Tokyo’s Takcom (Takafumi Tsuchiya) created the latest video for the experimental jazz quintet SJQ. The relationship between the imagery and the music is pretty spot on.

Comments from Siggi Eggertsson:
“This is a video that is made from over 400 images that I created from 2003-2009. Bits and pieces from commercial, rejected and personal projects. I had been collecting all those images to use in a completely different project, but then discovered that they could look great in animation too. After painful days in After Effects, fighting with all those 400 layers (and nearly killing my computer), the video was complete.”
