This makes me think First of October should have more really weird instrument options lying around
Te'd just get de-railed by the temptation of working a blender into every song.
First of October Junkyard Addition
Yeah, these are totally songs to wear pants to.
@@cgibbard That’s an OG reference right there
I dunno. I think this has a distinctly -th of January vibe.
What magical fun it must be to have Rob Scallon as your friend.
Honestly. "Today we're doing this, and you're in."
I wish Rob Scallon was my friend
WARNING I am the unprettiest human YTer worldwide. Take the hint, dear greg
I fully agree hes a cool dude
I wish.
He’d be fun to jam with.
This dudes really out here playing a popcorn bowl and sounding better than anything I've ever drummed in my life
I have two drum sets, some hand drums, some electroacoustic drums, and five drum machines... and one of my favorite things to play is an empty popcorn tin. It sounds good and is surprisingly expressive.

He's the person I love, he's my light
day. The way the music flows and sounds
is extravagant and fun. Anna is
icon, legend, beautiful girl, princess, inspiration,
a star. I could go on and on, understand this.
I love NBA Anna.#垃圾
Rob got popular playing metal with different instruments, but his real calling is to play Midwest immediately on everything he picks up
Rob would be thrilled to know the buttons on an accordion are chords haha
Not always…. depends on the accordion ;)
And that there is a button to let just air pass through to close it.
@@alderankorym I thought about that when he went to close it. I was like surely there's something he can press to make it now sound bad
@@alderankorym Where's the fun in that though?
His handling of the accordion hurt my soul, he only played the keyboard, couldn't use the straps, and didn't even use the air release button to close the bellows; and the playing was another warcrime entirely.
this needs to be a series. there's an endless amount of random things you could turn into instruments with your guys talent!
I just stumbled upon Simon the Magpie. I like how Rob is honing in on the same spirit. I think it would be a sick collab.
Yessss!
Yes please
I've always loved using Found Sounds.
ex:
my bathroom faucet had a loose washer in it, so it would SQUEAK / SQUONK / SHUDDER when you cranked the water up. I used it ala Free-Jazz saxophone! Or I did a duet for SQUEAKY DOOR HINGE, and Moog synth (where I made the synth mimic the sounds of the squeaky hinge!)
Too bad the Blue Klux Klan has falsely arrested me 47 times and destroyed or stolen most of my musical gear and instruments, my HDrives, and 99% of my archives, cuz kkkops can do anything they want and the press and ACLU will cover for them. (I've been jailed by Amerikkkan police for such IMAGINARY charges as "ATTEMPTED harassment of city hall" and "ATTEMPTED contempt of court"!
Ye
The fact that the "odd instruments" aren't just sampled and then pitch-shifted and filtered through a bunch of FX adds so much more to this video, the limitation of their sounds is exactly what's interesting to see and hear, how it will be creatively used to counter these limitations.
Too many "making a whole song out of a salt shaker" is just basically more about synthethizing than anything else.
This is definitely about Andrew Huang, right? Because there's definitely a lot of his videos that boil down to that. He makes bangers, but the novelty factor is limited.
Honestly I really enjoy the two approaches , but I gotta admit that the FX processing sampling method sometimes seems very spectacular for nothing , although I really like it
@@melo3101 i enjoy both too - exploiting the fundamental nature of sound and access to virtually unlimited manipulation methods to bypass limitation vs exploiting the limitations themselves and creating something unique that way
HOW DID HE PICK UP A POPCORN BOWL AND IMMEDIATELY HAVE A FULL DRUM BEAT ON IT
Gotta be some kind of superpower.
It's because he's rob f'n scallon
Never thought I'd ever hear "can we turn up the bike in the mix?" I got a good chuckle out of that. Thank you, you gloriously weird bastards.
I've heard "Turn down the suitcase a bit..." but bike? Nop, that's a first.
My producer never makes the avocado loud enough in the mix. Pretty relatable.
Is that a show format? That's a show format.
Make a season out of this!
I second that ... this is something I would like a whole 2022 of ...
I'd love to watch entire season
With a guest star in every episode maybe? Just because i want to see one with Andrew
Yes plssss
@@vickylikesthis that would he so cool
Jessica Burdeaux os an amazing percussionist. The palm muting of the bike wheel was a stroke of genius.
Spoke of genius
@@Conor42203 you get 15 points
The first song’s instrumental gives off a major outer wilds feel and i love it
The reeds and banjo, you're right!!!
All this time we thought Rob could play any instrument. How far from the truth were we...
He can actually play ANY object whatsoever
He plays Shovel, dude.
@@cypherusuh Actually it's an Electric Shovel
actually everybody has the ability to play any instrument and any object
whether or not they're any good at it is the question
Well... He did say he couldn't play a Violin. ;)
Him AND Andrew Huang!
Watching Rob try to play an accordion was adorable. It's typically played seated, so you can support both sides with your knees.
Hate to be that "well actually" guy but you actually only support one side of the accordion. Normally you’re sitting slightly turned to your left and support the bigger side with the keys (or some people prefer to support it more under the bellow) and the bass side is completely free to move and only hold by your left hand. Or you could play standing up like Rob no problem, he should just have put on the other strap over the other shoulder and it would perfectly stay up even without holding it with your hands.
when i play accordion i actually playing it standing up :L
Down here in Brazil, most accordion players play standing up as well; there's a whole musical culture around it, following the footsteps of the late great Luiz Gonzaga.
I've always played mine standing
Feels really awkward to play it sitting
@@felixgla30 BOOOOOOOOO
This gave me newfound respect for Rob's songwriting skills. Though I wish he double-tracked the milkshake mixer lol
If kate o'leary isn't already a sufjan Stevens song, I'd be surprised.
ctrl f for this comment lol so true
My thoughts exactly. It just feels like it’s a missing track from Illinois.
Mrs. O’Leary’s Cow is a Brian Wilson song
Holy crap, "Biking to the Movies" is an absolute banger.
Can't believe how awesome this video idea turned out!
How is this comment from a day ago when this video was published 2 minutes ago?
@@lemau8458 patreon probably
Its pink floyd song.
I was thinking «biking to Bollywood» but that is Maybe the next song on the album ;)
somebody help this man from the replies
I still can't process the fact that Rob's talents haven't been picked up by anyone larger than Chibson. Wait, I mean Bobby Scallion.
Booby Scallions is getting a Schecter sig FYI
He got that endorsement from sca-taylor guitars though
@@potatoheadhaoy He also founded it, though, basically a vanity label.

I think this really just goes to show how musically inclined Robs' brain is, seriously the entire section with the popcorn bowl and bicycle just blew my mind because it was just SO GOOD! Dude can make absolutely anything an instrument and make amazing music with it 🔥
TRACK LIST:
1. "Cate O'Laery, We're sorry!" by The Entire City of Chicago (06:35 - 08:24)
2. "Biking to the Movies" by The Athletic Cinema Enthusiasts Foundation (12:47 - 14:52)
3. "Oink!" by Stanky Ol'McDonalds (18:08 - 19:34)
Rob: I'm in Vancouver
Studio: Casually wheels out mint condition 1992 Rocky Mountain Fusion mountain bike
Me: Yup that checks out, definitely in Vancouver
wild to me how someone can recognize the year make and model of a bike at a glance
@@catarinabarbosa2247 I had to confirm the year, I just knew it was really early 90s. Rocky Mountain was a little local company back then, this bike was hand made in the Greater Vancouver area. It was rare and cool then, now it's super rare and super cool. I was a very avid mountain biker back then, I aspired to own a Rocky Mountain, and I was able to purchase a Rocky Mountain Oxygen a few years later when I was 16.
@@catarinabarbosa2247 I mean people do the same with guitars. Mabye not at a glance, but some people are crazy at dating guitars
The wonderful thing about things is that everything has someone who's a fan of it.
@@c3kile My dad works with vintage guitars for a living, he can do that.
Cate O’Leary is a certified banger. Gonna be in the top 5 of my Spotify wrapped 2022
Seriously though. Such a good song. So peaceful and mellow
Right, this is entirely up my alley sound-wise and so good 😭 you could pass this off as a new song from a real obscure indie folk group and not something random from a challenge video lmao
If i was still in a folk punk band I'd absolutely play it live
It feels like a track that is missing from Sufjan’s Illinois.
@@Kyleman7401 I was looking for this comment! I thought the exact same thing
I'm okay with this timeline, if only because Biking to the Movies exists. You guys stumbled upon a nice little jam there, and it was absolutely epic.
Cate O'Leary is actually a great song and it gives me Sparklehorse vibes :) Back vocals are simply gorgeus.
Came here for the "this song reminds me of... " comments, was not disappointed. Thank you!
Guy: I’m in a band.
Girl: what instrument do you play?
Guy: I’m lead milkshake mixer.
Rhythm milk shake mixer players are important too 🤣
@@BlackWhiteCloud Yeah those lead milkshake players got no rythm
Plot twist: this guy was Merzbow
I watched this video 20 minutes ago and I came back to comment because suddenly realized I've been walking around the house humming and singing, "Kate O'Leary... We're sorry..." lol It totally ear wormed me.
The first two were through and through bangers.
How fun would it be to see Rob get an accordion lesson from Weird Al Yankovic?
Yes!
Cate O’Leary sounds like something straight out of Illinoise by Sufian Stevens, and i love it
Sounds like a track from Illinoise
Ikr
literally came to the comments to find this exact comment
that’s exactly what i was thinking, banjo, accordion, vibes, everything!
Rob's creativity is mind blowing, dude just gets an idea out of anything. It's nutty. Kudos to everyone else too.
He’s a very underrated musician
When they first started with First of October, I listened to them once in a while ironically, for fun. But man, lately I've been listening to all the albums pretty much every day unironically.
The most recent FoO record is genuinely incredible
@@lorde_spooky It is. Recording one song in full after another improved their structure a lot.
@@reav3rtm I don't know if the song structures themselves were improved, but it meant that they could 100% finish every song instead of having not great improvised lyrics on a few tracks. Also just being able to focus on one thing at a time meant that all the songs had really specific and solid identities and felt much more complete
@@lorde_spooky Exactly my point, focusing on one thing helped songs. Still improvised but with some focused mindset.
I just freaking LOVE Rob Scallon's videos, not only because they are great, historical in lots of cases, fun and funny, but they are actually inspiring
for the content speedrunners and replayers, here dem timestamps:
0:20 "It all has to be released on Spotify" "I didn't realize this was going on Spotify"
1:15 - 2:00 Items for round 1
3:45 Accordion struggles
4:32 Vibraphone vibes and "I'll be the motor"
6:01 "Are you guys good singers?"
6:33 - 8:25 Song 1 "Cate O'Leary, We're Sorry"
8:28 - 9:21 Items for Round 2
9:22 Rob plays popcorn bowl. Legendary
9:57 Jessica makes a machine-gun sound with a tag on the bike
11:26 Rob plays ploy.
12:19 "AAAH" chorus
12:47 - 14:52 Song 2 "Riding to the Movies"
14:52 - 15:47 items for round 3
16:04 Milkshake mixer
16:16 Milkshake cup
16:49 Tire
17:23 Jessica teches a fake pig a lesson
17:56 "Can you do the one oink?" Rob asks the man with one arm
18:06 - 19:34 Song 3 "OINK!"
That could be a Sufjan Stevens' song. Unironically very nice!
yeah it would perfectly fit on Illinois, it even fits the album concept.
@@aylegs6764 damn you're right!
Could we turn up the bike in the mix
Is a phrase that really got me laughing
I got a fever, and the only prescription is more bike
Ayla rules! stoked to see her here
Did she have any clue what she would be doing when she woke up that morning? She was down for whatever shenanigans were thrown at her.
Jessica has become one of my fave people. Love seeing her personality come through in these videos
I love that all three songs are by different bands on Spotify
Loved this!😂
Probably my favorite thing to watch. I love the fact that you improvise everything-it's a lost art.
Great job, guys!
This year's First Of October needs to be a collaboration with this lineup/format. Just bring the two together.
“Biking to the movies” is literally the music that plays when you enter a desert level in a video game and you cannot change my mind
You just made my day. I've been dealing with a lot of stress lately and I've always loved music. There's just something about it that makes me happy. Thank you so much.
Something about the way that swell sounds in "Biking to the movies", reminds me of a tv show opening.
This has no right being this good, oh my god
Rob makes music theory and experimentation more fun to the masses
Cate O'Leary, We're Sorry is a beautiful and emotional song i would listen when alone and feeling blue.
Biking to the Movies would be a great opening song for a tv show.
How do I not feel really defeated with this. I can’t play a full song in my guitar and they make music with a damn kitchen appliance! Ouch!!
Soooo fun to watch!!! Great musicians and creative minds.
As a former accordionist, watching rob try and play with only one strap was both hillarious and kinda sad
please do more of this, it’s fantastic
This video now serves as the ultimate way to prove it when you tell someone “no seriously man, Rob can play anything!”
This was magical and so much fun! Especially loved Jessica's huge smile as she was blown away by how much it didn't suck lol.
I’ve been playing over 20 years and I’ve never wrote anything half as good as biking to the movies. I’m dropping my les Paul’s for a bike and popcorn bowl
I am absolutely astounded by how good these were. I really would love to see more of this challlenge.
That popcorn bowl /bike song has no business being that good!
Inspiring me to put my ass into gear over the weekend as I struggle making a song with a marimba and a skatepunk drum beat.
You all did fantastic. That looks like a ton of fun. I love the energy between Rob and Jessica. And Ayla was a nice wild card. Ya'll need to do this again.
Those first two songs have no business being that good. DO THIS AGAIN!!! loved it
Honestly "Biking To The Movies" sounds like a Devin Townsend track, especially with that wall of vocals ;D
They really went in with the milkshake mixer as the lead instrument. Legendary.
Bring Ayla into more videos!!!
Yes!
Well, if there's anyone that makes songwriting look easy it's Rob 😂
I absolutely loved everything about this. Song 2 hits SO hard!
Blur's song 2 rocks as well lol
@@lightningboltschannel525 you’re not wrong
the o'leery song is great. I grew up knowing that legend and the song was such a sweet little tune
this video perfectly encapsulates the feeling and vibe of a couple of artists screwing around and inspiring each other.
I just love the energy and talent in these! So fun yet such high quality music and entertainment
As the owner of that maple Schecter KM6 I was a little shocked to see Rob taking a blender to it...
Needless to say Guitareo did not disclose this to me
lololol
I was so happy when you spun vibraphone.
I did vibraphone for marching season last year, and I’m super happy to see you actually try it out.
Love Biking to the Movies, that Sitar sounds beautiful.
God, the first song reminded me of "outer wilds" so much. I had a smile on my face as rob played the chords on the accordion. And i had the urge to burn a marshmellow...
Perfect guys. Great job and very creative. What you called "tabouli"(???!!) is actually a baglamas!!! A typical greek instrument. Part of our Greek tradition. Take care and keep on being creative. nL
Your music producer is always just amazing. They can make anything sound amazing
What a great idea! As others have said, the possibilities are endless. And could warrant an entire series.
Rob, you're a damn multi-talent genious, but her drumming speaks to my very soul! I loooooooove it!
I wasn't expecting Ayla and it made my day better 😁
One of the best videos I've ever watched! Well done once again Rob!!!
Rob is insanely talented for creating music with literally anything that comes in his way, that's awesome!
Awesome, Ayla is so cool.
Now, this is the prime Rob Scallon content we all wait for :) These songs are dooope
Biking to The Movies is my new favorite of 2022
Kate O'leary grabs by the heart. Idk why but this song gets me in tears.
Wasn't in a great mood before I watched this. Now, I'm feeling a lot more cheerful about life. Thank you Rob and crew!
Okay that Lowkey sounded Killer!
Hey same name!
this was incredible, we NEED to see this again
18:02 that one armed man delivering that one powerful oink... inspiring...
Can we say that we just saw the best video on the Internet ?? The creativty and the adaptability of Rob is just amazing !! Shout out to the team of course, we NEED more episodes of this for sure.
Oh how badly I want "The entire city of Chicago" to be a real bandname.
It is now
"Chicago" is already a band name, so this is just the logical next step.
As I stated in another one of your videos, while I have no musical talents, for fun, I began buying musical instruments at flea markets for real cheap, beginning in the 1980s. All were in perfect working condition and none were sold for more than $50.00. A large German accordion, two saxophones, ( a tenor & an alto) a silver flute, a ebony clarinet, bongos, and that Vietnamese peculiar bamboo flute-thingie. I used to know the name of it, and on You Tube, I found someone, who plays one exclusively. It is quite primitive, made of bamboo tubes/stalks, combined with a small hollow coconut, and some bees wax to seal all the juncture points. I love all your videos.
Yo, whomever did the cover art and titles for the songs is a genius.
I'd like more of this please, Rob :)
That was beautiful. The bicycle sounds like the Beatles could have written it! Loved them all. Why can't I do that?
This could be an entire series, great concept !
More crazy instruments, guests, etc !
Cate O'Leary is such a good folk song.
Like Rob doesn't have experienced coming up with a bunch of songs from scratch in a single day. ;) Great stuff!!
Rob you have been KILLING it lately. Keep it up man! Also, love seeing Jessica in your videos, she's awesome!
I a blown away by the level of creativity.
What a stunning production
I'm calling the last one "The Silence Of The Hams".
The second song sounds like something from the Beatles. So awesome.
I feel like joining a cult and moving to the desert, worship the sun.
Agree. Reminded me of Baby You're a Rich Man.
These people bring so much incredible creativity, positive energy and talent, I just can't even! I laughed so much while being amazed by how good the songs actually were. My favourite is probably the second one, that just blew my mind.
Also if Ayla and Rob made an actual instrumental jam together that would be a dream come true.
The xylo/vibraphone mix-up hurt me in my core... it's a good thing I love you, Rob
cool Jessica got a taste of what First of October feels like
