Making An Instrumental With Just Stylophones? | LOOTd

For years people have been asking us to try making songs, so this week we're trying to do just that, but only using Stylophones (bet you wish you hadn't asked now huh?)

If you couldn't tell, we don't have much song making experience. That said, what type of song would you like to see us attempt to make next?

[@James-en1ob]

Classical
Specifically Paganini Caprice 24

[@elizadoolotssecondchannel9545]

Jazz

[@jay_.voorhees77]

Death core

[@zbear404]

This is great indie horror music.

[@rollinraver6056]

Drum & bass, loads of different styles of it too, intelligent, hard step, clockwork etc etc.

[@plagued_inferno6059]

A couple of those were kinda groovy!

[@ashwin5860]

6:10 Last 5 minutes of the exam

[@erlannderrantem6972]

There were some gems in this! I think what you need is structuring/arranging skills. For example Start with the basics like just the kick, then add hats, then more cymbals and finally snare, claps and other sounds. After that get a bass line going and so on…
Also a good idea is if you already have a melody or rhythm in your head record it and revisit later. Also take brakes, don‘t pressure it, and walk away from the instrument and try do it in your head. I hope somebody finds this helpful.

6:10 When Shinji causes 3d Impact

[@mazdarx-7spiritr710]

Damn I've never watched lootd in like months but your videos make me happy 😁

[@cheapnoise9014]

I love your instruments videos. It sounded weard but good! It had an Aphex Twin vibe.

[@JonasBombeke]

This sounds like it could be the soundtrack to one of those weird "Caught Between Worlds" 3d art movies by Beny Tchaicovsky :'D
Really enjoyed this video!

[@RetroPlus]

Some of the sounds you made there were pretty cool

[@LOOTd]

Now we just need to know what to do with those sounds 😅

[@ellasharpe123]

Ah, fantastic! Your review of the Stylophone Gen X-1 is what pushed me to buy one last year! Glad to see you having another bash at these noisy bastards :)

[@johndymond1314]

This sounds like every gabber/hardstyle rave I’ve been to lol 😂

[@FPS_miyagi]

This attempt of music is very loud and very scary
Just like the infants

[@HappyMan0203]

Coming back to this video, that last track sounds like something fucking Aphex Twin would make, I love it.

[@diasdje]

This channel is severely underrated, love these videos :D

[@circlingourfate9708]

Congratulations, you've discovered gabber

[@LOOTd]

Oh no

[@NintendoSushi]

that last song bit had some STRONG nine inch nails vibes

[@_-Marcel-_]

That was much fun with some "useful" sounds/riffs! 💥👍🏻

[@davidbyourplanb]

I loved it!!

[@purplepandaguy9887]

Great music 😁

[@Gliptoon]

You went crazy at that last beat

[@SlyHikari03]

Its like if Art of Noise and Aphex Twin collabed.

[@Godsecretary]

That was quite good, it’s modelling the sounds on the Gen-x1 that’s hard to grasp on the fly

[@zavotic6184]

interesting

[@EcoMythos]

You should do another vid of these but allow effects. I am sure with just basic reverb and added bass these would be much more appreciable.

[@benbarltrop2006]

To be fair the fact there's only one music making video on this channel is kinda criminal, this was great

[@CoNeTexX]

Hey, cool video? Could you please explain how you connected the stylophone to your iPad and garage band?
I really need help :)

[@HappyMan0203]

I feel like you could make for a good speedcore/gabber dj, lol.

[@James-en1ob]

Hey Charles when will make cheap instrument videos again?

[@LOOTd]

For sure, want to do a video on the cheapest violin at some point 👍

[@James-en1ob]

@@LOOTd nice! It would be great to hear you play

[@theshed8713]

i like this vid its just funny

[@dharmanreal4692]

6:10 the dollar store Manhattan noise

[@rollinraver6056]

Music is music if it has a rhythm.

[@arc4ne_ann1h1lation]

One of the sounds on the stylophone beatbox sounded like madonna's song hey mr. dj

[@jjsqueeeze9919]

He has a very specific style lol

[@Eyal_Freyhan]

you should try make a song purely out of otamatone?

[@s_e_r.]

I actually liked those. Does that mean I have crap taste or is Charles actually good?

[@JosiahSyedhan]

And thats we have music theory

[@LOOTd]

Yeah we skipped that class...

[@James-en1ob]

@@LOOTd 😆

[@JosiahSyedhan]

@LOOTd U legends

[@angelserrano3655]

You should make a Band.

[@olssong7941]

Some german musician likes this

[@eruibi]

please sell me the Stylophone BeatBox I can’t find it anywhere 😭

[@JH_47]

0:27 you should NOT wear an ice cap

[@TalesShack]

Sometimes it was yes, yes, YES... NOOOOOO!!!!

[@memyselfi8122]

xD

[@reytunezbz]

But he still has a yellow hat in the thumbnail.😅

[@LOOTd]

Yeah I messed up on that one

[@incognito1456]

69 likes nice

[@congerscott6064]

Im disappointed, no smoke on the water lol 👍.

[@angelserrano3655]

A song is mainly voice and lyrics, do not forget about it!

[@LOOTd]

How did I not know his?

[@morgan.n.hatfield]

Instrumental music: Am I a joke to you?

[@angelserrano3655]

Music is not something you own. Your Music is nice, by the way.

[@yeoldefoxeh254]

This was terrible.
