Creating the most British track ever
Even more british than the whole selling England by the pound album?
Impossible
If this isn’t just a cover of The Kinks’ “Autumn Almanac” I’ll be disappointed
hahaha so true
Well, I’m convinced: all my basslines are going to be played on Stylophone from now on. 🇬🇧
And that is what we call creativity.
I’m putting my bass guitar for sale.
@E B I know a website for that… haha
My P Bass is now firewood….
I like your style…ophone.
Dude
2:15 I’ve always wondered why this sound/method of playing chords is so popular. There are tons of songs that use it in some form, the most popular one i can think of right now is Lena Raine – Pigstep from Minecraft
It’s a really common “Beatlesque” thing to do… I Am The Walrus, Strawberry Fields, Imagine, Don’t Look Back In Anger 😅
Do you mean the walking bass ?
If George Martin was the fifth Beatle, David Bennet is definitely the sixth. Your evocation of their sound was really convincing!
@Polibix for the Beatles? no
@Antonín Dvořák mostly in a negative way
@Romina you cant really influence music in a “negative way.” for example if yoko had made johns music more bluesy, and i dont like blues, its not that johns music is worse per se but not my taste. (though i do like blues.)
@Antonín Dvořák being influential doesn’t make you a member of the beatles tho
@Rominai guess not but she still was fairly important, and not to be rude, but i don’t recall epstein ever recording a song.
YES David! Can hear all the refsssss very British Indeed! Good luck xxx
Sounds like the Kate Bush revival is happening at exactly the right time for this contest!
As a fellow Brit, this video almost made me spill my tea all over my bloody crumpets, mate.
ELO got there first. That sounded remarkably like 10538 Overture!
Such a cool tune- you are truly an amazing musician
Wow, thanks!!
I definitely hear a little bit of Dear prudence and walrus in there and they blend so nicely
Cheers!
Sounds like a mix between Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds and Dear Prudence. Love it
Funny, I’d have said Strawberry Fields Forever and I Am The Walrus…the beginning at least. Later on, I can see (hear?) the others.
I used the chord progression that is used in both “Lucy in the sky” and “Dear Prudence” so that will be why 😊
Congratulations on getting through an entire Stylophone video without mentioning Rolf Harris. I would not have been able to show such restraint.
Killer composition, absolutely nailed it.
Cheers man! There’s a documentary about Stylophone which I was going to show some clips from but it was hard to find a bit which didn’t feature either Rolf Harris and/or Jimmy Saville 😅😖
The added lines from theatre performance reminded me of Public Service Broadcasting band which, surprise, are londoneers. It all comes together! British at its finest
That is actually really good. Has such a 60s, 70s British rock sound.
Thanks!
This chord progression and even the melody, sound a lot like “Firth of Fifth” by Genesis, which is arguably the most english sounding song ever.
The path is clear
Though no eyes can see
The course laid down long before
And so with gods and men
The sheep remain inside their pen
Though many times they’ve seen the way to leave
He rides majestic
Past homes of men
Who care not or gaze with joy
To see reflected there
The trees, the sky, the lily fair
The scene of death is lying just below
Insert Steve Hackett solo!
There are lots of youtubers that play one instrument really really well, like Davie504. But things are at a whole other level with these people who have actual music degrees. We don’t often see David play other instruments, but honestly we shouldn’t be surprised when we see David play drums and bass or Adam Neely play classical guitar and piano or Charles Bertoud plays piano. Of *course* they studied all of these other instruments and have a well-rounded background in broad aspects of music.
Sounds like if Earthbound was remade and that was an opening track or something… LOVE IT!
