October 2020' I had just taken 3 bong rips per my roommates request. I was fucking ZOOTED and this track hit me perfectly. Great film, Imo, even better sountrack
I think I was in 7th or 8th grade. Animatrix had just come out and a friend and I fell asleep watching it. This song was playing in the title/menu screen. I don't remember anything other than hearing it in my dream for a solid 30 mins or so.
Ever since I purchased the Animatrix soundtrack on compact disc back in 2003, this track has been on every MP3, ipod and now iPhone I have ever owned. Excellent track.
You know what that phrase makes a lot of sense because as human beings we are fearful of doing certain things out of fear of what the next person will think but with a mask on or a disguise we're free to do what we want and act how we want without worrying about what somebody else thinks of our actions it's crazy because it's almost like in the disguise you unlock your true self without one you restrict yourself worrying about people's perception of you you even look at when a person is drunk they may be intoxicated but what it's doing is unlocking a person's true way of thinking whereas when we're sober we know how to hold certain things back we know how to hold our tongue but when you're drunk you're unfiltered nothing is restricting you so you're free to say what you want
@@weedie5582 Agreed. The same thing happens when you wear a balaclava. You simply become what you truly are and not what society tried to make out of you.
This song was in the movie 'STAY.' I've probably watched that movie 50 times. It still captures me; every time. It is like one of those David Lynch movies that are almost impossible to figure out. It is left completely to interpretation. That is what keeps me coming back. And, yes, the soundtrack is amazing. The score captures the mood of the film so brilliantly, and those tracks submitted by artists are very well chosen.
Great song that incorporate great episode. Insane hand-drawn animation, especially that skate-chase scene. Something CG animation can't do, and maybe never will. So good. It's art.

You must not have had many or if any bad dreams. A nightmare is a hell I would never describe as "not that bad". I don't like the darkness encircled no end and no beginning. There is no order or peace and my spirit feels like a hunted animal. A snow globe if you will, a bubble I am clammering to escape. A reality my mind inevitably will and does "drop" me off at its front door or right in its belly.

Very thought provoking song. As is everything involved with the Matrix series in general. But none saddens me more than the Animatrix episode "Matriculated" for some reason.
Fat kungfu Oh, it would probably be after the sentinel attack. When all were laying dead and he tried to plug the woman back in. Having it fail resulting in him sitting there alone. Now knowing what he knows. Something about it depresses me.
I never thought about it from that angle. I thought when the woman and sentinel were in that last matrix scene she was being brought in to the sentinels preferred type instead of that warm and bright side of hers. The scream and shiver I thought were in response to being brought in to the dark, maybe cold other side. But that final scene with the sentinel contemplating had never clicked, so thanks for that!

This film was more art than movie. A moving tapestry of interpretation into a thought-provoking question. At the turn of the century, technology and reality entered a new phase, where the line between science fiction and fact began to irrevocably blur. What if this world really is an elaborate dream? A cleverly constructed illusion designed to keep us all blind to the truth? This question persists even today. Yet for those of us that grew up in the era when technology had yet to consume all culture, this movie was a masterpiece. "Are you living in the real world?"
ahhh. one of my all time favorite songs.. the best song on PO's debut album. this song is going to be played on a loop at my funeral. thanks for posting this gem..
now please go read Plato's cave allegory to understand where this story of matrix and virtual worlds is copied from... it will blow your mind thinking that it was written 2500 years ago.. philosophy!

The Animatrix + Alan Moores snakes and ladders + John Coulthart graphic designs + Nine Inch Nails + Berserk golden arc + The Fountain OST + Ambient music (like Solar Fields) + Gas' song "microscopic" + Aphex Twin + Autechre + Einsteurzende Neubauten + during the summer before art college = most fascinating time of my life. Felt like there was a constant sunshine in my life. I'd leave behind the bullies that plagued me and was going into a new chapter of my life that suited me as a person. This song is one of those things that really make it seem as if you're made of light and experiencing things in their media (like tv/laptop light) that had a greater effect on you because they were ideas/ light themselves.
I used to listen to this on my very first mixed CD on my walkman, (gosh that makes me feel old by saying that) but it helps me a lot by thinking about life while having a ride on a bus home/school

This anthology has to be the point where I realize anime, or animation entirely, can also appeal to a mature audience, when my dad told 9 year old me that there was an anime for the matrix I was excited, then I saw the 2nd Renaissance part 1 and 2, was very creeped out by the visceral imagery and I believe I couldn't sleep after watching that tbh lol, watching it now I can it stands out from the trilogy and other medias, adding lore to its world and connecting the movies and the games, and ofc its different animation styles, it was good watch, a kid's story animation has to be my favorite, hense why I'm here listening to this music, still get creeped out with the Renaissance parts 1 and 2 lol

I don't mind bad dreams no matter how bad they get because waking up to reality is so much worse.
Nightmares give great imagery. A welcome respite from the drudgery of mundane reality.
You must not have had many or if any bad dreams. A nightmare is a hell I would never describe as "not that bad". I don't like the darkness encircled no end and no beginning. There is no order or peace and my spirit feels like a hunted animal. A snow globe if you will, a bubble I am clammering to escape. A reality my mind inevitably will and does "drop" me off at its front door or right in its belly.
You seem to understand these bad dreams very well....
The things we don't understand keeps us in ignorant bliss.

Very thought provoking song. As is everything involved with the Matrix series in general. But none saddens me more than the Animatrix episode "Matriculated" for some reason.

"Matriculated" is my favorite. It's one of the best things in the entire Matrix series.
Is it possible that they broke him from his programming that he is self aware? Able to think freely as a human mind?
