Audio Visualization! in Blender 2.69 (Overwerk - Rise)
Enjoy the video, all information is in the description!
This is an audio visualization I did in blender 2.69. I rendered it in cycles, in 480p and at 200 samples. I would have done more. because I'm not really happy with the quality but just this took way too long to render (about 150 hours, or 6 and a half days straight). This is purely due to the fact that I don't have a great computer so I'm rendering it with my 6 core AMD processor.
This is the tutorial which taught me how to do the python scripting:

Just a heads up, depending on the version of blender you're using or what system you're on, you may need to change the line that says:
bpy.ops.graph.sound_bake(filepath='C:\filepath′, low=l, high=h)
to:
bpy.ops.graph.sound_bake(filepath=r'C:\filepath′, low=l, high=h)
The material (the weird emitting glass shader) I used was inspired by this tutorial:

The music is called "Rise" by Overwerk. Here's his website:
