Don't know if you knew Paul Akins who had a museum first in Sikeston Missouri, then one in Down Town St.Louis across from the new Bush Stadium for baseball for a number of years. When He first opened I was a volunteer to work in it. He has all kinds of Orchestrations, Violins, Band Organs, ect. Seeing those folded cardboard type of musical controls brought back when I used to feed them to the machines for the vistors to listen to. A fun period.
That indeed sounds like a wonderfully memory! I know the name. - Paul Akins - and i have seen a short video I believe one day where he shows off his Mills Violano and a Seeburg H. Must have been a fascinating collection and a very interesting person!
Brilliant !! Do you know how these DECAP work in the backend? I guess they have a Hammond organ or similar playing next to the physical pipes? Where is this instrument located, by the way?
@@BoGijsel normally, these dance organs use a bellows to provide air for the pipes and the actuators. they use a special book that has holes arranged in specific patterns, basically a physical version of midi. the rollers move the book through a special manifold that blows puffs of air through the holes in the book. this is then relayed to a special sound board. this sound board then administrates the more powerful jets of air to the respective instruments at the respective time for respective notes. these are normally all powered off of one electric motor which pumps the bellows and runs the rollers. They really are quite complex, in some ways more so than a pipe organ!
This is quite a rare example as the accordions are freestanding as normally the accordion is played by one of the robots.This is an ORIGINAL robot organ of the 1950s As now Gebr Decap are building NEW robot organs using exactly the same system as in the original examples & quite a few modern examples have already been built & the latest of these has jazz flute & vibratone pipes in addition to the Hammond & more are on the way!
I have seen those new type of bands, its fun to see them makeing that varient again, like stern pinball are makeing some new versions of their most rare pinball games to bring down the vaule.
Hi Max I came here to tell you that this guy named Darthbladers JFs Thursford Collection copied your video so I came to tell you plus I reported him and you should to thanks for reading
Peter rabbit & the bfdi- Favourite bunny 928 I don’t know if this true or not, but I don’t think the saxophone player is actually playing the sax. I think the sax sound in the video is either an electric organ or a sax being played by the organ behind the scenes.
@@musikautomatenfan3662 So it has an ANALOG SYNTHESIZER inside? I remember that most of these automatic organs use different sets of organ pipes to mimic sounds of different instruments. Everything is pneumatic and the only thing electric is the motor driving the air compressor...
@@JBF-GST-Tanda Exactly, Decap has always tried to integrate new innovations into their organs like analog synththesizers or Hammond organs and thus create new sounds.
@@user-yw8sr3uj1w and seriously your name is @@user-yw8sr3uj1w ? I confirm that the sound is strange, the most audible one seems to be synthetic, and the sound of accordions seems very far away.
The ones rrom Decap always have such a lovely design. Its like art deco or streamline moderne. Very pretty.
Imagine if the robot band just starts up randomly in the middle of the night
I would do the pennywise dance while they were playing.
The animatronics get a bit quirky at night,
Awesome keys on the accordion
Delightful! Even robots can enjoy music!

@@WelteMax I think he was Paul Eakins. I have lots of his records.

What a funky contraption
You should give the saxaphone player a solo in a jazz song!

Reminds me of a family holiday in Brighton.

It is in the mechanical entertainment museum. They have all kinds of this stuff

I know of at least one that plays a Hammond L100.
They were like that Remote (BFDI)

Why is the saxophone sound weird?

@@showbizcec4985 The sax in this case is playd fully electrical by generating the sound with radio tubes.
@@musikautomatenfan3662 Thank you for your insight into these Decap bands of the 50s. That’s very interesting to know!

How did this thing even work?!
Leuk voor de efteling in Nederland

Righr everyone?
WTF... blind sided!
strange little world
the organ is very beautiful, but the sound much less so :-(
Wh-what??? You're objectively wrong. This sounds amazing.
