Best Dragonforce Keyboard Solo

[charleshelber]

??? Videogame song?

[jaedcapo]

why is everyone bitching? hes not playing random keys for fucks sake, it just doesnt work, ive tried it already

[TheHardstuffer]

he's not that awoseme... he just messes up with random slides and scales... and remember that on keyboard it's much easier to play at that speed than in a normal piano... he's just ok

[SuperbamenteTale]

Stupid sound...but amazing Keyboard !!

[iKeyboard15]

VAIDM=BEAST

[left4tenerife96]

Vadim is fantastic

[TheBardonator]

HOLLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Amazongrassmonster]

he's a good performer. i'll give him that.

[MiyasmaTube]

I seriously can't find a single video of Vadim using polyphonic synth. What, is he afraid of being able to mess up with having a keyboard that actually plays CHORDS?

Monophonic synth lets you be extremely sloppy and get away with it. This is obvious by the way that the guy randomly slides his hands on the keyboard.

[Sean787448]

@MiyasmaTube dude wtf?

[cky12qxz]

@MiyasmaTube Because chords sound stupid when bending it's pitch, which he tends to do every time he gets a solo.

[armaggeddonflame]

Dude...their bassist plays some bad ass six strings!

[ederantonio10]

1:03 - 1:08

[TuningFreak23]

This Vadim is the worst keyboard player I've seen in my life

[TehPenguinNerd]

[metaladdict24]

[Metalstrix]

uh my mum is dead so you can suck your own for now little boy. Bullshit you can play better than him with your twinkle little star. Load of wankery? Geez where the fuck do you come from?

[Revanfall]

Hahaha you got pwned buddy!

[metaladdict24]

[Revanfall]

Lol. You have the mind of a 14 year old for using "Your mum". Hahahahah! Stupid Kids. Metalstrix, lets leave this poor little child alone. Assholes have the last say.

[metaladdict24]

maybe you two should go and bum each other in the bush,just be careful of any dingoes,oh sorry i forgot,theyre to busy eating peoples babies

[Revanfall]

You have a very sick mind. You know exactly that can never happen. You're a Screwed up 14 year old child.

[metaladdict24]

why dont you shut your stupid face you retarded hillbilly

[Revanfall]

HAHA! You're our bitch now! BITCH! Your insults are nothing compared to the brains of Uni students. Victory to us Metal and crackers! We have some funny children now days eh?

[metaladdict24]

if all uni students are like you then the world is fucked,just go and shag your sister or something little inbred,if it werent for the english back in the 1800's you'll be still in some cave eating raw meat you asswipe

[Revanfall]

You're so not a Metaladdict. You're an IncestAddict. You love screwing your brothers and sisters right? Is that all you can think of to use againts other people? Well nicely done mate. Have a Medal. Medal of Incest.

[Crackers755]

You are such a sickening screwed up individual. Seriously little pre schooler, PLZ Grow up and stop talking about your incest Fantasies okay? You know exactly that no one here is gonna get "Fucked in the ass". Your insults aren't offensive. You're just making yourself look like an idiot. Grow up.

[Metalstrix]

Lol is this fucktard still having a go at us? LMAO! He's sooo fucked up. He has No friends at all. He releases his frustration on us along with Incest talk hahahahahah! I know.. He's a Dragonforce fan because he's checking the videos out. Lmao. He's our Bitch and DF fan too Revan.

[RejectYourMorals]

You're all immature.

[metheanalogkid]

That's plain ridiculous

[DragonForcebest]

cool.

[chris4laura]

Vadim is hella good fun!

Check my vids of them live in Belfast :) Vadim and Fred had some fun with their solos :P

[tiggxtreme]

Maybe it's just the 'Dragonforce factor', but no matter how skilled they play, anything by them sounds shitty, and everything by them sounds the same.

[teggggR]

1.57 :)

[Shatteredilluzion]

herman just called vadim baka na.

[joshuaray32]

it sounds like a game!!!

[1sueco2]

dude... the keyboard solo would b perfect as background music for some lame Gameboy video game... if you want to see some REAL solos on a comparable instrument, check out gregg rolle's organ solos

[FurbyParade226]

I agree with satanstrawberry =) lol I'll stick to Mikko Harkin and Jens Johansson

[Gasleak28]

And I thought Janne Wirrman (Children Of Bodom) was a good keyboardist..

[BlazeKnight33]

wow. I think vadims good, but in my opinion janne wirrman, mikko harkin, and jens johanssan are muuch better in my opinion. Just because vadims playing basicly a bunch of random stuff that he memorized that has no rythm at all basicly like randomly shredding on a guitar except with a keyboard.

[jacktherippergod]

mikko is god on keyes

[Pojkenutanframtid]

dude janne wirrman is 100 times better vadim, no offence ppl, vadim owns. but janne is way better

[satans666strawberry]

this sucks,

about 90 % of what hes playing isnt musical hes just slidingand tapping his fingers overloaded with effects

[troymsteele]

dude, you have no fucking idea what ur talking about

[GeebusClaws]

bwahahaha vadim the melodic norse god of keyboardness?

[nightshot999]

lol youtube fights are funny, Vadim owns!

[Hellsadvocate]

This is why I love Dragonforce.

A good band can't JUST play their music, but they entertain also.

[powertokerfromhell]

your a faggot shut the fuck up dragonforce isnt metal fuck you your a faggot i wish i could reach through this fucking computer screen and punch your fucking face in

FUCK YOU FAGGOT!

[Hellsadvocate]

Go smoke weed, douchebag.

And besides, I bet you condone christianity, yet your hatred of 'faggots' comes from that. Fucking sheeple =D

[powertokerfromhell]

ok with a name like powertokerfromhell i highly doubt im christion but actually take a second to see the vifeo and realize how fucking gay it is?

[Hellsadvocate]

And where does your amusing fear of homosexuality come from? CHristianity.

Like I said, go smoke weed and think you're an original kid.

Fucking people like you are worthless to society.

I HATE CHRISTIANS BUT I BELIEVE IN EVERYTHING THEY DO!... except the part about god.

[Strikezone94]

It's easier to say you have christian morals...

[scruffistomato]

umm... dragonforce is metal... they are classified as "power metal" or "thrash metal".. retard... befor you go saying things like that at least have information to back your self up. I have read the Dragonforce official website a few times and i know what they are classified under.

[powertokerfromhell]

they arent power metal learn ur fucking metal, iced eath is power metal, possessed and kreator are thrash metal. dragonforce is fucking nintendo metal. theres a local record shop here and dragonforce is listed under poser.....not even joking. herman li also uses a tremolo pedal to make it sound like hes playing fast and if u dont beleive me look it up on youtube

immortal is metal same with bathory not a band named dragonforce, i expect to here this music on somejapanese racing game....

[ShredLi01]

What a Fucking Dick Knob...Dragonforce is Classified as Power metal...get it all in your fucking little brain of yours

man i bet you can't even go up on stage and play on stage cause you're a fucking faggot...i bet you're not a religious type...cause your user name is not even holy...I'm a Catholic...I been to WYD 2008...your just a fucking sore loser with no friends

[sk8metalnick6]

your a fucking joke,you sound like an idiot talking about the tremolo pedal.i looked that up and it sounded nothing like dragonforce.i looked up poser in a dictionary and saw your picture,so dont be classifying them as posers because youre a jealous cunt.dragonforce owns you

[Taylor255]

How do you know it was his picture?

[jmking182]

THRASH METAL? LOOOL. Bro the genre they try to play is speed power metal, but unfortunately this is terrible and truly shows their lack of melody.

[ShredLi01]

Dude Power metal is like Speed metal...look every type of metal you listen to originate from rock...so power metal originate from speed metal

[neemandhaydn]

After watching this I really want a Roland AX-7 Customised like Vadims.

[ShredLi01]

Yeah...so amazing...i heard they are quite hard to find in any music store unless you know the right one...anyway do you play keyboard?

just asking cause i too started playing it a few months ago...I"m mainly good on guitar following all artist (Includes Herman Li, MAB,etc)skills

[JumboDavid]

Vadim is totally awesome. Reminds me of the old Zelda games. Good sound quality too.

[dragonheartx3ro]

Vadim makes nintendo even more dominate

[JimDimTheGreat]

Fred is playing herman's signature guitar.Fred pwns!

[csimchick12]

terrible band, terrible keyboard player, if thats him at his best, I got could do better then him

[ShredLi01]

like to see you post a video up there faggot...let's see you try and gain some fame here in youtube

[dragonforcerocks11]

2:09 - 2:13 how does he do that does anybody know plz send me notes

[Firefret30003]

2:36 - vai tribute!

[GearsofWar360maniac]

whos the dude with the green guitar?

[BIGWHITE20]

their basist

[Yuna5]

Frédéric Leclercq

[Metalsharp]

Vadim didn't do something like taht at the concert i went to :(

[Alex112596]

whats this song?

[Kistarcsa]

It's "Dragonforce's random keyboard interlude on concerts" :)

[Kistarcsa]

Sam at 1:32 What's he doing? :D

[masonsims123]

his pose.

thats sorta his thing (that and drinking booze onstage)

[Narimatzu]

wow they're pretty crappy live

[silentscope123321]

Last time i DF live he did something like this, was awesome and hopefully when i see them again in Oct he will do some more. Love Vadim and DragonForce.

[StupidQuestionZ]

this is like polka speed metal lol dragonforce pwnz

[Kainoncito]

amazing

[DylanKeywizRad]

Lol vadim is so fucking terrible at keyboards. Are any of you fanboys actually keyboardists or do you just find sloppy keyboard solos amusing?

Either way, there are hundreds of better keyboardists out there, and this solo is pathetic.

by the way, playing the simpsons theme in the middle of his solo was a blatant ripoff of jordan rudess live in new york on scenes from a memory. Do your research, hes a theif, and he cant play for shit. More of a technician than a musician.

[HalfManHalfDuck]

^The guitarists' over-distorted mess of slop makes the keyboardist sound great by comparison

[Fox235]

That is so interesting that you took your time to write that, bravo. It's funny because regardless of what you say millions love 'em.

[JCA7X]

hey dylan, wheres your fame, your fans, he can play 10000 times better than you, ye i am a keyboardist and i can see talent, can u?

[Anon5111605]

HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA DYLAN TNGA

You faggot scrub.

[leo111991]

this video must be old. its back when sam still played jacksons, he cant anymore cuz he made a deal with ibanez.

[wewillrocku665]

wow!

[Skynyrdfan34]

that was sweet

[XamousXastXords]

like playing old games!

[Beebaboo]

Wow, Dragonforce sure knows how to rile up a crowd! I hope I get to see them in concert!

[wojpiet]

what a chaos !!!

[Liarsthrown]

sounds like r2 d2 having a ceshzer

[resistance189]

ive always wondered were is dave mactinsoh and zp?

[resistance189]

dang you have a really good camera

[LinkBulletBill]

good camea angle too

[Oliverto1]

super mario bros

[neemandhaydn]

Vadim is awesome at keyboard solos. it's just such a shame that there's not many in their albums.

[JackXavier123]

the one in revolution deathsquad is awesome

[resistance189]

thats crazy

[lulutalkingdolphin]

lol. sam was all pissy at him cuz he just wouldn't stop playing. i wouldn't if i was that good.

[silentscope123321]

Doesn't get enough credit for his role in the band. he was awesome when i saw the band live while ago. so good

[avsfdf22]

keyboard duel who would win

dragonforce's - vadim or

children of bodom's - janne warman

[COBHCSS]

I think it wouldnt be too hard to decide, vadim just likes playing shit that sounds kool, dont get me wrong, he is talented, but janne has more training and is more experienced, i think a true battle would be between janne and jordan rudess

[oscius]

umm, Jordan Rudess would beat Wirman very easily vladim and Janne is acualy way closer duel and I think Wirman would win just by a little. Wirman has a good lead sound, that can't be said about Vladim, but he does some cool stuff :). I am not a bit fan of Rudess but it is really pretty clear that he is better player than pretty much anyone on Metal scene, he uses his left hand like many use their right and is a sound designer too.

[MikeProphet]

But dude, janne and jordan are pretty much the same, bot of them are classically trained, rudess just has more experience, give janne till he is 50 and he will rule jordan rudess

[DylanKeywizRad]

Anyone who thinks vadim can play the keyboard should really get tested for mental retardation.

Really, there are literally 6 year olds that can out play this faggot.

[wowtrax]

LOL you try and play what he plays

[DylanKeywizRad]

He doesnt play it. All his solos were done on valley of the damned by another keyboardist, the reknown god, Clive Nolan. Do your research.

Live, he sequences his solos and pertends to play I saw him live.

Im a professional keyboardist, I notice these things, fanboy.

Anyone over the age of 15 that still likes dragonforce has serious problems.

[COBHCSS]

How can you call yourself musician, trying to put down other players to make yourself feel better, he isnt my favorite, far from it, but still, he DOES play his solos, and yes, the only reason he didnt play on valley of the damned was because he joined the band 3/4 of the way through recording and he admitted to not recording them, at least he didnt take credit for it.

[DylanKeywizRad]

If you wanna check out my stuff, search for ''Sacrifycia, Katacombs'' on youtube, check out chapter 3, thats the song where I actually play a decent solo, I mostly play short leads.

Vadim is horrible. Just watch this video, he has no concept of melody, or musicianship. I mean, come on.

[Lethallergy]

I'm 16. I like Dragonforce.

[silentscope123321]

Lol yeah im 18 and i been a fan for 6-7 years

[Dor150]

stupid, the last keyboardist before vadim left with the bassist in 2001 to make Powerquest

[silentscope123321]

Power quest is awesome 2, tied with DF my favorite band

[Pojkenutanframtid]

idiot vadim was a original member of dragonforce BUT there was TWO keyboardist.. go wikipedia

[greebo666greebo]

He's right nerds....

[DylanKeywizRad]

Thank you!

[resistance189]

in dragonforces valley of the damned days they wre to keyboardist you need to do your research

[ShredLi01]

What...Can't hear you...cause the epicness of dragonforce has blocked all noises and comments from you... (and btw I'm sixteen and i like dragonforce and other bands such as iron maidan, soloist such as MAB, steve vai, killswitch, slipknot, childern of bodom, etc...thanks to them i became inspired)... I want to you to play something

[Pojkenutanframtid]

that's good... ppl dont say shit until u have seen this live..
