[atirasalsero]

Aside from the fact that this is a genius performance, this is mosty tapping, not slapping.

[ApacheX11]

this motherfucker

[jokerman024]

masssively insane....i kinda hate music...mostly because the words mean more than the sound these days...and lately the words have been trash...this is the essence of music...the instrument being played beautifully with no words, just your own feeling....ahh..to bask in true music...its refreshing

[suprisepunch]

this guy makes music.

pogo makes music.

animal collective makes music.

the flaming lips make music.

the shins make music.

the rest is just sound.

[wastedstaples]

Nothing short of moving.

[pariahnwa]

Oh my god, I made a mess...

[jvgough]

@pariahnwa me too, man, me too

[ShimmySystem]

There needs to be a TV channel that shows real talented musicians like this, instead of shit MTV does.

[NCalabreezy]

@ShimmySystem When everyone's likes and opinions are the same as yours, maybe your dream will come true. Until then, keep a bit more of an objective mindset.

[themightythor27]

@ShimmySystem Agreed! I would really like to see this. Music isn't about who's hot or who's not, its about heart, passion, and a feeling you get that can't be described into words. Thats why music was created.

[olmo2603]

@ShimmySystem

that an awesome idea mate. brilliant stuff. could watch this for hours

[klimt8me]
