Balloon Bass + Kaki King
Просмотров 4,6 тыс.13 лет назад
I met Kaki King around 2001 in NYC, just about the time I first learnt how to make a balloon bass. And it was always a goal of mine to get good enough on the balloon to one day play with her. Ten years later we live 3000 miles apart, but we recently crossed path for an afternoon and here is a piece of a lil jam session we did.
Balloon Drum Kit in Action
Просмотров 17 тыс.14 лет назад
First attempt at putting together an actual kit of balloon drums. I've been making balloon drums for years, but they were always placed on the floor. Finally I got around to building a real kit, with a chair, kick drum, snare and toms, plus other sounds unique to a balloon drum. Played by Gabriel "Frontrow" Rowland, in my garage. More to come...

Vintage Electro Harmonix 16 Second Delay as explained by Nels Cline
Просмотров 60 тыс.14 лет назад
I found one of these old delays on craigslist in Cleveland (thanks Allen!) and then went over Nels' house for a quick lesson on what this amazing pedal can do. He has been using the same one since 1979 and uses it all the time. It is truly a sonic space machine. This is just a super quick intro, hopfully will do more soon.

Solo Balloon Bass Blues
Просмотров 25 тыс.14 лет назад
"Blues for Jerry James" - On the abstract/funky side of things - Played on a 100% latex bass, made with one round balloon and two skinny twisting balloons. My finger turns blue from having the string wrapped around it - an occupational hazard, but not life threatening. Shot by my old buddy Charlie Eckert. more action at www.balloonbass.com

Balloon Bass Green Big Muff Improv
Wait there’s a rubber tree 😂
Nels is such a creative force. Pure talent.
Love that Box! Big Box of Joy! I want. Wish they wasn’t so pricey
Amazing!
14 years later and this popped up as a memory. One of the best early RUclips videos out there.
You ROCK
A Balloon Valve would allow me to deflate it more quickly
The largest size twisting balloon is a 660
0:44 Rock n Roll, it really adds a nice Rock Crunch.
What amp were you using?
The Big Muff Distortion Pedal has a nice Rock n Roll sound.
That base guitarist is OFF THE HOOK!!! WHO THE HELL IS HE? Just unbelievable touch and feel. So good. Best rendition of a classic. Great job guys.
His name is Joey Maramba, based out of LA, and plays in John Cale's band
1:56 It does add some thickness to the sound cause it's a Bass & we want it to sound Bassey.
14 years later and still one of my favorite videos on the internet!
Not the damn balloon bass again 😊
Balloon bass...is that what we've come to?
Outstanding work! I love it! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
Sounds horrible. Cut the balloon crap.
Wow you Rock
Sounds like Joey was using a Pitch shifter pedal to emulate a Guitar.
I have found a Special Plug for balloons so I wouldn't have to tie it.
I've used this Pickup on my Ukulele & Mandolin so I could rock out through my amp
I have that Pedal & it's an Electro Harmonix Copy.
You rock
4:12 and you end up with good old regular plumbus
Hahaha real easy ...but first you've Got to graduate on baloon engineering
Absurdo
Awesome.
That is quite low.
So I recently managed to dig up the old account I had back from 2008 and was going through my Favourites list (before liked videos where a thing) and saw the original Balloon base video. Wondering about other things done by old channels I clicked on yours on a whim and holy shit after so long you're still going! Can't wait for the new album, sounds like an interesting project!
Thank you! I appreciate you coming back to visit and hope you dig the tunes!
Tits magoo
Ya'll is sick!!!
tabs pls?
0:38
U below the 8 year ppl dam
Had one sold it. Will always regret it
this is amazing
I wasn't expecting that
That bow playing on that bass is amazing! Not even an ebow. Great sound. otherwordly
Juju
Not exactly what i was looking for but im happy with result
RUclips thank you for this masterpiece
It's amazing
"Running away into you" John Frusciante used this for the vocals!
Nah he did that one with the digitech pds 1002
Years later and I still love this
that must take hours of practice to intonate properly, well done
Vengo de un poco de todo
So impressive.
THIS IS INSANELY HARD RIP A LEGEND
Russolo would be proud.
Sounds like tom morello 😂
Lmao yes xD
