Oh man, thanks so much for posting that. I watched a bunch of this guy's videos several months ago but couldn't remember his name and didn't have any decent keywords to search for.
"Hello Youtubes :D!!!"
He's so good.
Wow, that is some really impressive stuff, I'm surprised how much it actually sounded like a guitar playing.
I also checked out his other videos and they don't disappoint, I'd say I enjoyed "Throwing Fire" the most, the drop into beat he does at 22 seconds is awesome.
Woah. This guy is beyond awesome. I always thought those instrument sounds on keyboards were for fun only. That's some serious stuff. Thanks for posting guys.
He's really good, but he's so awkward lol.
He's a perfect example of the reason youtube exists. Hope he can get some kind of recognition for his work. If I had money, I'd establish a foundation to find and develop talents like his for mass distribution.
He's selling his music on iTunes ond has a album... I don't know how good they get selled though.
I just checked the video out, and he's pretty good! I have no idea how those keyboards work though, but its pretty amazing.
Jenkee's first album isn't as good as some of his new stuff. He was planning to release his second one this summer, but it hasn't come out yet.
Ya I heard that the first album is *alot* different from what he has posted on youtube recently... it's a lot slower and less "futuristic" (I don't know but that guitar song I posted and "Throwing Fire" for example remind me of sci-fi computer games like Freespace, Homeworld or Starcraft.... or even older once from the good old amiga or c64)
I like this kind of songs very much... they really get under your skin and I get goosebumps sometimes too ^^
btw what I also like when he's playing: He's smiling now and then, at least it looks like that and it makes me smile too :)
edit: @ 1:40 ^^
He really looks like he has fun when he's playing it, even though I'd guess he'd be playing and practicing the same song for hours before recording it for youtube.
You don't know what the word "improv" means, do you? Or are you being the guy who yells out "DIS IS FAKE" every time he sees something on the internet?
Clearly he has an idea of the chord progressions and structure of his songs and ideas of what he wants things to sound like, but the rest is improvisation.
You totally misunderstood my post.
That was actually really cool xD. The keyboard player from Dream Theater (all of them actually) have been doing things like that for years. I used to ask myself "where the hell are the keyboards in this song?!". Then I realized in many of the songs that had 2 or more guitars solos, one or more of those "guitars solos" were actually keyboard solos.
And yeah, no doubt that guy has had a lot of practice before hand. But you know, that's standard stuff for skillful musicians. Those who haven't had a lot practice...aren't skillful musicians.
Not quite funny as it is simply amazing, but here's what I found while Stumbling: the Hammer guy.
That's nifty. I'm sort of wondering if that guy's a juggler rather than a tradesman IRL though.Quote:

it's the same with this one
Not sure about the first one, but yours looks quite fake. Those glasses are sticking like magnets.Quote:

and to the first vid
they are talkin like they are doing an advertisment (and no I'm not saying that because they actually said "We'll show you a real "Obi" advertisment")... the guy holding the camera is screaming how awesome he is and how wonderfull this is... yet it sounds like he isn't even amazed which makes me think that he doesn't see what the other guy is doing and everything was cut in later.
and they don't show the guy juggling the hammers (as soon as the hammer hits the nail it should become nearly impossible to juggle them)
btw why I know it's fake? because both videos (the sunglasses video and the "hammer guy" video") were shown in a tv-series and they proved it if it was possible or not and later explained how they edited it ^^
