Minecraft, but it’s a Portal Parkour Music Sync

I love music synchronization, I love portals, and I love complicated contraptions. This video combines all three. Very excited to finally be able to share this! It has been months in the making.

Here's a fun fact about the start of the video I'd like to share. My goal was to create a dark cavern with randomly placed twinkling lights. Using worldedit I found a method to place the redstone lamps with a random distribution. Once they were placed I wanted to connect all of them with a single line of redstone. Sounds easy, but it turns out, finding the shortest path to connect all of them was the NP-hard traveling salesman problem. One crude python implementation later, I had them all connected! Plots of the optimization can be found on my twitter.

Mods Used: (Minecraft 1.16.5-forge-36.2.0)

Also shoutout to my friend Colin for posing in the thumbnail, decorating the walls of the hole at the Elytra start, and providing countless feedback.

I make a variety of music synchronized videos, but more Minecraft content is coming in the future. Feel free to subscribe if you don’t want to miss BeatCraft 6!

i cannot IMAGINE how much you had to reset to pull off the crazy tricks like at 4:40. doing all this in one take is absolutely astounding, and with the creativity you have on top? actually insane

[MadMovieMakers]

Now you're thinking with portals and music

[randomguy]

I love how even small little details such as opening a chest and taking whats in it (1:02) are synced to the music. Really well done!

[WackoMcGoose]

Honestly, I would've assumed you did it by editing input sequences in a TAS... the fact that it was actually real-time is really impressive (and the dozens of failed takes a relatable mood).

[Yasha_U]

i cannot imagine the time and effort... AND PC! needed to make these kind of contraptions... you are an amazing person ❤️

[gamergod]

Huge fan of this part right here: 2:22

Edit: probably my favorite one so far, love that it's a remix of a music disc just like the first one, how creative it was, and especially the fact that it uses both the create, and immersive portals mod.

[Mogi.]

Bro what did i just watch. This is insane

[McMakistein]

Holy crap, 80 attempts for that whole thing is mighty impressive! Probably would have taken me 200 for the first minute alone! O_o

[richflyawesome]

The way you combined immersive portals and create is outstanding, anyone who has experience with those 2 mods knows how incompatible they are with each other and fact that you were not only able to make them work together but is such a great way is amazing, you have my respect and a like.

You went above and beyond in this, and then you went even further. You sir, are a madman. I love it.


Also I love you Mufasa

The beautiful drop here at 2:22 and flying with an Elytra under the sun with that music makes it all so perfect.

[tutterstan]

the magical lights at the beginning… the way the cat follows you on the journey… the dancing parrots… the cat cameo at the end… this is by far my fave video of yours :’)

[popcycle]

My brain hurts, I can't imagine how long this took you. The amount of effort put into these videos are phenomenal. Keep up the good work

[ainedroid]

That was such a good use of the immersive portals mod and the create mod! They blended in so well together and it was so satisfying to watch. The Cat remix is also such a bop

[smhh]

I love how the glowstone represents the notes in the song at 5:26, and how they’re timed so well. A detail I only noticed the second time watching it.

[awas]

The fact that his character's default running with view bobbing matches the beat is just astounding

[stickmanonastick]

Remember when this channel used to be clever marble contraptions? The creativity and quality has improved so much over all this time, its crazy! Great work! <3

[greenethorn]

This video was astounding!!! I can't believe you did this all in one take, and the synchronization is incredible!! It seemed like every little detail synced up to the music and the cat making several appearances throughout the video was a fun touch I enjoyed. My favorite part was the elytra, it looked almost cinematic

[AquatexZ]

Hell yeah! I love when one of these comes out, the sync on these are just beautiful all the time
