This turned out far better than I expected 
Tools used:
Apophysis 2.08 3D hack + apophymator script. [link]
FL Studio 8 (soundtrack composition)
Native Instruments DJ Traktor Studio (to get the 'stopping record' effect)
Soundforge6 (more processing of the soundtrack - reversing, etc)
VirtualDub (assembling the clips and creating the final movie file)
1 rusty, greasy, grimy, dusty, pre-historic 2.8GHz Celeron D cpu
Beer + smokes
Some stats:
~60hrs to render
15 keyframes w/ 300 frame interval
4120 frames rendered in apo (originally meant to be 4200 but got cut prematurely somehow)
quality @300
Thanks for looking. Enjoy the show
EDIT
------
h.264 re-encode now available here: [link] (~108MB)
(I highly recommend watching this with VLC Media Player with motion blur turned on
)

Reverse Mode. 
@05:46There are different version, and as far as I know, you have to pay for it.
XviD is free, but good quality.
Doesn't dA support XviD?
FAQ #832: What file formats are accepted for film?
The FAQ said it supports h264

Holy Cow, i just installed DivX so that i could watch it in full screen Hi-Quality and i must say it was well worth it... Amazing work 
Thanks. Unfortunately even DivX HiQ is nowhere near what I see on my PC. I am thinking of recompressing this to MP4 (apple ipod thingy) to get better quality but will have to host off of dA. hrrrmmmmm :/
Yes i can believe that, even some of my normal uploads look so different here after the upload, so dull and not as vibrant as they are on my PC.
