Nigel Stanford is known not only for his great music, but also for creating music videos that show the coolest things science and robotics can achieve.

The video for “One Hundred Hunters”, off his latest album Automatica (available now), tells the story of researchers coming across a strange orb and trying to figure out what its deal is. Using the NASA footage as a backdrop, the video stars Stanford himself as an astronaut following the alien creation, at risk to his own life — an experience enhanced by the gorgeous soundtrack.
Stanford’s previous work has gained fame for videos that have created music through scientific experiments, like 2014’s viral hit “that used robotics to bring a song to life.
