Boards of Canada ~ Roygbiv (for piano)

[TheCycadsAreAudible]

hell fell over

[theFriendlyHughes]

I'm trying to make sure I don't listen to this song TOO often cause I don't want it to lose its magic! It's just so good, though!!

[CubistKing1906]

very cool work dude.

[cazzogiapponese]

kooooooolll

[dimebox23]

I think the detuned sound is exactly what Boards would want when covering this jam on piano. Nice vid!

[Magikawp]

Dude, your D key sound like it's a fucking A#, that's, REEEEAALLY flat

[Deloreansyk]

@jose123001 You're welcome!

[ap1027]

[00005153]

Sorry to say, but you're missing one phrase of the high melody. Great work otherwise! I learned damn near all of it from this video.

[TheDreadkev]

[calcasdasd]

[JDB808]

Dude, if you can't stand notes that are slightly out of tune, then how can you stand Boards of Canada.

Not really saying this to anyone I know of, cause I don't feel like reading 6 pages of comments, but

just sayin'.

[dannydemanny]

You really need a moustach to go with that beard, but other than that very, very cool.

[striderkyo]

Your piano is way out of tune! I don't think the band would want it any other way. Good stuff.

[ethankoenig]

Excellently done! At first I was like, "Whoa low note! Then I recognized that it was just out of tune" - and then I read your pop up about the out of tune piano! Ha! I Love BOC also! Looking forward to Royksopp coming to my town!

[mishmoshable]

holly shit thats terrific! i thought about playing that and i tried a bit but this is the whole bang! sick!

[pdude1911]

Nicely done! Great song indeed, the only thing I don't like about the original is the "hey!"-shouts by some kid.

[freeviber]

@annib00 awesome!!! lol its a complete masterpiece now :)

[frankierolover13]

lol at the end

[sparkstron73]

really nice track and you done it justice mate, goofy ending made me laugh;)

now do the theme from cheers "making your way in the world today" hehe;)

[SuparmanBinBatman]

I, too, love Boards of Canada! Well played.

[antiemo666777]

That is so badass dude good job for sure

[Deloreansyk]

@antiemo666777 Thanks!

[panderohit]

Amazing. Well done. Great song.

[EveRbLssD]

Fantastic post man! I'm jealous of your musical ability.

[LobarRobotic]

this is really cool, pity about the out of tune piano, but otherwise it sounds really good, i wish i could play piano.

[gpo746]

Good effort! Just need a beatboxer in the background to help it along!

[Doctorbarber2]

Great

[mosilflutil10]

one of my all time fav pieces of music

[funkymattman]

I think it's great that u'r piano is slightly out of tune! U have brightened up my day man! I love u'r video! U r a great musician man!

[blueday14]

I LOVE IT

[TheSwiftDecline]

Wow.

Just... wow.

Awesome performance. You rock above and beyond.

Thanks for posting this :)

[Ute2091]

Brilliant THX



[x33Hannah33x]

love this!

[abcbamz17]

hell yeah bro, this is chill as fk

[MrEldrakulya]

Nice one Del

[akselKH88]

You Sir are a genius.

[hyperlexic2]

since when did BoC carefully 'tune' their music? their music is so good BECAUSE of its imperfections. i love this. rock the hell on

[frugward86]

Yeah, I can somehow tell its a fault with the piano. Because you seem so natural when your playing the rest of the piece. Could you please upload a keyboard version or something. BTW I subbed

[BlackmoonUK]

The out-of-tune-ness of the pianoforte makes this video. I think it's great.

[joha444]

thats really good, but TUTORIAL!!! please!!

[infrabout]

Has anyone noticed how out of tune many of BOC's recordings are, the magic's in the naivety.

[msalami1]

@infrabout :P

[SubliminalPeni]

shave the neckbeard lol

[x33Hannah33x]

I think this sounds amazing.

[SnuffyWuffles]

awesome! Great adaptation...really shows off the nuance of the song!!! Thanks for posting.

[AcTNBumpChannel]

Just plain kick-ass. 

[iplayyrunescape]

sounds better with your untuned piano to me haha

[88Cortex]

Hey, perfect! I like it very much. No mistakes and a nice initiative to play BoC tunes on the piano.

[CarlyPacifici]

fucking amazing

[mmmmmarci]

holy fuck this is great but yes PLEASE TUNE IT because it would be MIND-BLOWING then.

[djteq9]

wow me likey

[Appollonya1]

Et bien, Bravo! Jolie performance...

[uprightouch]

awesome dude, love this track. god knows how you worked it out. :)

[bafagu2]

sounds awesome! how about a tutorial? cant really see the keys.

[stfn314]

I love how you stop at the end and then blurt out "I love Boards of Canada." Hahaha. Awesome song, nice cover, and funny sh*t man!

[lexx00]

@stfn314

Damn! I read this first! This should be flagged as a spoiler!

[Drillogik]

thank you so much

[neutrongarbage]

LOL@the end of this video.

I think the last note you hit was off, and yeah - tune that piano up!!! Nice job, though!

[Jabberwockee]

Your piano is out of tune. Nice job anyway.

[jaffacakesarenice]

How come when you play E to D at the beginning, it sounds a Major 7th? Surely the piano can't be that out of tune!

[JackETProductions]

This is great, could you tell me what chords you a playing?

[thesublimesupine]

Jesus man, tune your piano ! Sounds like a honky tonk !!

[stopandtakeabreak]

STELLAR MAN! I'm learning that! Super Job!

[JimmyDiggs87]

fucking a-maz-ing! seriously, beautiful work.

[timmythepierate]

tight!

[MrSeansilasify]

Good Job man! no one is perfect so just ignore the bad comments!

[mamzellebellamy]

C'est... Impressionnant. Tu t'es occupé toi même de l'arrangement ?

[Emi212]

The baseline part could use a little work, but like you said I think it's just 'cause your piano is out of tune. Other than that this is beautiful! Roygbiv has got to be my favorite song by BoC.

And I cracked up at your shout out at the end. XDDD

[KrisdashPaul]

tune that beast yo

good tune though ^_^

[ninjamaritz]

I love what you done dude, but you missed out the sexiest bit of the high melody, i.e. the 'higher' second end to the melody. Da-da-DA, DA, DA-DA-DA da DA da. ;)

Do it again !! :D

Seriously though I can't criticise the piece, it's a great addition to all the BoC fan media out there. Roygbiv is probably one of my all time fave tunes.

[johnnyjohn2005]

Yes yes yes! i love this!! MORE thank u!

[LubricatedBeat]

I think it's great detuned. B.o.c. detunes so many of their synths and chords soooo fuck off everyone who's complaining :)

[JyotiMishra]

This is genius. You are amazing. <3

[Azure807]

Sounds really cool. I think the out of tune piano adds to it. Boards themselves might well agree.

[typeanoise]

Wow, you're a dork.

[zero33AD]

You know all these people saying the piano is out of tune maybe havent even heard the original track. I think the out of tune-ness is perfectly in keeping with BOC's style!

[LemonCircuits]

Ending totally made my day.

[beckandradiohead]

Great!!

[steevbishop]

Great finish.

[vexeel]

Actually, I do like how it sounds when it's slightly out of tune. I love this piano version.

[Mannex17]

Chords are Asus2, Bsus2, G, D/A, Asus2, G, Bminor?

[Xskull222]

the last part was the greatest. 5 stars

[carrion4891]

looks like it could do with 3 hands playing the piano.

[goonerballs]

whats with all the good ratings? hes hitting a lot of the wrong notes.. or else his piano is seriously out of tune

[Deloreansyk]

Yes, my piano is out of tune. No, I didn't hit a lot of wrong notes; the sustain pedal may be throwing you off.

[goonerballs]

sure... the sustain pedal... youre only lying to yourself buddy

[taylorkaplan]

@goonerballs Gee... you seem like a nice guy.

[goonerballs]

haha, thanks.. I try. but he's not going to get better if people tell him it was well done when it wasnt..

[Deloreansyk]

I'm not lying to myself. My piano is old, and the sustain pedal doesn't mute all that well anymore. Listen to the notes I play. If you can do it better, than by all means, please make a video of it.

[Kazz10000]

@Deloreansyk Bro, i like your spirit :)

Keep up the good work.

The only way is up!

[Jazzman303]

@Deloreansyk Hey bud. I can tell your piano is out of tune. Especially the Low D. But it's a damn good transcription. It has taken me a while to just get that left hand independence that you so effortlessly have. Don't listen to Mr. Goonerballs. He doesn't do shit. Im just happy you put up a video up where I can see your hands. I think I have most of the same voicings. Thanks.

[Deloreansyk]

@Jazzman303 Awesome! Thanks!

[Teebonesy]

@goonerballs "when it wasn't"?? What the hell? The piano's out of tune, so that means his playing is crap? I've heard plenty of attempts at covers and arrangements of roygbiv, one of my favorite songs. This is the only guy who really gets it and seems to connect with the song. By far the best I've ever seen, in spite of an out-of-tune piano. Deloreansyk, just record a full-length version on a tuned piano, and I'll pay you for it.

[goonerballs]

@Teebonesy Hey, buddy, Fuck off. Alls i'm saying is if you have piano so badly out of tune, why record it and post on youtube and not expect people to critisize it?

[other6people]

olson is quite possibly my favorite of all time. I cant even describe how much that song means to me.

[Wex1117]

That was awesome man, but that low D is killing me!

[dernetteeddy88]

noice!

[EthanFilms]

YOu KnOW WhaT?!! This video deserves to be posted as a link on Facebook. Right now. I'm gonna do it. Now. Because you've done that well of a job.

[autumnzone1]

you play pretty good for a beatnik.

[xpez]

GREAT!!!

[intertubers]

haha cool. you nailed the summery, breezy bit but there are more nostalgic, warm chords and harmonies on the original that you have missed.

[EthanFilms]

Could you feel that nostalgia too? I don't know what, but it reminds me of something....

[rainbowsod]

The world is full of talented people like this- musicians, artists, actors, etc. yet for whatever reason, these are the hardest fields to survive in. The planet would rather us work the 9-5 monkey jobs instead of utilizing this talent. Sure, many people do this for a living, but why are there so many obstacles in the way for those who want to break into it?

[themitchies]

@rainbowsod because mainstream record companies push for a certain mediocre sound to feed to mainstream cattle.

[clipside2]

which they have created

[Partyywizard]

to weed out the real talent?

nah that couldn't be true.. there are far too many bad artists out there ;P

[EthanFilms]

I cant find awesome music like this on the radio! All it is is "lets grind" or "i wanna do you" type shit. i have to scour the web for the good stuff like THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[petrkinsky]

try soma fm, it´s the best selection of internet radios - especially groove salad rules

[EthanFilms]

Groove Salad? Is that like...acid jazz?

[sherbetheadmusic]

Well done, sir.

[rainbowsod]

you. my friend, are an absolute genius. I havwe no idea how you are able to do this. God gave you something special. I hope you're using it in some capacity in your daily life as a living. Do not waste this rare talent.

[Deloreansyk]

Thank you, I really appreciate your kind words very much. I'll keep doing what I do!

[rainbowsod]

it's absolutely un-fucking believable that someone can do this

this guy is playing one melody on his left hand and another on his right hand

I call people like this a 'genius'

normal people just can't do what this guy is doing

[cassiusitsover]

Agreed

My brain can hardly work just thinking about how hard that would be!

but the end bit made me jump:(

[jeneverbes]

:) good!!

[cuntdork]

Wow, this actually sounds really good on piano. A lot better than I was expecting.

[powelldinho]

Beards are so IDM.

[TheOrb14]

fucking nerd

[66hoopick66]

Excellent rendition of this nostalgic classic, forget tuning the piano, have a shave.

[TheOrb14]

i ♥ the boards of canada

[Drezgality]

and other part of theme you forgot !!!

[Deloreansyk]

I have only so many fingers.

[Drezgality]

next time, play on better piano !

[bigollameo]

Damn!!!!

Amazing rendition, man. Boards of Canada would be quite proud!

[freeviber]

this is brilliant! just needs the little "hey"'s  :)

[lotusblooms2]

lol at the end

[THkaas]

i used to have a piano that sounded as crappy as this one, my parents sold it :( i want it back :( :( well great vid man :)

[SteelRocker]

can't wait to try that

[Assasin234]

please re-do this because it is amazing. you just need to tune that piano

[ctsamurai]

Agree, the piano tuning really diminishes this performance. If you really want to go all out, use a better microphone than the one on the camera.

[subrec90]

amazing, i wouldnt have even attempted it!

[Mushtaco]

damn this is like a new way to hear my favorite song and still love it

[AlienAqtor]

Great, nice interpretation for an astonishing song...

[rayrayskimps]

that was pretty cool!

[homePicShow]

I love you for sharing this!

[NarcissistsDie]

Christ, that piano needs tuning.

[Geilheid]

hahahah

ur funny dude

[MorningCigarette]

BoC <3

Your version ' Best

[Doctorbarber2]

Good job but what the hell was that about in the end

[ruscello490]

Excellent job, pathetic stunt at the end

[schwixol]

brilliant

[sheatheman]

good ending. good job.

the sound quality makes it sound like you are playing an E instead of a D on the lowest note of the bass line. you know when it goes from the E all the way down do the D an octave + 1 step away.

i was watching you hit the D and my computer was seriously playing an E. i had to put on headphones to hear it. i was so confused.

[darin6]

Hey - I love Boards of Canada too. Great job.

[solarisocean]

I can't believe you ruined the musical moment and butchered the song by doint that at the end

[wolverine005]

Diddums.

[GoogleVideoAlexJones]

nice!

[userfriendly06]

message me if you want the mp3 to this. I can't post the url here.

[Paccers]

Brilliant! I really want it as a mp3.

[guja101010]

y'all are too critical....this is awesome...the out-of-tune piano is a nice effect...

[bennynewqs]

i want an mp3!

[drawingmaniac21]

Good lord. That piano needs to be tuned.. desperately.

[mjomark]

tune that piano! (otherwise I like the idea).

[MorningCigarette]

Cool men ! I like

[RuudVanPistolrooy]

That's very cool I wonder if the BoC guys have heard it.

I think you should consider re-recording it properly. A you tube video, camera mic and a not so great piano (sorry) don't do the piece or your interpretation of it justice :)

[manachineu]

Il y a une fausse note au tout debut. Mais tres belle prestation tout de meme.
