    ​Absolutely phenominal! I grew up listening to Jean Michel Jarre....KEBU is the 21st Century Synth Master, the music and technology is just outstanding....

    an incredible video, by an incredible artist, which shows, simultaneously, the strengths AND the weaknesses of the new Fantom: strength: it has, by far, the best user interface EVER, and if you are someone who uses your workstation as a master keyboard, instead of DAW, there is no other keyboard that comes close to how they designed the Fantom to smoothly operate and run OTHER keyboards and modules. Add to that , the looping architecture of the Fantom sequencer, you could then create masterpieces such as you have just heard. Weakness: THIS is the music, or type of music, it is designed to create, however, because of the lack of key elements such as limitations on sections and tracks, different key signatures, and lengths of measures per section, if you attempt to do this with various pop/rock songs, you will find that is not nearly as powerful in that regard. For example, try to do a cover of MONEY on the Fantom, where it jumps to 3 or 4 different time signatures within the same song, and you will come up empty. So: in regards to THIS style of music, you are indeed a genius and thank you for breaking down how you accomplished what you did.

    Despite being a non musical person... or perhaps due to that I sit mesmerized during these very well produced break down videos. I'm totally in love with your compositions and hearing them build up is so fulfilling. Really! :)

  • @toolman8269
    @toolman8269 Před 3 lety +2

    Really enjoyable to see the details that go into your performances. I like how you record the MIDI data and not just the audio so the results are variable. It's evident that it takes a lot of planning and forethought to prepare for a performance, but the results speak for themselves. Fantastic job!

    They are true pioneers, watching Kebu I truly believe he is one of the few taking that greatness into the future.

    I have no idea how I discovered you or your music or your channel, I think it was like 7 years ago, but I'm so glad I did. In fact your music featured in my spotify end of year playlists every year as one of the most played! It's amazing how technical your work and these explanation videos are, and being a bit of a geek myself I find myself stuck to the screen watching your every move. Well done, and please keep going.

    Thank you so much Kebu , you are the Electronic musician to be the up & coming Jean Michelle Jarre of the 21st century, JMJ would be very proud of you & would welcome you to be his advanced apprentice, I love ❤️ the fact that you have such a diverse and fantastic rig of Analogue synths, many by Roland, which when programmed & synced they sound Fantastic my friend!, I will continue to watch & listen to your brilliant talent on CZcams, I'm looking forward to welcoming a Roland Jupiter X or Fantom 61, to the rest of my bedroom studio gear, can't wait!🎹🙏🇬🇧

  • @stevemilker
    @stevemilker Před 3 lety +1

    You are not only a talented musician but also a technologist and taking the hardware/software to the next level. Thank you I am a fan. The time spent experimenting to find the right sound and making it your own amazes me. I wish I could learn to play the keyboard or guitar like this. I only know how to play the trumpet 😆. I love the synthesizer, and when one of my favorite musicians Eddie Van Halen just passed away...I listened to the Van Halen song “Jump” over and over again. Eddie learned to play the piano when he was a kid and I always loved it when he would bring his keyboard talent to Van Halen music.

    Everyone in my family loves your music, Kebu! It is really cool seeing how you put things together and changed some synthesizers to play the song using all Roland gear. I think I will use your point about using multiple synthesizers to get a good mix on my wife.

    Thanks so much for this educational & instructional video, I learned heaps. I knew what I want out of a synth keyboard but my little Roland VR-09 can't do all of what I wanted but that Phantom you got there does all I want. The little VR-09 is good for a learner like me for now though.

    Great stuff Kebu. Your music is fantastic, and it's very nice of you to share how you break everything down. I first started sequencing in 1989 using an Atari ST with Steinberg Pro 12 and a Yamaha PSS-790. 😂 The warmth of the classic Synthesizers tones are still incredible today. All the best. 👍

    Alucinante, increíble, mágico, espectacular, fantástico, creativo, maestro... Y podría llenarte un largo texto con más apelativos favorables... Nunca nadie se había atrevido y valga la redundancia desde aquellos vídeos de la BBC que explicaban que era un sintetizador cómo crear música vía midi y usando fantásticos aparatos para ello. Creo recordar que pocos vídeos de esta materia he visionado que sean tan claros y explícitos en lo que cuentan y que sean tan perfectos de entender de cómo hacer buena y sencilla música a la vez. Fenomenal Kebu.

    Great ! I use only a four position Midi with my Korg Kross controlling the wavestate and Minilogue xd and Deepmind 12 but to do all my other sounds I am switching back and forth from one synth to the next. I do use a double looper but to see you using the Fantom in that way makes me want to re-think the way I am using mine. Fantastic job. Love your music, Rock on Kebu :)
