I love it!

Also kudos on not succumbing to the temptation of just stitching together tons of unrelated but 'ironic' footage from archive.org. Not that you'd have such poor taste, but damn if that isn't how all that great footage is used most of the time...

As for this, it functions as a straight up beautiful sequence of images and movement too. Stands on its own two legs visually rather than just being a "hey, check it out - this is old! funny huh?" ;-)

Great work! Boy I'm being negative when I mean to be positive!

thanks for the niceness.
yeah i think i'll put it on other video platforms too.

it was just supposed to be a fun project for a lazy tuesday morning, but so many people seem to like it, that i will definitely promote it more

yeah, agree with hecanjog, it's very nicely done, she's a great dancer
do you know from which dance company this came from?
could be the hong kong ballet, they're REALLY good and very skilled

sweet track too btw, is that you on vocals?

thanks!

i have no idea which dance company this came from.
i just did a search for "chinese opera" on archive.org. i didn't really read the description, except for the "expired copyright" bit.

and yes, that's me on vocals.
the whole track is totally unfinished and not yet really mixed. but i was excited enough to post it.
working on the album is really hard work, but duuuuuuudes, for the first time in years i'm somewhat proud of my own music

Now, how do I put it? You sound totally unfocussed. Do yourself a favour and stick to two ideas per track,
all this glitter jitter, it makes me cough up : )
Please, listen to me ... Or go on crafting statues with three heads and a billion fingers...
And stop over-compressing your tunes. One can smell the lack of confidence hum hum
