Copy paste from Wiki : "The key components to Parker's pedal setup is a Holy Grail reverb into a Blues Driver into a Carbon Copy delay into a Dyna Comp into a Small Stone phaser into a Fuzz Face and then into a Diamond Vibrato (vibrato added during Lonerism-era). The reverb into a fuzz and phasers set to a slow rate are the hallmarks of Parker's guitar sound, which has influenced many modern psychedelic rock bands to have a similar setup, which Parker says "it’s the most flattering thing in the world to hear a band ripping you off."
bro. he ripped off so many others ...haha this sound is not his sound. they literally sound like a few other bands io know that have been out for a while but this is pop and pop is always populr to the masses no one actually cares about the music and what took him where he is now, he did not invent this sound at all you would be surprised to hear what i have heard .
Iamwe Kevin’s been releasing his own music since 2008.. pretty sure this is his sound lol. You can’t name any names because you don’t know what you’re talking about
whyyyyyyyy can't this be longer! I've been listening to it since it was uploaded and it still stands as my favourite piece of music I've ever heard, goosebumps every time.
@@Ali_Clarkson I've just discovered Powerlines today as well as this video and I also prefer this version. For me, the original has this overpowering 3 note melody that gets introduced in the middle and takes the track off its course.
@@shotbydebt here everything just sounds and feels much more impactful. The mix is hotter, and everything is punchy. It seems so much more raw and I love it. This is my preferred Take Impala style

DN you can stay there? so Kevin rents it out and just basically trashes the place with all his equipment 😂 I know he’s been in this house even during the making of Lonerism
I remember wishing this was the version that made it on to the B-Sides final cut too... Now, a few years later, I've learnt enough music production to make my own edit of it lol! Here it is for whoever wishes this version was the official one: soundcloud.com/mengzy/tame-impala-powerlines-mengzy-edit

Nah you just need to be in a safe space where you can be free to let loose your feelings, and have the equipment to record yourself doing so. You can start anywhere
I just want to spend every moment of my life in that room. Instruments, speakers, computer, couch. The sun bathing everything with light. Ugh, damn him.
Dear Kevin and other Tame Impala team, please make a longer version of this wonderful track. I really enjoy listening to the mesmerizing and at the same time very good audible music songs composed and done by you. Thanks in advance. Lots of love to you guys from India 💝💐💐🇮🇳🙏
@@dolf7097 but its not the same. however, if u look up powerlines extended, youll get several versions that mix the drum part in the final version with this demo of powerlines. also, a guy named alpha has an extended version of this particular demo if that is specifically what u are looking for. (a year late of replying lol)
This man single handedly revitalized my faith and interest in music. Went to Brazil to meet my wife's parents and one of her childhood friends turned me on to this man. It changed my life. I salute you, sir!
So blessed to have this man around in our time. He is so good at what he is doing. And the passion he feels for it. You can´t deny that. Get the paint on that canvas Kev, can´t wait for what´s next!
An exceptional musician with immeasurable talent. So glad he's able to do what he loves for the foreseeable future and the rest of us get to enjoy it :)

My favorite instrument Kevin plays is the nap.
lol i know this is unrelated af but im the first comment in this comment
thats one thing i can confidently say I play better than him
Naw, he upgraded to the Power Nap man.
What a funny thread this is haha
Best comments 🙌🏽
This dude just did a whole album in his living room while chugging a gin tonic. Okay. this is talent
You mean sipping a lemon water?
Harjot Gill I could not agree more with you. Sometimes the best comes from your living room, or on the road while touring
He's definitely really talented but I'm almost certain this is just a small piece of the work he put into this.
@@SonOfJ smallest)
Tons of people makes music and albums in their room ^^ they are just not famous ^^
In case anyone is wondering, the song he is making is “Powerlines” on the “Currents B-Sides and Remixes” Album
oh shit, thank you!
love that random shot of him sleeping at 1:47

^ You should go with a basic Google search next time. Lol this isn't a new release. If it was I'd need a new pair of underwear
You're telling me this song isn't new? What's it called then? How can I get it :/
by buying the boxset that this video is promoting
He never forgets to take his drink with him. Either Kevin's a real old fashioned gentleman or a functionating alcoholic! :)
functionating
Both. Old fashioned gentlmen are functioning alcoholics lol
A supremely Blessed fully functioning stoner musician alcoholic and arhat a conduit an open door a true disciple and beleafer in the healing powers of Rock and Jah Roll
Whatever he drinks, I want some of it cause this guy's mind is functioning
Blinki18284 it looks like just water with lemon lol
And remember guys, you don't need that wonderful house and so many things to make good stuff
Ricardo Muro you’re right. On the other hand though, that view has to put kev in a great mindset to write some jams
that's far too realistic for Tame Impala listeners...
Alabama Westle I know I was just talking for kev specifically
Anyone can stay there it’s called The Wave House in WA
Always remember that Kev and the guys all lived in a house together. Creativity begets creativity.

lets go
Steven Sihota omg thank you this is a gem
Can't, too busy looping "Let It Happen". Sorry :-P
Tame Impala is currently nº1 in live performance and top 5 in world bands. Just amazing. Thanks Kevin
this makes me jealous, inspired, and freaked out how talented he is. truly amazing.
the fact that he produced AN ENTIRE ALBUM on his own, and in his living room.... incredible!
Imagine being his neighbor
Abraham Sink who's to say he would want that
I'd break the walls of my house just to hear his everyday music
It would be a blessing

been watching this for so many years. saw ya 2016 bonaroo and cried w confetti. ill never forget

Prove It 😝
Kevin is a music genius the way he puts sounds together it’s no wonder he makes so much hits
I wonder why he changed it in Powerlines. This version has a better buildup in my opinion.
just rip this from youtube :)
I have a theory he is saving it for the next record 👍
No, it’s instant fake plastic joy that leaves you broken and unable to hold a proper job.
Vistalgia the buildup is too long and takes forever to get to the bridge(best part) compared to where he went with it tbh
@@mariahspapaya Nope. Both equally great.
I’ve always been jelly of his house! Beautiful location, beautiful atmosphere, beautiful house! Instrument galore! And just overall a dream house! Ugh!
You can stay there, it's an AirBNB, I believe it's called "The Wave House"

WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT FROM LIFE THAN TO DO EXACTALY WHAT HES DOING.
If anyone is curious, the song is Powerlines from his B-Side album. It sounds a bit different in comparison to this one, but still sounds excellent!
Thanks x
This is also why Kevin produces ponds music, his talent is beyond impressive
why isn't there anyone else from the band here
Because tame impala is kevin parker, it's not a band
Yeah the band is just some of his buddies that play the other instruments during live shows, his albums are all self-produced
OakForestBoys and skill*
I though that he only mixed the weather and played drums on first pond appearences…
Should've just released this exact version in the album!

yes I love the sound of death and suffocation
Actually pretty close look up the actual sound a black hole makes and it’s pretty similar to the tone at 1:13
Idk what is better, this sample, or how nice that glass of water looked
I’ve watched this video so many times I could easily identify it from just the sound of him sipping his drink and putting it back down

Powerlines is just phenomenal
This is a much better version of Powerlines than the recorded version!
I love this version so much more than the one on the album, this one simply sounds majestic
I was hoping this version would be in the Collectors Edition. It is so much better than Powerlines.

i will never stop coming back to this video
Fantastic! Thank you, Kevin Parker!
