The animated House musical.

AnimationScience FictionMusicAdventure

Four talented alien musicians are kidnapped by a record producer who disguises them as humans. Shep, a space pilot in love with bass player Stella, follows them to Earth. Reprogrammed to forget their real identities and renamed The Crescendolls, the group quickly becomes a huge success playing soulless corporate pop. At a concert, Shep manages to free all the musicians except Stella, and the band sets out to rediscover who they really are -- and to rescue Stella.

VIBE

A dazzling, kinetic journey through space and sound. This visual album is pure, unadulterated pop-art escapism, blending Daft Punk's infectious beats with stunning anime visuals for an unforgettable, feel-good ride.
