Flashing LED

The electronic circuit "Flashing LED" by YuGiOhJCJ[1].
Music "Cockpit view" by Poisoncut[2].
Thanks to PA5CAL on Futura Sciences forums[3].

I use some resistors, capacitors and transistors to make my light-emitting diodes flashing.
In fact, this electronic circuit without LED is called "Astable multivibrator".

I heard that there are others solutions to make light-emitting diodes flashing :
-using directly a flashing LED
-using the NE555 integrated circuit
