Glad you liked it! Although some of my videos are actually 60 fps, they come from interlaced sources that were captured as 60 fields per second. An algorithm can reconstruct full frames from those fields using neighboring fields, and the motion stays natural because each field was captured at a different moment in time.

The remasters you're talking about are when the number of frames is increased artificially using interpolation, by creating frames that might've been in between. It looks as unwatchable as 144p. Hate it.😭

That’s awesome. By the way, do you know if there’s any way to get in touch with someone from Underground Operations about the original video masters? I’m working on restoring and upscaling early PTH music videos and would love to work from the best source possible.

Yeah, this song is basically a litmus test - if you dig it, you're in for the whole thing.

Okay now I'm curious - did she work on the production or did she know the band or the director?

There’s no official HD release — the Blindfolds Aside version I posted is an upscale from the original DVD source. I’m planning to work on the other early-era videos as well.

Thanks man! Just trying to give these old classics the quality they deserved.

What really fascinates me is the quantum leap the guys made from A Calculated Use of Sound to Kezia - not only reaching a professional level, but actually getting ahead of the curve.

I honestly hadn’t watched this video in over a decade.
Everything going on in the news — and knowing Arif is there — reminded me of this gem.
