One thing that has been bugging me for a while, is that the the music by you, aMUSiC, and Leviathan, make very good soundtrack together, that doesn’t have much of a sync with the visuals. It seems as if you just put a track over a silent composition, far away. It seems as if you and Leviathan are distant from the coder and the 3 graphic artists.
What groups did in the past, and what some groups continue today, is to almost make audio and video one. Maybe you should do so as well.
5:20 is the most evocative and beautiful moment in the modern demoscene
Visually one of the most stunning demos ever. Musically, seems a lot of people agree it’s lacking a bit. I’ve had that with ASD demos for a while.
Being a guitarist myself, I think part of the problem is the guitars just sounding too weak and thin. What you need is a mix with a level of bombast that matches the visuals.
@amusicgr You should’ve done more for your part. The visuals are amazing and the music ruins it for me. Hope to hear more from you in the future.
there is no bend it is all bent - weird so, so what.
Did love this demo so much. Thanks for the creators from making this <3
One person must have expected to watch “Sadness is Around the Bend”
I’m really suprised to find out that ASD is a greek group.

This has to be the best demo ever made. One thing though, the music totally Kicks ass. The animations and demo itself are kick ass Just, why name the music “Tortuga turtle??”

#OMG didnt know you can put this many epicnes fit in 8 Minutes! THIS IS PURE ART!!!
GFX A+
MSC… not so much :/
Superb…
Guys, I love your demo making style, it’s really stunning, your art goes beyond just a demo, it’s a form of modern art, should be shown on TV. Really awesome. Thanks a lot!
thank you for all your great art
Demo’s like this remind me what, digital art work is all about, the blend of code, art and music, bringing a 8minute piece of beauty. In a hundred years time I really hope that these pieces are not forgotten, and that the makers are revered like the classical painters and composers of old.
Another great ASD demo. Thanks!!!
@Boulotaur2024 I personally accept all types of critisism (I’m Leviathan btw) but it’s just hard to keep everybody happy my friend and I would defenatelly NOT write a mainstream thingy just to win votes, above all it’s about respecting what the team of the group really likes to do and vice versa. I hope next time we’ll write a more pleasing track I guess.
Constructive criticism here : while the visuals are incredible, I find the music very bland. I know it took a lot of work and care but it lacks -melody-wise- the “catchy” factor that makes a tune “unforgettable”. Remember Purple Motion could create magic with only 4 channels but a real talent at composing. Production-wise, the drums should definitely be more punchier, yeah it lacks punchiness
Great to hear some metal riffs in this demo. Wish more demos had a sturdy metal track, it adds grit and punch to the presentation. Lots of work went into this. Good job guys.
