And today I'm here with Professor Dr Martin Polyakov, C B s B A m.

It was exactly what was used to, you know, being a musician, I totally have a horrendous amount of explosions going on all over the place.

It didn't sound that different to what I was used to being a dubstep producer, but it certainly looked a bit different.

And there were a lot more, Ah, signs saying, Don't touch and you might die and things like that, which was a lot of fun.

It was very warm, very warm and colorful.

And I think I singed some of this the whole time.

I was just constantly thinking this sound is awesome.

Every now and again, I just hear a sound was just incredible and s so many of these chemistry experiments make these tonal sounds which are so interesting for this kind of music, and they can be laid up very, very effectively to make something that's really interesting to listen to.

One of my favorite moments was when we did the barking dog experiment with the really large tube And it was it.

I didn't know what loud Waas Yes, it was the first of all had to took all 50 different files from all the things we recorded onto the computer.

Listen through the mall named them all to the naming random hissing noise organized them into percussion tonal stuff effects So kind of like bushy sounds and things like that.

Just random noises that didn't really seem to fit anywhere.

Hammer thing Centrifuge vacuum drain buns and barking dog firework e pops hierarchy pops.

From the start on dhe, I thought showing one of these experiments being compiled and then exploding would be a great initial start to and one of the coolest ones where the ice was set on fire, which was not something I thought physically possible before.

Eso Yes, it made a really satisfying boom sound right at the start.

Then the crackles started to sound a bit rhythmic when I looked them, and I really quite liked it.

Sound a bit like a high hat on the drum kit for this one.

There was a lot more percussion than there were tonal sounds, so I had to be quite careful, and I figured, rather than trying to aim for something that was hugely melodic, I just focused on what I had and make it more about the rhythms and the percussion.

So I started by just building up four separate beats throughout the song.

There's the 1st 1 which I did with the The Fire is the kick drum saying that one.

And then I found this incredible sound when the the bung in this big tube was popped off by the gas inside it, which sounded like if you're an electronic music head, there's something called an 8 to 8 kick drum, which is a very old synthesizer, and it sounded so much like that, like an authentic synthesized kick drum.

It came across quite like this, that sound that even has that at the top, just like a high hat.

I quickly trucked in a bit of a chemical job, which I thought that's just tapping some chemicals on the side there and dropped in finally, with big drop ends that was made by two separate devices popping Can't remember.

Quite the guy should have probably done more remembering of what the science was, but they had to do it slightly different tonal qualities.

One came across as a kick drum with a bit of a basic sound, and the other one was more of a snare.

Theo, this'll is 100% of the sounds I recorded, which I'm really, really pleased with.

I didn't know whether I'd have to start layering it up, but everything was so Basie on Dhe interesting that it really, really worked.

I wanted to have a big kind of culmination at the end where it started to bring in a ll The different elements that we've got throughout the song so kind of builds goes a bit crazy with the rhythms and then thing crash out to one of the more colorful experiments.

Again, I was trying to think about the visuals as well, because I thought it would be a nice, nice one.

Thio really show off what could be done with these experiments.

I will create the song and then I'll passo, Peter Adam, who will then do the visual aspect of it.

We'll have a discussion and figure out what we want to do, and then he'll do it and I'll get back to another song.

I generally leave Dave to do his thing and just get on with it.

And and yeah, for this project, we've, we've actually we've got a hard drive, which both of the computer share.

So we were able to just dump stuff on the hard drive on one computer than take it off on the other computer so that we can solve both.

Send each other edits and things on the fly.

He well, he sent me over this song, so I've got the four song together.

But he also sent me each individual stem.

So each sound it just it picks a sound for the whole song he renders out the song with just that sound playing this offer.

This is the video tracks that I've got into.

The minute this is, say, this is one which is filling the tube.

As you can see, there's nothing that the start of something there, but then at the end, we can hear the It's just that sound.

There's nothing else playing on this lady here.

We've got the fire working sound, which is this this effect over here on.

Then, when you see this sound happen on the audio channel, you know that appear the corresponding video channel has to put the clip in the right place.

So when you play together, hopefully slow fun.

But it's interesting because this will be working with loads of different streams of video at the same time, and you have to put it all together and make it coherent.

I'm not making promises, and if it's not good, I'm not gonna upload it.

But if it's not good, I'm also not going up like this so it doesn't matter.

It will still be interested to see what people think of you.

 I hope I hope that it will give people new view of chemistry.
