[ER160990C]

absolutely amazing

[ANDRES77]

G R E A T !!!!

[krispysback]

Anyone got any acid to go with this?

[Nathriel]

x amount of people don't appreciate analogue synth... makes me sad :/ BUT PERFORMANCE SO TOTALLY KILLED! Way to go man, and improv too!

[NukeTheCrossXPT700]

This slayed dude.



[MrChasjon63]

Awesome!!!! Great beat.....

[HDRCX550VE]

This is probably one of the first videos I watched on YouTube. :)

[jesusantispray]

@HDRCX550VE

probably???

[HDRCX550VE]

@jesusantispray It was 5 years ago... I can't remember that much about the first things I watched. >_<

[rapptimes226]

how come your not famous yet?

[MrKuynn]

nice one

[umbra88]

i dont understand why the sound changes so many different ways without him touching anything but the key.... Anyone?

Awesome video

[SynapsicProog]

@umbra88

He has got a foot pedal, generating an so called 'control voltage' (CV) that is fed into some parts of the synthesizer. If you watch closely, you can see his left leg raise and fall when the sound change. What the pedal does depends on where in the synth it is put in, quoting the video description: "I was controlling the filter cutoff with a CV pedal."

[umbra88]

@SynapsicProog awww now I see. Thank you man I appreciate it!

[J0nathan2CHIN0]

PLZ SOMEONE ANSWER Can you record what you play so you can listen to on a cd?

[soulreaverdoug]

this is why i love 80's music so much, synth, synth, syntheboss

[kEYgeNmUsIc1]

that sounds EXTREAMLY like jazz jack rabbit or UT 99 music ^^

[thelol1759]

ZOMG THIS REMINDS ME OF RED ALERT 2!!!!!

wow its been a long time

[thelol1759]

are you god?

[bytex666]

Woww, still after several years there are still new comments on this :) I played the heck out of it years ago and dreamed of my own big modular synth. Now I have my own Analogue Systems modular system. Still a great piece even with just synth and drums.

[misarocksa]

@EleFreako stupid it was in comparison to the song, showing how my incompetence paled in comparison to this.

[gbboi]

feel like blade runner chase!

[PisasterOchraceus5]

I want to shit on him

, borg

[boshaznip]

Wicked video! Just a couple of questions, is the synth mono or poly-phonic? Also, how is it set up with the synth? Do you use a midi to CV converter?

[haggard1987]

I want this song its amazin nearly better that tubeway army lol

[BastardViking]

Totally inspirering man!!

[PartyFuckingGeorgexD]

holy shit.

[wtficantgetausername]

PLEASE MAN MAKE MORE ITS BEEN LIKE YEARS IVE BEEN WAITING

[Ianues]

what keyboard are you controlling that with?

[mootbooxle]

@Ianues A Casio CZ-5000.

[Ianues]

@mootbooxle

no shit, I just got a cz-1 2 days ago, nice

[mootbooxle]

@Ianues that's what's up! The CZ-1 is the nicest one!

[XxXSKYCHIEFXxX]

Bad ass

[JCxXDBA]

i've always thought an awesome band would be one with heavy drums/guitars and then sweet techno stuff like this :)

[delro818]

@JCxXDBA Look up Pendulum - Master Of Puppets + Slam. Not necessarily techno, but really good EDM with live instruments mixed with synths.

[TheVKfan1]

@JCxXDBA Asking Alexandria.. although not AS synthy. You could try Attack Attack! or The Devil Wears Prada.

[AylatheRaichu]

Damn, not bad. 

[thisone248]

You're left handed! :D Just like me.

[Dinglemaniac]

I'm having my doubts that 748 people who happened to stumble across this video can play synth better than this guy..

[CaveofTwoLovers]

Doesn't always keep with the beat, which is disappointing

[KoryuObihiro]

I really want to edit this just a bit, and make an mp3 out of this. Interest, anyone?

[mootbooxle]

@KoryuObihiro There's an MP3 available, in a much better edited form, on my Bandcamp. Mootbooxle dot bandcamp dot com.

[KoryuObihiro]

@mootbooxle Oooh, gotcha. I'm paying for it the instant I get home from work. :)

[jmaguire2013]

@mootbooxle This is sexy as fuck.

[BlatendCrude]

@KoryuObihiro

Eh...........No!

[metemi]

sounds alot like a psytrance lead

[bass1372]

Awesome playing mate ;)

[zt14427]

Sounds like a ratchet and clank background music song

[grEEnfan8880]

I can't stop listening!

[metalhead6777777]

can I get something cheaper to get decent effects like this?...

[mootbooxle]

@metalhead6777777 you could get a Nord Lead and a good distortion pedal. Not quite the same experience, but a very high-quality piece of gear that does something this setup can't: polyphony.

[metalhead6777777]

@mootbooxle and as for the frequency changes with the notes and pitches, with the nobs or whatever?

[ThinkOneMoreTime]

@mootbooxle isn't monophony a bit of the point? :p

[redbull101991]

@metalhead6777777 you can have it all digital for example using Arturia moog modular and a midi keyboard, but imo it will never fully replace a true analog synth.

[jhanskii]

cool

[SoundKnete]

aren't there some pots missing on the space-echo? nice job btw

[mootbooxle]

@SoundKnete Thanks! No, this is a RE-101 Space Echo...it has less knobs.

[Rxdvd]

just throw some random words in every few minutes and you'll be better than daft punk

[bluescan92]

really good :) greetz from Norway :)

[verve92]

its like van halens eruption for synth good stuff

[paulpaid]

Anyone who likes this has GOT to hear this../watch?v=NJR2fA_jZcE

[GersonDjMix]

Grace had wanted to see this wonderful machine operating

[MsKittycat200]

Sweet!!

[misarocksa]

well... i learned where the C note is today...

[mootbooxle]

@misarocksa Well, that's a good start!

[EleFreako]

@misarocksa Oh, no you didn't. It's the D note.

[inndoughmain]

Sick Dude!



[PortalFanPage]

Reminds me of centipede so much!

[MrsDannyWalsh]

shit kill urself u fuckin faggot i can doo better

[shortskrts69]

this puts that techno-sync-house crap to shame.. you rock dude.

[netjerpamiu]

was is dat fürn gerät? geil....

[PBANDSNOW]

You sir...are a god. You must be like, the John Paul Jones of today! BTW if you dont know who that Is I will demote you from God to Jesus.

[sleepinfear]

I think my computer just exploded.

[pedrocarlosleite]

inspirador!

[Matthew0161]

i play synth...

[NIKOLAS200]

HA HA this is the first video I see a guy using a modular synth to create / play music. Farts, beeps, booms or pointless sequening loops is ususally the menu.

Congrats this is awesome. I think you deserve to have such a synth!!!

[asaryamedia]

Still one of my favorite videos on ytube moot.

[YoussefFishere]

Dude, if you ever make albums or anything of the sort, i'd totally buy it.

[YoussefFishere]

What are you looking at? LOL.

[5alamander]

C'mon, smile! You're rocking!

[bjarnstorp]

its relly cool man!!! :))

[electro257]

prefer it without out the dubious beat...

[HankIsAwsome]

sweet but get rid of that hair

[Sarakechi]

Am i the only one thinking of gorgeous Infected Mushroom when i hear this?

Awesome, keep up the good work!

[firsthr]

that drum beat sure is impressive

[DrawSpeed]

Absolutely awesome! You're the man!

[dbrushin]

how is the sound youre playing called?

[pear500]

@dbrushin "Impregnation"

[MasterMcG]

Love the opening sounds like some Goa

[yomykomy]

amazing

[TheJr660]

from 1:26 to 4:50 is best part

[mrmoosedoctor]

your hair is so shiny haha. AND MY GOD CAN YOU PLAY! i am learning piano and am buying a synth soon haha no way in hell could i play like this yet but i can definitely watch you ply like this till i can do it myself in about 20 years haha. nice job

[santoReska]

all your base are belong to us

[FoSbaKiaS]

goa

[1blondiegrl]

Niiiiiice!

[qishmish]

Hey, drums + monosynth is enough for music without other instruments, yes?

[thesoundtestroom]

Modular madness..haha...excellent.

[blinx503]

wow, i wouldn't have guessed that one month after making my talk box, i would run into the same guy showing me what he can do on a synth, you sir, are amazing

[rolandsl]

Search: Painkiller Synth Solo

Ultra Brutal

[goamech]

it's fantastic live

[telecasteredtodeath]

brilliant.. fukn awsome.. great musician.. well done mate!!

[GibsonRocks12]

Does that keyboard allow the dotcom to be polyphonic?

[Thesleepyminds]

D: wtf! XD

[KickTheCanBeatJunkie]

these soulectro beats are free on mee: kickthecan.bandcamp.com

[saucy05]

I ripped the audio from this video and play it during my bike trips. When you need extra motivation during an exercise, this song will helps out a lot. 

[HolyGK]

You look like Derek Trucks

[christianrizzog]

Exceleeent...

[TIPPERBLK]

Is that a CZ-1 you're using as a controller?

[newms55]

I have collected over 20 vintage analog synths. I have some live performance experience and pretty good at sequencing things. I am moving to the south FL area soon. would like to put together a unique band possibly featuring male and female singgers, performing trance/house/techno with a performance show replacing traditional DJ's at raves and clubs. not sure where u are located, but you seem to share some same interests as me and you def have the talent. get back at me if you might be inte

[I3renno]

dickhead!

[2youngbutcrazy]

Is it me, or does this all sound like porn rave music?

[JLadicuss]

That...that boggles the mind dude. Three questions: Where did you learn that? Where are you based? And are you touring anytime soon?

[mootbooxle]

@JLadicuss Thanks! 1. Taught myself...been doing synthesis on different machines since I was like 11! 2. Florida (for now at least) 3. Yes! Haven't booked anything yet but I'm planning to do something on the East Coast like NYC-Philly-Norfolk-Asheville-A­tlanta and in between this summer. If possible. It won't be this type of stuff at all tho...it'll be singer-songwriter stuff with a side of Funk. :)

[snapjaw2]

How the hell did he make that sound at 5:01? sounds like a horror flick lol

[disissanchy]

MOOG analog man.....un fucking believable tone!!!!! You played that thing like some sonic keyboard wizard! Outstanding Good Sir!!

[otterboi26]

Love the fancy finger work. Great video :)

[GLASSVOICES]

Anyone who doesn't like this video is deaf

[rob5000x1]

that setup is insane, im in aw!

[TheDrummerkid770]

Holy crap that was amazing, I can't believe that was live. As an earlier viewer said, I could've sworn it was an arp if their was no video. How... How is this possible???????

[macker44able]

I play synth, we all play synth.

[JimmySparx95]

@macker44able It's not the same without the dodo do dodooo :(

[allotherweretaken]

I think the only plausible description is 'Eargasmic" no?

[musikrammstein]

god fuckin damn this shit is amazing

[chilenoorgullo]

ERASURE

[steen1717]

Dude you should seriously do a new video like this. If this was like 4 years ago i CAN'T imagine how good you should do it now. Seriously do it, thumps up if you want him to see!

[mootbooxle]

@steen1717 You've convinced me. Good job. LOL. I will try to do something else along this line soon!

[HoboJIm117]

Next time, turn your life hacks off please.

This was awesome.

[megamorphilis]

very cool :)

good job, i like "synth playing" in this way. Only manageable with modular synths

[TheSynthZone]

This reminds me of a song Psiklon did in the late 90's, it is visceral.

Keep it up. This sounds like ultra classic synth work and is in a class nearly by it's self. Inspiring? Oh definitel!.

[negrois]

i seen this video like a year or more ago and its still one of my favorites!

[keylinman]

Wow this was amazing. I'm in an audio production class and I record stuff Like techno but I wish I was as good as you. Can u give a lesson on synthesizers and how to play better?

[blestjxp]

RE UPLOAD THIS AT 1080 p.... use windows live movie maker!! :D

[mootbooxle]

@blestjxp That would not be possible. The quality of the actual recording is at best 360p...it was done on an analog camcorder! It's true that if I re-cut this video (I now use Sony Vegas Pro 10) I could get the quality better though. A lot crisper. But not HD quality! Peace :)

[MeanHacker]

@mootbooxle what do you mean "re-cut"?

[NUIGURUMl]

Acid Trance

[juliokautsar1994]

u should be a DJ maan ! awesome !

[Misfire39]

1:27 If I hadn't seen you playing, I would've thought this to be an arpeggiator, that's just NIICEEE! =D Great job, great hands and great synth!

[jefffineberg]

This is some very cool improv. I like the several motifs that grow and morph...very nice.

[Daavoid]

wow that is some serious kit right there

[verdrietigekoekjes]

moot boxxy ?

[rudiiwii1]

Fzero music :D?

[boibad12]

bringin it back to the old school lol

[ThePheasent1]

O_o do you know what every single one of those dials do ? if so how the hell ? xD

[IlluminaBlade]

Would like to see more mind altering synth work from you, all those wires can't be there for just one video!

[MRGRafael]

Moot how old r u bro, and how old were u wen u 1st started your musical journey?

[Utuber202]

I can't help but look at the door handle shaking to the beat.

[gilo7171]

AWESOME !!

[4tkStudios]

NIIIIICE!!! Man, WHAT A KILLER SETUP, LOL!! That's so old-school man!! Sweet skillz too. Gotta check out my latest clip for one of the most epic keyboard solos ever on an original track! Peace out YouTubers

[IvixHira]

743 people are tone-deaf. -__-

[mugilady]

Nice, remindes me litle of a riff in Jesus Christ Superstar :D Love the way you play with the waves, tension before they fall into each other.

[jamesbannon100]

I love this synthesizer! Even with my crap speakers the quality comes through.

[TafkinGo1]

743 people have ridiculed the intelligence of the utmost

[PATROUXAMBIENTMUSIC]

Nice Vintage sounds and crazy solo (remind me Keith Emerson sometimes)

[melotronik]

grandioso, amo del sonido

[Wellingtonsynth]

No emotion

[IvixHira]

@Wellingtonsynth I see the opposite, I think he's concentrating.

[MrGmanFreeman]

This guy has GOT to play Paradise on E - Bounc3

[RicardoDiLago]

Just one word: AMAZING

[Farafonov]

it`s great!

[ForestDweller80]

How do you get to this level of playing? Piano class? Music theory class? I just got a synth and am messing around on it, but am nowhere near this level. Thanks.

[mootbooxle]

@ForestDweller80 Thank you for asking. When this video was made, I'd been playing for about 20 years, so that's definitely part of it. If I could recommend anything to you, learn the major and minor scales. It's kind of boring at first, but it's worth it. The idea is to have all these tools (chords, scales, modes, etc) in your mental arsenal so you don't even have to think about it - you just hear it and your fingers do it. Just don't ever stop playing!! Peace!

[THELASTCLICHE]

@mootbooxle how could you have been playing for twenty years... if you stared when you were eleven... and was twenty two when you made this...?

[spray32]

this is GREAT man! you would make a perfect fit in a children of bodom-like band or sth like that

if you are not, please, start earning money out of your music

[ZAAL58]

Berry berry nice!

[EFBeats]

That set up looks fukin complicated!!:L sounds savage though

[goldbullet50]

kinda like 80's

[apocalypsewarz]

at 1:27 he gets into this cool trance. I'm trying to look for a song that sounds just like that or similar. Any names? I really love the tune on that part. SOMEONE PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!!

[ShootaFodder]

@apocalypsewarz Same! :(

[apocalypsewarz]

at 1:27 he gets into this cool trance. I'm trying to look for a song that sounds just like that or similar. Any names? I really love the tune on that part. SOMEONE PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!!

[DesertSmeagle]

I wish I could do this... Where do I start?

[theguitarlol]

This absoutely kick ass! Even that time rest! EPIC :D I wanna see more of these bro.

[jamesbannon100]

742 people have no ears.

[CirrusCX]

Ohhhh my LORD :) Its a PIANO GOLD :P

Best regards from Poland

[ShootaFodder]

Where's the remix? I saw it ages ago, but i can't find it again. It's not on your myspace! :(

[wtficantgetausername]

why is there no other videos like this?!? if there are hit me up!!

[MrUbertubers]

Synthesizers are pretty great.

[DaEntertainer450]

I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!! YOU PLAYED WITH EDGAR WINTER IN "FRANKENSTEIN"!!!
