ironically despite it's dystopian aura, very much so real
Nothing is more motivating than the impending sense of doom. Living our lives, we forget about our own demise, we forget about the fact that all of us will eventually die. When death comes closer, we can just regret that we haven't done more, that we can't do more. How many times do we live shallow, searching for cheap pleasures instead of fighting for what we truly care? Whenever I hear this song, it just makes me a bit more motivated to sort my life because the worst sin someone can do is not trying to fulfil his own potential. The guy in the anime chased his dream so much he eventually tried to catch his future self... . This song is more about life than death. We live cause we die.
Sometimes I like to lay in bed at night, when everyones asleep and not a single foreign sound can be heard, apart from the faint buzzing in my lights, my heartbeat and this song playing quietly on my phone beside me. Sometimes its great to have a minute of silence to yourself, when no one can say anything to hurt you, even my thoughts go silent. Sometimes I let a tear roll down, to remind myself I have come this far, and I will continue to go further. Sorry guys, Im feeling nostalgic tonight...
Vance Apollo I'm doing that right now. It's 5am and quiet enough that I can hear my heart beating. This music really complements the melange of silence.
Always when I see the intro I think like "that's the newest technology to date at 1987. It was all they had. They want to be able to come everywhere in the future." and now man we are living it.. in 2021 ..

I typed in Lorn instead of Korn. Best.Mistake.Ever.
I made the same mistake about a year ago. 😂
Welcome. You've found the second half of God.
yeah Korn is dogshit compared to Lorn honestly
That's like typing in help instead of hell

Japan 80s sci-fi animation sure hit differently
It's so sad to try to find good anime now... it's never coming back...
yeah I love old school stuff btwn 70s and 80s. They were a bit more mature, and some had real life message in them.
Modern anime has been industrialized and of course, any anime with a weekly or monthly release would make shortcuts to release their product. I'm disappointed that this type of effort and technique is no longer required in production. It's just not worth it for the industry to make money.
@@KarmineSlash older anime like this will forever be missed but not forgotten
Do you know what movie that's from ?
This song is like a expensive wine you only want to sip it every once in a while
Exactly
Best comment so far
one that, you can undesrtand when you are at your lowest
What if you back expensive wine like I do? :)
well said, i would use potent downer instead but same idea
Late 80's and early 90's anime is untouchable.
Late 90s and early 2000s too
The "realist" era of japanese animation
@@gian.4388 That period is either a tie or a close second for me. Basically anything late 80's to early 2000's and I'm in heaven.
@@jakeohalloran952 Yeah, I was referring to the fact that from late 80s to the early 2000s was the realism era of japanese animation
And same, that period really is gold
I like 70s anime better
Watch future war 1980x
This type of anime artsytle needs a revival tbh. There's a certain feel to them that just makes them special
yep like when the guys cigarette drops.
Just gimme a pen and paper and some paintbrushes and you got yourself a deal!
Probably because a lot of anime was hand drawn back then, and they didn’t rely too much on flash and photoshop animation
Yippers i agree!
Digital killed analogue
This song sounds like witnessing a tragedy and unable to stop it.
Like the END for us
I hear Stubborn Defiance against the odds personally.
Kinda like... life?
There is a part in the song that tells me "look at what the world has become" it's the heavy bass if you wanna know.
@Divinegon sometimes songs makes a message with no words which has a deep meaning
Still one of the best late night finds I have made
Home - resonance
watch shooting stars
x2
Sensacional! 🔵
maybe an even better late night find is when you lose enough weight to find your dick you mongrel
It's 2056, an 87 year old is lying in a hospice bed, plagued with dimentia.
The final things going through their mind is a vague recolection of playing arcade games in the 1980s.

This music sounds like a living organism, futuristic and ancient at the same time. Lorn is a genius. Period.
To me , this song represents the determination to either win in life or die trying.... all or nothing kind of deal and i support that

Has a lot of similar qualities to World Record from the Animatrix.

There was a song used in another video that used one of the same sounds as this. I was studying for mid-terms and couldnt focus bc it was bothering me so much not knowing where i had heard it lol
I know how you feel
I went after the artist and searched for "dead girls dance" and few seconds later I'm here :)
Idk why but I watched this high asf and cried
It reminds me of a quote from prince of persia- warrior within "I am the architect of my own destruction" in which the main character has altered his destiny and is now being hunted by an immortal beast of time
There's this certain feel to this anime artstyle. And that's because it is hand drawn. That just gives it so much soul. Every line tells a story.
Heavy Metal
I like the part where it goes Doo-di-doo BWOOOOOOOOOOOM
Beep boo boo bop?
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
heheh
You killed me ! :D
honestly, that's what everyone's here for. lol
This video, it just gives off some kinda aura... sad and angry yet comforting.
Sad for taking Comfort IN Anger
not sad but empowering

The humen condition
Yeah exactly. Unsettling but very comforting kinda. Kind of a beauty behind the pain thing. Very dark but makes you kinda feel comfortable in the darkness
I just spent 3 straight hours looking for this music video. Time well spent.
The theme to the hardest moment in your life, the moment you were born for, when everything has come together and now its time to over come it.
Interesting the sounds picked are verry violent yet the composition doesnt invoke hate or violence but rather serenity? Its like falling from a building to death, but slowly and gently

Yr there
Perfect when all the lights are off, and no one is trying to talk to you with the speakers loud enough to rattle the house.
this has to be one of the most epic music - video combinations ever. Pure bladerunner feeling
Whenever im in a bad state I come here and this makes me feel.... somehow worse yet, also somehow, in a good way.
Let the hate baptize you.
+BaneDain That pretty much sums up "Lorn" as a whole I reckon.
No, it's not hate. Its some kind of realization you didn't want to have, but must to...
I think I know what you mean. It feels validating because it's like the music is a friend who "understands". Sometimes you need to let yourself be drenched in the feeling before it can pass.
It feels good momentarily, but I don't think it would be good for you to dwell in such a darkened state for any lengthy period of time.
Lorn activates my flight or fight response and gives me the most intense anxiety....but I can’t stop listening
Their good at that alright.
Well said. I shared this track with some of my freinds who suffer from PTSD. They said the same thing, it sent their anxiety sky high but turned it up. Other worldly
The perfect description.
I thought I was the only one experiencing that sensation glad to know that I’m not alone
To quote Eric Andre: ''What in the goddamn hell are you talking about?''
Lorn songs are often like a black rose. Only those who have crossed the darkness can see the full beauty of this rose and still you prick yourself with the thorn. the pain doesn't hurt that much.

I see so many different translations to this video. Unavoidable tragedy is a big one, however, I also see pushing past our limits. Taking ourselves to extremes that we aren't supposed to go but as humans we inevitably do. I see addiction, yearning for the highest high but that addiction kills you in the end. There's so much to these Lorn videos, truly it's art 🎨 😍
I saw this on liquid television in the 90s, the running man
Thats the saddest, most beautiful thing I've ever heard. I keep coming back to this track and always get goosebumps.
Lorn has the most darkest and talented soul in the world. Wish to know him one day.
The saddest and most beautiful thing for me is Lorns other song Advil. I have never heard anything like that before
Much like most of his music... This one hits me right in the gut!💜
After diligently pondering this video, I've figured it out: he's going too fast.
hahaha
but did he died though
looll
ayyy lmao
it's not only that, the driver had a personal disorder and he also had telekinesis, he thought he was killing the guy in front of him not knowing he was killing himself because of his disorder which made him confused.
When you are in this state of mind, it hits twice powerful
Found Lorn on Christmas Eve (technically christmas) at 3am my Junior year of high-school, there will never be an artist to emotionally and physically effect me more than Lorn. In probably the most vulnerable moment of my entire life, I was saved by the most melancholic sounds to have ever been produced. I cannot explain how much this music means to me, Thank You!
btw Anvil is the best song, but this is the best vid B)
It has meaning, I'm glad you found comfort in it.
Omg same. I've followed his work since then... and it's really inspired my general artistic mood and style ever since. It's like this grungy, gritty, textural thing that just stays with u. It's so cool.
Acid Rain for me but I definitely see what you mean
This is amazing. I feel the same and ALSO YES. Anvil is the best one in my opinion as well !!
I just found lorn....his music has so much emotion it's crazy...you can feel it tells a story without any words...
You should do gaming or something
thank you finally somebody knows what i mean..lol its hard to descirbe his music or be ready for it i was at a particular moment in my life i needed it funny someone a long time ago showed me him and i wasnt ready i remember not liking it at first now i love him cant get enough its funny young mind i had i really had no clue then,
by the way if you like lorn you should hear apparat omg.........
Your f**&king right.........
Goosebumps. I am staying here.
Weird to see you here, you have a good taste sir :)
lol, trolski xD
ah, i see you're a man of culture as well (;
Always wind up in synthwave territory around 2 am into my 4th or 5 drink. It's the reset button. Don't even need to blow on the cartridge.

I was tripping yesterday listening to that and my brain exploded. Lorn is amazing
I saw this animation for the first time in the early 90's on liquid television. Pretty surprised and pleased to see it here.
if you're going through hell, keep going
sorry signs They'll kill you...
sorry signs if you are going through hell, be there for a reason xD
sorry signs 😂🙏
You know what the devil said about hell? "Welcome to hell! Who gives a shit!".
Sorry signs
Meaning of the video - Zack Hugh (Banjō Ginga) is the titular "Running Man," the undefeated champion of the "Death Circus" racing circuit and has raced for 10 years. Competitors race in high-speed Formula One-like craft, and spectators bet on the lives of these people for huge winnings. A Marlowe-esque reporter (Masane Tsukayama/Michael McConnohie) is sent to interview the mysterious Zack outside of the track and watches one of his races. He soon discovers Hugh has telekinetic abilities which he uses to destroy the other racers, after quietly observing him in the dark chronically over-using a training interface inside his penthouse. As the race ends in his favor, the monitors in the pit displays "LIFE FUNCTIONS TERMINATED." Mysteriously, though seemingly dead, Hugh continues around the track and is overtaken by a spectral racer. He attempts to employ the same strategy, straining to destroy the opponent, but in truth it is against his own mind. The force of the telekinesis is directed inward which rapidly tears both Hugh and his car apart. The Death Circus is permanently shut down afterwards; the reporter believing the event's true draw was the spectators need to see how long Hugh could beat death

thanks for that!
I was wondering about the meaning of the short for over 6 months.
You nailed it! great work, Loved this movie btw
Ameet Baliga the
Badass
The YT algo just knows when I'm blazed I swear to god
The combination of art and music here perfectly describe a man's life journey in one word, Suffering.
Probably the best combination of video and music I've ever seen. As if they were made for each other from the very beginning, not separated by 20 years.
yep, best combination, i wait this ispirated for more videos and musics
This has an Akira vibe to it.
thinking the same thing
the music too
This is part of a small movie from back in the 90s called Neo Tokyo, check it out!
omg same director!!!!! now it all makes sense, thanksssss
No, there are 3 segments and this segment ("Running Man") was directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri and not Katsuhiro Ōtomo.
Katsuhiro directed the third segment ("Construction Cancellation Order").
I really miss that late 80s early 90s anime aesthetic...
I don't know why songs like these make me cry. This music sounds like how pain feels. It's intensely emotional.
💙🌌
Music is pure emotion, it's crazy to think that a few notes can bring a tear to your eyes. The sudden shift in tone, the essence of a soul embedded into a masterpiece. Art.
God i just love the older style of anime, such a high contrast between the low saturation of the normal scenery colors and the neons everywhere else.
Corrodan Anime had less of a budget back then and wasn’t as popular around the world why did the animation change
@@magicman3163 Once anime hit mainstream, lazy and greedy companies churn out as much as they can in the shortest time period for more profit.
there is an anime coming out that has a modern and 80s/90s artstyle mix it looks very cool. Name: *Cyberpunk Edgerunners*
lorn i just discovered it and it feels like music i have heard before maybe in another life. i swear i have heard these before even though i just discovered them.
im not happy y
ExEDE exactly
Its like you can picture and feel an image that is within' your mind. A place where have been or going to be. That is some deep thinking haha
Gaby V That's crazy, I feel the same way!!!
off topic but A+ ERASED profile picture
Went searching for Sunset OST themes and Sega. Getting here was entirely by chance. So glad I did.
here from Dave and Dapper, may they rest in peace ❤️
I can't listen to this song without thinking of these visuals. Totally matched the late 80s anime style.
+Ronald Jones Yep, incredible how well it fits
anime use to be scary as shit back in the day....
with the old VHS commercials, does anyone else relate?
***** heh,likewise :)
Fuck yes. One piece is gay.
yep! I agree, ninja scroll and ninja resurrection are still terrifying
Real manga.
+Rin Tohsaka Not sure where you're from but censorship in the UK 80s was very strict from the BBFC who pretty much banned and cut every video nasty. Today, movies get away with a lot more, a 12a is more like a 15. I don't know what Japans censorship is like or if anyghing has changed but there has certainly been a saturation on anime.
I get full body goosebumps and chills up and down my spine and my mind goes fuzzy every time this song plays. and i don't mind it one bit. not to mention the visuals are beautiful and go so well with the song.
i cant believe something like this exists. fabulous. immaculate.
>When a patch nerfs your best car and your time trial ghost is now undefeatable.
most underrated comment here
Thats a scary concept
What its like to chew 5 gum
😂😂😂😂😂
I just spit pop tarts all over my screen and keyboard.
+MalignantAffliction Funniest comment I've seen in a long time.
read this at children's icu and laughed out loud.... think they are calling a therapist.

Lorn meets Yoshiaki Kawajiri?! How much better can it get? Very fitting. 😎😎👍
100,000 views! You guys are insane. I'll do a new lorn video this weekend for you all.
For the record, I did 3 of them. 😁
MetaCitizen your doing a great job.lorn is amazing :)
MetaCitizen I only learned of Lorn 1 1/2 days ago on Rage, Australia's music video show. I have listened to this track at least 6 times, and sent the video to all of my friends. I can't get enough of this.
+MetaCitizen this should have double the views
+MetaCitizen sub to my channel please
In short: The seasoned undefeated champion “Zack Hugh” of the “Death Circus” has won yet another victory.
His trick? While all other drivers are physically there. Zack uses telekinesis to control his car, and a cyborg driver...
In this scene:
The race is won, and the champ remains undefeated.
After all of the other drivers have left the track. Zack goes for a victory lap.
He continues to drive on, tearing around the track.
A ghost driver suddenly appears.
There can only be one champion..
Even after his body is pushed past its ultimate physical limit.. He pushes even further, past death to finish the race.
They say it was a ghost of his past self he saw out there on that track...
@Ivan Jimenez it's. In. The. Description.
Ivan Jimenez Neo Tokyo. The running man.
@Ivan Jimenez your. Welcome. Not. Smart. At. All.
The Anime is called "Neo Tokyo"
He wasted his life for nothing if we are being honest.
This song and video combo is incredible. Very ethereal and terrifying.
7 years later & im still drawn back into this intoxicating song 🥺🥰
you are your own worst enemy
And you are your best friend at the same time!!!
irrelevant amd lame
well if you believe more in somebody else than yourself,you are the lame irrelevant one(Mic drop)
@@cashiercontrol4392 It sounds like he was talking about the clip, rather than the music.
@@yodaone1574 no im not
I remember that day, when i found this track.
I was sitting on window sill and watched the city from high building, outside the window was rainy. And this track fullfilled all that, what was happening in the city.
What genius put these two together 🖼️ + 🎶
That fact that i saw this when i was so young that i thought it was a dream. NEO TOKYO thank you lorn.
The anime is a short for the Running Man. A racer with telekinesis. The story is told from the narrators', a writer, point of view. It is one of the best ever made. The music at the end is haunting.
this shit trippy as hell
Ewok
check out Kill the Noise by Black magic. claymation and gory as all hell. super tripped out.
blackmagicbyktn
I don't know why, but this song brings up feelings of loss, specifically makes me remember a friend I had who took her own life a couple years ago. RIP Rachel.
Sorry for your friend, bro
aswell right now me too feeling so loss inside
80s 90s anime will never be matched bro
This video just goes so well with this track.
This music tingles that certain part of my brain. The part that starts sparking up when you think too long about he concept of darkness. The one that sparks up when you try to understand the size of the universes around us. It’s like the fear of the unknown mixed with this helplessness and intimidation that whatever is out there, is better at surviving than you are. That it knows more somehow. The video is awesome and really extends this feeling but just. My god. There’s something absolutely unsettling about listening to this with nothing but your own thoughts too.
Excellent comment. English is not my first language, so I can't put it into words as good as you did. But this is what I associate with the vibe this song gives me: Are you really ready for the world out there? Are you going to make it? Are you ready to face your own death one certain day?
This gives me a more hopeless dismal and truly gray feeling, not yet black, yet decidedly very much so darker than white, despondent dreary and most of all.. Dingy. It feels ironically despite it's dystopian aura, very much so real
Yes, you perfectly described it.
I would love to know more people like you with excellent feeling of moment and understading conecpts of unknow reality. Thank you for your comment !
I randomly found this a year ago and H A D to find it again. I’m so glad I did.
It's amazing ! brillaint choice of animation
Nothing is more motivating than the impending sense of doom. Living our lives, we forget about our own demise, we forget about the fact that all of us will eventually die. When death comes closer, we can just regret that we haven't done more, that we can't do more. How many times do we live shallow, searching for cheap pleasures instead of fighting for what we truly care? Whenever I hear this song, it just makes me a bit more motivated to sort my life because the worst sin someone can do is not trying to fulfil his own potential. The guy in the anime chased his dream so much he eventually tried to catch his future self... . This song is more about life than death. We live cause we die.
That’s cool In all but I found this song because of the doge sex meme
@@odinbodin244 ?
@@odinbodin244 saaame bruh lmao
Do we forget? I feel like you got that from some shakespeare play
I feel yah. Discipline is rewarding.
The dude makes the best "Cyberpunk" music in the world. Thumbs up.
This song gives me some good Blade Runner vibes and Lorn and Dolor often collab ua-cam.com/video/mNsL1LLHOzk/v-deo.html
This reminds me of Hans Zimmer, and i mean this in the best way possible. Absolutely beautiful...
Anime used to be so organic and thick with atmosphere. It used to captivate us
with a eerie presence of another world that we could only dream of.
Sometimes I like to lay in bed at night, when everyones asleep and not a single foreign sound can be heard, apart from the faint buzzing in my lights, my heartbeat and this song playing quietly on my phone beside me. Sometimes its great to have a minute of silence to yourself, when no one can say anything to hurt you, even my thoughts go silent. Sometimes I let a tear roll down, to remind myself I have come this far, and I will continue to go further. Sorry guys, Im feeling nostalgic tonight...
You know those nights when its so silent you can almost hear yourself think?
same, let's all feel nostalgic together lol
Vance Apollo I'm doing that right now. It's 5am and quiet enough that I can hear my heart beating. This music really complements the melange of silence.
👌🏽
Sometimes i listen to this and touch myself innapropriately in public..........
I don't remember F Zero being so intense!
AnyBodyWannaPeanut if this is what fzero really was, I'd be so deep into that shit my face would be gone from all the awesome melting it
Always when I see the intro I think like "that's the newest technology to date at 1987. It was all they had. They want to be able to come everywhere in the future." and now man we are living it.. in 2021 ..
This song was played by Aphex live Twin in Mexico 2019! I was there and i didn't knew that until now.
