It would not work, Felix colgrave is a really great artist but he does not take shortcuts when doing his art, Therefor his work would take too long and it would not please the business.
This shows how peaceful it is when, instead of building against nature, we build with it and don't try to overcome it. This artwork is truly beautiful.
I think it's an abstract representation of the turn of the century in american capitalism. Like what life was like transitioning from late 1800s to early 1900s.
I don't get any message from it, I just like to feel the sensations of the syncronization, colours and sound. You know? Look at the details and getting surprised every rewatch... I guess art means more then what our morals and rational thinking can tell
@@jadiellima8922 I agree...but that doesn't mean you can't make logic out of something that might not have any...it's fun to interpret and appreciate art in it of itself, like you did
last night when I slept, I saw and heard this in my dreams.... it was the most pleasant sleep I've had in a while. Felix, I love your dark stuff, but lighter things like this really seem to make a perfect balance in your portfolio. ❤
I just graduated nursing school, and my grandfather passed two or three months ago. From that week onward the most comforting thing I have ever felt is this video. I have shared it with numerous friends and patients that have experienced life and loss. Truly a wonderful creation. My utmost compliments to the creator.
You have progress nicely from lovable little skits featuring horror psychedelic dramas to adorable and comforting animations that are beyond our thanks. What changed Felix?!
This video makes me feel really hopeful for some reason. It reminds me that, no matter what life throws at us, we can always grow, branch out, make more friends, etc. It gives me the strength to persevere through the doldrums and hardships of life as they come.
A nice soothing little video. Lovely animation and I really love the art style and the way the creatures moved. Especaly that stick insect. I am going to rewatch double king now :P
I remember watching this about 5 years ago, back when I was still 15... now I'm in my 20s and this was just so nostalgic it made me cry... I really wish I could go back to 15 year old me and just tell him everything would be okay, you made it to where you wanted to be, you're successful, and you are loved...
@@rin_etoware_2989 Ladybugs take reduced fall damage due to their size and they have a chance to recover with their wings, so if they were good at the game they probably survived.
@@dawson8239 are lady bugs even big enough to take fall damage? I remember if you try to swat any low weight class players out of the air, you won't due much damage due to how the game's inertia mechanics work.
1:35 and 1:43 omfg I love it. I love everything about it. The way it was previously established with the raindrops so we wouldn’t miss it, the way it tied in to the story, the creativity with the piano layout, just an absolutely gorgeous shot.
Man, I always get excited when I see you with something new. Great animation always takes SO long to make, but it's always worth the wait, especially when it's Felix.
Now that is what you listen at the middle of the night when everything is going horrible and you just want to die to put your life back together and to feel happy and calm af.
The music though man! The melody is rich and complete. Smooth bass line. The quarter note chords that play throughout are just perfect. The most chill piece i have listened to in a minute. Mad respect
No matter what my mood is, I always go back to watch your beautiful animations accompanied with not less beautiful music, thank you so much for those masterpieces
This animation look a loot more clean than DOUBLE KING, i mean, by the line of animated object/character. That give an happy visual to the scene, DOUBLE KING was totaly different (low colors and «unclean» lines). Interesting to see how small details can change a world. Perfect animation and realy realy enjoyable 👌👌👌
The best part ita because its true, bamboo florests are cared by the animals and the bamboos make a perfect house for those insects and animals, they live into a perfect ying yang, they care of themselfs and they grow together
The builder scorpion was absolutely adorable. He once was in a street gang with the dung beetle brothers, but turned his life around after getting his pincers glued shut while running from the cops in a construction zone, only for the old man to vouch for him, as he needs good climbers to build housing in the ever expanding city of the bamboo undergrowth.
Tomorrow We Live I actually thought some lumberjack will pop up and chop the bamboo down causing the demise of an entire ecosystem when the camera was panning down to the roots.
Tomorrow We Live I think the plot twist was when he grows hands, which is kinda symbolic when you think about it, imagine all the shit mother nature would do to us if she had hands, more than the belt that's for sure
Loving the new art style! It is terrible that you put so much work into animation but don’t get nearly as much as big time youtubers who complain that sitting in front of a camera is so hard.
Knight Bowman Yeah, sadly TH-cam’s algorithm makes it really hard for animators to make TH-cam into a reliable source of income. This has been a problem for waaaaay too long, its infuriating that they haven’t fixed this.
I'd just like to say that whenever my one year old brother is sad and I can't figure out how to cheer him up I always play him this. He gets happy watching this and I get happy seeing him smile. Thank you Felix.
This video has helped with chilling out the tantrums of my 2 kids. (Who are 5yrs apart) It consistantly has an instant calming effect. They dont even have to see the video. Its fucking magical.
Stickman 101 Hehehahaha!! Didnt understand first but then I suddenly got a memeory in My head that ive seen a video on youtube showing Two people having a pilow war
I had a moment where my body just completely relaxed. This is sooooo freaking soothing. The music, the happy bugs, the feeling of being content… haven’t felt that soothed in a while.
I think this animation reflects on Felix himself. The start where the farmer character is in a room and waters the bamboo seed/bulb symbolises Felix creating his first animations/works. The bamboo grows through the ground, being uploaded to the internet. They insects who go to visit the bamboo are people who have come to view Felix's creation. The insects who "live" in the bamboo are the fans who enjoyed Felix's work and thus stayed while the other insects who fell were not so much fans of his work (but nonetheless they still viewed it). From the popularity of the first bamboo shoot more insects (viewers) came to view Felix's work. When the bamboo sneezes new seeds this is essentially Felix coming up with more ideas which then grow into new bamboo shoots (new creations). We see a ladybird (a fan from the original bamboo shoot) leap onto a new one essentially viewing Felix's new works. The hands at the end symbolise Felix growing as a creator. Tl;dr: the video symbolises Felix's journey and growth as a creator
This is so cute and pure for being a Felix Colgrave animation...

I think I'm seeing a crown being pictured in my mind on that snail
Holy fvck
Its not the same eyes of Double King their eyes here like an pac-man
The drawings make me comfortable, stories are interesting. And above all, the characters are so cute!

I agree wholeheartedly!
Gave me the feeling of reading a children's book

Gave me feeling of watching adventure time. You know, with the animation and music genre.

And the can flip
They are their master of flips
Flip boyes
My favourite if not the stick insect its this guy 1:17 i think he's a leafhopper.
When the piano keys are represented by things falling on the leaves. So imaginative and satisfying!
Especially more than hundeed ladybugs falling to death lmao
I was starting to miss your videos
BOT SWAT me too
BOT SWAT if you think about it, he does like, one thing a year, animation takes a lot of time.
To be perfectly honest, i think you are the best animator of this time.
sibrilliant yeh

for me it's between him and harry partridge, probs give it to felix tho :/

"If you give nature what it needs,nature will give to you what you need" and "both can live together" that's what i got from this video

And combination ladybugs here 1:35 and 1:42 XD cute!!

YES! FINALLY THE CUTE THINGS DIDN'T DIE! HALLELUJAH!
I know. after watching double king 100 times you'd expect him to only be able to make cute things die.
@Jess Hambone
I dont think so 😊 Those bugs are way too light to die from falling.
Amen

The way you add ornate patterns and decorations to surfaces is truly beautiful. I'm envious as an amateur artist.
Don't be envious you don't know how much time and efforts he put into his creations. People are not only gifted they are hard workers
Hey, if you keep practicing you can get there eventually!
I literally watched double king two hours ago, for the first time in months, wondering where you went. and here you are.
I feel so bad for the 124 lady bugs who fell to their death during the making of this video
do ladybugs die from fall damage?

Well they put nails in the animals that look like plants above the surface. Think about it ;)

I like both.
The innocence of flyin' bamboo and the deep meaning of double king.

WOW this was actually nice and not horrifying.
Who else was on the edge of their seat the whole time, waiting for something horrible to happen?
i did kinda feel like it could turn around if there was too much of them then again its better this positive way.
