The Weisstronauts: Ring Mod aka Modsavasana

[Grubenpony12]

Very good!

[FliperBand]

cool

[digitlove]

how did you guys get the rist guitar to sound like that? ive ben looking for a tone like that but, quite frankly am not wise enough in the musical world to know how to get it, but i really liked it!

[weisstronaut]

Moog Ring Modulator pedal. Glad you like it!

[TheSleepingVillage]

i like it!

[downloadringtonez]

very cool. Very talented. :)

[baconwafer]

[frankiefusion]

Moogerfoogers are amazing.

[weisstronaut]

Thanks for all the kind words, everyone! It was suggested that I mention where you can order CDs by The Weisstronauts. Go to weisstronauts com and look for the "listen/buy" link.

[ccc8008]

Wow Pete. Look at how many views for just a few hours on the front page. Cool tune love how the drum beat mixes beautifully with the Sitar-Guitar. Is this the sitar I saw at Verdant? Kaika

[kiew0101]

incubus uses this effect in pistola

[sooln]

Sweet savasana!

I hear this is the theme to the new I Dream Of Jeanie film coming out in January. It stars Karen Black and the late Dudley Moore.

[ezmorningrebel]

I dig the song, very unique, but 56 secs. is kinda short. I don't think anyone would complain if you made it a little longer.

[turetapp]

cool =)

[smrob]

i can't believe that song made sense to so many people..

[pinkfloydn1fan]

very experimental i like it

[downfader2]

Really rather cool

[xkabrakanx]

que estupidez mas grande..

This is stupid...

[Integrity2345]

It sounds like Sitar -an Indian version of Guitar

[JuicestainMedia]

Actually its a "Sitar-Guitar." You can see it in the shot on the left with the cello. It's basically a guitar with added drone strings to make it sound like a Sitar.

[cowboymimes]

My 3 month old son really digs this tune!

[ForwardMarsh]

Really good, liked it alot. I'd rather you'd taken it in an electronica direction rather than a psychedelic rock direction as I reckon you could have done something way way more interesting with the drums, but that's personal preference. I'm a massive Aphex Twin fan, haha. Good stuff.

[sriteja786]

Thanks so much. We sure had fun making this song and video.

[1jmecher]

is best

[cacysay]

Hey I just checked out your Seven X's video. Unbelievable!

[naughtypuppetshow]

great playing.

[maynard7]

hey pete dana colley here

nice stuff or the right stuff or both

the quality of the video upload supreme

hope your well hi to mel

[weisstronaut]

A lot of people were curious about the guitar effects used. For the record, the main guitar (there is no bass guitar) is a Fender Musicmaster, going through a Moog Moogerfooger Ring Modulator, sort of "tuned" to the "key" of the "song." Yeah. The main synth you see in the video is a Moog Voyager. Thanks for all the sweet comments.

[franchise024]

That was tight

[saikepaura]

..wow forte direi!! davvero strani.

[weisstronaut]

Multo grazi!

[lolpatrolz]

First! And this video is fake!

[Hekerui]

An electrical sitar!!

[okturus]

cool man

[andreasmisera]

Wow - I've just listened to this track 30 times in a row, and it keeps getting better! Amazing!

[weisstronaut]

Dang! Thanks so much for the good words! We sure had fun making this song and video. Means a lot to us when people really connect with it.

[Vikokn]

very good

[Cooldrew100]

Errr...what

[364652091]

It's greate

[DBZbankai]

Woah~ nice

[WayToTheGrave]

Just ordered my copy of the album. Ace stuff

[TheSeptembrist]

awesome..all i can say is.. you keep making music like this song.. i'll quickly become a fan.. keep it up man!

[weisstronaut]

Thanks, The Septembrist! Be sure to check out our latest song/video called Seven X's. Bet you'll dig it.

[0neironaut]

fuckin noise.

[Damphear]

captain beefheart

fans much?

[HarryMatic]

0:35 - 0:40

old south park theme?

[KINGTIKO360]

I like it.

[Garboth]

atonal yet listenable, a great combination!

[paulwall08]

that was a cool but why only three and a half stars? I'll give it 5.

[lebleufleur]

Modsavasana

[metro345101]

AWSOME

[einsteinian]

Ok this clinches it, I need to let people hear my real music. I write music, play it, and even sing my own original songs, but NOBODY has ever seen them, I was too embarrassed to record them and only uploaded poor videos of me playing and singing as a joke somewhat. But after seeing the multiple great comments on this video it gives me hope that I may actually have something decent, albeit strange, if people dig this stuff as well.

[snipelfritz]

Sweet dude. The guitar sound reminds me of H.E.L.P.E.R. from The Venture Brothers.

[MusijaeThe80sGirl]

cool

[cottonear]

what's with all the mics on the tom?

[cottonear]

kickass!!!!

[katieMCbindergarten]

that's fanTAStic. yeah?

[680matt]

What guitar is that at :20 ?

cool song by the way

[willman1111]

i dont get it

[anhuihbo]

It was in deed!

[Mitchellfreestyle26]

very good.

[wokmonster]

Wow just killer & inventive

great job.

10/10

[zl61291906]

操 英文不好学

[breyerROCKS2]

This is great

[caseyj0nas]

awesome

[FatWagar]

really creative!

[nntogo]

sorry, but about once every, i dunno, ten years or so, someone comes along and runs a guitar through an unusual filter (like a ring modulator) and everyone is all like, "WOW!" folks, ya need to get out more.

[paintball2222]

great

[cchdddy]

cool. My tone lab can do all that

[Rolovis]

...interesting.

[pampers1919]

nice moog!!!

Dj uplift

[xsited1]

I used to do crap like this when I was a teenager just learning to play guitar. Maybe I should upload it to YouTube and make some money.

[rcubina]

amazing

[frilerr]

yeah

its great!

[pumpkinpi2]

awesome

[kidmaker888]

wow

[drmofcali4niktun]

hey man what are you using for the guitar effect? i like the synth type sound on it

[tommyslut]

ring mod

[djgiga]

ring mod is short for ring modulation, an effect of many probably. They are probably running it through a synth like you say.I know you can run audio through an MS-20.look it up. there is a video online of a guy running sound though one. also if your interested check out my video inflatable grid which uses almost exclusively ms-20 effects from a VST emulator.Can't really tell what type of synth they are using from that pic although I don't think it is an ms-20.But the same principal applies.

[Jakusthecount]

clue is in the title..

[iPityDatFoo]

the white guitar solo sounds very reminiscent of Joe satriani's Ice 9

[nsvchood]

brief, to the point, orginal and pure

colour me impressed

[0c4pnh4nk]

That was awesome!

[jmanuelsilvasalmeron]

it was in deed

[ZacTV]

thats a wierd distortion in my opinion

[ludland]

ring mods must be in

awesome

signed,

lud

[freakadeliic]

booo

[OZilla612]

FIRST! ........doh

[RAGINTROLL]

Being the first to comment on a video like this isn't exactly a good thing.

[CzarThePlezer]

Disgusting music is not only like shit but it makes you feel like shit

[meowskull]

agreed.

[dopemcee]

i dont get it....what was the direction for the music?

is it just supposed to be weird for weird sake or was there supposed to be a melody progression on there?

meh.. maybe ill listen to it again to get what direction they wanna go with it.

[meowskull]

wow this really sounds bad.. its starting to give me a fucking headache... Who the fuck is incharge for featured videos? He really has horrible taste..

[charlieproductions]

raaay, very good if you ask me

alot of expensive equipment there *dribbles*

[flimflam0069]

i hate ring mod but you made it work

[ModGyo]

Good song, like the sound of it. Most viewers just don't understand music.

[LordArru]

my ears hurt, public tv channel oh ya

[StandUPProductions]

Rockin!

[monkeyman522]

This would be a cool track to add to the rest of a techno song. On it's own it sounds a little too unfinished and experimental.

[andyuchina]

too hard to appreciate it

[redheadguy719]

please lose the frequency analyzer on the bass

[BeondaPale]

Crimson-esque!!

[imtang0708]

More please!!!

[qq63168098]

cao ni ma

[OT111hater]

OH SHI-

[pacosaidso]

It's telling me to drive syringes under my toe nails.

[twistedsymphony]

Cool Sounds, Nice vice too, a bit too short though.

[BlazinrazinInc]

wow..

[optigrab929]

freshtastic!

[twoppyt]

[astralrock]

OMG, Moog!

YES. Moog for the win.

[MoogMusicInc]
