Please get in contact with Nils Frahm. He is a really talented musician who has a philosophy that every piano has a song it wants to play. i'd love to see what he does with your pianos
All the above!!
I think that a good video title and idea would be: I invited a viewer who coincidentally also happens to be a pianist to play on my modified pianos
You should totally hire a pro pianist! I’d love to see their reaction 😂
Hire a composer to compose a piece specifically for that instrument (and then a musician to perform it).
:)
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FIRST
This going into a new vid?!
Got a feeling he hunter for vid clips and got here 👀 hopefully it's in the new vid
Put this in a vid!

i had no idea youtube would drop a swedish man spending thousands of dollars to make a piano play with hammers into my lap today - but here we are, and i am frankly thrilled
And at 3am GMT too!
Agreed
Not swedish its Norwegian
@@Untitled_Freak no it's swedish i speak it
Respect
The use of the curtains are to mute the sound of the piano, just by using a pedal, which some people call the practice pedal. Hope you find this helpful Mattias.
Your determination to finish this project despite ALL those setbacks is inspiring af! 🤯
I hope, later in life, you have enough weird pianos to open a weird piano museum. I would go.

"Do you have 87 more hammers? I have a lot of nails"
So good.
Hahaha the delay on the sales clerk too like he genuinely considered what I said (See you on Discord?
My dad: Finally, a worthy opponent. Our fight will be legendary!
It honestly sounds like he's speaking in code.
what was happing to you
O.o
These pianos need to be put in a museum as art pieces anyone can play.
I have seen and heard a “player piano”, the one with paper rolls, it had a curtain that when moved down allowed rivets to be stuck. This gave a “honky tonk” sound. Good for jazz.
Pianists: this is piano abuse.
Engineers: this is genius.
I'm both and honestly I'm equally appalled and fascinated 😂😂
as neither of those, i can safely say this is what i think the reactions would be
I learned that some musicians of the early 20th century put stuff such as bolts and screws to their pianos to create new sounds.
Sooo does that make him a piangineer...or maybe an enginianist ..lol
mmm
true
MATTIAS! Please start making sample libraries of all of the pianos that you experiment with! They all have such unique timbres and it would be super sick to have these sounds available. It could also be an incredibly profitable business idea if you sell the libraries!
You can actually obtained those library for free on his website
That would be so cool!
still pending for him to upload the hammer version 😂
@@pinkcatto1296 Can't find such a website, would you mind commenting the website adress?
Thank you! Yes I signed a contract with a company that makes VST’s. It’s gonna be hawt and cool but takes time!😄
2:29 That in the backround SCARED ME!!
Me too 😅
My drumsticks are also made with carbon fiber and its really nice material ive used those sticks for over 10 years now
It would be fun to call an actual professional pianist and make him play something like Listz or Chopin on those weird pianos
Or play hammerklavier on the hammer piano
I will hahaha

Need a hammer?
oh my god i made that exact suggestion on the poll i swear but i didnt get any likes or anything
This is awesome. In case you want to try another method and compare, you can try putting Brass Tacks on each felt pad. Seems to have a pretty similar sound.
It sounds gorgeous. I very much admire your commitment and hard work.
The "curtain" is called a practice pedal. It's so you can play the piano without waking people up

Cool
Pretty useless when you put a hammer in the piano

The fact he did this mostly just for our entertainment, and could have just switched for a cheaper and easier idea, shows how much you should appreciate what he does.
Don't tell me what to think
@@jlslreyn I think I'm going to tell you what I think m8
The most Perfect life lesson i've ever seen under a video
Imagine playing like this for a month then going back to a normal piano and being able to play super fast, Rock Lee style.
Rahhhh this is Big Brain🐦🐤
You should watch Piano no Mori
going from a heavy piano to a light one completely ruins my muscle memory, it doesn't work like Rock Lee sadly.
This might happen to me if I ever get an actual piano, the electric one I have has super heavy keys
Have you watch Naruto or something
This must unmistakably be a Hammer Piano for anyone who does not understand the difference between a pipe organ and a percussion instrument.
What's next for the most discerning music connoisseur? A ballistic piano with strings activated by gunshots? But don't operate that in a school which is a designated gun-free zone. Also make sure that ALL activator-guns point AWAY from the pianist.
It sounds really great! Great job!
He did it, the mad lad he did it. We have found the guy in the math problems.
Underrated
It looks like honey is sponsoring them

The "curtains" are what activate with the practice pedal, that muffles it so you don't annoy everyone when you practice over and over
Nice profile picture😁
Yup I had no idea that existed before but it’s smart af. (Pls join Discord love you)
I did not know that even though I don’t play any instruments but I do have great ideas and like the educational entertainment.

Your resilience and determination is awe-inspiring
Enjoyable video as always.
I take it you've heard of 'Prepared pianos' ? They've been around a long time though I think they were usually modifications you can undo quite easily
POV: You're an aspiring Swedish jeweler building his tool kit. You go online to buy a hammer for your tool kit, only to learn that the Sweden is now suffering a countrywide jewelry hammer shortage.
Crap my hammer broke... Well time to order a new one....
Errrr... What... All sold out !?!
You're saying it wrong! Is yewelry!
my dad is a retired piano tuner , i can tell you made him cry...
I didn’t know he thought the results were that beautiful🤝
@@Mattiaskrantz oh well I consider your work like a piece of art. Some may like it and some do not, but either way interesting to watch.
Plot twist: He cried of anger
@@kiq4767 that’s not a plot twist that was the original joke (it was supposed to be more of a sadness thing tho)
@@quincius8638 anguish is probably the word your looking for
This actually makes an amazing sound with the real hammers in it. It goes to show that there’s no end to creativity and many amazing things undiscovered
You're an absolute mad man. You were so concerned with whether or not you could, you never stopped to ask whether or not you should. And that lead to an instrument, I would say is not better or worse, just different. And it could use it louder types of music. This is a very Metal piano.
this man single handedly raised the market price of tiny hammers by 350%
No wonder why Thor has to "call" his weapon: this youngster always steals it for his evil pianorpuses!
LOL!
And he did the same with tuning forks
@@thatelectropig8678 yes.
Mattias drinking vodka from a wine glass, while staring at a pile of hammers is a whole mood.
Very black metal...
Same vibe as Matthias from Hi5 drinking vodka from a clear water flask and staring at a pile of keys...
He was getting hammered
What a nice bench...
this deserves a lot more views because you put lots of effort into on single video
keep up the good work
I am amazed you did it! I am speachless
My neighbor told me that when he was a kid he put brass thumbtacks on the hammers of his school's piano to get the "twang" sound to jazz up "boogie woogie" songs. He said he got into a lot trouble for it, but that it worked! He demonstrated this on his own piano at home and it gave the piano a very unique sound.
That's a rather common technique, if you play ragtime on it: instant Saloon feeling. It's known as a tack piano. By modifying the hammers you(or someone with the right tools) can also make it more mellow
Honky-tonk pianos. Dad had one like that.
Ohh Ok
Cool
"I have become the guy in the math problems..."
Ladies and gentlemen, he has ascended.

• Hire a pro pianist without telling him about this.
DO THIS!!
Yessss This HAS to happen.
Nice idea
"First time tuning a piano with piano strings" Now thats some achievement
Hahaha😅😅😅(See you on Discord?
I’m so glad to see you had 5M views for all this work
“I know what you’re all thinking-“
You should get rid of some of your pianos
“I need another piano”
_No-_
who knew watching a man put hammers on a piano could be so damn emotional
It was so sad when the hammers snapped but the ending was amazing it was like watching UP all over again
_Metal_ hammers, that is....
Yes very very emotional of hammers
I'm a music teacher and I am 100% going to be sharing this with some of my classes. In fact, I'm going to start doing an 'Improbable Instruments' day where we watch videos of people taking instruments to the next level, and you bet you are going to be one of the main stars of the show. Really cool, thanks.
Have you ever seen the video of the guy who made a piano our of popsicle sticks?
I recommend looking up “gordo drummer” he drums on buckets from your average hardware store and makes it sound amazing. Also the “marble machine” it’s basically a music box on steroids and it’s extremely interesting and sounds wonderful
Don't forget the marble machine in that case!
@@kaitlint3987 I hadn't until now! Thanks.
This video inspired me bro,!! thank you.
The sound is cool and metalic. Perfect.
This is a movie itself, it has a storyline, plot twist, sad moments, happy moment, intense moments.. wow
i thought the exact same too
theres a movie in China called the piano in a factory is about an actual steel piano cus the father can’t afford one for his daughter
HIRE A PRO PIANIST WITHOUT TELLING HIM ABOUT THE HAMMERS XDD This is going to kill me haha
Lol not bad idea
YES

You can already achieve an EXTREMELY similar sound by using the "FL Plucked!" VST and cranking up the "Color" knob.
This video is ART
You are so underrated!
The amount of time he spent on this is kinda admirable, I probably would've broken that piano out of spite and annoyance.
As a pianist, I would die inside if I had to witness that
@@lepepperoni3369 bro, the amount of money too
People rich enough can't hesitate to break that you know
Dude didn't even think to test the piano hammers. Fucking stupid after wasting that much time.
Spite, like a fucking child. Reflect on your life.
I like to think this is how pianos were invented - someone just smashed a harp with a hammer, and thought it sounded good.
Smashing a harp with a hammer is called a Dulcimer. Lol
It was actually invented when someone tried to make a harpsichord with varied dynamics by using hammers in case anyone was wondering
@@Charlie-jh3ux who tf asked
@@austinworkman9967 Technically the original commenter.
@@austinworkman9967 Your insecurity is showing
The soundtrack in the background makes me feel like I'm watching a Mark Robert video, but only that it's a Swedish guy instead of him. Regardless, KEEP IT UP MAN!! Love your content!
the fact that it sounds AMAZING
I like how even though he had many setbacks, he didn't give up. He kept on trying. Honestly, that's amazing.
this guy deserves more than a million views for how much effort he put in just to make this video.
In like 5 years I bet the CZcams algorithm will probably make that work all too well
I’ve seen this like two years ago, but I just rewatch it every now and then
This sounds so good tbh
It sounds like a harp
MATTIAS, MATTIAS, MATTIAS!
The hammers and piano wires are both conductors of electricity. You can create something with that principle like connecting led lights so each time the hammer strikes the piano wires they will light up. You can now also use your piano as a midi controller or map out the piano keys with just about anything. Surprise us.
Genius!
I think u should find a way to tell him, maybe discord.
I like this idea....an old-school way of making new technology come to life. Each string could be a different degree - or shade of color....in a rainbow effect or a prism effect. OR...each string could be wired to a different telegraph key and you could hammer out coded messages. For instance, if you played a Wagner piece it would mean the Nazis are coming....but if you played the Beach Boys "Good Vibrations" it would mean that California finally fell into the ocean....and on and on it goes.
But he painted.them already
Very shitty midi controller because there's no velocity information
