"This is the hardest thing in the whole set!" (plays it like it's super easy). Roland should hire you or at least give you a stipend for this excellent demo!
absolutely fabulous.. /me has no words. I am trying quite hard to play my synth with some decency, but you make 15 years of my practicing look like 'mary had a little lamb'
still listening and learning and loving, especially black light machine...a masterpiece.....falling down and the rest..milliontown.etc.....bloody marvelous! mix glue extraordinaire...hours of fun! brilliant...thanks!!
I absolutely love everything Jem Godfey does. Seriously, I am in such a good mood after seing this video, no matter what. Thank you Jem for being so so awesome. Makes my day everytime.
I really have been enjoying your "Milliontown" album over the past year! I found it almost randomly on iTunes and then saw you're "unplugged" version of "Hyperventilate", and I was sold! Nice work!!!
Mr. Jam ... please.. IHMO your work/music is really Triple A, no doubt !
But, look to guys like Mr. Wetton & Downes ... they use also the technology's uptodate .. but ..yes so fun..but again IMHO your focus is so mechanical... robotic.. please, if you can... see the old school.. like Downes, Wackman, Emerson, so, you know...
I really wish I could hear the weird low down drum and bass part, because it's really cool sounding, something I'd love to fiddle with, very ruins sounding
ohw sjiiiiit....I practically WAS already in love with frost.....but now I see how to play it......IT'S EVEN FRIKKIN'MORE FANTASTIC!!!!
you know....that might be like christmas for you...when you discovered it all worked again'n stuff...but today was my christmas seeing this video.....I WILL play all of it...ALL OF IT!!! MHUHAHAHAHAHAHA
You know, i can't wait until you become famous with like 10 to 20 albums out. I'll be able to say, "I was with them right after they released their first album! You guys are just phoneys!"
It's really cool of Jem to show us the magic behind the live keyboard setup! I find it very very interesting as an amateur keyboardist myself, and it's truuuuuuuly appreciated!
Your passion & excitement is absolutely infectious here. Terrific demo.

Such a dramatic tale of Fantom pain, Fantom lost, Fantom regained and Fantom (and yet very real) fun!
You should market this vid as an anti depressant... *nods*

absolutely brilliant. I own an Yamaha Motif XS8 but when I see this I thing I might need a X6 besides that thing ;-)
Brilliant pieces of work and I never saw someone use a synth that good!

You can do that with most keyboards that have aftertouch. Even Korg N364 can do it.

Dang, a friend of mine referred me this video regarding augmented 4ths/tritone run lines.
You've definitely got something going there, not a spot of mistakes. :O Nicely done.
Is the Fantom any good for custom sound patch design? I do quite a bit of sound designing for random synths in my free time.

Serfox here sent me "Hyperventilate" and I loved it.
Great musicianship. Congratulations, and keep it up.

You guys should make an attempt at a 26 minute video of Milliontown the song. That'd be a great feat of stamina.

Sweet lord I would love that so much XD
And I'm sure everyone else in the over 3 thousand views of hyperventilate would love it as well.
