Love the new music, Andrew!
Where’s the mp3
Thanks! Just export to .mp3 :)
Still working on getting a Rocketboom album together.
A lot of music videos :)
Why not make a Casual Fridays video collection?

What would be really interesting would be to back-mount the camera on the FRONT rider, and get a shot of someone biking NYC from in front of them..
Except for the earmuffs and the lady-like way with which she got on the bike at the beginning; how do we know that the rest of the ride was REALLY Joanne?!
Great track. With that pace though she should consider entering in the Beijing Olympics! What? It was ffwd? Oh. Cool clip nonetheless.
Have a great weekend. Rock on!
Joanne on speed.
cool - very jealous!
Eh.
The high-speed camera gimmick didn’t hold my attention. Especially since half the footage was so dark.
You kinda sucked the mood, atmosphere and intoxicating danger of riding a bike in NY right out of this. You could have done this in Des Moines and it would have felt the same. Just a lot of images coming at us way too fast.
My suggestion: Post a couple clips from this ride at normal speed, maybe the park and maybe if Joanne got a mite close to a truck here or there. Use ambient sound. Give us a taste of what it was really like.
I\’m going to tag on here. I couldn\’t get the words for my thoughts down right before. You put it so eloquently I had to chime back in. Ditto!
That was…hey, look at tha…oh, that was coo…wait, there\’s…did you see th…look out…wait I\’m not…whoa!
Casual Friday, don\’t cha just wuv it!
Time to bust out the old disambiguationator!
later people
Love the music. Little dark in spots.
Would\’ve been Fun to do a 2-pane split with 1 shooting rider & background + 1 shooting where rider is going.
~Tv show: 24.
And in other news Rocketboom made another pointless artsy video with no information at all.
Thank goodness for CASUAL Friday.
It reminds me one of my brother\’s video
Awesome! I just created a similar film through San Francisco: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWUq_rpuwA4
I really liked this one
Yes it it hard to know if that was really Joanne but that is not important.
I get that due to time constraints it was impossible to use normal pace and thusly also ambiance sound had to go.
Here\’s the film instead of just the link:
Uh-oh! Feel Good, inc.!

There\’s your answer…

Love the new music, Andrew!
Where\’s the mp3
–End quote–
Hmm, sounds like GarageBand.
I can do it, but I can\’t understand some of the loops.
I got some, but I don\’t know the others.
Can you give us the loops?
So far I\’ve got:
Long Crash Cymbal 06
Natural Drum Kit 10
I wanna make one for me Mac for me!!! :)))
–GarageBand, additional GarageBand loops and Jingles, preloaded on iMac–
>Suspense Accents 01
Hey Music Man, great that you picked up on some of the instruments. Here is the actual Garage Band file to play around with, lets us know what you come up with:

Would also be awesome if anyone is into mixing up some of the Rocketboom adopted theme music from the Science Songs Album:

Well shoot, I\’ll give it a shot or two.
Here is lame attempt number one…
More whack attempts are sure to follow, sadly.
Uh, yep, welcome to whackyville.
Which Jam Pack did you use?
(no wonder there\’s missing instruments/loops!)
I\’d wish to see Joanne bike ride through Tokyo…
http://rocketboom.com/extra/music/rocketboom_bike_ride.zip
can i find the rute in a map?
Watch it in HD. The vid\’s much more smoother and better. mfps, yea!

I\\\’d like to see Joanne bike ride through Tokyo…

looks like a nice day for it :)
I\’d like to see a gps or google maps track of the ride…
Love the Music Drew! I listened to this about four times in a row.
groupie
Casual Fridays are so good as this…
…but music like this is so (____) like this…

Those are some very lucky handlebars, to be held like that, for such a length of time…
Hey, snap out of it Mike! Ooops, sorry. What I meant was, that\’s a very nice bicycle.
I\’m a huge biking enthusiast; I try to ride whenever possible. So watching this RocketBoom show was delectably delightful indeed. That was quite a ride, too, as it looked like it included {by quick glimpses :) } battery park city(?), the west side along the Hudson, the 20\’s and 30\’s up into mid-town, past the Eiffel Tower, then up onto Central Park, and beyond. That\’s a whole lot of pedaling! What an excellent chronicle of Manhattan during autumn! (Sorry, that Paris landmark is only in my imagination).
The music was great, again as usual, also. I downloaded the GarageBand link (from Drew, above) but it would not open for me. I suspect, though, that it is because I have never upgraded from GarageBand v1.1.0; and Drew\’s file was most likely made on a more current version.
Ride in style…
best.rocketboom.ever.
I wish Joanne would go bike riding in Japan
it would be nice to see a bike ride through Tokyo
