Seth Peters Hypothermia, actually. At least I think. What I find extra hilarious is that while being burnt on the pyre his body sat upright, and through eyewitness accounts we know one person died of shock and another shot at the body.
"Try me" "Well, it is a song composed by a German, sung by Jamaican-born brits, about a Siberian mystic, arranged by a US-based Russian(?) expat, to be played on a French fairground organ"
The sound the organ produces here kinda has a "sidechain" effect to my ears, probably not intended of course but it comes out that way. A lot of modern electronic music use the sidechain effect so maybe that's one of the reasons you make a disco-connection. The backing beat also has a skipping quality to it which also probably makes the song sound like it sidechains more if you will. This is just my very uneducated guess, just taking some ideas and thoughts out for a walk
"We need more revenue for the organ museum. Any ideas?" "What about a youtube channel?" "What do we put on a youtube channel? What do the kids like these days?" "I got you fam."
There's something so great about hearing such an old instrument play modern music. The music might change, but the organ still has the same amazing sound as back then, makes me wonder if they ever played the Charleston on it.
Can we all just slow down and think about the full scope of what we are seeing here. Some one (or people) went to all the trouble of tracking down a 100+ year old pipe organ and making an entire full length punch card just to play some funky West German disco from the 70's about a Russian monk turned political play-boy just to see what it would sound like. This is amazing.
Well...no he didn't do it just for ONE song...I'm pretty sure this is the second one he's played on this organ(as it turns out it's pretty good at this). ruclips.net/video/JTnGI6Knw5Q/видео.html
And remember Rasputin hadn't even DIED yet when this organ was built. This organ lived to see through the same man topple a centuries old empire, have a song created about him 60 years later, and then 40 years after that let it's sound be broadcasted to thousands of people around the world by a fantastical, futuristic information system like magic. I can only imagine what the original creator of this machine might have thought when they were building a simple carnival music machine.
Play this song on a 100 year old organ, light candles around it, wear an ushanka and dance the Cossack dance around it to summon the spirit of Rasputin.
Technically, exactly that. A .midi file is simply a set of instructions on what tones to play in a digital device's audio system. The piano roll is just that. Only the replay device is purely acoustic.
If I had a time machine I'd take the punched paper, then travel to 1905, and lead Rasputin to this organ, and then I'd have the organ play this song for him.
This one there's no way to play live. You have to have punched cardboard music for it, but if you can get a MIDI file formatted the right way it can be processed into something one of the automatic punches can knock out. It takes hours per song to punch! Some other organs in that collection are MIDI enabled and can be played from a MIDI keyboard (to some extent) - but that feature is designed mostly for tuning and you can't really do everything at once from the keyboard. But you can theoretically put thousands of songs on an SD card and play whatever you want at a moments notice!
Imagine going back 100 years into the past, and slip this wee funky number into one of those fairground organs. Suddenly stand back and watch the looks on the faces of the people, as this plays away!!

I know this is an old comment but it’s probably because we never lived then, we never felt the time passed as we were bored, happy, sad, and many other emotions. It feels little because there was little for us
That's actually a really primitive form of computing or analogue computing as opposed to digital. The sheets of paper are programs fed into the organ that produce a programmed result.
This organ was built while Rasputin was still alive. The events at the end of the song haven't even happened yet. The organ had to experience it happen, then sing about it.
This is an example of why Organs can be so fascinating to me. They technically never go out of date, you just need to put a MIDI sheet in it and it'll play anything you want.
Man the tones that come out of this and the reverb of the room are so clean, it almost sounds like a synthesizer. And on that note, ever thought of licensing someone to turn it into a VST? Or at the very least posting the specifications or sequencing scheme so that people can submit to your their own covers?
Thought about it... but from having trained other people, I know that it's a lot more complicated than the average music joe can handle. It really requires persistence to be able to arrange music for an instrument like this.
Alexey Rom I'm sure we could figure it out if you showed us how it worked. A template or close up of what you've already done and what your commands do would even suffice!
If you look on his newer videos in the description they say that the music is digitally enhanced although I do not know to what degree that are enhanced.
I have found myself listening to this frequently just because the arrangement is amazingly well done. This comes from listening to the original song quite a bit and over all it translates well to a fairground organ.
The first time I heard this song was today, and it was a Star Wars Emperor Palpatine parody of it, that and a count Dooku parody and a General Grievous parody were how I learned the words
@@Razvii Some modern church organs actually have a MIDI feature. I just gotta find a church that has one, so I can finally put all my MIDI files to good use XD
Imagine you were bringing a huge ass piano and you were crossing the same bridge where Rasputin was thrown off but all off a sudden the piano started playing Rasputin all on its own.
It is machines like this that make me realize how insanely fast technology progressed during the 20th century. We went from horse and carriage to walking on the moon in the span of 70 years. Back then they had to build a complex machine like this to play pre-made music. Now everyone can play music anytime and anywhere with the click of a button or a touch on a screen. We live in the future.

Set a trap, they're not to blame

it's okay it will be over soon Ok ahahahaah i didn't see that word
TurtleShroom Maybe he wouldn't die then. He would know that someone wanted to kill him.
When you think about it, 100 years is long when thinking about the future, but when thinking about the past, it seems pretty short
Oh wow youre right!
I know this is an old comment but it’s probably because we never lived then, we never felt the time passed as we were bored, happy, sad, and many other emotions. It feels little because there was little for us

@@Gass0208 *hold OUR vodka
hahaha VODKA
Hold my baguette.
The organ is French ! 🇨🇵
That's actually a really primitive form of computing or analogue computing as opposed to digital. The sheets of paper are programs fed into the organ that produce a programmed result.
Still amazing though.
This organ was built while Rasputin was still alive. The events at the end of the song haven't even happened yet. The organ had to experience it happen, then sing about it.

Wow...
This is so beautiful.
What if...........He could have survived if he listened to this song
this organ killed rasputin
Hecc
Rasputin's actual very real entry song.
Hahaha nice
Depending on just how accurate the age is, Rasputin may have still been alive when this thing was built.
He was
But it only played the song 100 years after he died
@@larsswig912 because the song was written in the 70s
@@larsswig912 and that is why we need to hurry up and figure out time travel
@@gentlebabarian WOW REALLY🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Why is this unironically even more of a bop than usual.
I listen to this video at least five times a day. It sounds so good.
don't, you'll get tired of it very quickly. I try to make it last
I bet you live in an eastern country !
Nope, USA
USA is even more east than Russia!
Technically the US is both east and west
How have I, as a Boney M fan, only just heard Rasputin on an organ? This may be the best thing since Rasputin said he felt fine.
*Rare* *footage* *of* *a* *ritual* *to* *summon* *the* *spirit* *of* *rasputin*
I mean, if you have a hundred year old organ in your house, you might as well get it to play rasputin
In Soviet Russia, organs don't play songs, songs play organs.
HAMILTON!
I haven't seen this meme in a minute
I know this is woooosh kiddie material but Rasputin was born in the Russian empire
Oh boy I expect woooosh normie doing their epic gamer move
Obsessive Hamiltrash - In my head I read this comment with a Russian accent naturally.
I think you’ll be glad to see me here
Tour guide: "this is a historical organ"
Me: "can it drop the bass?"
Organ: "Challenge Accepted!"
My question is who took the time to punch out Rasputin into a paper spool?
I volunteer as tribute.
Alexey Rom thank you
My question is how long did it take?
plazasta I also would like to know
Indeed. How long did it take to make it?
This is an example of why Organs can be so fascinating to me. They technically never go out of date, you just need to put a MIDI sheet in it and it'll play anything you want.
I'm crazy over my player piano...
yeah you could pretty much retrofit it with a bluetooth speaker…
The chorus is heavenly
Man the tones that come out of this and the reverb of the room are so clean, it almost sounds like a synthesizer.
And on that note, ever thought of licensing someone to turn it into a VST? Or at the very least posting the specifications or sequencing scheme so that people can submit to your their own covers?
Thought about it... but from having trained other people, I know that it's a lot more complicated than the average music joe can handle. It really requires persistence to be able to arrange music for an instrument like this.
Alexey Rom I'm sure we could figure it out if you showed us how it worked.
A template or close up of what you've already done and what your commands do would even suffice!
Alexey Rom
I just wanna say... this is amazing your channel is amazing.
Doesn't it sound like something from "Super Mario RPG"?
If you look on his newer videos in the description they say that the music is digitally enhanced although I do not know to what degree that are enhanced.

1905 was a hard time.
Midi file were in analog "paper" form.
Rasputin.pap
@@fancymalon .pap
Oh... you're actually right..... well my whole world just got turned upside down
I could literally recreate the paper onto FL studio in like ten minutes because it's literally MIDI, it blows my mind that they had this shit on 1905
@@GamingOS I think that authors of midi just copied the .pap format :D
I have found myself listening to this frequently just because the arrangement is amazingly well done. This comes from listening to the original song quite a bit and over all it translates well to a fairground organ.
The first time I heard this song was today, and it was a Star Wars Emperor Palpatine parody of it, that and a count Dooku parody and a General Grievous parody were how I learned the words
'It was a shame how he carried on' is such a hilarious line. It's a completely bizarre song and it slaps!
Agree, I'm really impressed (after living the original song) how excellent it translates
It was such a shame this video didn’t carry on
This would be a great ringtone
Me and the boys asking the priest if we can try the organ but actually playing Rasputin
"pass the aux father, we boutta make this place litter than heaven"
Saw this one guy playing Final Fantasy music inside a church once.
'This sounds like rock and/or roll.'

@@Razvii Some modern church organs actually have a MIDI feature. I just gotta find a church that has one, so I can finally put all my MIDI files to good use XD
It ain't like it used to be but it'll do.
Very good
This. Might be good

J J 2 that’s cool
i picked up an amethyst in oblivion and then i sold it to a trader
Lenn that’s neat
Not only does this organ predate the writing of this song, it predates most of the events the song was written _about._
Oh, those Russians.
Ой! Он имеет ничего. на конце песни, они говорят "Oh, those russians" :)
@Julian Hen only the organ is french :/.
It sounds like boss battle music 😄 so cool!
You're right! Like you'd be fighting this crazed clown or something in an RPG.
Battle against the Communist Dark Lord

I want a Rasputin game now!
Fighting rasputin
Quite possibly the best thing ever. Never knew organs could sound so groovy

me: “eh you know...”
the music I listen to:
its like the midi covers but in the 1800s

Well midi wasn't invented yesterday.
Imagine you were bringing a huge ass piano and you were crossing the same bridge where Rasputin was thrown off but all off a sudden the piano started playing Rasputin all on its own.
On a new episode of ghost busters, haunted key thingy that might be called a piano helps us find Rasputin, not clickbate 😂

This song fits the organ very well! Good job!
Disco beats sound oddly cool when played with an old organ
Wow this sounded so good as if this organ was built for this very song
this organ was built when rasputin was alive
The genius who built this, effectively a physical midi player... in 1905, incredible
Oh, those russians
Edit; wow, almost a year ago and over 300 likes.
There is no way to make this song sad, all recreations of this song always sound happier and catchier than the original and I cannot understand why
When the chorus plays it sounds like some wicked aesthetic basketball theme or some shit
Edit: it's at 0:58

It is machines like this that make me realize how insanely fast technology progressed during the 20th century. We went from horse and carriage to walking on the moon in the span of 70 years. Back then they had to build a complex machine like this to play pre-made music. Now everyone can play music anytime and anywhere with the click of a button or a touch on a screen.
We live in the future.
