Visualiser - Blow It Hard Records

I used audio reactive generative code that fits this laid back, funky, warm track combined with retro footage of 70's dancers. The track has a great sound and the way the song develops over the 10 minutes is sweet n' smooth. This was represented in the flowing video, no cuts, just morphing shapes.

Because of the steady bassline, I imagined this like a conveyor belt going right to left. Patterns and shapes go past smoothly in time. The track morphs into different sounds, I showed this development through a slow colour palette transition. Starting the song warm and hot, to deep and purple, bringing in greens and circling back round again to be hot and steamy. A 70's psychedelic palette.

On our conveyor belt background of shapes, patterns and colours, I'd like to use found footage of retro dancers (in my head mostly male because the voice is male, but open to suggestions). For some of these I filled in the bodies using the alpha channel with a different pattern.
