Agreed, it got super impressive when they were fast firing the different Marios at him and he was barely missing a beat.

That's cool, but where's the rest of Axis of Awesome? Do they not always work together?

iflirtwithanyone [OP](11/01/2015) [-] Check out his channel to. He does some more 4 cord songs and 6 cord songs. Not as funny as with axis but still awesome

fatminion ONLINE (11/01/2015) [-] most popular songs loosely follow harmonic and melodic rules, so if you know the melody you can probably play it just by thinking about it. I dare say 99.9% of music teachers can transcribe any pop melody with 99.9% accuracy. And yeah, once the melody is done, there are some pretty standard ways of choosing which cord you play behind it. And this guy doesn't have to get it in a specific key cuz he's just playing on his harmonium or whatever that thing's called.
TLDR: most accomplished musicians could do this

fatminion ONLINE (11/01/2015) [-] plus he's only doing melody with sometimes a second voice or a chord in the background, so he's totally ignoring the bass/left hand part, which would complicate things a lot. Imagine, for example, the Ghostbuster's theme. The left hand on a piano would the bass line, which is rhythmically different than the melody. So in order to grab that one out of your arse you'd have to think quick about both melodies and play both at once - essentially transcribing 4 voices simultaneously. Doable, but twice as hard as what this dude does.
You know what? Maybe I'll set up a webcam thing and do the same thing he does, but on guitar, just to show you how easy it is for accomplished musicians.

hashtronaut (10/31/2015) [-] I can legit say I promote this dudes music more often than I push my own... it's cool to see his rise though. It started with a reddit post of his 1st music video, which got over a million views overnight, then came the free mixtapes with music videos (Where the lion king one happened at), and now his new album has an animated music video with snoop for an opener and hit #1 in the itunes charts when it dropped.
2nd pre-order i've purchased in my life lol

hashtronaut (10/31/2015) [-] i have a fj mixtape coming in the near future.. i'm not sure what the % would be, but it's on it's way to complete.
but get back on the horse man.. i know how it feels to lose material, my laptop died at the end of last year and it still has like a huge portion of the songs from 2014 trapped in it.
Actually, if you want.. I posted this as an open collab - I got a few people who're playing with it but if you dig it feel free to play with it when you get the rec time.

hashtronaut (10/31/2015) [-] lmao I feel you 100%. And you just reminded me about this song...DFD's talking about a crackhead breaking into his car, but close enough. (this reply wouldn't have taken this long but my internet been slow as texas rap lately n i wanted to pull the lyrics up to not **** up and paraphrase lol)
![DFD - Stereo Jack ft. Ehwhenkeem - [Official Audio] - 8](https://img.youtube.com/vi/MYzLImYGX9g/default.jpg)
Yeah
He took all my albums from '93 'till
Wu-Tang, De La, Hove, Lauryn Hill
Bet he's bumping underground, kings getting trilled
Outkast and Yeezy, man what a steal
Jack both my speakers and all my iPods
So many MP3 that I had to buy five
All adding up to 'bout 500 gigs
Took years to build a music collection that big
He haunts me in my dreams with headphones on
Scratching up CDs and deleting my songs
Then I wake up in cold sweat, just feeling so vexed
Yelling out, " ************ , that isn't yo' **** "
Music is my crack, give me that crack back
Give me my stuff back, I'll buy you a crack sack
How can people in this world be so cold?
When he took my stereo he took a piece of my soul

hashtronaut (10/31/2015) [-] haha yeah I kinda got that struggle - I used to actually have my own spot back in denver which was essentially more studio than home (it was pretty common to have somebody crashed out on all 3 couches in the main room lol) but, well to make a long story short i been on a dirt road in kansas with my disabled grandpa since 2011 because you do what you gotta do for family
He says he doesnt mind the music and **** , but... outta respect I try to not be a nuisance. Like... He goes to bed at 9:30 so i shut off the subwoofer at that point lol
what trips me out though is even though I ended up in rural ass ks where there's more farmers than people who like rap... I still managed to build a lil music team out here. one of them actually lives down the ****** dirt road from me at their uncles haha
btw, just for the hell of it here's one I made w/ a FF9 sample haha

iflirtwithanyone [OP](10/31/2015) [-] You'd be how few people I've found since I moved to Australia that even listen to rap, let alone write anything. Hopefully soon though. I wanna get a small time Gorillaz type thing going, with a group of guys, all animated for videos

hashtronaut (10/31/2015) [-] i'll have to get my buddy Angelis' info for you, i'm having trouble remembering his music name but he's a producer out in Melbourne over there... on some new-age jazz fusion hip-hop type **** ... real down to earth dude too. He goes back to this **** I started a few years ago called Producers United, but I actually ended up leaving it behind because of some internal problems. but that's also all irrelevant lol
Also.. 2 things: 1. fun fact - the guy who used to do the rapping in Gorillaz (the drummer gorilla who got all giant in the sunshine in a bag video) is Del, who is ice cube's cousin haha and 2. if you like that animated kinda stuff you'll probably dig these dudes - sadly, they broke up. but.. there's quite a few music videos out there. )

The group I wanna get going has gotta be out there though. I want fresh voices that don't try to be anyone else. Not even trying to do it all here. The internet is magical. I can search the world for people at this point lol
White Boy Wasted is my favourite of theirs lol. That and Tig Ol' Bitties

Who the **** is 'custom' ...megaman? speaking of, sorry if i'm drowning you in links lol but here's honestly one of my favorite beats i've made... i used a megaman rom on a nes emulator to isolate the melody in the game (cutting out the ****** 8bit drums and such lol) and sampled a few other pieces of the game, like the power buster charging up. It's going to be part of a project i'm doing called Nintendope that's going to have all Nintendo-influenced/sampled beats and the lyrics will be chock full of references to those games. yada yada sorry i talk a lot lol soundcloud.com/auralsex-beats/nes-on-drugs
but for real, thanks man I appreciate that. I've been doing this for a long ****** time and don't have much anything to show for it...so i'm happy to know people dig the **** I still put out.

daemonicdemeanor (11/01/2015) [-] That image bugs me. Electronic music is significantly easier to make that other genres. What I mean by that is anybody, literally anybody, can sit down and make an electronic song in a few hours. It probably won't be very good, but anyone can do it. To make music any other way, you have to spend at least a few months practicing, all the way to 10,000 hours to master an instrument. I don't think people hating on electronic music think it's literally done by the computer, and obviously talent is involved, but not skill. If you are naturally good at writing music, you can learn in 15 minutes how to make a song whereas other musicians require tons of patience to even get to the point they can start writing music.
I've met so many people that thought they were the next deadmau5 or Skrillex because they made a ****** trance beat in Fl Studio. I've written a few songs including 2-4 guitar parts, bass, drums bass and drums I use either a drum machine or Fl studio/something similar and vocals. Recording music costs thousands of dollars, vs. pirating/paying $100 for a program and takes quite a few takes to get it just right vs. the computer adjusting everything perfectly in real time.
Not hating on electronic music, like anything, tons of it is crap and some is really ******* good. Think Mozart, he composed music at three years old or whatever, but he didn't master the piano or anything like that until much later.

daemonicdemeanor (11/01/2015) [-] **daemonicdemeanor used "*roll picture*"**
**daemonicdemeanor rolled image**If you read the whole thing you'd notice I wasn't insulting electronic music.
Just saying it's way more difficult to learn to play music than make it on a computer. Not insulting the talent or finished product. I'm just saying that the people who think it's easy to make aren't saying that because they think a retarded giraffe could do it. It's insulting to a person who has spent decades mastering something and someone who made something on fl studio thinks they put just as much effort into their music. Rappers are the same way. They can be insanely talented but most people could learn to rap like Lil Wayne in an evening. I would do the same thing if someone posted a picture of a person saying ***** 20 times as the "what people think." Vs. someone reading out lyrics written in blood on a napkin in the actual image.
That image just made me picture the edgy rave kid who would always play techno he made through his phone. 4/4 beat, g minor with no changes, no layers and the default pack of samples in fl studio.
