How do you come up with these kinds of videos?

I think Mark Rober can turn this into a really good one! He has a robot piano but He's in US tho.
Run the piano through a variac, so at least it's isolated... still terrifying, but isolated.
@@OriginalCircuit NO, DO NOT run this through any kind of isolation. Running this through isolation prevents the GFCI/RCD from triggering and saving your life. Isolation is the last thing this thing needs. Isolation also has zero benefits to this project.
I feel like as an extra precaution if you were going to use a normal piano, which is out of wood, I would say pre-treat the wood before putting anything that could cause a fire in it, like either do one of the Japanese methods I have seen which involves treating the wood with a coating that makes a layer of glass that makes the wood pretty hard to burn, or pre-burn it so it is blackened so it also has a harder time igniting and burning, if possible do both.
HAAA HA HA! This is awesome! Thanks for including me in the design, although I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING! :D
First megdi pegdi
I don't know if anyone would accept responsibility for a madness of this scale, lol

was the dr. Livsey impresion on purpose or no?
Even Electroboom got out crazied
As an electrical engineer, seeing those resistors glow red was terrifying
I thought that was a feature!
If you've never made a resistor (or other component) smoke,are you really an EE though? Putting the magic smoke back in is the hard part.
if it glows, it means its on!
All resistors (including the metal within any other component) are light bulbs if you drive them hard enough.
I used to be a resistor, but the cops yelled at me to stop resisting and put me on the ice. I'm a superconductor now.
Matthias: "like, should I worry about it?"
ElectroBOOM: "yes, you should!" *cue maniacal laughter*
Lol

I'm working on a tesla coil piano that will play the notes through electric arcs. This was just to clear the piano from strings cus we won't need them. But it ended up looking 3x cooler than I expected. Also, when I took the thumbnail, three strings snapped. In case you wondered what actually happened with the string damage
Jesus, what chaos.
Crazy cool work my dude. I love every one of your videos.
im glad u included electroboom. He's the craziest but funniest guy I had ever watched. Also I love ur vids. its satisfying to watch.
What if you did piano with leds that light up when you play? I think that would look cool. 🙂
I can't wait to see your Tesla Coil Piano in action. I am just learning to make my first few coils so I might learn along with you 🙂
Beautifully terrifying!!!
Found the next thing to add to your one-man-band, eh? Vulo's gonna love it!
I agree
Don't get any ideas.
Hahaha I knew you would love this!
Ohi didn't expect to see you here

I see it on the result, remembers me about the electric guitar.

I'm horrible with names. I introduced this video to someone by saying "crazy Swedish piano guy worked with crazy Persian electric guy."
@@evanrudibaugh8772i mean, if someone reccomended me video by saying this, i would 100% watch it.
Wasn't ever expecting this collaboration, I am all for it.
Me too
@Nexodus That image is my profile pic on some websites XDD
Also, I want more from these two!
Yeah this is collab of the year
Mehdi has a good competition now. ⚡
I hoped Medhi besides giving advice also reacted to the end result. Could not think otherwise than he should like this and wished he did this by himself.
The Tampa Bay Lightning hockey team always has a piano in stadium at the games that is played live to hype the crowd up. This piano fits their theme 1000%
18:08 Brings back the electric guitar shock
I have never seen a resistor glow like that, and something about it happening twice and being completely unaddressed both times is truly part of the magic of these videos.
When the key is stuck the capacitor doesn't charge so the charging current constantly flows through the resistor instead of stopping when the capacitor is charged. The boring fix would be bigger resistors or less charging current. The slightly more exciting fix is to just solder as far away from the board as you can, so they still glow red hot but it doesn't catch the wood on fire.
I bet electroboom calculated they would get a bit hot and that's why he said not to touch them, but he didn't account for keys getting stuck
as if it wasn't "thrilling" enough
I've only seen glowing like that from my (solid steel dummy fuse) in my car after i kicked my wiring harness and 500amps went through my glovebox light wiring
Have you ever seen a ceramic cooktop? Thats bascially a resistor glowing.. or looked into a hairdryer to see the red wire? Also resistors.
Edit: Thanks for pointing out the typo 🤦
@@ReMixRoudy Resistors I think you mean.
if you listen closely, you can actually hear that the sparks are making their own pitches and music actually sorta matching with the notes he plays
If I had to guess it's probably something to do with the length of the strings.
frequency is inversly propotional to length that is why the sound of sparks vary with the lenght of string
@@GamerChillz this is probably the most accurate, along with the fact that the spark might also vibrate the string. Pretty sure the pitch of the electrical spark itself wouldn't vary in any definable way if my knowledge of electrical physics is right (admittedly fairly limited, as my formal education in it is only basic Uni level. If someone with an actual uni degree in electrical physics or similar disagrees with me, listen to them instead)
I just like the sounding of the sparks in time with the keys. Good observation though!
@@settratheimperishable4093 Hypothetically you can make a circuit that varies pitch based on resistance (which would vary by string length if you hooked the strings up in a certain way). But, that''s pretty certainly not what's happening here (not that I know electronics well enough to be certain).
7:30 when he said "I don't even know how to solder" it was the funniest thing ever as a electronics enthusiast my self I remember when I was learning to solder, I was in my garage and ended up burning my self multiple times with my dads soldering iron.
that was the most out of depth I have ever heard a human being find out they are.
I think the reason your hammers weld together is because you are effectively using them as a switch causing inductive feedback causing a voltage spike high enough to weld the contact points, the solution is to add a diode in reverse bias to the end of your string, however that will clamp your voltage so you need to choose a proper diode that will produce a good enough arc but not weld the contacts.
Thunderstruck is such an appropriate song for this piano! Lol. As an electrical engineer, I got cold sweat from you discharging the caps or plugging the prototype in for the first time. Speaking from experience, I get this hallow feeling in the stomach before I test a prototype that has a chance of catastrophic failure.
All in all, this is a great piano! It actually sounds good in the video despite being hard to hear in real life.
It’s not Thunder Struck, it’s Lightning Strike
As a electronics enthusiast and engineer (but not officially in electronics) I got cold sweat seeing someone work on this particular circuit with the plug seemingly in😅
Especially if it's a first time.
Also I'd hate to work on something with so much "high" voltage capacitors I could touch😂
Hate those on ic's I work on even though they've never zapped me.
And incredibly fitting song indeed, didn't even realize even though the original was playing in my head😂
I love that ElectroBOOM can just reach off to his side and suddenly be armed with a capacitor and means to charge it
He is a madman after all, of course he can.
So his capacitors aren't pre-charged? Tv editing: "Here's one that we prepared earlier..."
And laugh maniacally after saying how dangerous it is.
This is how Mind Electric was meant to be played
That would be awesome to watch at a concert!
Mattias: "But there's one tiny problem."
Me: "The piano is wood and could cause a fire-"
Mattias: "I've never worked with electricity before."
Me: "OH."
For a guy who never did this and that he's fairly good at tackling those subjects. That's a talent
It's the kind of 'OH' you heard from the enemy of John Wick.
"I really thought I've discharged all of them. Now I have" - That is the added bonus of a collab with ElectroBOOM. ;)
Considering you've never soldered before, that was actually a half decent job. Sure it's not pretty but the connections all look good. You can also definitely see your progress.
Now when a wire breaks, you'll be like some of us and get excited because you can easily fix it yourself.
I don't think we can even realize how much work hours, effort went into this, how much frustration and difficulty was overcome, so this is absolutely precious.
Now do a duet with Mehdi and his electric guitar…
BTW, you’ve gotten much better at playing. Loved the Zelda song.
Thank you friend🙏 Zelda was pure nostalgia to learn!

19:39 You can't hear what you're playing? Just turn up the volume. It's an electric piano after all...
Playing that thing in the woods would be a conscious decision of arson...
This has to be the wildest thing you've made yet. I've never felt so nervous for someone I don't know.
Thank you for feeling nervous for me🙏 I was quite nervous myself at times
Now *this* is a collab I absolutely _never_ expected and never knew I needed. Two chaotic engineers together is absolutely amazing! Next up you ought to try and get a hold of Wintergatan, I imagine you two could make some amazing mechanical piano contraption.
that would be so cool!!
Wintergatan has fallen down the Elon hole. There's no saving him.
@@badsamaritan8223 That was like a year ago dude...
@@lx4302 His decision to abandon the MMX was only about 6mos ago. He's done trying to make an instrument. He has fully transitioned into a production mindset. It's not about the MMX anymore, to him. It's about perfection, and he's clearly willing to scrap the entire project, because he doesn't think he can make it perfect.
@@badsamaritan8223 but he still is a musician that wants to experiment with "different" instruments. Yes, he's not sure whether he will eventually build MM3, but he has already built some really creative instruments himself and he won't stop doing that. So I'm not sure on what basis you claim that he can't be saved
I absolutely love the trial and error and problem solving involved in this project. I'm so glad I've been here to watch your journey from essentially the beginning!!
You had an idea, and despite every obstacle and the fact that you had extremely little relevant experience, you went out and did it anyway. Absolutely incredible. You're a true youtube hero
The fact that you're actually taking piano lessons from that piano teacher now is the most adorable and heartwarming thing to see
"It exploded!"
"It's supposed to!"
I really like that the piano teacher is now a regular character in these videos
Missing the piano tech in this one, though 😭

''The sparks... I like seeing sparks... breathtaking, life, bursting before my eyes for just a moment.''
This was very enjoyable to watch. I love seeing the process, and for someone who has never worked with electricity, wow, very impressed with what you did. And you sense of humor or calm demeanor is very engaging.
I can see a future where metal bands start commissioning pianos with Mattias.
Rammstein gets a keyboard that shoots a flame jet whenever a key is pressed.
Dillinger Escape Plan gets a piano with Fibonacci tuning.
Dimmu Borgir gets a piano with razors instead of hammers.
And so on. Only Mattias would be up to the task.
It's always impressive, really. What a joy to watch your new project come to life :D
Military gets a piano that coordinates artillery salvos.
Physics department gets a piano with lasers instead of strings, that vibrate the air according to frequency needed (The piano villan might go blind after this)
@@mechadrake assume the mathematician gets a piano
@@U20E0 assume the mathematician gets a piano had me ROLLING
I can see Jordan Rudess getting some insane combination piano/pedal steel guitar, including the ability to change dynamics on sustained piano notes like you can do with a guitar's volume pedal.
Golden ratio tuning would be about minor sixths between every note
Hearing you play the Wii Sports theme while being inches away from death was the most morbidly funny thing I’ve seen. You deserve a lot of respect for taking a crazy idea and executing it to completion (without executing yourself😅).
15:03 is the timestamp
It's the Mii Maker theme.
This is the most ingenious and beautiful thing I have seen lately! You are a legend, my friend. All piano concerts should be done like that from now on! Haha

As an Electrical Engineer I admire both your level of cringe around high voltages and your level of insanity!! That's something I thought only I would be mad enough to make! Those circuit boards were beautiful, amazing job all around.
my grandpa is a master electrical engineer for many many decades at this point and extremely anal about occupational safety, and this would probably make him lose it lmfao
One improvement to make is to have a gap under the resistors for better heat disipation.
I love how in the beginning of the video he was holding the hammer with a wooden handle with a pliers 🤣
I like how anyone who has remotely any skill with electronics is somewhat into the happy farm already
Creativity is only two steps from maddness and you nailed it sir.

I was so happy to hear the other guy say that at 7:47
It actually feels like the piano is tap dancing ngl 🤣🤣🤣🤌🤌🤌
Try putting the sparking bits in a glass case to muffle the snaps. Also, you can use hard rubber for the keys to eliminate need for gloves.
Suggestion: put some plexiglass or other clear material as a casing around the hammers and strings, so A, its less likely to shock you, and B, it will muffle some of the pop sound while still letting you see the sparks. You could even try putting a colored material to see if you can make the flash different colors.
@@ianvisser7899 You're unlikely to get that type of glass in a large enough pane to cover the whole piano, but it's possible to pilfer the glass from a few dozen welding masks and tesselate them in some fun patterns with silicone to fuse 'em together. Think of it like medieval glasswork- back in the day, glaziers couldn't get consistent large panes like we do nowadays, so they made smaller 'blobs' of glass and connected them with lead lines.
It might also save your life if one of the strings gets damaged enough to break. Those strings are under an insane amount of tension and could cause a lot of damage if they release in the direction of you
I'm not sure, but I think the flashes would damage the plexiglass, and eventually it wouldn't be clear anymore
@@fableagain Yeah, the sparks would probably start melting the plastic slowly but surely
@@MrCh0o If not that, the fumes and dust will stick to the glass.
The most surprising collab ever, never knew I needed it so much. Thank you, very cool.
I was just as suprised when electroboom answered my mail. Thank you🙏🙏
Next step has to be a collab with "i did a thing". They both have the same reckless disregard for their own safety and sanity
@@Mattiaskrantz He probably just didn't want you to get yourself electrocuted.
@@ircubic I mean mattias was pretty safe but i did a thing would literally put his face in the sparks
The fumes from soldering are actually just tree sap.
Or vaporised metal.
Depends on the brand.
It's both beautiful and terrifying at the same time.
First we had ElectroBOOM's electric guitar, now we have an electric piano, next we need some kind of electric percussion and then we've got a whole band. The name of the band should definitely be ACDC, or because of the full bridge rectifier, maybe just DCDC
definitely DCDC. can't name it ACDC or someone's gonna get to know a few lawyers
Actually, the full bridge rectifier turns AC into DC. So AC/DC is actually appropriate, although keep in mind the lawyer thing lol.
yea the whole thing about lawyers is they don't care that it makes sense really :(
Electric mayhem
what about jazz that can shot spark?
I think it's really really awesome that electroboom helped with this. He's awesome and so are you!
Electroboom warned me about this problem. However, during the hundreds of hits on the prototype the hammer never fused with the string even though I used the actual piano strings on it. That’s why I was so surprised by it doing it on the piano. But I guess it has something to do with either the strings not being under tension on the model or that the hammer action on this piano doesn’t have the same action/bounce as the action on this piano
(Really love when Tubers show a paragraph of important detail in mess than a microsecond.
This is just becoming a straight-up engineering channel and I'm absolutely loving it
When you change your Major from Music to Electrical Engineering half way through….
It always was.
Mattias. I just discovered your channel. And I wanted to let you know: “Actually now when I think about- no. Why start thinking now?” Is my new life motto.
lol yeah why start thinking now you already so deep down that rabbit hole
This is spectacularly insane! The world would be such a dull place without people like this and their ideas!
I would love to see this done with an electric pickup if possible as well to help with bringing more of the piano sound out versus the spark sound, you would also be able to play more with sound effects and make some pretty cool song and light shows simultaneously!
This man has ONE gimmick and freaking never stops amazing me. Everytime you upload something new I always have to watch cause i already know it's going to be time well spent.

I know right.
Sure better than me as a kid and the last part better than my prototypes on Chinese perfboards at times😂
Yeah the part where he soldered everything except the wire and the solder was in one big blob refusing to stick was so relatable. Only thing missing is melting the components with your soldering iron because the goddamn solder won't stick.
Source: I suck at soldering. Especially piezo speakers, DC power connectors, constan wire and some other stuff
But he used so muuuuuuuch solder!!!
Yeah I also loved the ethics:)
A waste of time and a waste of resources just for a herd of ignorant a$$holes with the attention threshold and the environmental awareness of a housefly (That is usually the TikTok niveau) ... just to make a buck of it. To round that up: why not visit the landfill in Africa, where all this waste will end up? This will possibly sponsored by Henkel? ... Naaaah, I guess not:)
Ethics are a waste of time, we're all gonna die anyway
I feel like that teacher is both intrigued and terrified of you being her student XD but she seems to be a sweetheart for being excited to see your projects
It’s shocking how well you can solder with just a little practice. Great job with all of your creations. This one looks sweet! ✨✅✨You’re Awesome!

Indeed, especially very old, dry wood coated with varnish
Ive welded over plywood and 2x4s alot. they dont catch on fire until there is a high concentrarion of sparks hitting one area over and over for a good while, like itll start smoking and shit first. That being said, if you played a chord in repitition, it could definitly catch on fire lol
fortunately, the wood was thick enough and the wood fibers weren't fraying to actually catch a spark. sparks dont carry enough heat long enough to light solid wood on fire. need kindling of some sort (think of wood shavings). constant electricity through wood on the other hand....
well they do.... just not in your favor lol
Man, you are so persistent. I'm always amazed how you always seem to deliver on an idea, when others might just say "good enough"
Thanks for including the titles for the pieces
When a resistor starts glowing, it means that the resistor is heating up due to the resistor either have too much voltage running through the wire connected to it or too low of a resistance on the resistor.
the amount of anxiety this video gave me is unreal, but it's such a cool piano and I'm glad you were able to make it fairly safely!
I agree 100% hahah. I’m not sure if it was very safely 😅 Thank you!
At least @Electroboom is there to help because he will make sure no one will die, but there will be pain.
Now for Tchaikovsky.
His musical rage consumes all.
Or, hear me out, cannon piano.
Watching the progression of your experience was both wholesome and hilarious
The percussion from the sparks was a really cool addition.
I wish you could hear them IRL haha. The peaks of the audio gets so limited here. I was seriously suprised how loud it was, it was really like having fireworks pop just in front of you!
18:15 Yeah, it's allways a smart idea to blow air at a glowing hot thing, thats exactly how you start a fire :D :D :D :D
"i mean, now i have" 16:22 is such a vibe when working with electricity. who doesnt love a good remote breaker shutoff
"Actually, now when I think about... no why start thinking now."
It’s the effort that’s put out in these videos… how do you do this without dying
first ask the craziest person in that subject you know on how to do it and then ask someone who is still sane and let him do the major calculations for you. the first one you just asked the questions to know what you should be extremly carefull about and how to not do it if the other person wants to do it in another way.

I love you man :D
Ever been hit by a super energized partical? Those red orbs flying from that piano can be deadly. No circut needed, a properly placed hit can ruin your day in an instant, without your being anywhere near the arc range.
Love this project. It looks like a ton of fun to play!
10:31 The very visible progress from the first to the last soldering point is just 👌👌 sooooooo satisfying.
indeed , totally looked pro at the end
when doing a thing, you slowly figure it out in progress
19:04 rhythm is really brought out here. It's a percussion instrument at the same time almost. It adds in the same way tap dancing does.
Pianos are classified as a percussion instrument due to the hammer action. Even though it uses strings, it isn't a string instrument because the strings are hit, not plucked or strummed. Same reason why brass bells are percussion instruments and not part of the brass family, despite being made of brass.
@@cheeseboy847 It depends on the way pianos are being applied. Generally, pianos have more of a hand in complex, solo repertoire the way other string instruments do - but in different circumstances when they are used to create a background environment, they definitely are.
@@laurynk4209 I can see what you mean. It could be both due to it resembling a harp or lyre, but one played with percussive tools.
you did an amazing job i cannot belive you did this its so cool!
I think this device would be excellent for combating mosquitoes at night. They would be drawn to the light and get instantly barbecued.
You need to make an album. Mattias Krantz and his electric piano, featuring such pieces as "Electric Blue Danube", "Total Eclipse of the Spark", "Theme to The Legend of BZZZelda", and the immortal classic, "Current Flows in You". The sales would be shocking.
