Brilliant playing, that solo at 2:50 was A+. All of it was A+. I never realized exactly how hard this piece would be to play. Eddie is a very underrated keyboardist.
This was one of the first songs I ever learned, and it is NOT difficult, not even the solo. You want to hear hard keyboard parts, listen to some Yes or ELP.
Well, look at the description, Warner Music Group thinks otherwise. Their Content ID said that it identified usage of the 2015 remaster of the original "Jump" by EVH. I call 99% BS, but 1% says that it's too good to be a cover.
I agree! VH's synth parts seem easy but they have many sounds phrases overlatps. I'm recording a new VH synt part, "I'll Wait" (incredible piece of music!!) and the synths there are even worse! in fact it's taking some time to go through the whole synt part! But believe me, it's worth the wait! :)
Seen this when it dropped, still to this day the best 'Jump' synth cover on this platform, there are so many things other people just miss in the performance of this tune when they've covered it, let alone actually nailing the tone instead of just using a basic saw wave and slightly detuning it, this vid is literally the benchmark for the album version of 'Jump' on synth, I don't even think EVH himself could play it this well by the time he finally went back to his home planet, respect.
Just like you can type out those words effortlessly due to repetition, you'll be able to play a song effortlessly with practice. Playing songs is one of the easiest things in music. You just practice till it's automatic.
hey , I've been there .. I'm a pretty accomplished guitarist (30+ years) .. I went to see Kansas, (Dust in the wind group) .. I was blown away by the violinist the guy was crazy skilled and technically perfect.. Then he switched to guitar. I though he can't be that good on guitar too .. the dude was like Eddy Van Halen on Steroids.. I was so blown away I couldn't play for a month !
***** but i think its becuase the keyboard part is still playing ... so you cant hear just hes keyboard only ...... yea !! i was totally going to buy that keyboard until i heard he was playing to the CD. .
Finally! accurately played. Great patch too, sounds almost identical. I'm a Jump snob and everyone plays it wrong IMO. The connection between the chords without lifting fingers that separate the flow is demonstrated here. Great job man!
While I agree with you about Nord, why do you have to be such a dick about it?? Btw, Van Halen used an OB-X on the Jump recording, not the OB-Xa. They just used that synth for the video. Both machines are legendary though.
Finally, a version with the right sound AND the right notes. I am more of a guitar player and just had assumed that "virtual analog" synths were probably no better than the "virtual tube" amp modelers that still sound miles away from what they are trying to imitate (I wish I did like modeling maps as they are so convenient, but my ears just aren't convinced from anything I've heard so far). THIS, however, is so damn close it could have fooled me - and sounds closer than all of the real Oberheim covers I've heard thus far (although I do not claim to have heard them all!) If you would have told me you used a vinyl record for playback of the original version, I would have thought the differences came only from a different source as I can detect a minor difference in sound compared to the CD pressings I am so familiar with without even checking it. Ironically, this Nord cover sounds more real than the original played on FM radio as well, since analog FM, well, mangles the crap out of its original source quite badly... I've seen this keyboard in store catalogs for years but never got around to hearing one till just now. I had no idea... Saying I'm impressed may be a bit of an understatement!
surely a talent of so huge dimensions like yours should not be wasted in RUclips comments. maybe you could try being a music producer. I think that by the way you described your musical sensibility, this job might give you a lot of money. white people can be gay sometimes
Junge das war so perfekt, nicht nur das er so heftig spielen kann sondern dass einfach auch der Ton glatt der selbe ist und das zur dem Ende sag ich erst garnichts Einfach Gänsehaut
Man! That was the most realistic obx-a timbre i've heard from all jump covers ever seen over here. Perfect playing and a kickass keyboard. The manufacturer should include this timbre settings in the factory default sounds. Fantastic job!
The Republic of Sardonica and Cynica. Actually with how developed his ear was I’m not surprised at all he came up with something as good as this. Reading and writing is overrated, the ear is supremely important (and many musicians struggle with this).
Bro I have to say this but you're the only RUclips keyboardist who can master the whole song Jump by Van Halen perfectly and in detail to every synth key played. Kudos bro you're a legend 👏👏
You have more talent in your little finger than I have in my whole body. Brilliant mate. A pleasure to watch, listen to and marvel at your skills. Thanks for putting this up for the rest of us to enjoy.
Man, am I sorry it took me until 2023 to find this... Your keyboard work is absolutely flawless, and I've actually gained a whole new appreciation for the keyboard work Eddie gave us. Thank you for this wonderful gift of wonderful music!
We covered this in a Marine Corps travel band back in mid 80's and I had the pleasure of trying to recreate that sound on a....Memory Moog........nice patch man and great cover.
As if you haven't received enough compliments already here in almost 4 years....I own both an OBXa and OB-8 and I have to say your emulation with the Nord is the closest I've ever heard to the real synth and the original song. Nice job, man!
Nice to know I’ve been playing it right all these years. It sounded right but this was the first time I’ve ever seen someone play it exactly like I do. 😷🤘
I love it! that Album rocked! One of my favorite songs along with Dreams. Seeing that video of the Blue Angels when they flew the A4 Skyhawk was amazing, back then they flew the tightest formation in the business, but due to so many air crashes they started flying more loose formations.
Um not to burst your bubble. You can't compare a trainer jet to an F-18. Let's go back further an A-4 Skyhawk Oh wait let's go back even further F-4 Phantom.
I am former Marine Corps Aviation. Yeah I know what I am talking about :) F-18's then to KC-130's. We used to pull the Fat Albert KC-130 into our hanger all the time and always had front row seats and all the swag we wanted and exposure to the entire crews.
i never get tired of this track, never never! I almost went with the nord stage 2, I went with Korg Kronos 2 instead....and OMFG! Nord, Korg and yamaha have to be the best synths on the planet right now, you cant go wrong with either choice
Finally somebody playing the solo correctly. Good sound too! On live situations on the bridge passage I play the strings parts since in my opinion is the most dominant sound, then I switch back the the main saw sound. Thanks!
In a word ''Perfection'' Probably the best version on RUclips I have ever seen. Also love the NORD. Lesson for the day: buy a nord synth to become Eddie
I didn't think I'd see a better cover than the last one I saw, but there ya go. Love the sound and the boost on the mix too, so you can pick out details. Thanks so much. Wish I could play keys half that well. Thanks.
The nord doesn't have the fatness and low end of the Oberheim, but the tone is spot on. Great job, it's as close as you can get without an OB-xa and your actual keyboard skills are phenomenal.
good enough to have performed it in the studio in 1984!
Those shorts are nowhere nearly tight enough for 1984!
down with big brother
OHHH
Who said that baby how you doin
Give him a time machine to send him back.
83 technically
The best Jump keyboard cover on youtube. The sound is perfect end the playing too.
I think so
The playing isn't 100% perfect but almost yes (sometimes a bit too fast in transitions) still tho really impressive better than my skills atm
Yes I realize that I probably should have improved the video editing, but it was one of my very first videos. I'll try to get better :) Thanks anyway!
thanks so much!

Me too!

RIP EVH.
We lost a legend
Eddie Van Halen passed today 10/06/2020 leaving a vast hole in the music world. This part is played perfectly.
Yes my friend !!!Eddie , Brasil cry!!
We love and miss you Ed.....and we always will. Thank you!
He passed on 2020-10-06, not 2020-06-10.

He just has the right synth
at least he got the passing tone. I've seen at least half-a-dozen videos that missed it
He’s not actually playing it. It’s dubbed over
@@gwex6555 nope
Brilliant playing, that solo at 2:50 was A+. All of it was A+. I never realized exactly how hard this piece would be to play. Eddie is a very underrated keyboardist.
TheBent139 if you spend time with synth long enough, you can play it
@@michaelwiggler511 If you practice you can learn to play things? Cool! Thanks for the info.
2zlh8 i said if you own a synth a just spend with time with it, you will eventually figure it out
This was one of the first songs I ever learned, and it is NOT difficult, not even the solo. You want to hear hard keyboard parts, listen to some Yes or ELP.
@@johndischert2631 or deep purple

@@shaneharrisnj3484if you watched the video you can hear the song fade out and the synth he's playing becomes isolated. So you're wrong.

1 Million times THANK YOU ALL!!! :)
Alessandro Bizzarri you’re amazing man!!
Grazie mille!!
How do you find backing tracks for keyboard?
you deserve it man, your performance is amazing !
1.4+ million times now. Fantastic video!
The synth's role is surprisingly intricate in this song when brought to the surface. Loved this video.
I agree! VH's synth parts seem easy but they have many sounds phrases overlatps. I'm recording a new VH synt part, "I'll Wait" (incredible piece of music!!) and the synths there are even worse! in fact it's taking some time to go through the whole synt part! But believe me, it's worth the wait! :)
One of Eddie's best solos, somewhat ironically, was on a keyboard. It is always magical to hear.
Seen this when it dropped, still to this day the best 'Jump' synth cover on this platform, there are so many things other people just miss in the performance of this tune when they've covered it, let alone actually nailing the tone instead of just using a basic saw wave and slightly detuning it, this vid is literally the benchmark for the album version of 'Jump' on synth, I don't even think EVH himself could play it this well by the time he finally went back to his home planet, respect.
thanks a lot bro, I'm really touched by your kind words! Stay tuned, I'm working at some fresh new stuff on keys and synths ! :)
Van Halen's 1984 & Jump Covered on Oberheim OB-8ruclips.net/video/LYbQYAdJDEU/видео.html
Plot twist: he is actually Eddie Van Halen
like hell he is.
Now we need to see him playing the guitar solo xD.
ahahaahahah
Haha ja pik
Or maybe his hands are just............so big or.....too big!
This has got to be the best Jump synth cover on RUclips. Absolutely superb.
thanks so much!
When you realize that this was the winning song when you win FNAF
The shift completed music.
Fnaf ripped of van halen lol
2:45 that part of the song always gives me chills!
I've been practicing this.. and now after watching him play it, i've spiraled into a depression. This dude makes me feel like crap.
Bro, you just have to keep practicing, measure by measure......you'll eventually get good at it!
Just like you can type out those words effortlessly due to repetition, you'll be able to play a song effortlessly with practice. Playing songs is one of the easiest things in music. You just practice till it's automatic.
Don't be depressed by witnessing talent, be inspired.
hey , I've been there .. I'm a pretty accomplished guitarist (30+ years) .. I went to see Kansas, (Dust in the wind group) .. I was blown away by the violinist the guy was crazy skilled and technically perfect.. Then he switched to guitar. I though he can't be that good on guitar too .. the dude was like Eddy Van Halen on Steroids.. I was so blown away I couldn't play for a month !
Keep up the good work and don't give up...
It's chilling how accurate this is. Well done!
***** but i think its becuase the keyboard part is still playing ... so you cant hear just hes keyboard only ...... yea !! i was totally going to buy that keyboard until i heard he was playing to the CD. .
+chick corea well this is the most closest sounds I've heard without actually owning an Oberheim OBXa. I don't think they are made anymore.
fft
ponhemar
Finally! accurately played. Great patch too, sounds almost identical. I'm a Jump snob and everyone plays it wrong IMO. The connection between the chords without lifting fingers that separate the flow is demonstrated here. Great job man!
Exacto! That's because most keyboard players on RUclips only use 3 fingers per hand 😜
Props to Nord. Close your eyes and it's an original Oberheim.
@DJ 3RD WORLD STAR No
@DJ 3RD WORLD STAR Show me any Casio model that can do what a Nord can do when the Nord is used to its potential.
@DJ 3RD WORLD STAR to a DJ maybe. To someone with musical abilities, no.
Proud to see that Va Synth 1 (Var: 010) on my cheap Casio px-5s sounds exactly the same without any modification needed
I have an Oberheim OB8 and I have to say this sounds exact!
Probably the best version on RUclips I have ever seen. Also love the NORD.
many thanks! :)
That synth brass is fucking identical to the original! OMG!
The truth can hurt sunnboy, always room for improvement.
While I agree with you about Nord, why do you have to be such a dick about it?? Btw, Van Halen used an OB-X on the Jump recording, not the OB-Xa. They just used that synth for the video. Both machines are legendary though.
Get yourself some help. You sound like you need it
Matt Leone actually you're wrong, it was an OB8, not that you would know.
John Smith is that really the best you can do? Then again, what should I expect out of a guy called John Smith...
This Cover Gave me Chill
the sound of that synth gives me chills its so good. timeless.
really great playing of one of my favorite songs of the 80ies!
thanks a lot!

from the series of the full original analogic true bypass equipment guitar player that plays in his room for his cats
The real supersaw synth is vintage. Not just possible by any modern analog synth.
Best version of Jump Ive ever heard! Youve smashed it!

I learned this with a set of headphones back in 1984 and came to see if you nailed it.
You delivered.
And to think this music was written and played by Eddie Van halen on his second instrument and he couldn't write or read music!
The Republic of Sardonica and Cynica. Actually with how developed his ear was I’m not surprised at all he came up with something as good as this. Reading and writing is overrated, the ear is supremely important (and many musicians struggle with this).

The best Jump keyboard cover i have ever heard. Eddie would be proud.
This is great! Showing both main synth and strings in chorus also is another + for this cover. Good job!
Best one I've seen on here. Well done!
just one word: perfect!!!
One of the best and easily the most recognisable synth parts of all time.
Just amazing! So very well played, love this!
Thanks for sharing with us.
Outstanding cover my friend
Eddie would be impressed and proud, well done!
Best jump keyboard cover on YT and Clavia red matching shorts, that’s Italian fashion sense
for you.
Best cover on yt of this song! . So sad that such a superb musician like EVH has passed away..
i can say it match close to 100% same as the origing, good work and playing, thank you for refeelings to 1984

Best VH Jump synth cover on YOU TUBE!! Great job!! The Nord sounds fantastic too!!
thanks!!
This is so cool!
That was awesome, perfect.
nailed it! I love that dirty saw synth!
Finally someone who nailed it. Actually the first one on RUclips I have heard doing the keyboard part correctly. Good work
Other worldly amazing!
Great cover man! Such a good tribute to Eddie. RIP
RIP to a legend ☹️
A wonderful performance.
Very great!👏😉👍✨👏💙👏💖
It is transmitted to my heart!

Nonsense! And Oberheim, and the profit, and a heap of other synths?
Underrated keyboard riff.
Wtf? Its like one of the most famous ones I've heard it million times
This is more like most overplayed synth riff ever.
😅 what?
he means it doesn’t get the attention it deserves
Wow! Freakin awesome job!
I LOVE the way you put this together .. how it fades out during certain parts.. absolutely awesome!!
Finally somebody playing the solo correctly. Good sound too! On live situations on the bridge passage I play the strings parts since in my opinion is the most dominant sound, then I switch back the the main saw sound. Thanks!
How Talented are you?
Eddie: I can make the greatest guitar solo and also the most recognizable syth riff of all time.
That super chorused saw wave is so phat.
That made me want to ...JUMP ! ! ! Excellent work.
So nice 👏🏻
Nice red short! :)
Keep on rocking'!!
Volutamente in onore dello Stage 2!! :))
Just wow! You freaking nailed it and I loved every second of it
Lesson for the day: buy a nord synth to become Eddie

Absolutely fantastic, the only cover I've heard that does it justice.
This is spot on! brilliantly done!
Yeah grande Ale
What I remember from the 80th is the following: electric guitar players dancing on stage to synth music.
I didn't think I'd see a better cover than the last one I saw, but there ya go. Love the sound and the boost on the mix too, so you can pick out details. Thanks so much. Wish I could play keys half that well. Thanks.
