this kind of stuff almost cant be too long imho, but progressively takes one further and further, hypnotizing.
Yeah, I was actually thinking "thank god it's so long". One of my favorites from the compo!

Finally a well-paced prod that doesn't run out of ideas. It's niche, but it's the good kind of niche.
Well the music is just amazing and the visual components perfectly mesh together while never overstaying their welcome. The tempo of it all delivers and packs a strong punch.
captivating
my brain hurts in a good way
We need MORE of this kind. PLEASE, make it so :D
Good tunes, excellent visuals, fscking loved the "guy" and lights around him.

top stuff!
great visuals and proper techno :)
nice
excellent
Last half is the best. Sounds like a million.
Repetitive visuals, blinking and music, surely it didn't need to be that long. Still, it's interspersed with sufficient greatness for a thumb. Also, dat scrolltext.
excellent! simply E-X-C-E-L-L-E-N-T!!! (music especially)
Overall this demo and the melancholy demo were this year's highlights squeezed into the same compo. Oh darn the direction in this! Maybe two more hours with the synching could've made this tiny bit better but oh well. :D
Very good!
Cool stuff. But it hurts a bit too see the Lee Perry Smith model without decent shading. Also, it's CC BY-NC, which requires attribution, which I couldn't find anywhere.
kusma: I suppose that was kinda the whole joke (the shading should be decent but it's not realistically parameterized). I didn't pick the model and wasn't aware of the license, but we'll remedy that. Thanks for letting us know.
Noby: depends on your definition of "decent" i guess. In this case, I found the lack of occlusion (seemingly for all components) around the nostrils very disturbing. And not in a good way, in a "yikes, this looks like cheap CG"-way. Don't get me wrong, it's a minor point, but I'm pretty picky when it comes to these things ;-)
A bit too long but great nevertheless.
Looks like a 90s DJ background (in a good way), must have been a lot of work. Never gonna watch it again.
Long? This? ADHD much? Well executed, consistent visually, pleasing musically, the perfect length for the content. Not mindblowing but an all-around solid performance.
the music is ultra meh, but decent visuals kinda saved it. Weak thumb from me

It does run out. But when it happens, it's so deep in thumbs-up territory, that I don't care that much. :)
Great music. Great visuals. Great length. Clearly not to everyone's tastes.
What more can you ask for? :)

banger soundtrack and great visuals, gets a bit repetitive at the end, i'd compress it to 80% of the length ;)
EFX
IMHO, the best all around demo this year. It starts to hit these points where it escapes the scene and ends up as "artform". Reminds me of great episodes of Amp back in the day.
Perfect example of a piggie. Runs for too long and has uncanny valley al over it with that green model. If it wasn't for the post and the amount of work this would have been a thumb down bu there is some cool stuff that saves it.
It could go on for a few more minutes.
extremely nice!
started promising, then got sloppy on syncs, then recovered, then got sloppy again, then sort of ended.
maybe needs a few more plays to understand / recognize some of the syncs better. O_o
it definitely had some good parts though.

Reptile's comment about 90's visuals is actually pretty spot on, even if I would not subscribe to the latter sentence. Will also have to agree with the majority about the length, but it's still an extremely stylish demo.
too long, i like most of the visuals, thumb goes mostly for the music though
Superb atmosphere! 90s technovideo vibes. MTV partyzone or the German Viva channel.
Jesus on E's 2017 :)
One of the best things I've seen in ages. Grooves in totally right way.
Massive!
Stylish and perfectly executed!
Ok
Whow! This is fabulous!! What I like the most is that it (IMHO) looks and sounds so non-demoish! Very well done!!! Thanks!
according to the track and the visualz its a clubtro, which also explains the length.
I was entertained although I think it works better in a club (or the compo) than at home

good show.
Oh yeah.
In my book this is pretty close to being the perfect techno demo. Awesome show, thanks!
what loaderror said.
Now, that's how we roll!
Years back this could have been a VIVA 2 musicvideo in germany ;-) Aesthetically very nice and polished. The face model gives it some kind of personality. The soundtrack is quite distinct what I like. It doesn't sound like the normal contemporary demo: And that's good.
even better at home, somehow the mix felt flat on the party
kusma: by the way I talked with sm about the model and he said where he sourced it from had it licensed under public domain. If I had to venture a guess though I'd put money on you being correct and the site mistaken.
Also about the rasterized lighting.. yeah it has some funky screen space shadows that can get a bit ugly, but other than that the ggx shading should be in order (not that it's anything special at all). I of course understand where you're coming from, I'm very picky about these things too :)

I will never not thumb up techno demos. Also this is a rather good example :)
Overley of bad effects = bad demo.
2001 called... it said thanks for keeping its style alive and well ;)
Hell yeah, good stuff.
Nice
I usually don't like that style of music, but the visual ideas, pace and sync were interesting enough to leave me interested and hooked until the end. I love how it surprised me with new things even in the last quarter of the demo (even though I'm an idiot an hadn't realized during my first watch that one of the effects is in fact a scroller - I had switched my vision to abstract mode too much by that time :p).
The rendering style of the human model didn't quite fit in though, at least IMHO. But apart from that this is awesome! Hopefully I'll get to see this on some bigscreen one day.
Now I'll have to watch it again to try to get an idea how one syncs something like this, i.e. how the balance between manual and automatic syncing might be.

Stays fresh throughout, coordinated with the music very well, and good effects.
Dope!!!!
So so.
Nice nice!
Oh yeah, Should Have Won. ;)
Epoch as usual, I love you <3
Slammin' X-Mix would be proud
Tekno. Design. Epoch.
rocks!
love
Boring For First Time
Great For Second Time

Cool but a bit long in parts
i want to further point out how bad this demos is. too bad i cant thumb it down twice.
Epoch is my fav contemporary group from Finland, so not much of complains :) some compositions could be slightly more coherent... Feels a bit like two VJs collaborating on a techno party. Great sequel to Emix! For some party, all great techno demos needs to be mixed into one set...
Great to hear Ronny's music again and each track with different mood.

No mola
keep 'em coming!
strange but consistent
this one (as well as complete epoch production) deserves more than a single thumb. glad to have you around, hoping to see more!
epoch ftw! ♾ 📌

Love the soundtrack, love the layering and the hypnotic style. Epoch never disappoint.
