  • i went from digital turn table to this??? um someone isnt lablin thier video's right.

  • this is the first time i see this f*** crazy instrument ... i like!

  • what happens if you fall on that

  • You can kill yourself on that. Anyway nice sound.

  • 56 people are deaf.

  • Thats a fucking weird instrument but it sounds soooo peaceful...

    Almost like minecraft music

  • Some one needs to bust out some pretty lights on this. it would sound sooo bad ass.

    (Finally moving by pretty lights)

  • прикольно)

  • Sounds like an evil childhood memory.

  • This person clearly doesn't understand the word 'simple'.

    Either that, or I'd hate to see what he calls a complex tune.

  • this is the most beautiful thing i have ever heard

  • vary nice song :)

  • I'm surprised your hands aren't full of scars. Great job!

  • This song is amazing to jam, I play this and beat the crap outta my bass.

  • @Phospion  cool! I'd love to hear you.. check out the smooth tracks Julian Steele laid over the song, youtube.com/watch?v=kqYo6_8LF-­Y

  • @patrickhadley are you a new age san fransician with a fissure in your butt?

  • Amazing anime OST :D

  • wow. this is amazing!!

  • nice instrument

  • I don't want to be anywhere near that when I trip. Also, great work. It put me in a calm mood, which is what I can't say for most other types of music that strive for the same effect.

  • awesome...

  • EPIC

    

  • Who would dislike this?? Oo

  • I guess this is what C418 used to make the music in Minecraft

  • @alexutz987 I think he may have used the virtual program of the Array mbira by sonic couture

  • @patrickhadley I am so lost what is this thing?

  • @richard2mitchell there's a family of musical instruments known as lamellaphones which means they have a vibrating tine or key that is attached at one end. They're also known as mbiras, kalimbas, likembe and a few others and also tongue drums or slot drums fall into this family. The tines are tuned by adjusting their length. The shorter the tine the higher the pitch. The thickness and width of the tine material also affects the pitch. Wind up music boxes use the same principle

  • How is this instrument called?

  • I´d buy your album

  • @mursu24 it's downloadable at cdbaby, Patrick Hadley and friends, the Array mbira

  • That sounds absolutely gorgeous.

  • You hear about people falling asleep at their keyboard. You don't hear about people who fall asleep using this thing. Why? Because they died!

  • sounds beautiful

  • Bob and Jim's conversation

    Jim

    "hey bob you know I'm real good at the guiter do you play any instruments??"

    Bob

    "ya I play a array mbira and I'm kinda good"

    Jim

    "what the hell is an array mbira!?!?!"

  • Shut up and take my money because I want a CD.

  • Es muy dificil de encontrar estas interpretaciones hay muchas pero muy mal grabadas esta es la mejor que he encontrado

  • @yisraelartorius Gracias. La calidad de grabación es muy porque el tipo de recogida del cable piezoeléctrico se utiliza está conectado directamente a la cámara de video.

  • @patrickhadley excelente aclaracion... donde puedo conseguir un array mbira?

    soy de Chile

    gracias

  • @yisraelartorius Los hago yo, cada uno está hecho a mano, y usted puede pedir uno a mi sitio, thearraymbira punto com

  • bellisimo

  • how does the magic box work!?!?!?!?!

  • @SuperTheJake can't tell you, it's magic *_*

  • loving the....everything.....

  • Comment removed

  • damn people with talent! this is so awesome

  • It seems Knocking on Heaven's door...

  • I don't know why, but this instrument kind of scares me. It's like a finger death trap

  • a good lullaby..great !

  • @peppinodeleo thanks! I've thought about doing a lullaby album for little kids / babies...maybe someday...

  • @patrickhadley it would be great.

  • @patrickhadley Nice!! Gotta be hard to play that kind of instrument.

  • How many women do you pleasure a day?

  • @SCARExTechnology tens of thousands, I'm sure...*_*

  • @patrickhadley heheh, you player...

  • Try and get Nintendo to buy this off you, it'd be really good in a Zelda game.

  • I wish this song never ended! :)

  • Imma learn how to play that to get the bitches.

  • GOD DAMN IT IT'S 1 AM AND I'LL ST-....zzzzz.....

  • sounds just like it should be the theme song for an ocean side town in an old school japanese RPG

    I thoroughly enjoyed it

  • it look's scary, like a torture device. but sounds magical. how is that so? @_@

  • mmm...relax..

  • Wow......awesome

  • wow this thing almost sounds just like a harp if im not mistaken

  • Is'nt that a Kalimba??

  • all i can think is king crimsons lark toungs in aspic part one. someone should do a cocer of it with t this

  • I didn't expect that... Sounds great! 

  • Ok, but what happened if 1 of those steels will broke?? :B

  • am i in heaven or some magical island.... :) great video

  • @0nigahigafan4ever0 it's a magical island where amazing musical instruments are made from street sweeper brushes and old nails *_*

  • I'm jealous

  • Live elevator music!

    Jokes man it was actually awesome.

  • tuning that would suuuuuuck!

  • @LPknives you got that right, 20 to 30 hours but then it stays in tune for many years...

  • @patrickhadley how do you tune that? im corious?

  • @racingdogz the pitch is determined by the length of the tine, higher nores are shorter, lower notes are longer.

  • what is that thing?

  • @dogfightvj Edward scissor hands reincarnated

  • @patrickhadley play enter sandman

  • i would comb my hair with that !

  • Simple. Of course.

  • Is so easy die in this shit!

  • I'd fear for my life if I were to happen to trip in the direction of that instrument.

  • Some reason, reminds me of R.EM.

    This is simply amazing

  • That's why I say, there are so many unknown musicians!!!!!!

  • ive never seen what ever the hell that instrament was before in my life but ut sounded sooo sublime!@!@!@!@!

  • Amazing sound ! Very beautiful melody ! LIKE !

  • Wonderful !!! <3

  • that does not look like a simple song

  • @elcokiyoloko looks are often deceiving... I called it a simple song because it's a basic 5 chord progression which is not hard to learn. The Array mbira looks incredibly complicated but there is an order to it that makes complete sense. With a little practice it is actually "simple" to play basic chord progressions. Melody is harder.

  • @elcokiyoloko Actually, on the contrary, It is simple song, with a simple chord progression. I Don't imagine It'd be all that much different than playing a piano. But good job! That was cool :) I want a magic box too!

  • The best is the title. "Simple"

  • @N3BB3Z4R I say it in awesome sense...

  • Looks like you can cut your finger on that! Or kill someone with it..

  • Giant forks' heads

  • Vip Top

  • Wow, have never seen nor heard this instrument before....What a great sound...

  • i so want one of those

  • This is beautiful...... Does anybody know if there's some way to actually make one of these? That would be an amazing project......

  • @IkerThunder  I'm planning to teach a workshop on how to build your own Array mbira. If you subscribe to my channel you'll be notified when that happens. There may be a set of detailed plans and instructions available sometime in the future too.

  • @patrickhadley Awesome, I'm definitely subscribing..... :D

    Thanks man

  • Cool, this thing records in stereo ?

  • @JacobSijsma there are 2 pickups, one for the R and one for the L sections of the playing field of the instrument, the effect can be mesmerizing!

  • @JacobSijsma there are 2 pickups, one for the R and one for the L sections of the playing field of the instrument, the effect can be mesmerizing!

  • @bestkirmes ahhhh, you're too kind...thanks!

  • I now need this instrument in my possession.

  • very awesome instrument and very awesome playing

  • @acidbath32  Thanks!

  • its like the thing inside the musical box

  • @AkaNomad00paranoid that's exactly right! the tines are bigger and more flexible so it can be played without tearing up your fingers (it's not as dangerous as it looks) and there's a hell of a lot more notes

  • Oh! I have something like this! :D I got it at Green Earth and I think they called it a Finger Piano...Anyhow, this song is really cool and I never knew it could make such a beautiful melody! I'd rather have this instrument than m boring piano =_=
