Members Redhotpoker Posted February 4, 2011 Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 I'm bored, but not that bored,, hahaha, anyone can make music, and aspire to do well playing it. Now try to make it onto a bigger stage, very few climb that next important rung. The second video was interesting. If he had better quality instruments, with more realistic sounding voices, it would have sounded really good. Very talented young man. I'm only just a hobbyist. I Play for Fun.

Members pdiddy Posted February 4, 2011 Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 Actually, someone could make a fortune off this band marketing them to kids (a'la Wiggles). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Metrosonus Posted February 4, 2011 Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 there's something gimmicky that irritates the crap out of me about him. although i will say I think there's a volkswagen commercial that seems to have stolen his particular style.

Members Plink Floyd Posted February 4, 2011 Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 He amuses me. As long as he doesn't take himself too seriously, he may continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mediterranean Posted February 4, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 there's something gimmicky that irritates the crap out of me about him. although i will say I think there's a volkswagen commercial that seems to have stolen his particular style. lol, what irritates the crap out of me is more like the d*ckhead who rang the big red bell seconds after they started playing. Musically, I found his compositions very nice. The arrangements are rich. I don't really care for the singing [and not because of the amateurish way he sings]. When I put my headphones on, it's the music I dissect:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soundwave106 Posted February 4, 2011 Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 I've enjoyed his stuff really. I'm just beyond burned out on the awkward geek thing.. Britain has loved the awkward geek musician role ever since Buddy Holly toured Britain. I'm glad they got the zeitgeist to get big. I'm amused, but the schtick reminds me too much of other Casiocore type bands. Back in my day, we had Atom and His Package, and WE LIKED IT! Now GET OFF MY LAWN!

Members Metrosonus Posted February 4, 2011 Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 Casiocore well you know that is the difference.. we tend to strip the subtlety out everything and then run away crying and screaming about why were arent famous enough on our giant mack books on myspace.

Members poserp Posted February 4, 2011 Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 I remember this from a year or so ago, saw a few vids with the new Keytar. I like it, along the lines of "Synth Pop is Dead" but the British version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members angstwulf Posted February 4, 2011 Members Share Posted February 4, 2011 He amuses me. As long as he doesn't take himself too seriously, he may continue. I think he's in on the joke. It's a side project for some DJ/Remixer guy in the UK. I prefer it to those bands that really claim to be cool geeks. Then again, I may be the only person I know who hated Weezer...

Members Redhotpoker Posted February 5, 2011 Members Share Posted February 5, 2011 There must be a dozen or more bands, combined by members, aspiring or asperating,,, on this Forum with more talent andplenty enough of gadgets & gear to blow the roof off any stadium around my tiny cold city. Would be pretty neat to learn about a group of talented musicians joining ranks, that had it's early beginnings on KSS Forums. 12 guys all playing synths and samples, what ever. Climbing the charts like Nickel Back , a new KD Lang, or others who made it huge,,,.Who are you? Chas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Plink Floyd Posted February 5, 2011 Members Share Posted February 5, 2011 I think he's in on the joke.Sure he is. Everyone got it but Simon sCowell. He makes good bouncy synth pop, and he has a funny gimmick. Looking like that, he has to have a gimmick; he's certainly never going to be the Brad Pitt of keytars, eh? Besides, he's from Leeds. Everyone from there is cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
