@Satiaraha Jonny himself has stated in a few interviews that he thinks the whole idolisation of guitars is rather ridiculous and that they're just instruments. He enjoys playing them, that's all.

@antongiu I feel bad for saying it because i'm grateful for this video

@JorAtGuitar I did know about Ginette, but it was Rolling Stone the one who said Jonny is the ondes master of our times. about the radio, I meant THE WAY he uses it. of course electronica artists uses radios but it's different... you get me
-
@etejuanete3 Laurendeau is considered to be a master on Ondes Martenot, as well as Ginette Martenot (sister of the inventor) who performed an excellent rendition of the Turangalila symphony by Messiaen. And concerning the radio, well Cage composed a piece for 15? radio receivers (or something along those lines), and seeing that Jonny really knows his composers he was probably well aware of this. Eletronica-artists frequently use radio sounds too.

@JorAtGuitar haha okay name 2 better ondes players. and about the Radio... I'm curious. who else used them before him?
-
@etejuanete3 Well he's not the first to use a radio in a composition, and there are really better Ondes Martenot players than him, but what makes it special is that only a handful of people in the entire world know how to play it :)
-
@JorAtGuitar yeah, he's not just a guitarrist, he's a multi-instrumentalist. he can play Guitar, piano and keyboards, viola, drums, etc and he's the ultimate Ondes Martenot master. hell, he can even play a bloody radio!!! and he's an amazing composer!!

@Artie0293e09 I''m giving you the definition of year 2008 (when this has been actually made): video with no blurring image, no distorted sound and with decent colours as affordable HD cameras will be on the market only in 2 years time and this is not MTV channel.
