      100%. I was there in 2001 when the whole thing kicked off and this brought back ALL of those old feelings of giddy excitement, wonder and curiosity.

    This theme is good, but I personally think tracks that lean into the more tribal/medieval vibes of Bionicle really drive home the juxtaposition the line represented in its early years.

      I’m probably gonna be speaking outta my ass here, but I can see where you’re coming from and actually kinda agree, just not completely. Obviously the general music vibe of Bionicle from 2001-2003 is gonna be tribal themed given the setting, but I personally loved it when it had those moments when electronic instruments/technoesque(?) music kicked in, like Gali vs the Tarakava and Pohatu vs the Nui-Jaga; both mixed traditional instruments with purely electronic ones and seared themselves into my memory (though I’d argue that most tracks from MNOG 1/2 had that effect). Most scenes in MNOG that used Killing Machines didn’t include the tribal chanting apart from when the Toa face down Makuta at the end of MNOG, but because of the scenes it features in (Kopaka vs the Muaka, Onua vs Lewa, the Toa vs Makuta, and even the Vahki Online Animations which were also animated by Templar), I’ve personally STRONGLY associated Killing Machines with the peak of Bionicle; cool tribal robot guys teaming up to save the day.
      Contrast with the orchestral tracks from the Bionicle movies, which aren’t bad by any measure of the imagination, but I personally never really cared for them because I never really felt that the biomechanical nature of the setting really came through (please bear in mind I also haven’t listened to the score for the movies in quite a while, so I might be misremembering things). Same thing for 2005-2009 where rock took over, though I loved Gravity Hurts; I don’t want to discount the efforts of Cryoshell in any way.

      I’ve always felt Ramin Djawadi would have made a killer Bionicle score.
      Considering he did Game of Thrones, Iron Man, and Pacific Rim, I feel like he could blend the two tones really well.

    Fifty seconds in, and the vibes were already exquisite. Sure, we've all seen the footage and heard the music before, but you edited it all together in such a way that perfectly fit the beats and conveyed the plot of the first two and a half years. Bravo.
    If ever I want to demonstrate to someone the FEEL of Bionicle in its golden age, I'll be showing them this video.

      If I’m gonna be honest, I wish I kept the clips at the original frame rate of the flash animations, but I’m still overall happy with the output
      Thank you for the kind words!

      Thank you! I definitely made a conscious effort to sync up audio and visuals when I could, but I could definitely stand to improve in some areas since I'm still a relative novice when it comes to video editing.

    fuck man i've had this song stuck in my head for twenty years, so glad to hear it again.
    Still sad that i never finished that 2nd bionicle game from the website, the one that starts in this video about 3:05 . Dang thing required you to make like, five bits of rigging or something right at the start of the game, which required a lot of farming for resources just to get out of the starting village. and to my knowledge there was very little direction saying to do that. my young self got confused and annoyed and just stopped.

      Best part is, you probably were playing on a broken version. Lego took to down and then reuploaded it, but they lost files in-between and the game was LITERALLY unbeatable.

      Yea, they were trying to emulate MMOs, which were exploding in popularity at the time with RuneScape and WoW hitting their peaks, and it really didn't work in the context of a single player flash game.

      I definitely remember having trouble getting around, I think I sequence broke at some point and then I got stuck on the other side of the Ta-Koro bridge, completely unable to zone to other areas. Frustrating, but the Fusa Path music playing somehow made it more bearable

    I thought there was 6 Tahus when I looked at the thumbnail because they all were looking red.
