The timpani also doubles as everyone's favorite standing desk in band
More of this please. I love getting to hear about instruments and music types I've never heard of. Now I have to go down a rabbit hole of pitched percussion music.
On a side note my grandfather was an Episcopal priest and his church had the pitched church bells you mentioned are used in Europe. I forgot the name of those bells already, but getting to pull the ropes and play them as a kid was always the best part of going to service. The sounds and jumping in time with the ropes is great fun. Totally worth a try if folks get a chance.
Was first marimba in high school. Favorite memory was doing a 160bpm straight 16th note run up and down the whole thing during a competition, and the ENTIRE time locking eyes with the judge.
"I passed out and woke up in a fursuit on ketamine" 😆
I love so many of these - the sheer number of ways humans have come up with to bonk a thing to make a beautiful sound is jus humbling 😌
This video feels like an OG FrankJavCee video in the best way possible.
GAMELAN MENTIONED WOOOOOOOO! Used to play Saron for UNC, glad to see the many, *many* instruments of gamelan on full display here!
Fun fact: Karl Bartos auditioned for Kraftwerk in the 1970s as a vibraphonist, and from there went to basically influence every genre of electronic music ever since. Don't underestimate melodic percussionists.
I showed this video to my girlfriend a few days ago and the next day we ended up going to the Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix, a decision I am now SO glad we made because it made the trip so much better. We were pointing out all the instruments we saw from this video, marveling at how many types of zithers there are from around the world, and both collectively lost our minds when we saw the museum's ENORMOUS display for Gamelan. Thank you for the delightful video, and for making an already great vacation even better ❤
Heck yeah
Nice to see the balafon in here. A couple years ago, I ended up in a days-long Wikipedia and internet deep dive into one of its relatives, the gyil, which has stretched spider silk across holes in the gourd resonators, which gives the instrument a distinctive buzzing overtone. And then I spent another day trying to replicate it in a DAW by torturing a sampled marimba instrument with various plugins.
I absolutely love this kind of content. And I can't believe how badly Google Lady pronounces membranophone.
nodding my head and smiling knowingly throughout the entire video... 20 minutes of real shit
THANK YOU, I always get marimba, glockenspiel, and xylophone mixed-up even though people have explained them to me many times. Perhaps laughing at this bit will actually get me to retain it
OH I CANT believe I missed this video when it dropped, I can’t wait for the next one. Ur comedy and editing has evolved so much over the years and the videos keep getting better
There was a carillon in a nearby park when I was a kid, so I'll always have a soft spot for them. If you ever get the chance, do not miss the Saturday afternoon carillon concert at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. A spring or summer afternoon sitting in the sun in the Bishop's garden listening to that music is really almost worth the trip all by itself.
*P.S.* Yes, I'm sure _that's_ why you were in a fur suit and on K. 😘♥✨💖💜
As a former Washington Cathedral choir boy in the '80s I recall this vividly.
So excited to watch the rest of this! But it's already really cool to see that you're talking about Horn Suck-I learned about that at the Phoenix Musical Instrument Museum, which is an awesome place to go if you have no choice but to be in Phoenix. The museum layout is mostly based on geographic migration of musical instrument traditions, but they provide classification info as well. It's rad to see dozens and dozens of kinds of instruments that are approximately 'lute'. (Also they have Clara Rockmore's original theremin.)
Ok, back to pitched percussion.🍿
oh rad!
This video sounds like it took you a long time to research and produce. Congrats on getting this one out the door. All the best, man!
Thanks!
absolutely loved this! took me back to sitting in my college music history class and absolutely loving that we spent weeks learning all sorts of different pitched percussions discussed in this video. Love it!!!
Love it, both content and delivery! I can't imagine the amount of work involved in the series!
Xylorimba (from memory) is just a different register version of a Marimba, goes up higher and has different resonant properties.
I was the timpani player for two years in high school orchestra and I can confirm that it is very fun
This was a great video and weirdly I found myself cheering when the instruments I'm familiar with came up. Gamelan! Clavichord!
once I played a piece that asked striking the glockenspiel with finger cymbals. go do that it sounds great I love it. while you're at it find a vibraphone and bow it. bow your cymbals, bow everything you can!
also great video!!
It was definitely worth it Jeremey, as usual top quality fun and interesting content
WHOOOO GAMELANNNN !!!!
and there's angklung too ? i didnt know they count as pitch percussion.
I love videos like these! So many awesome instruments out there!
Truly appreciate this type of content Mr. Recording. I love learning about this stuff 🤓
I liked the vibe of this video. Sort of a manic chill.
I'd definitely enjoy more.
she sachs on my hornbostel till I classify and so on
ok since you yourself made a bazillion step bro jokes throughout the video, I now feel better about my initial comments. Thanks
Hahaha
Incredible video. Definitely gonna experiment with these! Thank you so much!
Commenting for the youtube algorithm this video was great. My wife ads that you missed the pitched percussive sounds of clapping cheeks.
Oh snap
that was unintentionally implied by the closeted gay furry dudes. probably.
This format of video is so splendid. Thank you
Harry Partch had some ingenious instruments... the Mazda Marimba, Nuclear Cloud Chamber, and that one made of tuned whiskey bottles.
One instrument that I don't think was covered in video was the patt waing (& others, come to think of it) of Burmese classical music. Hsaing ensemble music is WILD, with rapid melodic and rhythmic changes, uncommon time signatures, virtuoso performances... there's an out-of-print Ywa Sa Sein Chit Ti album 'New Arrangements for Hsaing Ensemble' that is absolutely one of my favourites. When I first heard it about 24 years ago, I actually thought my computer was borked.
Timpani was always my favorite to play in band. You can really fuckin' wail (whale? Wale?) on those things and often they're written to have a part where you just crush em.
Marimba is best Rimba. Another one of my favorites. Vibraphone always made me feel like a noir detective.
School band was awesome. I can't remember the name of it but it looked like an old rusty brake drum or rotor from a car you'd smack with a rock hammer (like geologists use).
Thank you so much for free education. I have just recently been thinking of making music and having someone like you give in depth educational content for free really helps me not have myself bombarded with tons of information all at once.
This is amazing, thank you for creating it. Carrying this with me for the rest of my life: "Anything could be a lithophone, if you're not a baby about it."
Fantastic video! Thank you! Love this kind of stuff
This was so wonderful, Jeremy! Loved it! Thank you for all the work.
great vid, excited to see more in this series!
Also there has been days where I looped Lujón for an hour or two. Those strings are so smooth, and the bassline brings each loop in and out really well. I applaud that you brought it up. The rest of the album is pretty good too but Lujón is really special. That bass kalimba sounds a lot like a Lujón too, neat!
I enjoyed this video very much. Informative and very entertaining. And I need to incorporate pitched drums more in my music in future.
thanks for the showcase of cool things. i'm gonna go through the source videos now
Love this vid! Would love more of this format :D
This is great!! Thanks for the super interesting deep dive!
More videos like this! This was fantastic!!
I was lucky enough to play a LOT of these in my time as a percussionist in my schools bands, particular favorite are hand chimes because they're such a satisfying feeling to play, and gamelan instruments because they go so god damn hard its unreal.
THANK YOU for showing the cuíca! I had no idea what this thing was called, and only the vaguest idea how the sound was made. LOVE the sound. Reminds me of someone hyperventilating. Flashing back to Quincy Jones’s Soul Bossa Nova.
I've been getting into Autechre recently and they've got immaculately pitched percussion
Thank you! Entertaining and well researched, I'll certainly use this in my intro to music class :) Keep up the good work!
I love these videos, and you are amazing at them.
This video is a treasure - thank you so much
Jeremy, you're an inspiration to us all. This video is fantastic!
This was so much fun! Can't wait for the next installment :)
Being a hard core Blue Man Group fan - I think we could add a few of their instruments.
From the fandom page:
PVC Pipes - The sound of the PVC instrument is achieved when open ended polyvinyl chloride pipes are struck with closed-cell foam rubber paddles. The pitch of each note is determined by the length of the tube.
Tubulum - (Tube-you-lum) The Tubulum is similar to the PVC instrument but has more of an updated sound. This instrument is struck with drumsticks rather than paddles. Its notes reside primarily in the bass range and it is the featured instrument in Blue Man Group’s version of Donna Summer’s classic “I Feel Love” from The Complex. One of the reasons Blue Man Group was so excited to record this song was because the Tubulum does a great imitation of the fast synthesizer arpeggios found in techno music.
I absolutely love the sound of the Tubulum. I feel like they are featured in The Glitch Mob's "Take Me With You" to great effect.
A lot of the other instruments that they have "invented" are more traditional instruments played in non-traditional styles.
Not electronic but still modern, so: I LOVE how Empyrium use the dulcimer on their "Über den Sternen" album! Check it out if you're up for some beautiful melancholy. Listen to "A lucid Tower beckons on the Hills afar" if you wanna know if it's for you.
Dordeduh also uses this instrument wonderfully on their "Har" record, they're also a metal band but in a wholly different subgenre, check out their track "De neam vergur" for a taste
That was super fun and funny. I had to pause till I stopped laughing a couple of times. Love your videos.
Harry Patch and the Semantron have also informed me that the Mr. Lucky Goes Latin track, "Lujon" was produced by Dick Peirce. The More You Know... 💫
REALLY LIKE THIS NEW TYPE OF VIDEO ITS SO INTERSTING PLEASE MAKE MORE
Tempani is a lot of fun to play. But if you fuck it up in the context of an ensemble, everybody knows. It really stands out and you have to show your confidence when playing it. Been there, done that.
14:56 Harry *PaRtch* is the less funny but more Googleable thing. And his stuff sounds *incredible*. 43 notes per octave, crazy microtonal stuff, but he was an itinerant homeless guy for a while who rode the rails... Astonishing music!
Mature adults know that stonehenge is a lithophone and don't just giggle about it.
Love this. Excellent work and I'm scared to think how long you spent researching / writing
so many times in this video it made me want to subscribe to Red Means Recording but i already did that so I will type a comment. oh, Jeremy, the Wintergartan clip made it in!
Really love these types of videos. I tend to get a bit lost in your more technical videos (not on you I'm just not very knowledgeable at synths stuff) but this slaps!
Thank you, very cool video !
This was great! Really interested in seeing where you take this series :)
I loved this! I'm definitely going to try using some of these. Also, it was hilarious! Semantron 🤣🤣!
15:40 this makes me want to try to emulate it with a vowel filter on something that sounds vaguely like a plucked piece of metal so i could make music with it
Good series right here
Just love these vids, informative and fun and look at all the cool commonality of things first humans made to make noises all over the world 💜
Oh my God thank you! I've been trying to remember the name of the daxophone for like 3 years! I've just been wondering what that crazy instrument I saw one time was called again.
Very cool video!
Great stuff! But I was wondering whether pianos were also counted as percussion instruments, since the strings are struck with hammers.
I'm so glad you discovered the horn suck system in your ethnomusicology studies 🤣
Tom Tom Club gets a mention. Very good.
lol thank you for giving me an educational video I can share to band directors but not for their students
That hammered dulcimer is so Skyrim ❤ great video!
I couldn’t stop watching. This goes hard
Really like the new video style
Thanks!
0:33 rip Maple the best doge sweet baby girl
Loved this
Honestly, wow. Just. Wow.
I didn't know the Basques had their own kind of percussive instrument. As a spaniard, I'm ashamed that I had to get this info from a RUclips video. But hey, Jeremy, good work here!
Great video!
The piano should be considered a pitched percussion instrument as the strings are struck by felted hammers
Why am I watching a video about percussion instruments at 00:30 at night instead of sleeping?
Tongue drums and pianos are cool
Wow.
It's like every Michael Cretu song, explained!
No almglocken‽ Almglocken are essentially a set of pitched cow bells. They are probably my favorite pitched percussion after marimba and vibraphone. I wish there were more options of almglocken sample libraries / virtual instruments on the market 😢.
this educational video slaps
please play "paranoid" on sauron and "the bells" on cowlung!1!!
I liked this video a lot
Cool!
As educating as it was entertaining!
Thanks!
Can't imagine how much editing the snappy visual presentation took.
Can't help but notice Jeremy is still in the yt algo doghouse. This deseves more views. Sigh. /:
how the hell did you dive into the same rabbit hole nearly the same time (assuming you started a fair amount of time before the video)
Harry Partch mentioned 🎉💯
perfection
phenominal video! great to see harry partch mentioned, all his original instruments rule. also, did we miss crotales?
the tabla is my favorite
what do you mean silly sound waves won't cure my depression!
Oh this was a success for sure.
