Here's a video I've made today, playing one of my songs on piano and voice.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=But7vNsaJAg

What you don't see: 2 sustain pedals are used (for both synths) and the zoom is done while editing the video, not in realtime.

I'd like to see other people's videos so don't hesitate, I'll take a look ;)

I liked it - you remind me of Steve Hogarth who now sings for Marillion.
Left you good feedback. - goodluck with your music.

Thanks ;)

But I can't see the video response :?

I see that:
"You have video responses that require your approval. View pending video responses."

And when I click to see it:
"You have no video responses that need to be approved at this time."

:?

I'll try again tonight, now I have a few things to do!

Hi,

I have many videos... but all very personal awaiting a profitable authorized sex life documentary. :-D 8)

I'm thinking of doing some "YouTube" home quality video ones about music compsing, impro and production, and my passions, cheap and insightfull, but still making my mind...

Would you see it (my vids) passionatly?
(guess you would... - but I don't want you to see it passionatly - I want you to WANT to see it passionatly ;-) ).


About the video here:

Lesson #1, don't play "too fast" in a piano if it is fast enough that sustained notes muffle others and only gives pleasure to vision gifted deaf people... to name an idea.. or the other way around, don't do it too dry - even if it's to blame on the ROMple sound.


By the way, allow me to add a paranthesis:

What would you like to see ME doing in a music teatching HOME video? something you could learn in some minutes? what? Tks.

And back on topic...

About the video:

Nice.
The too close mic makes it hard to undestand the words. :-) Dont't worry, I do it all the time, but rather to prevent people from understanding my "awsome" singing voice.

Still, your voice, even if I can't say what it says, sounds melodical and pleasantely nice.

Nice piano playing BTW, a bit non-standard but efective... but that not that nice piano sound to me.. ergh... :-p would sound great with drums and bass though, it's has a popish piano EQ piano thing to it and might stick great in a mix.

The last part is "speedy" but would get me to say "use sustain and both hands" :-D, you can be smoother... and what's that part doing there anyway?

I'm assuming you were very nervous, most seem to be, wereas I'm usually drunk (kidding, but not to far from that... well a litle bit, but nearer than most)... and people want to "feel" not to "see"... specially because most WONT see when you play.

But... commenting on... Left hand ok, since it's just doing just bass, right hand should be "holding a hot big potatoe" though, it's doing a heavy punch, your keyboard is not sensing it... but others will... and will ruin the "mix"... :-p

The intro is very cool, but... again... why? (as in, what's it doing there?) ;-)

Overall, what most impressed with the sound proofing of the room. :-)

And of course, the amazing melody of your song, not necessarily needing neither the intro nor the long tail ending... it's very good without you trying to impress us long mailhood organ lenghted blessed... and some better understoodable vocals would help more to get the mood you're trying to convey...

And remember, the better I think you are, the most demanding I'll sound.
Also remember I never mentioned any lenght of any organ related to you.

Kind Regards,
AMR

Absolutely GREAT! except for the middle/last part..(at that point I loose interest it should end @ 3:40 or a bit later or add more lyrics or divide into 2 tracks) as for your voice try to be more expressive I notice you sing too soft and therefore your voice could sound better (you hold back squeezing your voice). Decrease mic level increase your voice volume.... but then maybe you intended it like this :D I'm glad you did not use too much FX on your voice... Your voice should sound good without FX! Melody etc: 7/10.

Eagerly awaiting more stuff!

Ouch... my answer to AMR and LeoDav has disappeared!

So I just say thank you for your comments!

The "showing off" part at the end was just added to say "f*** off" to people I was arguing with on a non-musical website.
