I have to disagree again... I don't think a III chord is anywhere in the entire song. The build up is in the parallel major.
Right, the key III is the parallel major. I'm shifting the base of the notation for this passage. When I say III ends the build up, I mean III in the parallel major key, i.e. V(7) in the original key.

III is the relative major. I is the parallel major. As I said, I believe there is no III anywhere in the song.
So, to clarify, I'm not claiming there is a III in the original key, I'm referring to the III chord of the relative major key.

#83This is really awesome. They cut the entire song into one-beat segments of sound and video, and then categorized each beat by similarity to other beats in the song, and then after each beat there's a random chance that, instead of playing the next beat, the playback will transition to a different but similar-sounding beat from elsewhere in the song. More info at the author's blogpost: http://musicmachinery.com/2012/1…
Nice! If you want to explore the structure, you can control-click on a beat and it will only play the related beats. From what I can tell, the color indicates the number of beats in the jump set. Black: 1, Blue: 2, and then more the redder it gets. I can't figure out how to get out of that mode, though, other than to stop and restart it.

que sera sera. c'est la vie. There are lots of cultural memes in America that aren't in English. You can restrict to "recent pop culture", but even in straight music, 99 luftballoons was big 25 years ago. I'm sure there are many other examples.
Macarena, Las Ketchup and Numa Numa are three other recent ones (some contain English elements but the main catchy parts are in other languages).

#87I have a habit of listening to a single song over and over again. I am able to do so for about 3 hours. Using such randomizer technology, this time will be dramatically prolonged...

#89You would have to improve the program a little bit, but this concept being realized with a vast music library?
Sounds quite interesting...
Re: Infinite Gangnam Style
#90Clever. I wonder if the illusion is broken if you actually speak Korean. I would definitely notice if someone chopped and reassembled random words in English.
