giant steps

it's more like a vid for some 8-bit electro pop innit. the pixel aesthetic does NOT work for Trane's music.

with that said, it is well done, and pretty neat.

eeek. when i hear Giant Steps, that's not what i see!

What do you see then? - its neat, in a 1 dimensional way, nice progression of the build up and down of the tune, and very cyclic, as is the nature of trad jazz.

Jazz is so utterly non-straight-lined/linear this just feels wrong at first, but it grows on you. The live video from the artist's site uses similar digital grafx in a live setting to good effect.

exactly although it somehow reminds me of that quote, 'writing about music is like dancing about architecture.' It does seem like a hyperactive architecture video as if the building is trying to dance.
