I like how Michael needed a new tune for his new show, so he hit Jake up and Jake created his best tune yet for him. Gotta love those two

Whenever I listen to Jake Chudnow, I feel like he knows something we don’t

[Lilraqz]

I'm glad that vsauce still uses your music after all this time

[marriedatthemorgue]

I genuinely can’t get enough of this song. I come back to it so damn often

[chalkymilo]

now that mindfield is free, you know you are going to have your mind fucked up with knowledge as soon as this starts playing

A song: *has synth*
Everyone: "Dude, it's like Stranger Things"

Fun fact: Multiplying strings of 1’s will give cool numbers.
11 squared: 121
111 squared: 12, 321
1, 111 squared: 1, 234, 321
11, 111 squared: 123, 454, 321

The pattern: n of 1 in each #: highest digit in string*

*pattern breaks at 1, 111, 111, 111 squared (1.2345 quintillion) due to a lack of digits. the in between between 9’s are zeros.

I’m not sure, but doing this in higher bases will result in longer count up/downs.

Maybe if I listen to this for long enough Michael will return

[yoinkling]

LMAO he does ALL of vsause's music. Mega ultra props my guy, thanks for the IQ.

I remember when the comments were filled with vsauce quotes, and I come back after a few months to numbers

[oweznero]

Finally mind field episodes are free 💕😍

"THE NUMBERS MASON, WHAT DO THEY MEAN?"

[spontaneouscookie]

I've had this as my ringtone for years.
Also my alarm, which probably made me like the song a little less due to the trauma of waking up to an alarm.

[savantshuia]

i'm dissapointed with this community
just appreciate the music and post a normal comment

[NewbyTon]

Just like smash mouth with Shrek,
You shall now be known as the vsauce music dude

*Sees two completely different looking triangles

*Flips the right one 180 degrees to reveal they're the same





*MIND BLOWN*
