Master Beat-Box Comedian | Reggie Watts | Talks at Google

- Опубликовано: 31 май 2010
- Hand-picked by Conan O'Brian as the opening act for his nationwide comedy tour, Reggie is a tour de force of cutting edge entertainment. He is part musician, part comedian, part tech geek, and 100% unlike anything you've ever seen or heard before.
A master at beat-box and looping, he is probably best known for his music, however his unique style blends familiar elements with novel sounds and allows Reggie to explore unknown territory. His comedy, on the other hand, is a bit harder to explain... let's just say he's a comedian's comedian... trust me, you're gonna love 'em.

"when i was a child, i was very small. or at least... far away"
justizz14 to people who didn't get it. it has to do with scale. the farther the smaller
yeah no shit.
@@amazighennorthafrica6501 Jesus Christ you're about as dumb as the parrot op.
@@amazighennorthafrica6501 i don't get it.
@@amazighennorthafrica6501 People are not smaller the farther they are away....
Reggie Watts is my favorite human.
Me too
Is he a human?
@@wirly- he's half native indian, half white, half black and half human 20:32
He's brilliant 🤸
I wonder how often he hears this lol.
Art like this, and yes it is art, is the purest form. He sometimes uses old beats or progressions as a jumping off point, but now always, and every performance is unique. He grabs whatever is in the aether around him, and plays off the vibe of the audience. He is a master improviser, and his stream of consciousness creations are as honest and creative as you can get. He's brilliant, one of the best artists on the planet in my opinion.
Maïa OurSun you're a towel
Both spellings are acceptable, ask NDT.
+Bob “Smoove” Buerkle "A great virtuoso of our time" is a phrase creeping toward my lips every time I see him perform. A Mozart with a loop pedal.
+Bob “Smoove” Buerkle Well done Bob
+Bob “Smoove” Buerkle
Fuckin hell. Why don't you marry him then!
This will stand as one of the most astounding performances of the 22nd century
wait a minute...
@@bonitobeats *Wait a century
That irish traditional song is hilarious!!!
Hes the best
"When I was a child, I was very small. Or at least, far away." Wonderful line. Reggie Watts is a magical human being that deserves a lot more exposure. He's a bit like an American Bill Bailey, combining music, comedy and surrealist rambles. "Did you whiteboard it?" "Yeah, I whiteboarded the fuck out of it." Simply astounding.
When the banshee sang to the heaven, I absolutely lost it.
Dude I would have lost my shit in the crowd. I have no idea how they kept from laughing. The fucking banshee killed me
24:00 Irish banshee song begins!
And how about when she died right there of a heart attack
Day 2 of watching Reggie non stop my brain is turning to mush
+Wizardcat217 And why would that be ?
An attunement!! 🤯
"what the fuck is the sun? I look at pictures and It doesn't really help at all"
Every time I think I find his best performance on youtube I find another one of him that is even better than the one I saw before! God damn this guy is TOOOOO GOOD
"Did you whiteboard it?" "Yea, I whiteboarded the fuck out of it."
It didn't help though.
Every genre of everything, all in 50mins.
+John Wick To be honest 46 minutes fits in 50 minutes so no untruth is spoken/typed/commented.
The classical opera to the Irish folk song were probably the best moments in musical history. Even tho its supposed to b funny and he's talking gibberish the goosebumps rose listening to that BEAUTIFUL sound.
pretty damn epic.
i was mesmerized and dying of laughter simultaneously
The Irish song!!!! It blew my mind, it cave me chills! I've lOVED Reggie from my first experience of him, in Spatial. He is absosutely a blessing to the world, I love him
Watch his one "Live at Yoko Onos Breakdown"
i lost it at that part. i haven't laughed that much for so long
I SAWWW MYYY BONIE LASSSSSSS
Reggie actively trying to fill time is such a lovely thing
Thanks to your comment I have renewed appreciation for the long pause, shuffling papers, followed by "... What is an algorithm?"
"I don't know if I got the ceramics right." For some reason that line always makes me lose it, no matter how many times I hear it.
After watching reggie watts, every other humorists sound so plain, average and fucking tasteless. This guy is a freaking genius
It's now 6 years later, and Google still hasn't adopted the OWL model...
efstathios mesaretzidis who?
@lbcbobdole Damn, beat me to it
Dammit! It's 2022 and STILL we haven't seen the OWL model...!
this cat is the pinnacle of our species.
He might be an alien eh?
That owl stuff is literally true and accurate! lol how can he just pull that stuff out of nowhere? Brilliance.
he's a god among humans
This guy has infinite material and is always funny.
He doesn't have ANY material
it's all improvisation
So...in other words..he has infinite material essentially. His mind is an infinite plane. No? Ok.
@@nytelyte3979 An infinte plane with the illusion of leading you back to the point of origin. If you realise that it is quite PLaiN to see.
2024 and this still lives in my heart
We should send this to the aliens. Just for shits and giggles.
"but I digress"... lol, no shit Reggie. That should be the name of your next show.
I watch this every now and then whenever my mood needs a quicker picker-upper. This is the Bounty of RUclips videos.
ADD has never been done more Justice. God bless this man. Fan for life.
He is a decompiler of the human language. An outwardly bubbling fountain of ingenious madness. He fuses music genres like a drunken welder but creates masterpieces in this process that stand very lonesome these days in their singularity of quality. This human collapsed into a black hole of brilliance and what we see is only the event horizon; the echo of whats really going on in the supercomputer named head that he is wearing on his shoulders. He is the substance of creativity and the definition of Art.
Peace and Love from Alpha Centauri.
Facts. I say he shows us the 'program' from a dif panel of the prism compared to writers like Terence McKenna.
While most performers are polite, and they create pleasing patterns that the associative matrix of our neural mass can engage with or not, the brave knight of art Reggie Watts runs right up to each of us and sticks his fingers in us. He spreads into our brainspace like a gene therapy tagged onto a modified e. coli made into a slurry that he spits into our ears, infecting our auditory nerves, stimulating patterns in our aural cortex that spread out and dance across our cognitive network in a way both so close to prior experience and at once novel that our usual looping processes of analysis themselves break down, simply letting him and his work flood into us, whether we want it to or not. Tres rude.
there are some innuendos in there that made it enjoyable to read
yet u have no likes and are being negative to a joke someone else was saying when they were in a good mood. How does it make u feel that people like you and your attitude cause pain and negative feelings or energy if u will in this world? oh wait don't answer that its a rhetorical question due to your negative comment, I do not care and I'm sure no one else does at this point.
LOVE YOUR COMMENT BRO/SIS!!!! KEEP UP THE HUMOR YOURE AWESOME!!!! you beat me in the whole word wiz thing I use to be awesome lol now I just go blank all the time lol
There was a point in this video, I forget where, where I stopped laughing and my mouth was just hanging open. My brow furrowed further and further and my brain strained to keep up. Fucking incredible.
that little green box of magic he has... you are the most talented person i have seen reggie we love u!!
As a long-time Reggie fan, the most surreal thing was the honest Q&A at the end haha
right!
An algorithm is someone who feels good on a rainy day
Speaking of Reggie Watts *EHM...CLEARS THROAT* -Greetings Beautiful soul! Lol (forgive me abit i know I am not exactly what you may have come here for ..) but my name is Ibn Orator...I am an Avant-Garde, introspective & Political Hip Hop Artist from New Haven CT. I've recently released a project titled "The Fishbowl Syndrome" that is centered around the topic of our mental health and art; how they intertwine in experience or how they are sometimes viewed here in America;to which my first debut music video "The Horse on a Trampoline" works showcase on the spectrum of my own experiences with it, that i feel fans alike of FKA twigs, Janelle Monae , EarthGang, Flying lotus, Childish Gambino or those of Bjork, Logic , Lupe Fiasco, & Reggie Watts may resonate with...id like to share this with you by giving a warm welcome to my Channel to not only, like and subscribe but to comment with genuine feedback.

All the best

P.S. Im aware that for some us, if not all, are having a hard time this year..so id like to say that i love you very much, if you haven't heard it from anyone, and that things are about to change as they always do, for better or worse….#godspeed..
a revelation , all my life I have been trying to make sense of everything & considering it's all a big joke . Now I know.
yep. You might wanna check out Albert Camus for a clearer revelation of the absurdity of it all. :)
This blows my mind
22:08 through 22:47 that's like... all classical training. some of those runs are so difficult, and he did a really really difficult jazz run. reggie is the man.
He is a master of saying something that makes no sense at all, and is incredibly profound at the same time.
he is a genius. Don't think he will ever be able to repeat any of his performances.... he rocks!!!
20:49 - 26:45 that whole performance is the most incredible powerful amazing genius thing i've ever witness
I listen to it at least once a day along with the first one "cultural song" idky..it makes me really appreciate the absurd genius of it.
Reggie is a Google search engine all by himself.
the first song is so dope. The talent that he possesses and yet it feels like he doesn't take himself seriously at all. That's why he's so dope.
I think the best way to appreciate this is every couple of minutes step back and ask 'wtf am I watching' then get sucked back in for 2 min.
+flopinator also turn on closed captions for expert mode.
One does Not need to ask anything Because of the answer that's already given before one Can ask. Boom.
just like taking acid.
His Irish ballad at 24:05 is amazing.
Thank. You. Reggie.
The last time I saw you I hugged you in Pioneer Square in Portland after you guys played that free show. That was a Long. Time. Ago.
"Until the Wolf from Alpha engine becomes artificially aware of itself" 🤣. Killed me!
I feel like this is just one train of thought, but he's so brilliantly articulate that he can voice it all in such unbelievable detail.
Reggie Watts is my Favourite Human,.. hands down
You assume he's ours! 🤣
Most likely AT LEAST an 8th dimensional being.
„As a child I was very small.. or at least far away..“ 😂😂
my god this guy has such amazing energy, i cant stop watching his vids. Such a top bloke
Reggie watts is like an intellectual person gone crazy, but used it to his advantage.
That first song was so feel good I think it might be my favorite Reggie Watts improv
Everything Reggie creates is both so foreign and familiar it messes my brain up lol
Every single time i listen to this man i have a kool-aid grin plastered on my face
Same here fellow human😊❤
I teared up a little bit. This man is life
"It is that person from which whenst we would not know as though he would say with own words doth baited breath if she did doth lay in the sun did she not see the smiling of that natural landscape she did within be.. her.. there.. a lot." Hahah such a literary genius
Lost it at "what it be about 'n shit" haha
Esmund Frazensnätch was a visionary and I'm glad they're finally getting the praise they deserve.
19:47 "There was a floor and a ceiling and the structure that make sure them those thing stay separated" Epic Epic Epic
Outstanding 🔥🌟🔥
This is like a tuning a radio into to the thought process of random people on the street, so creative.
The Irish banshee song is beautiful
come here after listening to marc rebillet
Thank you Reggie!
Greetings, Sherry.
Holy shit! That Irish song was beautiful!
I need a full transcript of this. Priceless.
Reggie's improvisations sound like early versions of Chat GPT responding to a question
28:08 is the best part
The bit about the banshee was brilliant. I don't know why but when he said "and she died right there of a heart attack" at about 26:28 I just had to pause and laugh it out for a good five minutes, it was just so good.
Whoever did the captions good job😂
Man his transitions are on point
reggie watts is cool af
i love when i stumble upon a good 45 minute reggie set.
this is one of my FAVS!
Surreal! Toooooooooooo good!
Love it!
Omg! Reggie you are the best! One of a kind there's billions of people in the world and you and the best!
Awesome hairrrr!
..oh and the music is good too
Coming back to this clip all the time to listen to the doowop.
It's genius how you can click at any point of the video and it sounds like it's in the middle of a coherent story. ;D
Very cool....such a clever funny guy 😂
Love Reggie, hilariously talented guy!
"Really good shit."
Reggie is so genius that we are not able to tell how much genius he is.
I think this might be the most incredible thing I've ever seen.
"We enter a new phase of consciousness" this guy is talented and smart.
If he made a CD I would buy it so I can listen to it to put me in a cheerful mood.
04:07..brilliant Sir Ian McKellan tones!!! this guy is simply out there on his own..live Reggie..love Reggie..complicated, funny man.
Thank you for cutting to the good stuff!
reggie makes it seem like he can create infinite masterpieces
10:38 is my favorite song. So chill up beat positive and happy sounding
This entire video has inspired me to keep spreading the power of knowledge to people. Reggie Watts speaks of so many things that we as humans all have the ability to grasp, we just have to learn a little more than we think we can. Reggie's seriously on tee with everything people should do in order to "wake up". The 2012 thing he was talking about, look it up!
lmao the first time i watched this, i decided i was too stupid to understand wth was going on. this is so good
I love this man!!!!
Since I started watching Reggie more often, youtube suggests me every video he's ever made every day. And I'm totally okay with that.
I love how he changes his accent like 3 times.
This guy is a legend.
The guy introducing Reggie is killing it! Hilarious!!!
It’s like watching the most beautiful and hilarious lava lamp. My heart is full and content.
I've watched about 5 hours of this prodigy and I have not seen one piece of recycled material in his act.
"Bequeath thee in sheath" hahahaha
did she not know?
A genius! :) And Inspiring! "People would say to me, 'Stop doing that'......kayyyy.....". HAHA! :)
reggie is definitely an old soul...
