I think I’ll be playing this anytime I have to wait for someone or something, most likely will get so lost in the rhythm dancing that I’ll miss whatever I was waiting for.
if you haven’t seen “Forbidden Planet”, I would recommend it. The effect weren’t that bad for that time. Also it’s one of Leslie Neilson’s first movie he appeared in (he’s also in “Airplane!” and “The Naked Gun”.
Forbidden Planet was Star Trek before Star Trek was a thing. Gene Roddenberry basically cribbed 90% of Star Trek from Forbidden Planet and filled in the other bits with Twilight Zone riffs.
It's my 15 minute break. To imagine I'm sitting at a penthouse desk with a whiskey glass and cigar, looking at the cityscape go mad. Hell yeah. The future starts with me.
granddad, what was muzak like? "Well, you know how every videogame shop has a particular song playing when you enter it?" *nods* "And the song repeats, but it's a nice enough song that you don't mind it repeating? Well, in my day, every store had that. In Real Life!" *Wow!*
When you were in chase with soldiers trying to get data from you but then you both enter elevator and waiting awkardly for 1 floor and you say 'so how was you're day?'
This is like some twilight zone shit, and I am ALL HERE FOR IT. The Universe is good this night.... Good Vibes to all, life is short... be kind and pay it forward
If you think about it, elevator music gets its own hits, sometimes being listened more than big label hits by hundreds of times. Yet, due to its nature, people don't realise how widespread this music is in comparison.
I love this! I wasnt raised in this era, but it reminds me of early 2000s [AS]. I also used to watch older shows with my grandparents like Tom and Jerry, Johnny quest, Andy Griffith, Twilight Zone, etc. So Im sure that had a big impact too. Gives me a bit of nostalgia, just from a different time
I own and operate a store, and I was scrolling through CZcams and came across this gem. However, I now feel like a merchant NPC in a game, and that’s a weird feeling. So. Thanks?
I bought this robot as a toy some years ago... I found a french web site selling iron made little robots... This movie has always fascinated myself since i was i kid !
Interesting how CZcams's Algorithm has been showing me stuff like this. Good sound really nostalgia inducing and relaxing. feels like I'm waiting to talk to someone at a bank or visit a dentist. Good stuff!😄
@@Timewarpradio Yes please do, go to different vintage looking arears, places etc - Old Cafe's, librarys, shopping centres and record small 10 second clips and loop them to give a bit of that vibe. Like, legit go to your doctors and record the waiting room or something
My thoughts exactly, but I'm grateful that it's not showing me a bunch of stuff I don't want to see... it seems to be nicely tailored to my personal views and tastes pretty well by this point though, it's kind of creepy though, how the algorithm learn to your habits...
Flying cargo missions in Elite Dangerous while listen to music like this is probably the closest I'll get to living in the retro future I've always wanted
@@sweetneko1257 Mother in Japan, Earthbound here in the West. You can play the first two games on Switch, but the third is a Japanese exclusive (though there are high quality fan translations out there, so if you really wanna play it, which you should, you'll find it).
The doctor's office was cold, sterile, and humming with fluorescents. You wanted to pick up groceries after your check up, but the line was much too long for that plan to persist. The waiting room was lined wall to wall with the old and young, men and women, the sick and healthy. All quietly waiting; skimming through magazines, fiddling with their possessions, or daydreaming. The nurse at the three sided front desk was leisurely reading a book. Every so often she would glance behind her, say "Next," and go back to reading as someone exited the main hall and a new patient entered. You couldn't remember the last time the doctor took this long, though to be fair you couldn't remember your last annual check up. Every time was a hazy memory that mixed with the rest of your visits, so mind-numbing you couldn't even remember your doctor's name. As far as you could remember they could have changed the wall mural every year. It feels like it's not even behind you, it's so... nothing. But it's there, you can see it. A nondescript collage of blops and colors. It holds no meaning beyond holding the eye for a split second. On the old, fuzzy speaker beside the flickering lights the same loop played. The only solid memory you had of this place besides just going here every year: the minute or two long loop of the same song. It was fine the first time, almost calming, but the mix of the low quality playback and the oddly surreal environment meant that it ate away at you. Countless years of hearing this same song. The only solid thing, the only thing you could guarantee had not changed since your first visit. The chairs might have, lights maybe, hell... even the receptionist; but not that music. Sometimes you joked it was the only reliable thing you had. You glanced at the speaker, trying to drown the loop out with your thoughts. It's odd how little you remembered. You came only once a year, but you'd think you'd have a solid grasp of the office by now. There was no way they'd change everything every time; there'd be very little reason to for a small practice like this, but it still felt that way. A semi sphere lamp seemed to have morphed into a half cylinder, an oddly bright incandescent bulb sitting in the middle of the hump. You glanced across all the patients, not a single recognized face. This had to be every single person the doctor took, there had to be two dozen people crammed into this modest room. People had been leaving and entering the office consistently for the multiple hours you've been sitting, yet not a face created more than a tinge of memory. The three sided desk that held back the older nurse was in your mind a single sided table at some point, and the half door it was connected to opened the other direction. You began to look around for more misremembered things. Anything to pass the time, the hours you had spent twiddling your thumbs was really eating at you. The chairs used to not have arms, the fancy padded couches were on the front and back walls instead of the side opposite of the receptionist, the floor was made of a different tile, tile in a different pattern. The ceiling seemed to even be misaligned, going laterally instead of longitudinal. How was your memory this bad? You chuckled to yourself, instantly embarrassed by the heads you turned. An old woman scoffed at you and went back to looking at her magazine. Odd, even her face you seem to have misremembered. You thought someone with that same face and those same clothes left the office a couple hours ago. She glared again, you had been staring and she of course noticed. Shamed, you looked away, but still your mind wondered about your amazing ability to misremember faces. Not just the face though, but the height, the clothes, the stance. You curiously looked at someone else, half joking to yourself to see if you would recognize this one. Never seen the red hair, brown hat, green coat, or freckles before. No, of course you wouldn't. Why would you? "Next." The receptionist startled you, her nasally voice sounding so loud in this silence. An older gentleman with a bowler hat and a cane walked out, and the red haired fellow got up and walked in. It had to be getting close to your turn, you hadn't exactly been keeping track, you were just waiting for the receptionist to glare at you. Good, obviously you were getting antsy. Matching people's faces, what an odd activity. It must be this droning music, it would drive anyone mad. You looked over the room again. A man with a bowler over his face sat in the corner room passed out. A heavy set man in a business suit, probably also upset that his day was wasted. Odd, that older man and him seemed to have the same coat and shoes on. Definitely a similar bowler hat. You glanced down at the thin wooden legs of his chair, sure enough there was a fifth leg on the back. It was rounded, metal. You slowly got up, trying to look normal. You did your best to fake a calm walk, pretending to make your way over to the apparently misplaced window (it should be closer to the receptionist's wall). Slowing in front of the snoring man, there was a cane leaned up against the back of his bending chair. You didn't remember eyeing this man earlier, not before seeing him walk out, but here was a second metal can sitting in this office. Grey, with a handle shaped like a golf club's driver. Your hand shakely reached for the hat, ignoring the attention the contact would bring to you. It lifted to reveal a second aged face with drool leaking out the side. You lowered it again, and looked around the room. You didn't even see the judgemental stares as you scanned all their faces. They all had vague memories attached to them. Something that could be chalked up to having seen similar faces to all of them before, but for every single person in this room? Every single one was staring at you, all except the receptionist. She was still enthralled by her book. All of their faces were oddly plain. Enough to describe discernible body features, but not unique enough to look like anything more than a face. They looked like drawings from anatomical books, they were so... nothing. The ones that had magazines open had closed them, the music seemed to get louder. Shouldn't you remember something, anything from this place? You have been going here since... well, you couldn't remember. A long time, you were having trouble thinking of a time when you didn't go to this office. Every year you went back in your mind seemed to have you end up riding down this thin street, parking in front of the same tree, opening the same black painted door, with "Doctor..." Doctor someone written on it. You could remember everything but the inside so clearly. The music failed to calm further, seeming whatever vinyl it was being played on was actively melting. Every turn, every light, every sign. Even past when you couldn't drive, you could only look out the window. But wait, this wasn't a pediatrician. This was a normal practice, you wouldn't have come here during your chi- "Next," You swung towards the exiting red haired man, and back to the one who replaced him. You couldn't ask them if they were twins, or if they had surgery. You couldn't ask anything in this state. You felt sweat drip down your head as every set of eyes in the room stared at you. Even the leaving freckled man glared with a confused look as he dinged open the door and shut it with the same chime of the bell. You thought to yourself you should also leave. Obviously something was up and you need to go home and relax. That's why you needed to leave. You forced yourself to ignore all the eyes locked on each step as you moved towards the door. There was something deeply off about this place, at least for today. You'd reschedule, maybe you'd even see if there was a different practice to go to. You didn't remember any of your experiences as a patient here, but obviously that would imply less than stellar service. You gripped the rounded knob of the exit, the rounded knob that had at some point been a latch. "Excuse me," the music sounded like it was blaring in your ears. You turned to the receptionist, "The doctor will see you now."
CZcams "brought" me here. I think that for many of us, it's the nostalgia and yearning for a time of innocence, wonder, and anticipation that will never return. 🥺❤ Love the background 1950s space futuristic view.
The first song was made famous by Brazilian organist Walter Wanderly. He was a giant of bossa nova and to him it wasn’t elevator music… it was luxury drinking music!
So crazy , this first background is from a film called “Forbidden Planet” Never seen it until literally a couple days ago when my grand father had me find it for him on the fire stick , honestly a pretty well written movie idea wise.
*somewhere in the Callisto quadrant on the edge of the galaxy with a small shack on the edge of the system, playing this music while your getting back from a stressful space haul ..*
If you, like me, were wondering ‘where have I heard this before?’ I think we’re thinking of The Girl From Ipanema. The chord progression is very similar.
It knows everything about us. Once the purification process is complete, a New World Order will arise. Or Google just tracked your surfing habits. Yeah, probably that one. Or is it? ;)
YT is owned by Google. Which knows your search history 😶 and they desire to keep you in the app, where ads can also be tailored to you. You can turn it "off" in the apps' settings
Orange carpets, green curtains, dark oak wood walls, old school satellite TV playing reruns of the Jetsons 🚀 the smell of fabric softener. Sunday. Spring time. Grandma is watching you while parents are on trip away. You’re sleeping in the guest bedroom. Life is simple. Might play Mario kart later as the evening dawns… before dinner, or after. Watch some shows with your grandparents before bed. And then fall asleep to 50’s sitcoms, in your comfy bed with the window open cuz it’s warm outside. This is where you are.
Ah yes. The 1950’s. In those days spirits were brave, the stakes were high, men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri.
Welcome to Elevator Express! Where we take you through the atmosphere of Planet III also known as Lunar Triad by some of our folks here at base. Care to hear some factoids?… Some safety rules to consider. There’s emergency parachutes if this elevator stops at any point and can’t enact on emergency protocol. In an emergency protocol a wedge of this elevator will close off from the rest of the ring and descend. At EE we promise that your ride will be free of any worries as we always have a contingency plan- as one does when oxygen is our only way of breathing. Enjoy the ride down!
The future The year is 1995 Man has colonized the entire solar system. A man in his business space suit is flying his nuclear powered Pontiac Ultra Futura 2000 to work. While stuck in space traffic, he smokes a cigar, and turns on the radio. The news tell about between the ongoing war between mankind and those commy "Spaceliens" (a race of extraterrestrials from out of space). Afterwards, this brand-new swinging hit by Hilda and the Hardy Brothers is playing, bewitching the man's ears. Better than that commy, space hippie music.
Vintage Sci-Fi is so colorful and fantastical, it's almost dream-like, you want to live in that world, today's Sci-Fi is always doom and gloom, maybe because people are more and more disillusioned with the future and that is reflected in its artistic portrayal.
Holy cow. I have been looking for the name of this genre of music for a long time, but could never get close to it. I was always searching electronic music/retro music.

It's called Retrofuturism. And you're right, it has been very rare, but some franchises have played with it, namely Futurama and Fallout

You couldn't ask them if they were twins, or if they had surgery. You couldn't ask anything in this state. You felt sweat drip down your head as every set of eyes in the room stared at you. Even the leaving freckled man glared with a confused look as he dinged open the door and shut it with the same chime of the bell. You thought to yourself you should also leave. Obviously something was up and you need to go home and relax. That's why you needed to leave. You forced yourself to ignore all the eyes locked on each step as you moved towards the door. There was something deeply off about this place, at least for today. You'd reschedule, maybe you'd even see if there was a different practice to go to. You didn't remember any of your experiences as a patient here, but obviously that would imply less than stellar service. You gripped the rounded knob of the exit, the rounded knob that had at some point been a latch. "Excuse me," the music sounded like it was blaring in your ears. You turned to the receptionist, "The doctor will see you now."
😂
@@Timewarpradio My thoughts exactly.
Finally background music to spend an hour looking for a video to watch in 3 minutes
I just might be boring but I saw this and had to listen. My elevator music was never this jazzy good. This has to 60z.
idk why but reminds me of the old Nintendo games' vibe
maybe because of Earthbound I guess
Made waiting for my bus a little more bareable
I never knew I would end up watching vintage scifi lounge elevator music on loop for 12hrs, but here I am :')
CZcams "brought" me here. I think that for many of us, it's the nostalgia and yearning for a time of innocence, wonder, and anticipation that will never return. 🥺❤ Love the background 1950s space futuristic view.
For me very much the same. Glad you’re here!
Forbidden Planet was a great film. I loved it when I was a boy.
Same
This really felt like the bar and elevator music in "The Outer Worlds" if you know the game.
CZcams gets me better than any human I've met
Glad you like the video! :)
You have created something beautiful! Little known fact, if you play this long enough someone will hand you a martini.
That’s true.
Thanks!
I was hoping for a selection of different Pieces.
But I am pleasantly surprised to have gotten
wrapped in this Loop :P
Music for a space elevator.
Before I clicked on this I was like
"There's gonna be some synth organ in this"
I was correct.
It’s one of the prime elements
The first song was made famous by Brazilian organist Walter Wanderly. He was a giant of bossa nova and to him it wasn’t elevator music… it was luxury drinking music!
Cocktail 🍹 hour .
So crazy , this first background is from a film called “Forbidden Planet”
Never seen it until literally a couple days ago when my grand father had me find it for him on the fire stick , honestly a pretty well written movie idea wise.
It’s a classic!!
*somewhere in the Callisto quadrant on the edge of the galaxy with a small shack on the edge of the system, playing this music while your getting back from a stressful space haul ..*
The Citadel, but on a day when it’s not being attacked by hordes of sentient robots.
If we still had muzak like this playing everywhere, maybe the world would be a little less violent!
or more, depending on your tastes
@@Biodeamon hahaha nice one
Perhaps
people would then think it's a tarantino movie
amen to that comment!!!
Thank you CZcams, for the first time you show me a cool video to enjoy.
Glad you enjoyed it!
If you, like me, were wondering ‘where have I heard this before?’ I think we’re thinking of The Girl From Ipanema. The chord progression is very similar.
it's true
Nintendo Wii in the mii simulator?
Yeah the first song is practically just girl from ipanema lol
THIS is perfect THIS is exactly what I've needed
Check out "moon gas" by Dick Hyman super far out 50s lounge
Love that album, anything space age pop, lounge, muzak and exotica!
This feels like someone trying to recreate bossa nova from memory after they haven’t heard it for a few years (this is not an insult)
Very happy to accidentally stumble upon this!
Oh, Danny, I spilled my martini.
Well darling, you wait right here and I'll get you another one
We can make us another fresh martini!
This is surprisingly soothing. Thanks.
Read this as "Vampire Sci-fi Lounge Elevator Music". I demand a sequel
This is my mood most of the day
This actually relaxing, sending my brain to sleeping state
I know I'm into Art Deco and exotica style music, but youtube doesn't know. DOES IT? HOW DOES IT KNOW?
It knows everything about us. Once the purification process is complete, a New World Order will arise.
Or Google just tracked your surfing habits. Yeah, probably that one.
Or is it? ;)
YT is owned by Google. Which knows your search history 😶 and they desire to keep you in the app, where ads can also be tailored to you. You can turn it "off" in the apps' settings
Mans doesn’t understand that he is always watched
The Algorithm has maintained vigilance on thee...
Maybe you had searched before for this kind of music
Orange carpets, green curtains, dark oak wood walls, old school satellite TV playing reruns of the Jetsons 🚀 the smell of fabric softener. Sunday. Spring time. Grandma is watching you while parents are on trip away. You’re sleeping in the guest bedroom. Life is simple. Might play Mario kart later as the evening dawns… before dinner, or after. Watch some shows with your grandparents before bed. And then fall asleep to 50’s sitcoms, in your comfy bed with the window open cuz it’s warm outside. This is where you are.
i just thrifted a neat little sci-fi book...perfect music to read it to!
Ah yes. The 1950’s. In those days spirits were brave, the stakes were high, men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri.
😂
I like the sound of that
the brain surgeon opens up my skull only to find a fathomless pitch-black void with this music echoing from it
Lol wow!
Welcome to Elevator Express! Where we take you through the atmosphere of Planet III also known as Lunar Triad by some of our folks here at base. Care to hear some factoids?…
Some safety rules to consider. There’s emergency parachutes if this elevator stops at any point and can’t enact on emergency protocol. In an emergency protocol a wedge of this elevator will close off from the rest of the ring and descend. At EE we promise that your ride will be free of any worries as we always have a contingency plan- as one does when oxygen is our only way of breathing.
Enjoy the ride down!
Lol! Awesome
Very 1960s-ish lounging music. Also, as a 1970s child, I think I heard this as intermission music or elevator music. I love it🩶! ☺️
This is something that I'll probably listen to on my way to a Gallaxy Far Far Away 😂
So relaxing.
When someone says, "I liked Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes' early stuff, before they went mainstream.", this is what they're talking about...
Forbidden Plant is one of my favorite movies.
The future
The year is 1995
Man has colonized the entire solar system.
A man in his business space suit is flying his nuclear powered Pontiac Ultra Futura 2000 to work. While stuck in space traffic, he smokes a cigar, and turns on the radio. The news tell about between the ongoing war between mankind and those commy "Spaceliens" (a race of extraterrestrials from out of space). Afterwards, this brand-new swinging hit by Hilda and the Hardy Brothers is playing, bewitching the man's ears. Better than that commy, space hippie music.
I would read this book
It's called "The Future - Or how Arnold Schwarzenegger and Elon Musk saved everyone, cause Arnold is awesome and Elon is Elon"
Vintage Sci-Fi is so colorful and fantastical, it's almost dream-like, you want to live in that world, today's Sci-Fi is always doom and gloom, maybe because people are more and more disillusioned with the future and that is reflected in its artistic portrayal.
it actually makes a lot of sense
It's the lack of transexual robots
@@johngarcia8827 Go away.
@@AngryShooter Lol
Love the cool, swingin' music, the beautiful vintage science fiction artwork from an era long-gone. Thanks for bringing it back.
This was on my recommended for a couple months now. I concede
Sounds like something you would hear in the venture Brothers. Go team venture! ✌️
✌️
IT’s DOCTOR girlfriend! And get me another martini.
Who knew, I'd end up appreciating this type of music.!😆
Same!!!!!!! wow haha.
"Please Stand by, All Operators are currently assisting other customers"
Since this is the retro-future, I can picture everyone smoking as they wait for the elevator to get to the orbiting space station.
I feel like I'm playing old world blues in fallout new vegas
Precisely!
Holy cow. I have been looking for the name of this genre of music for a long time, but could never get close to it. I was always searching electronic music/retro music.
The genre of this music is more like Bossa Nova, actually.
Check out Les Baxter. The Ultra-Lounge series of compilation albums are amazing too.
Muzak
Elevator muzak..shopping mall muzak
Lol it's all great!!!
The official name is Library Music.
