Analysis and Explanation
Hyper Music was played mildly often throughout the Showbiz era in the form of a bluesy riff. It is believed this riff, which was played sometimes towards the end of concerts, provided the basis for this song. It was performed for the first time in October 2000 and played rather often from that point on until the end of the year, more often than other new songs from the same time period such as Shrinking Universe and Micro Cuts. The early version of Hyper Music featured notable screaming during the chorus, especially the Channel V performance. The song was not named until the Origin of Symmetry tour, going under the title "Untitled".
For the Origin of Symmetry tour, with the exception of one date on the Plug In Baby tour and a handful of sporadic concerts throughout the year, Hyper Music was performed at nearly every concert. In November 2001, the Stockholm Syndrome outro riff was first performed and soon became the Hyper Music outro riff shortly after. All available 2002 performances, as a result, feature the Stockholm Syndrome outro. For 2003, though, the song was only performed at one concert which was not recorded. Hyper Music was permanently dropped from setlists after that. It is possible the hard vocals and the incredibly negative tone of the song prevented it from returning to setlists.
On the 2007 Black Holes and Revelations tour, around the time of the Australian tour, Hyper Music was performed a handful of times as a riff. Dead Star and The Groove similarly returned as riff outros as well at the same time. It would not be until 2011 that Hyper Music would be performed live in full again at the Reading and Leeds performances. From 2011 and onwards, Matt no longer sang chorus vocals; Chris took over the chorus vocals. Sicne Reading and Leeds 2011, Hyper Music has been performed at many rarity gigs (including Tokyo Zepp 2013, the Psycho Tour, and Montreux Jazz Festival 2016) as well as a handful of regular concert dates in 2013.
