  • Also you can make your own guitar FX pedals, bend a TV to turn it into an oscilloscope, create unusual effects on a digital stills or video camera the possibilities are absolutely endless. And the result is not where the joy lies, it's the process.

  • I'm currently making a documentary about circuit bending and I have found that circuit bending isn't about music. You can make music with it but the fun of circuit bending comes from the lack of responsibility on your behalf. There is something extremely satisfying about ripping apart something stupid and useless to make something silly/scary and useless. I have met people who bend analog video mixing desks to create awesome, audio sensitive visuals.

  • thats fine if you dont enjoy it...BUT why do people enjoy metal or scremo music? some people find that annoying. (i dont but hey) its alllllllllllll about taste my friend. you cant go knocking someones style of music because YOU dont like it.

  • The sound of geese has been on fucking amazing records as supplementary sounds to give a sonic pallet depth,In my case,I don't like 90%of what comes out of circuit bending, the last 10% for me is a texture i can use along with more conventional music,to add some flavor. For people who have been writing and making music for years and are tired of knowing that they are doing, love the randomness circuit bending because they have very little direction and control over its end results.

  • In that sense, it has its place. And rightfully so.If you don't get it, don't listen, no need to tell the world you think its bs.

  • some people want to experiment & sometimes it's noisy.

    go watch some TV if you prefer to buy what they are selling.

  • i dont circuit bend I hack this stuff and use it for other things like the toy megaphones on here im gonna mod mine so it can accept the output from my mp3 player and im gonna add an external speaker jack and an on off switch, i might add another jack hooked to the mic so i can make my music sound weird. im not expecting a response to this comment by the owner b/c of what he said in the description but if you like that i dont circuit bend and only hack then you can comment back if u want

  • your retarded

  • yeah... its seems like you got all the crazy people all stirred up with that video. I agree with you.

  • if you don't understand or accept anything, it doesn't mean, that people enjoying it are high. And it definitely doesn't mean, that it's pointless, you, miserable piece of shit!

  • Buzz kill man, Buzz kill u_u

  • wow......what an ugly faggot!

  • how can YOU decide what sounds good and bad and what is anooying and not?!

  • the same way i decide what shirts i like or don't like.

    its a matter of opinion, i don't claim to be the chooser for the whole world just for me.

  • ok, that's fine.

    but... I think you REALLY should ask yourself what do you consider that sounds "good" or "bad", and WHY you think it sounds like that.

    I tell you, you may really be loosing a whole new world of music because of prejudice and missinformation. And I say this cuz I used to though pretty similar to you, and now I discover the IGNORANCE in music. The feeling that I DON'T KNOW what sounds "good" OR "BAD", just cuz things are NOT in a certain way. just give it a try.

  • Interestingly, the geese noises were the most compelling part of your video. Expand on that more, and eliminate the rest of it.

  • annoying guy + annoying opinion = annoying video.

  • experimental music is extreme. you're right that they are annoying noise. i used to hate these 'noises' but after years of studying music, i'm totally into it. i just love and respect the beauty of the imperfect things.

  • so you think 82 seconds of your ugly face saying "i don't understand it so i hate it" is better ?

  • shutup

  • ur an asshole man we all like oure own styles of music its not about one anoying noise from a kids instrument go look for things like Aphex Twin he uses thease "Anoying noises" and honestly i think hes fuckin awsome + u look like a total fag U FAIL AT LIFE!

  • "you fail at life!" LOL that was funny

  • lol, well, I saw your reply to your comments on this re: video.... what do you want? youtube hate + youtube hate = youtube hate.

  • go to hell, hippie!

  • Oy U gimpy wanker, Im a UK dance music producer,some fantastic samples come from circuit bent instruments, that bending video is great, v interesting explainig ideas in exploring sound that are creative, and innovative. N U said everyone looks high even the kids, fair play the old guy looks like a right Triphead, but kids, thats just wrong. Stop wasting time making videos that make me want to throw u in a river with bricks on your feet. get a life, get a girlfriend !!!

  • you're a fucking morron!

  • WoW ........Dickhead!!!!!

  • you are fucking GAY

  • you look like a gimp...

  • i remember when you were on the soccer team in highschool....you were really good. HI LOGIC

  • YOU should get into marketing...for pepsi or something.

  • Why is this guy talking so slow?

    Man, this video SUCKS!

  • Your voice is an annoying noise.

  • I bet this guy hasnt got an ounce of creative power

    to him. I think I hate him actually.

  • I agree...Go ahead and hang your self. You suck!

  • "If it made interesting noises that didn't make me want to hang myself, i'd be all for it!"

    Well, we're all for you hanging yourself.

    Stag,

    X

  • Your camera is making an annoying noise, can't believe your life is so vacant that you'd spend the time to make such a crap response to some nerds having fun.

  • Two things

    One is that circuit bent instruments are usually applied to music not just for sole existence. They are often used for sampling and color tones in a lot of IDM. Out of place just looping interferance can get annoying.

    Two you didn't really say much of anything, annoying noises is matter of opinion and if you had to describe the difference between the noise of a piano and the noise of a bent circuit other than with good and bad you would have nothing.

  • If Maroon 5, or Pete Yorn started circuit bending in they're music tomorrow you would run, not walk to you tube and delete this video post. Your a twat, and aggresively mediocre.

  • WOW.. LMFAO.. this fucker said .. WOW.. hahahahaha

    I have to agree to some extent.. i mean toy breaking.. ooppps, i mean circuit bending? wtf.. I know casio's suck , but you dont have to go around breaking all of em people .. this guy is on to something..

    i mean whats next.. breaking you new hd tv and watching the nothing on the screen with a fuckin bowl of popcorn?

  • I agree 100% it sounds like a fuckin robot having an orgasm whatever that sounds like...

  • what a dumb homo

  • how this guy ever found time to get away from jerking off to boy bands long enough to view something on circuitbending, decide that it wasn't for him, film, edit + post a short film declaring such personal opinions is a mystery to me. shouldn't you be folding cargo pants at some mall somewhere dull?

  • Mate !! spot on, that kid has far too much time on his hands

  • Oh no! Suburban white kid thinks something different is just stupid! WHAT CAN WE DO TO IMPRESS SUBURBAN WHITE KID!?!?!

  • you ugly downes syndrome looking cock sucker,didny you know: ugly gimp+cocksuking looser=you!!!!! hahahaha you pathetic waste of oxygen i hope bad shit happens to you for a long time cos you're nothing, you're shit and you always will be you ignorant hick

  • this guy is annoying

  • penis

  • ignorant waste of time

  • Surely circuit bending is alot better way to spend your time then make a video about not liking anoying noises...If we didn't have people experimenting with wires of keyboards ect. we wouldn't have several bands that have influenced and created industrial and techno music, but I guess you wouldn't relize that becuase your probably to busy making dumb ignorant videos about hating what some people are intrested in.

  • god your annoying.

  • This guy gets his annoying energy from all of the really nice feedback.. he has an issue but doesn't know how to deal with it..  man go to hypno therapy or something i'll send you a hug..

  • fuck you

    bending is a fun and creative to make neat sounds

    the only annoying thing im hearing is your voice...

  • get a fucking girlfriend and have her make u some "neat sounds" if u catch my drift ;-)

  • never ever ever ever get into acting. you suck.

  • annoying guy + annoying talking = Annoying video!

    Stop uploading crap like this, "director"!

  • Humans can be annoying too...

  • hahaha wanker

  • let me know when you hang yourself, that'd be a good video.. much better than this one.

  • We should bend your brain cells. Weird things that really make us have fun, indeed.

  • wtf i dont get it

  • how dare you scar the planet with your presence

    your a dick

  • To be quite honest i find the noises from circuit bending more interesting than your voice mate. You, going on about how much you hate circuit bending is one of the most annoying noises I have ever heard in my life. What a waste of server space this video is. You sound like an old man saying how much he can't understand Jimmy Hendrix. Remember, to the ppl of the time Jimmy's guitar was aparently an annoying noise. Act your age :P

  • haha true, but circut bending is still kinda cool

  • I must agree with the high comment. They definitely struck me as experimenting with more than electrons.

  • my thoughts exactly

  • Dude, spot on. I love electronics and pulling shit apart - but come on, these toys sound crap to start and you are makeing them worse? pick up a guitar for christs sakes or do something constructive

  • listen to Venetian snares, - "huge chrome cylinder box unfolding" The entire cd was made using circuit bent sound. its the freshest thing i have heard in the few years. seriously.

  • I agree with you 100%

  • i actually though this was funny just a little aateur tho

    ~C~

  • lol i agree with guy 100% bending is about gay. Midi is crap and it sounds better.

  • These people are idiots

  • dood ur a fag.

  • That was annoying.

  • Come to me and i'll circuit-bend YOU!

  • please stop saying "noises."

    ...those geese? They're cooler then you.

  • Its experimental sound art. There is a philosophy to this stuff. Its about pushing boundarys on what people consider music to be. Its been going on sinse Debussy

  • uh, yea. Who the hell are you again?

  • it says in my state? and please tell me,what state is that?if you dont reply then your a fag

  • Im sorry Sir or Ma'am for upsetting you with that comment. I was really scared. I apologize.

  • i hate those stupid chain letters they scare ppl to where they repost them well they gay,they dont work,and jus plain stupid so my advice is if it scare you just ignore it and dont read it

    p.s. you aint gotta call me sir,ad you aint gotta apologize its cool

  • Okay, I'll remember that they are dont work. Thanks for forgiving me ^-^

  • its np i know they creepy at first

  • This response is so damn funny! I even watch it from time to time. I just can`t believe to took your time filming the different clips and editing them, I guess you even had to write down what to say first... above all, you do all this JUST to say that you think circuit bending is a waste of time.

  • It's just a point of view ...

  • Speaking of annoying noises, have they finished yet?

  • If used tastefully, some of these sounds can really make music interesting. Nine inch nails does this successfully. I preferred listening to the noises more than you and your lame ass video. Its so sad to think how much time you spent making the video. Loser.

  • your mother made an annoying noise last night.

  • I dont understand why you get the pleasure of wearing a stupid Red Geeky Adidas Hat!!! You're in the House and you wear that dumb hat, and when your outside, you dont have it on. COME ON SHELLY!! ...TRUTH HURTS.

  • the only annoying noise ive heard all day is the sound of your pathetic whine.. suck my speak-n-spell shithead!

  • Ugh, I hate it when people respond to a video of something with a video of them just talking and going on and on. You make annoying noises.

  • waste of time

  • awesome. All the time you spent on this 'annoying' response could have been spent doing something productive like masturbating. Keep up the good work.

  • yeah but now with this video out there all the circuit benders have something to masturbate too... you fuckin fagots

  • LOL you have a flat head.

  • Think about how much time you spent to do nothing but shit on a harmless hobby that amuses many and harms no one. Would you prefer benders stop bending and spend their spare time v-logging and shitting on others too?

  • i don't care what they do. i never said that I do.

    all i said was i find the noise that they make annoying.

    that's it.

  • Now uv started readin dis dunt stop. This is so scary. Send this to 5 ova videos in 143 minutes. When ur done press F6 and ur crushes name will appear on the screen in big letters. This is scary cause it actually works. If u break the chain u will have problems with relations p.s for the next five years x-x-x

  • I cant rea dit tho thier are so many mistakes!!! cupercake? and my F6 button fell of what do i do now?

  • right on brother fight the power

  • lmao! stoned ramblings...

  • your face's ugly...

  • doont look in the mirror

  • hahaha

  • wow... real mature

  • I understand that YOU'RE high!

  • You had the time to make a well edited response about your own self indulgence, sad. It's even sadder that I'm commenting on this.  Don't knock it till you tried it.

  • ppl said the same thing that your saying when moog came out with his first Synths but look how those little buggers caught on.

  • Damn right asobernewt!!! this kid is a twat!!! Annoying noises??? Well most music today is made with these so called "annoying noises" Drum and Bass, Trance, Rap, Hip Hop etc... etc...! Unless you listen to music that took some kind of musical skill like Heavy Metal, Jazz, Blues etc... etc...

  • u are wrong he is right

  • fuck talk about annoying? look at you, probaly still living in ur mom basement.

  • You obviously have a mind unable of enjoying the beautiful complexity of acoustics waves and microelectronics... I say those guys really like what theyre into and I wish those guys have some musical skills, so they could fully enjoy this thing.

  • Lol that was funny. I liked the end part... 3/5

  • its just....

    You cant get unexpected noises from

    geeses...

    I think its better to be cruel to a circuit in order to make new/funny/weird sounds/beat/melody than to be cruel to a duck

    check you later

  • you shouldn't waste so much time making annoying videos.

    you seem to be taking it far more seriously than the people that do it. part of the draw is the excessiveness, the raw chaotic ridiculous sounds. its not supposed to sound rational or musical. its about enjoying sounds youve never heard before. go back to listening to your hinder cds now.

  • are you kidding?? this whole video is a huge joke, like most of my videos. it would seem (from your comment) that no one should be able to judge what someone else listens to. so you pretty much refute your own point by trying to insult me by claiming i listen to hinder (whom I do not like).

  • lets remember who insulted who first here.

    its ignorant to judge something you don't understand.

  • hahaha your so right

  • i agree: the "circuit bending" in this video is noise. for the folks featured in this video to say that they've "created" something is like me taking the bun off of a big mac, slapping the insides into a taco shell and calling it my "recipe".....

  • see that isnt true at all. first off, if you don't like noise as a genre, you aren't going to get any of this at all..its about having a fondness for those sounds...and whether or not they are pleasing is completely subjective...secondly, a lot of this stuff is used in more pop oriented music..musicians like beck and mike patton utilize them in much more "musical" ways.

  • i had no idea that such thing existed until i saw this video on youtube. i had heard of mark mothersbaugh. people like mark mothersbaugh are artists. i doubt he'd ever mess with the squelch on a walkie talkie and call it art.....

  • his items sound polished and finished. the video in question's title should read "what is amateur circuit bending, as laid out by nerds with speak and spells taped to the wall." oh well, i'm off to listen to hinder and the frey.

  • i bet you listen to maroon 5 and john mayer. just because something is a bit subversive for you doesn't mean you need to post a shitty video with no valid critiques. that adidas had is awesome. sarcasm intended. you dress poorly and have bad hair. haha. horrible signifier, but it speaks loudly.

  • im guessing you listen to john mayer and maroon 5. just because something is a little subversive doesn't mean you have to post a horrible video with no valid criticisms. adidas baseball hats are awesome. saracasm intended. you dress poorly and have ugly hair. as shallow a signifier that is, it speaks loudly to me.

  • Ok you're cool kid, go back to grammar school.

  • Is your internet name in reference to the Tragiclly Hip???????????????????????????­??????????? One Night In Toronto.

  • ya, i will get right on that . . .

  • while i do not listen to either john mayer or maroon 5 I find it funny that you try to insult me by claiming that i do. kinda refuting your own point there. also just because someone calls something art does not mean it is good either.

  • I don't know if you think your clever or what but refuting isn't a real word and the context that your using the word refute in is distressingly inadequate. I really don't see how someone can or why they would want to "pretty much gather evidence in proving their own point wrong". What you meant to say was "Contradict your own point" and "kinda contradicting your own point" otherwise you look like your just any other american with an English language problem! Only trying to help...

  • That was not much help? sounds more like a remark from an individual trying to look smart?

  • Yeah you're right.

  • Fuck off.

  • you are so sweet

  • someone was offended

  • "why would you enjoy annoying noises?" it's just a case of wether the noises are annoying to a person or not. I find it quite funny to make an alarm clock make rumbly noises while it's just not supposed to do that. Ofcourse it's pretty pointless but it's really just about reïnventing a circuit board and make it do things that it's not supposed to do. Some people enjoy it.

  • you make annoying noises.

    the airplane sounded nice though.

    you also look and sound like my stepsister.

    use the toilet, not your deck.

  • I'm not a big fan of circuit-bending either, but I think I'd rather listen to the geese than you. You probably think yourself sharp and witty, but in reality you end up sounding sound old and crotchety. :/

  • cuz etrain4760 is to cool for school. I mean look at his cap!

  • Yes I also preferred the normal sounds of keyboards. Kudos!

  • UHm, Maybe you should gain a disposition that didnt make you look like a little bitch. Fuck off, grow some gd balls.

  • Wow. Moron.

  • you.

    make.

    me.

    laugh.

  • Now uv started readin dis dunt stop. This is so scary. Send this to 5 ova videos in 143 minutes. When ur done press F6 and ur crushes name will appear on the screen in big letters. This is scary cause it actually works. If u break the chain u will have problems with relations p.s for the next five years x

  • "Yeah, even the ten year-olds." HAHAHA so true.

  • You are Stupid. and Gay.

  • and it would seem you are full of insightful thoughts . . .

  • You dont need insightful thoughts about this video.

  • And it seems you are wasting bandwith and space with this moronic video.

  • But most people like and fully enjoy these annoying noises look at Jon Stewart,Ellen DeGenerate,Gilbert Godfrey,Al Franken,Rosey ODonald they all make wonderful annoying noises that everybody truely loves.

  • Nice Adidas hat you ugly bastard. If you have a one track thought process, I feel sorry for you. Like, OMG your probably one of those little dorks that watched TRL and loves MTV. Because thats what sounds cool right? Just go to the mall where you belong.

  • nope! i hate MTV. and i hate the malls.

  • i thought the same shit now that u said this i dont have 2 make a video blasting them thanks

  • haha. glad to be of service.

  • ditto

  • shut up nerd, go to the mall.

  • thanks for contributing to my next "favorite comments" video!!

  • lmao yeah im pretty sure circuit bending is the nerdiest shit ive ever seeing

  • Man, Your Head Is Annoying, You Fucking Q Tip.

  • i don't have a 'fro. calling me a q-tip then would make sense.

  • your voice is an annoying noise.

  • had to think hard for that one, huh?

  • lol that was funny

  • thanks

  • piss!!

  • this video is so ridiculous

  • You know, I would've preferred coming here and seeing something against it if it WASN'T such a weak argument.

  • oh, so you would have preferred me using statistics to show how circuit bending has ruined countless lives of people across the world; how many eardrums have been ruptured by listening to it; and how many heads have exploded?? something like that?

  • Yeah, except you'd be getting a lot of 0's for those.

  • haha. just checking.

  • But seriously. I think one of the things of circuit bending is the whole "Holy shit, I'm making this thing go completely nuts, let's see what else it can do". I suppose not all of them make GOOD noises, but a few vids show you can get a funky beat going out of something that's normally pretty plain sounding.

  • i do agree
