superstition riff

[pianoman930]

This is what YouTube is for.

[reformationband1]

somebody get this guy a real clav. please. he would be an unstoppable monster

[ryanmary110307]

I play'd it in eflat, ( figured out by ear) and I believe its almost all black keys, ecxept for Fand A i think.. idk theory really but its super fun to play around with.. and by the way dude, way to shread those keys! your siiiick!

[damedoodie]

Tempo tempo tempo!

I've got no kick against modern jazz,

Unless they try to play it too darn fast

And lose the beauty of the melody

Until they sound just like a symphony

[mooogg]

very VERY nice!

[jeleneluar]

korg karma ?

[yutzy1]

absolutely amazing. i love funky clavi.... and doing the superstition! great!!!! side note though, you sped up during your whole rendetion. just giving positive feedback (opinion; may be right or wrong) from someone who also wants people to give me opinions. Love your keyboard skills. i'd love to hear you play a moonlight sonata or something slower and more emotional. any thoughts?

[Scampbell32]

did he just play bass on a piano...?

[Chriskkboongg]

Play in the right key!

[gunneralquist]

oysterlovers dude - if funk was a sickness, they'd need to send an ambulance for your ass - this is SICK good

[johnhancockish]

God Bless You man!!

[MrBoebigz]

What exactly are you doing with your left hand? Is it just octaves? And what sound were you using on the Karma? I'm trying to fit this into a solo for a contest that i'm in and i'm representing Texas so I'd really like to blow the judges away and this would be perfect! Any help would be really appreciated, AWESOME SKILLS!

[caasiolf]

i am not very superstitious when i say that those fingers are possessed.

[virveh]

wow!



[Hanzalm]

SICK!!!!!

[thibolt236]

your amazing !

[Mole1992]

you just got another subscriber, this is so good. get some more funk up! (i am about to see if you already have haha)

[mondialferrari]

man please buy a real clavinet , this is 95% fake sound

[krimsonfunk]

Stevie would be proud! Well done ma man.

[Mikeg73070]

Just goes to show what good talent and a nice tone can produce, a great video. Nice riff , you nailed it.

[braden445]

This sounded like an intro to an early 90s sitcom.

[coloradoblaze]

@braden445

SO TRUE

[MrClubXd]

that sounds ghetto lmbo

[orangehero2000]

That is some wicked good playing. Thanks for the video.

[Waynester1973]

dude!! im trying to work out the brass section that you play using the clav sound starting at 0.22 seconds, need the notes for the right hand and the left hand, any help would be ace, im lost as to exactly what is is buddy, great playing!

[oysterlovers]

@Waynester1973 This vid is in the key of E (original is Eb) - so here i'm playing a B7 chord, then C7, B7 , Bb7 , A7. This isn't what the original brass part does, but it's what i'm doing. The left hand copies the chords - B, C, B , Bb7, A

[spikeingshuffler]

@oysterlovers

so in the original key of Eb,

which chords are being used?

sorry im not that bright.

[JockRonayne]

Man, u can seriously play, but I can't dig the sound of KARMA, I wanted too, I really did, because right now I am watching one on Ebay with no bidders at A$600. But I have not found one vid that suggests I need this, so, I guess I am saving my dough.

[oysterlovers]

@JockRonayne @JockRonayne Trust me you can't go wrong at 600 dollars !! In fact , I might take a look at it as a backup. I know the sound quality of this video isn't great, but I have a Yamaha Motif XS and I still prefer to use the Karma live. It was good enough for Jordan Rudess ( he had one midi'd through to his main board and used the synth lead sounds ) , and it has the same engine as the mega selling Triton.

[b1ng0123]

@JockRonayne if your looking for a nice stable keyboard go with a yamaha. i personaly use a DGX 230 because i like the sound. but pretty much any yamaha will get it done and at a reasonable price.

[zchris87v]

freakin nasty. who voted this vid a thumbs down? talentless punks...

[HohnerClavinetD6]

Just...awesome. Love it.

[SnoozeIRTL]

Man! You need a clav! That would sound amazing if you had a real one

[xabbukhozek]

@SnoozeIRTL lol believe me, thats a real fucking nice clav

[SnoozeIRTL]

@xabbukhozek Its a real nice digital keyboard, but Its not a real clav. Like with hammers and strings in it. Type in claviduck and watch his videos. Hes got a real one, and you can tell the difference ;) They don't make real ones anymore, for some reason... :|

[P80H]

genius

[coolestguyalive]

one of the best improvs ive seen on this riff. that was siiickkkkk XD

[manutecla]

I really like how you play. well done

[luftydrums]

very nice!

[xxtomtomxx45]

WOW...that was pretty fucking awesome doood..

[Flyelskeren]

yeaaaah! THAT'S how to play the intese Wonder funk on clavs!! pretty damn good I'd say.

[carscs]

Sounded great! Although-it sounded like you were playing it in the wrong key. i believe its in Eflat.

[Cds56]

@carscs or he transposed it.

[jonnno243]

Yeah...the clavinet is a percussive instrument...and you play it so  good...

I have a clavinet duo..(hohner clavinet plus pianet)..

Your playing is gonn make me want to get better :)

[JerryVmika2]

Now thats what I call percussive playing and

Improv, I didnt miss the drums,  GREAT.

[dinaiz]

Stevie, is that you ????? Fucking SICK man ! :-)

[toolvool]

SICK LOVE THE RETRO STUFF

[Flyelskeren]

dude, totally awesome impro part! :D

[JGsLife]

woooooooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[musicmad247]

kick ass! :)

[walkitoutbro]

yia boiii!!!!!!!!!

[NicksJam]

Love it.

Pro Played

[shredder40]

u are amazing ,......i just got a keyboard and i am playing around with it and you are absolutely awesome,......a definite inspiration ,.....peace and thank you for posting this

[4ADON]

Mate, thats stupidly good!! Honestly amazing... how long did it take you to be that quick and fluent from the moment you started to learn it??

[saintdo]

woww

[33fgfhjjggy6y]

lose the chain n ur rist

[chillraph]

me gusta mucho! but i think the sound itself should be more solid. by the way the lick at 0:50 is amasing I always love those

[hotlanta71]

less digital phaser, less digital sampler, more strings

[masmanioto]

Great !!! Fantastic...

Abraços From Brasil

Marco A. Smanioto

[kmartb]

looks sped up

[oysterlovers]

thanks - it's not

[alex9050]

How much was the keyboard and what do you think of the organ sounds?

[oysterlovers]

when i bought it i think about 2000 euros, but it was new, so now i think you could get a second hand one for about 600 - i still use the organ sounds live instead of my yamaha motif - it just seems to cut through better

[alex9050]

Yeah man, I've got a yamaha Mo8, and the organ is horrible. Looking for something else to fill it live

[xblakeslady]

Awesome; but it's just a bit too fast for my taste!

[MarquisEstelle]

That's worth seeing a slowed down, better camera angle version of. Well played, interesting inverted chord structures.

[jpb11380]

jesus he's funky

[jonhickman123]

haha, safe. i think thats the only way to play this part. the original has like 8 clavs. if you watch stevie live he doesnt actually play it like that; he plays the main riff in the left hand and stabs chords in the right. but i've tried getting the feel of this tune myself and the way ur doin it is the only way i can do it too. adding the rhythm with the LH fills it out way more.

[crohnsappleadams]

Slow down, man. Were you late to work or something?

[Kaminari3]

SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!!!!!

[neurochris]

wicked man good job :) so funky

[wow3123]

funky as hell

[UnfairJudge]

that synthe got a wicked digital playschool sound

[GF15853]

very good

[BobbyJules2nd]

The Korg Karma with the floppy disk. lol.

[oysterlovers]

Yeah I never understood that either - even when it came out in 2001most people were on to CD

[fantasiaboy]

You have magic hands hommie. Very Impressive.

[wb00grib]

'Could be played a little smoother

[JuZee]

BEAUTIFUL!!

[Jobrosoxx]

wow thats so cool haha i like it! :)

[whitajeman]

Whos that one of the Gotti boys? Heeey Whats with the gold bracelet thingy ova here huh? ....go bust this guys friggin head you's..lol no but seriously i couldnt even enjoy it cuz i kept thinking..."why the hell would he want that crappy gold chain swingin around while he's tryin to play?...i mena what is that supposed to be?..Flair?

[oysterlovers]

lol

[miguelajh]

eahhh dont run....

[TikkiTikki7]

You have lots of natural tallent,and you have way more chops than I do, but this was way too fast and heartless. Put some soul into it, don't just fly over the keys. Not to mention, played in the wrong key. It's all black keys.

[onemorepianist]

that sounded horrible...

[oysterlovers]

What did I ever do to upset you? Your videos are amazing by the way !!!!

[djdorama]

Oh my god I just watched this guy's videos hahahahahahaha.

Great vid by the way.

Korg KARMA looks sweet.

[DaniilChernov]

Yeah! Nice

[JoshM26]

wow

[samworskett]

funky!

[Mikeg73070]

Great job on this song...nice tempo and feel to it!!

[hjfgdhsg]

are you stevie wonder?

[theiceman259]

which korg is that and how much?

[oysterlovers]

it's a korg karma - i think you can get one on ebay for about 700 dollars - when I bought mine it cost a whopping 2300 euros !

[COCKRICHARD1]

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S!!!IST GREAT!

[chrismarx85]

Thats HOT!

I wish youtube and computer speakers had better BASS output... Great embellishments too!

[LETHALSCOPEDOWNER]

i think i just cummed

[Checkjezelfnou]

Whahahahahhaa !! xD

[314noceu]

MY DICK IS HARD

[Merecocross]

Really? Can I touch?

[theiceman259]

wtf

[Jonboyutube]

wtf

[Stratocaster42]

Damn that was impressive.

[DaCrazyJoker]

woooooooo!!! God damb that was good!

[thame2010]

Good, but you have to slow down, seriously.

[DaCrazyJoker]

I disagree. If the riff is slowed down it wont have the same effect as it does already.

[thame2010]

Yeah well, I said that considering he wanted to make a "cover". But I guess you're right. No one tries to copy a song 1/1 ;)

[jimifloydrix]

funkalicious

[FunksUTube]

Funky!

[MusicGuru12]

Woah! That was so funky! Loved it.

[YurtleTheTurtle]

[Nillerbabsen]

Nice job - sounds damn great to me, dude! Im fallin in love with those scales, man...

[bullfork]

Loved the riffs. Funky indeed. Hard as hell to play Superstition and sing it !

[HxCandGore]

Stevie Wonder played superstition the way it felt, so it was different almost every time he played it

and everytime it was bad ass

[crushme41dmb]

damn that was funky. Loved it.

[Fann111]

WOW:O nice dude

[Highflyer1971]

awsome fella, funky indeed ;)

[sajorojas]

You would have made a great slap bass player. (For all I know, you are)

[sammyboi55]

that sounds shit.

[willthethrill129]

dude your good, but play it in Eb in stead. Keep up the funkyness.  - Will the Thrill

[alt1962]

funky groove...

[OSMacaco]

the original key is E flat though, but you've got the groove and that's the important part! Good Job :D

[SoFlaPatriot]

Sweet

[FRAT99Po]

that was bloody tight

[jazzhory7]

Yeah baby! meeeeean!

[alex9050]
