I get wet in my eyes every time i hear a Rhodes cos it is so beautiful , and i lost both my 1978 Rhodes Mk1 and my 1978 Minimoog ina tragic happening....These instrument have their own soul and can take you some dimensions higer to the other side of the veil,..
@Ben Garland The only thing i miss in the Rhodes that a piano has is the dynamic range. The dynamic range of the Rhodes is limited. Otherwise I indeed prefer the timbres of the electric piano.
I thought for sure it was the sustain pedal squeaking. In general, if there's a Rhodes in view and something is squeaking, I assume it's the sustain pedal
Keyboard players prefer to spend money for keys, not for chairs. I have a couple vintage synths too and that's why my chairs aren't so expensive :) and Matt Johnson plays so sweet.
I’m imagining the recovery room in a hospital has Matt playing these tunes for people as they wake up from general anaesthetic: ‘Nurse, do my ears deceive me or are those the sweet sounds of a Vintage Vibe wafting towards me?’
I am a keyboard tech who has worked on many Rhodes pianos over the years. This is amazing in that when played hard it resembles a Wurlitzer and when played soft it sounds like a Rhodes. Just getting the weight lighter is a major achievement!
I would love to have a full LP of you just playing the Rhodes and the Moog. Absolutely lovely playing , one day I’ll have 1 % of the skills you have , you know what I’d be happy with that
At times breathtakingly beautiful, then such a groovy jive it lifts my spirits and makes me want to dance, then chill, relaxing and dreamy again. Your music takes my spirit on such amazing journeys!
All I want in my life is not a girl not a Ferrari not anything other than a Minimoog and a Rhodes! I don’t care about anything else other than these two fantastic instruments!
The orange colour is particularly striking Matt, very 70s. You just need the matching brilliant orange VW bay camper van to tour California playing mellow piano to the night time stars. It sounds gorgeous.
To quote Jay :-D Matt 'clever!' Johnson. Really wonderful sounds here. I especially like the footage at 6.20 . I sent this to my friend and we both agree it's like being high on audio
Dayum! Went from a Chick Corea kinda vibe into a sorta Vangelis "Blade Runner Blues" feel, and then... I hear a lotta Chick's influence here, some George Duke, etc etc. Really glad i stumbled upon this vid.
What a BEAST of musician you are Matt, thanks again fir this videos, glad we can listen you play. Will love some solos or improvs from any Jamiroquai songs too! Big hugs from Argentina!!
Have had the honour to see you play live in Malaysia during the F1 Circuit. Stumbled upon this today, been a fan since I was a kid. Timeless sounds always from you. Thank you.
One of the things that gets me every time I hear one of the VV pianos is how sweet sounding it is. It has that oh, so coveted soft attack of the MKI Rhodes when playing mezzo piano, but it doesn’t mean that you can’t dig in and give it a run for its money. Excellent playing, as always, you certainly do the instrument justice.
So nice !!!!!! Quite versatile, I am surprised !!! That is creativity !!! Love it !!! I am stunned at the pairing with the synths ! Gives me ideas !!! Nice video Matt !!!!
I like to hear the mxr soft sounds with thunderstorm and light rain in the background be nice you play the keyboards really nice put me to sleep but it's nice relaxing
Matt, your playing really brings out the beauty of this instrument. In my opinion this Vintage Vibe keyboard is its own instrument. As fantastic and organic sounding as the Rhodes but has it's own personality. So glad they are building them!
i dont mean to be offtopic but does someone know a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost my password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me!
Wow beautiful phrasing and the ce2 chorus is breth taking thank you I was thinking of selling my Wurlitzer 200 until you woke me up brilliant thank you From Los Angeles and the Angels play on
This is phenomenal playing. I hope one day I can play at your level or at least approach it as this was extremely inspirational. It is my contention the Rhodes sound is just pure heavenly as it just hits the soul in a most illustrious and harmonious way like no other instrument. Your playing certainly highlights such a beautiful body of craftsmanship.
Matt, you're just on a different planet. I really enjoyed this video, especially the Stevie/MJ licks at 11:00. A real inspiration. You're part of the reason I am learning to play. Any tips on theory/practice you can give me I'd me most grateful. It all seems like a whirlwind at this moment, not easy! All the best.
The Boss CE-2 pedal with this piano sounded sublime!! Very useful that you can insert effects. I hope you release an album with all your favourite synths / keys. LOVE those jazzy chords with the Moog lead.
Sounds amazing love your playing great touches with the moog! could listen for hours, had to play the Rhodes on my Kronos after this I didn’t come close but had fun, you inspire my groove, thank you keep em coming 🎹🎶😎🙏🏻👍🏻
Came for the orange keyboard. Stayed for the vibe of a lifetime.
the rhodes is litterally the most beautiful sound in the world
A D it’s his opinion you dweeb

Nothing like a Rhodes and a Moog.
@Ben Garland The only thing i miss in the Rhodes that a piano has is the dynamic range. The dynamic range of the Rhodes is limited. Otherwise I indeed prefer the timbres of the electric piano.
When Johnson's musical fingers are jamming on its keys, would be the truth.
nice to see professional musicians also have squeeky chairs sometimes
I was just thinking "I hope Matt has a better chair or else he might harm his bottom!". :)

lol
Better than a troublesome stool!
release an album of those little jams and noodling arounds with the moog and the electric piano, you will be surprised with the appeal
this appeals to me very greatly
I would definitely like to hear this. Reminds me of Herbie Hancock or Cory Henry but with a vibe somewhere in between library music and deep space.
Hahahaha agree
I would buy it now
Yes plssss!!!
Damn, that Vintage Vibe and Mini Moog combo is giving off some "Moon Safari" feels
Talisman!
or the end of "le femme d'argent" after minute 6:00
s/o to AIR !!!
Yes! AIR. Tell the mini moog patch settings please!
@@JoshRichmanDesign Agreed! We must know.
that piano and the moog were made for each other.
damn i could just smoke a backwood, and listen to this guy play those sexy stacked jazz chords all day. so good.
anddd, the internet has been won!♥️💛♥️
I’m imagining the recovery room in a hospital has Matt playing these tunes for people as they wake up from general anaesthetic: ‘Nurse, do my ears deceive me or are those the sweet sounds of a Vintage Vibe wafting towards me?’
"Nurse, is this heaven?"
The iconic sound of classic rock and jazz that everyone loves, great that it's been brought back!
I need album recommendations!!!!!!

Something about this gear and the sounds they make that just makes you look forward to the future with a touch of romantic nostalgia of the past.
I practiced for a whole hour and still didn't sound like this guy. Most definitely one of my favorite artists.
3:00 i see what you did there
lol before I clicked on 3:00 I thought, it better not be the damn lick

You are getting your wish!!!
What a combo! Moog, a Space Echo, a beautiful Electric Piano and a ton of talent from Matt. So glad you posted this after your Moog One video.
Which moog is that?
@@jpilot07 Think Matt has a Minimoog Model D.
Model D?
@@jpilot07 The most common Minimoog.
Sorry there’s a million of them so I didn’t know lol
would kill for an albums worth of just jamming with this sucker as the lead instrument, maybe some light percussion to go with it.
Apollo Kreez yes!
Yup. Would be some serious "downtempo" type music or ambient.
And a bass guitar.
The odd gentle vocals here in there. No words though. An album of Rhodes and Ride Cymbal would be tight.
I keep coming back to this. So hypnotizing.
500 miles high......
I dream that this man will produce an album with this instrument.
3:12 wow, the combo with that MXR pedal is like whipped cream on tap. Magical!
The combination of you, Rhodes and Minimoog is so laid back. I just melted into my chair listening.👏👏👏👏
At times breathtakingly beautiful, then such a groovy jive it lifts my spirits and makes me want to dance, then chill, relaxing and dreamy again. Your music takes my spirit on such amazing journeys!
The sound of the Fender Rhodes always sends me :). Thx 4 posting
Rhodes is the best electric piano ever made it's dreamy bell like tone resonates like no other. Thanks for the excellent performance 👏.
How can anyone put thumbs down to this? Even if you don't like the music, the playing and the sound is undeniable. What's wrong with some people?
Brings me back to my childhood. The sounds of the 70's. Sweet tones,
So glad you upload these great videos!
All I want in my life is not a girl not a Ferrari not anything other than a Minimoog and a Rhodes! I don’t care about anything else other than these two fantastic instruments!
....and then to be able to play them ;)
@@marcusdekker So funny and true. If you want to play enough though, you can learn to do it!
The orange colour is particularly striking Matt, very 70s. You just need the matching brilliant orange VW bay camper van to tour California playing mellow piano to the night time stars. It sounds gorgeous.
Funny you should say that, I have a 70's camper and that's why I chose that colour!
Aawww
I'm absolutely loving the combination of these two instruments.
That mini rhymes so well with that orange rhodes.
To quote Jay :-D Matt 'clever!' Johnson. Really wonderful sounds here. I especially like the footage at 6.20 . I sent this to my friend and we both agree it's like being high on audio
SkillipEvolver I agree completely! We need actual musicians nowadays!! I was completely swept away.
Beautiful playing Matt! Nice little taste of MJ's "I Can't Help It"
That second Minimoog patch with the longer sustain sounded so good
It's interesting that it's a modern remake of a Rhodes but the form factor of a Wurlitzer.
Dayum! Went from a Chick Corea kinda vibe into a sorta Vangelis "Blade Runner Blues" feel, and then... I hear a lotta Chick's influence here, some George Duke, etc etc. Really glad i stumbled upon this vid.
Rhodes with the model d is pure eargasm... Well done Matt, I viewed the video several times. Looking forward to your album.
The music starting 3:12 puts me in such a great, relaxed state of mind. My go-to the past few weeks. Thanks Matt!
You are an AMAZING keyboardist. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Imagine a chill Jamiroquai album with these spacey sounds.. all recorded on an old Ampex 4-track
Search "Digital Vibrations-Jamiroquai"
Was going to say just prefer an entire album of Matt exploring sounds in his own space !! This is brilliant
I think you just described the first two jamiroquai albums
Jack Selby-Smith 4 tracks not enough.
What a BEAST of musician you are Matt, thanks again fir this videos, glad we can listen you play. Will love some solos or improvs from any Jamiroquai songs too! Big hugs from Argentina!!
4:27 This section with the space echo - mmmmmmmmmm, coolest thing I've ever heard. I just melted. :-)
This is so beautiful, never stop making music sir. Thank you
I love the sound of vintage electric piano, reminds me of 70's neo noir movies. Kinda makes me want to learn to play, actually.
your jazz chord progress is so freedom
I love listening to you play. It comes from your soul and it inspires me. Thanks for sharing...
Have had the honour to see you play live in Malaysia during the F1 Circuit. Stumbled upon this today, been a fan since I was a kid. Timeless sounds always from you. Thank you.
5:01 got some Hey Arnold Vibes around here, brings me back to childhood
So nice to sit back and listen to these magical sounds.... let's get a video on the minimoog next! I'm in love with that patch.
I love that you set up the sound mix on the video so we could really appreciate how the piano sounds. Good job!
I’m not really a nostalgic guy, but this is giving me some heavy feels from my teenage years in the 70s. . .
Absolutely beautiful Rhodes sound, especially with the phaser.
This sounds delicious! I would have to seriously save up... This had to be the BEST ad for them that could be made.
I have had two cats that always seem to really enjoy listening to this!
I didn't know who you were, I never listened to your music but you pressed two keys and I immediately realized you are a great musician. Congrats.
He's a lot more recognizable with a maniac in a hat nearby.

I could listen to this all day 😍
You curate this channel with such a unique perspective. I'm humbled the most by the folks I've come across in music like yourself. Thanks brother.
You really dialed in that smooth Moon Safari sound on the Minimoog!!!
You have that minimoog dialed in sounding like it does on some of Air's songs. Amazing playing :)
Dude come to Argentina, we make you president
lmao can confirm
si wacho de unaaaa

Perfect Video!
Beautiful mellow electric piano sound. Also I've never been felt moog's sound attractive like this!
Sounds so good. The sound of the moog at the beginning is lovely as well!
I like to hear the mxr soft sounds with thunderstorm and light rain in the background be nice you play the keyboards really nice put me to sleep but it's nice relaxing
What a beautiful sound! I was fascinated to hear it.
The Vintage vibe sound is just so pretty. Nice color!
Rhodes and minimoog. My favorites. That patch sounds amazing. Perfect!
I'm honestly downloading this video to listen to it everywhere.
Great performance and styling!! The effect pedals were inspiring as well. Truely educational.
Matt, your playing really brings out the beauty of this instrument. In my opinion this Vintage Vibe keyboard is its own instrument. As fantastic and organic sounding as the Rhodes but has it's own personality. So glad they are building them!
The part where u started to play with the Roland echo and minimoog, oh my... I want that on a record
agree now i want a moog
Doing all the stuff I wish Stevie Wonder was still doing!
robin miller right on :)
Stevie and Steely
The moment when you find that sample you’ve been looking for
Beautiful spicy fourths, thanks for sharing
what a lovely combination!!!!!
What a great perception and taste for sound tones aesthetics you have!

@Shepard Warren instablaster :)
Wow I really think you have such an amazing feel for the rhodes and the moog
Matt, I could listen to you play all day long. That's a great piece of kit , but it takes great skill to bring it alive like that . Awesome man!
Some beautiful moments in this demo... I'm lovin' it
Beautiful sounds and Melodies, It reminds me a little of hey Arnold's melodies. Haha
Damn that's good. I'm sure Thundercat is all over one of these too.
LOVE that sound,. I need more of that sound in my life.
thank you for providing this experience, it let me freely dream again...
3:01
it's every jazz nerd's "favourite"
L I C C
"The Lick"
I can also kinda hear it at 8:31
Oh for fucks sake WHY
You ever hear "Stompin' at the Savoy"? Pretty much the whole song is the lick.
Wow beautiful phrasing and the ce2 chorus is breth taking thank you I was thinking of selling my Wurlitzer 200 until you woke me up brilliant thank you

I loved this video, as much as Massimo Bucci's Fender Rhodes version of "Tarkus"... you guys are both incredibile musicians! Ciao!
Damn! That thing sounds amazing! Vintage vibe has come a long way
Spectacular and soothing.

When you bring the Moog in around 4:40... damn. Rhodes & Moog by far my favourite pairing. So good. One day. One day. ;)
Absolutely superb. Thank you Matt.
Absolutely love this. Then the Space Echo and Moog kick in. OMG!!! Thanks a million Matt!
My God I adore electric pianos!
Amazing sounds. Love the patch on the moog as well.
Aye, she's a thing of beauty.
The other side of my pillow can never be as cool and soft as these sounds. Great video, thanks for showing people this lovely piece of kit.
