We purchased these after seeing it featured on PBS. Our children (2 and 4) LOVE THEM!! They are fun to listen to and extremely entertaining to watch. The children dance to them. If you buy these you will not regret it.

OHMYGOSH! Amazing, astounding, wonderful and fun doesn't even begin to cover these dvd's. I absolutely LOVE THEM. I shared them with my family and friends. Everyone loved them. They are NOT just for kids. I am still blown away by the combined graphics and music. In the Resonant Chamber, if I had not known I was watching animation, I would have thought I was seeing a real instrument. I can't wait until they come out with more.

A friend loaned us Animusic II and my husband and I absolutely LOVE it. We have played it over and over, sometimes we watch it and most times we just listen to it. It's very inventive. Wayne Lylte and friends are brilliant. We intend to buy both I and II.

The first disc of this two disc set includes a segment frequently forwarded in emails as a "John Deer musical device" but is actually a computer generated musical Rube-Goldberg device. I bought this set for my wife, who is a music teacher for an elementary school, and her students love it. She uses the videos as an example for her "make your own instrument" lesson to spark creativity and imagination. The music does get a bit repetitive at times and does not make for amazing listening in and of itself but the video is what makes this program.

I got into watching this through apple's site when I was upgrading my Quicktime and was like wow, now this is cool. So went ahead and got it and it is cool. Some more entertaining then others. The music is very midi, like on the early days of the web. I watched it on my big screen and it looks real good. So far no one, including myself, has sat for more than 3 animations in a row. I like it and enjoyed it and will keep it as a permanent part of my DVD collection.

I see new things every time I watch them. Everyone that I show them to want to borrow them or they get the info and order them.

My son's guidance counselor introduced him to this set of DVD's. We bought it for Christmas for him and it has inspired him in his own music lessons and has enriched his love and appreciation for good music. His artwork even reflects some of the characters from the DVD's. Great product!

These are two of the coolest DVDs you will ever get. Words cant describe them. You just have to watch and go WOW!!!

An amazing fusion of sound and sight. The animations are awe-inspiring visual creations of cutting-edge computer animation. The music explores all genres with equal fidelity (exception: No rap pollutes this musical masterpiece.) Reminiscent of the musical talent of Emerson Lake and Palmer and the visual performances of Manheim Steamroller, with better special effects than Star Wars.

My 12 year old son loves the Animusic dvds. They are truly amazing to watch. Great for music lovers. He always turns out the lights to watch, because it's kind of like a laser show.
