What Does Music Look Like?

What does music look like? With a troupe of dancers, a few buckets of paint and UE BOOM, we're going to find out.

I listened to N*Sync the other day and felt like I was in middle school/high school again ... it's funny how certain songs will take you back. THANKS MUSIC!

For most of the video I was thinking "How long did it take them to wash that off?"

[bassistheplace]

Please stop calling dubstep music. It isn't. Music has talent and instruments (maybe even natural voice). Not sampling, drum machines, and wub-wubs. While I give dubstep points for having at least a simple rhythm, it's FAR from modern Miley and the bleeps and bloops of the NES (that's saying a lot).

I get what they were saying but it's not what I expected I kind of thought this video would SHOW(understand that word carefully) what all genres of music looked like not cut out the most awesome of genres (in my opinion) which is rock and metal. All I saw/heard was hip hop, rap, and dubstep....as usual :/

You can't see music. You hear it, and that's the beauty of it. It's a whole other sensation that can bring about different emotions. 

[MrMeagain]

This is something I came up with a while back that describes the way I feel about music. Words have so much power. They can change people's minds, way of life, and their opinions. Instruments have the power to change people's emotions in ways that we can't even explain. Put those two things together, and you have an unparalleled, even addicting, experience that can't be shared using only one tool or the other. Music is how we express the unexpressable. #makemusicsocial

I expected them to kind of portray the feelings you get from each genre, like you feel like you're in a subway or walking past graffiti if it's hip hop, around a big party if it's pop, you're on a cemetery if it's death metal etc that would've been pretty interesting.

Sometimes when is see people getting inspired I like to remind them that the point in life is to survive and reproduce

[Juliana]

As a synesthesiac, this is cool to watch cuz I see the music in my head but am also seeing what other people "see" it as (even if it's not as literally as when I see music)!

[wanderlust__]

Who else though when they first saw the girl with red hands it was blood. I think I watch too many crime shows...

[Cranies]

This isn't about music, this is about dance. Rather, a dancer's interpretation.

[BaselineFunk]

Yeah i just watched a comercial to watch a comercial  for speakers...great

[bonesj]

Soooo, music looks like a brick wall with paint splattered all over it?

[Feedaneeshaqua]

I hate when people try to be deep but when you actually listen to what they're saying, it's just a bunch of words that don't really make sense. That's how I feel about this video.

[madmanmumbles]

first, where I sit, before where I stand. vocal training, classically & showtune focused - the score is where it starts - gowing into jazz - and where that takes a person, logically. been doing music recreationally for over fifty years
No bragging, just context.
What I see here is raw, energy - with the music being both a muse and fence - but not a fence in any sort of traditional sense - a boundary, set to see where 'beyond' starts.
Not all is beautiful, but you 'll never know, until you step 'beyond' how far beauty goes.
And to be honest, I don't know from 'dubstep' - I just hear - and see - music when I see my grandchildren move to what comes out of the speakers - they are as free as the pinon jay, and as raucous, and as beautiful
Nuff said (by me, anyway).

Wow. I love how I finished this video thinking, Oh my God, this is so great, I bet people are feeling so inspired right now. And then I read the comments, and 95% of them are people bashing other people's music.

[colehovermale]

This is beautiful. No hate, bashing, or negativity. Just music. 💗💗💗💗

[lauriplesco]

I started off with Waltz On Wheels and moved on to Native, Sufi, Modern, etc. Someone used to ask me why I don't just choreograph "normal" dancing... my answer: There is no "normal" We all have our own dance that only comes out with the medium and music that your illusion creates. I started off calling this "Dancing with my Painted Feet"; it was a test with little children, then the adults wanted to participate.. you cant NOT want to dance with "color" and abandonment. I am... abandoned.

[kamikaze]

Look, I prefer rap music, it takes heart and soul to make a song that flows well and can change the atmosphere like people like Eminem, or Logic. But to the people who say dubstep isn't real music, it takes a lot of editing and perfecting and timing to get those sounds in the right spot. It takes effort, and flows. That's called music.

[TheBlindGuy]

The title should be what dance looks like.. Music isn't really seen but felt
