Blue Man Group: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2016
- September 26, 2016 by BOB BOILEN • They came, they measured, and they returned to perform a show like no other. It was the great NPR Tiny Desk Takeover by Blue Man Group.
If you've not seen this performance ensemble and their production in New York, Las Vegas, Orlando, Boston, Chicago or Berlin, then you've missed a night of magical fun. These Blue Men may never say a word, but the performances make for poignant looks at who we are as humans. They also make unusual music on instruments of their own design.
Josh Rogosin, our engineer for the Tiny Desk, first saw them in their early days, some 25 years ago at New York's Astor Place Theatre. He told me how the Blue Men would retrofit some of their theatrical magic - including their custom-made instruments, confetti cannons and streamers - to fit this small desk space.
Every band that plays the Tiny Desk must work within the restrictions of the space. So instead of installing their entire signature PVC instrument, what ended up behind the desk was about a third of it. On the right side of the desk, their Shred Mill makes its internet debut: It's a drum machine triggered by magnets that changes rhythm depending where they are placed on the home-made variable-speed conveyor belt. They also invented something called a Spinulum, whose rhythmic tempo is controlled by rotating a wheel that plucks steel guitar strings. (You can read a full description on the instruments below.)
In the end the Blue Men and their dressed-down accompanists performed a Tiny Desk concert like no other. I've been familiar with their music since my days as director of All Things Considered in the 1990s, when I would play their tunes between news stories. Seeing all this come to life (and I know this is true for Josh, as well) was simply unforgettable. From the unique sounds of the PVC to the strumming sounds of the Spinulum to their "Meditation For Winners" mantras, you'll get a taste of why this troupe's art is so universal and so much fun.
THE INSTRUMENTS
(as told to us by the Blue Man Group)
Chapman Stick: A combination of a guitar, a bass guitar, and a washboard, the Chapman Stick is 10 strings and all neck. While it can be played with fingers, we often bow the Stick with a bass string. This method, pioneered by Blue Man Group, is called the Mandelbrot Stick Technique.
Cimbalom: An old hammered chromatic string instrument from Hungary that we gave a plywood update to. It's normally played gently with soft mallets, but Blue Man Group hits it aggressively with drumsticks.
Shredmill: Making its internet debut, this new Blue Man Group creation is a treadmill-shaped, electro-mechanical sequencer that a Blue Man (or anyone else) can use to create rhythmic patterns. Placing and/or moving the Shred Mill's tiny little magnets in order to change the sequence ("shredding") is dangerously addictive. If you are ever presented with the opportunity to shred, proceed at your own risk.
Spinulum: Have you ever watched Wheel of Fortune and thought to yourself, "I wonder what would happen if I took that wheel, shrunk it down to about a foot in diameter, mounted it to a stand, and replaced that little white flipper with steel guitar strings?" Us too! The Spinulum is a brand new Blue Man Group instrument that is part slide guitar, part bicycle wheel, and 100 percent dynamite!
PVC: Blue Man Group's signature instrument is comprised of several lengths of polyvinyl chloride pipe that make an almost synthesizer-like sound when struck with a closed-cell foam rubber paddle. This performance only includes the center, high-octave section of the PVC. This is not because we have a problem with the other sections of the PVC. We actually really like them. There just wasn't enough space. It's a tiny desk.
MIDI PVC: The signature Blue Man Group PVC instrument shrunk down and electrified.
SET LIST:
"Vortex"
"The Forge"
"Meditation For Winners"

But they're blue
@@cupuacu4life13 indeed!
I actually have no memory of life before the blue man group, they’ve just always been, time has no effect on blue men.
How old are you? lol
Yeah there are records of them playing in ancient Babylon
@@NueThunderKing That we have found yet
For some reason i can pinpoint exactly when i first became aware of them, it was when they appeared on an episode of Shake it Up (or some Disney channel show)
@@soopperson5953 oh wait you’re right it was icarly i think
This is earth radio. And now, here’s human music.
Hungry for Apples?
Wubba lubba dub dub
Yes!.... Yes!...... Yes....... My man!
Thank you
Human music video ? I LIKE IT
Their longevity is the most mind blowing part of these blue gentlemen. How they are still going strong is beyond me. Good for them legit.
There’s like 35 different blue men alone in the US, I’m sure there’s a lot of stuff happening behind the scenes to keep the grooves groovin.
there's lkke 60 of them.
It's a performance art group, not a 3 man band.
@@MinkJu yeah that’s cause it’s a 4 man “band” just joking but it’s 4 that travel in the touring cast. Which those are we don’t know but those are the ones people think of when anyone says “blue man GROUP” but yeah 35 in total
Its an idea and a concept that a lot of people adhere to as an artist expression rather than a specific group of artists portraying their work through time like how it traditionally go, they are a bit like that too its just their performance art is centered on counter-individualist and counter-recognition and its overall a big clash with the US's overall values on celebrity cult and personality worship of their entertainment scene in general.
For a group that's internationally renowned for their performances, they still somehow seem underappreciated.
their greatest talent is keeping those blank expressions
Very cool group of guys. My kind of people
+headcoLd 7 that's why they're the blue man group. blue is the color for calm cool and collected.
Ryne Santos you mean that they aren't masters of time and space. There you go blowing my misconceptions. :p
There are 3 founding members that make the music but there are more people that actually perform on stage.
Jeremy I agree
Imagine you're an alien and this is the only video of humans that you're shown
Kyle Hills THAT IS THE MOST PERFECT COMENT EVER
We can only hope they witness something as marvelous as the BMG first
Then the aliens are seeing humanity at it's most creative, comedic, passionate, and inventive. Far better than giving the aliens a view of, say, the White House, Congress, and the Supreme Court, where humanity is at its lowest, darkest, greediest, and most heartless.
mars attacks ak ak ak funny
What if we're the freaks and the aliens are the normal ones
The two others are initiates, they haven’t earned their colors yet.
Lol
🤣🤣🤣💀
They just play already well invented instruments, they are from here, from earth. So white faces are human, compared to blue aliens...
Or something
But one earned being bald, he is one step closer
Hahahaha
I remember seeing them in Vegas when I was a child it was one of my favorite experiences. Especially when they flung all the toilet paper
They play like every day in Berlin. I saw them as a kid, it was such a weird experience
I saw them too, it was awesome
I saw them a few years back at a small venue in New York, the toilet paper part was so sick 😭
Those rock shows were so epic!
@@KingMori63400 Great to hear that! Rock On
I saw them at Astor Place 25 years ago as well. I took my then-4-year-old son, who fell asleep half way through the show. One of the Blue Men walked by and painted his sleeping nose with blue pigment ( I have the picture from later, on the side walk). We later learned they were referring to him backstage during the show as "angel baby".
bro why did i imagine it as god walking upon u guys lol thats so cool tho
OMG THAT IS SO CUTE
Not only master musicians but master human beings as well...thank you for sharing I like them even more now!
@@seyoon9000 when i told you i SCREAMED because me too 🤣🤣
Oooh that is an adorable experience and story. 🤩💖
"What instrument do you play?"
Me: "I play Slide unicycle"
Is that thing realy cald a slide unicycle because i realy want to get that thing
"What instrment do you p..."
Me: "Namaste namasta namacusa I'm a winner at MEDITATION!"
@@linorow2835 😂😂
Far out man I play PVC pipes we should jam sometime!
Dude, that's a crank banjo. your welcome.
I’ve had the pleasure of performing alongside Blue Men Group, at an event in 2019 for my high school. One of the strangest experiences ever. While I was backstage for most of their set, my group actually got a green room next to them - and I got a glimpse of them unmasked! It’s actually a rotating group of different guys. I met one of them in the bathroom, of all places. Once they’re in character they don’t break it at all, so he didn’t speak to me, but he did leave a palm print on me and another cast member’s face. Funnily enough, I didn’t get a good view at any of them directly, but a few of them most definitely have busy beards under the mask. Quite a moment for sure!
Blue men in a green room
When they performed in Chicago back in the nineties, after the show, there was an opportunity to ask one of them, still in character, if I might touch his head. He obliged. The blue stuff felt not unlike the dashboard of my car, 😂.
I said to him, “I know you’re not up for a chat, but I do wonder if it gets super hot beneath the blue.”
Without so much as a smile, he nodded in the affirmative. 💙
Who would have thought that a metal gear grinding against a steel cable would make the most mesmerizing sound I have ever heard.
totally thought the same thing
I'm definitely coming back to watch this stoned
Mason Buchanan same bruh
Lolol
Dude
You’ve just read my mind! Hahahaha
Watching this while smoking a joint, 420/69 would recommend.
The skill and performance is genius. The gimmick wouldn’t work unless they were master musicians, and they are
So... the gimmick doesn’t work ?
@@rrendre4138 ?
People throwing around the term genius start getting on my nerves. The whole concept is wildly outdated.
Also - all those wonky contraptions are just alternative variations of preexisting intruments and the music is not even very good.
So...
Not genius. Doesn't take a genius to put a basic pattern into a step sequencer. What is a genius you ask?
Wikipedia has some answers. Maybe not the ones you look for...(Batman yadayada...)
Wait bbn till you find out that the blue man group isnt always the same three guys. You could become a blue man if you had the right body size.
@@MrKulturembargo I'm sorry, but I don't see anyone putting anything into a step sequencer in this video. The definition of genius is "exceptional intellectual or creative power or other natural ability." Which these men display wonderfully!
The idea that the blue man group is an SCP that you have to just work around is pretty legit.
SCP ?
@@johntilghman okay so imagine that once a month these guys appear for 24 hours in your house, you can't physically stop them. They only wish to create music and will not cease or leave till the entire 24 hours are up. At which point they disappear. Nobody knows where they come from or where they go. They only seem to make an appearance at the homes of people who are on the edge of an existential crisis. (Its in situations like this you would usually call the foundation)
@@dallasprice4779 I have an idea now. But I still don't know what SCP stands for.
@@johntilghman
Secure, Contain, Protect. Think of it like animal control for eldritch entities ranging from harmless to world-killing.
@@bubsyfinnigan4462”Animal control for eldritch entities,” is the best way I have ever heard them described. I’m using this from now on.
So cool! I can imagine how much fun the engineers had trying to get all of those unique instruments on mic or in the mixer.
Fun is definitely a word to use
I love the random hammered dulcimer! It's so great to see such an obscure instrument!
@@hotasice6475it would definitely be a worthwhile experience as an engineer. Blue man group uses instruments that are so wacky, I imagine there’s a different methodology to micing/mixing everything that would be cool to learn.
@@jerphf2096 you're probably right actually
Feels like they're desperately tryna communicate to us about the end of the world but nobody's listenin we just clap and dance
Well, you’re not off. They have warned us of Global Warning at their concerts.
100%
Bruh
Lol lol lol looooool 😂😂😂
Well, yes...
Twelve minutes of performance, two hours of cleanup.
Thats art at its finestt true passion..
It was worth it
LOL, yup
😆
Discrimination is not a right. That's what she said
I saw them in Las Vegas. It was an experience unlike anything else. I enjoyed their small segment on the eyes rods and cones to perceive the world around me. They also incorporate humor and their audience into their music which adds the idea that each show is truly unique.
I haven't seen the Vegas show, but Rods and Cones is one of my favorite songs by them, so it's cool to hear they're still doing that one there!
I saw their show in Chicago back in 08 and it was one of my favorite shows I've been to. No Rods and Cones there, but the show was still really cool
Their music is so therapeutic and peaceful it’s makes me feel like everything’s gonna be okay lol
Dose 🙄
So true, I fully agree💐
It's like a support group for depressed men
YOU ARE THE BEST AT FEELING PEACEFUL! YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY DESTROYING THAT SENSATION! Namaste Namasta Mamamoo koosa!
Everything will be okay. :)
Every time I see these guys I think of David Cross in Arrested Development.
You need to hit the method one clinic
My man tobias funke really grinding his way up
I just blue myself.
YES
😂😂😂

Any chance to buy this music somwhere on the web?
@@danielefasano8485 The group has a couple of albums out.
That pipe instrument is so distinct. It’s amazing that so many different artists have donned the blue and yet the sound can stay so consistent
There's a video/interview with the guy from Portlandia and his experience working with the Blue Man Group. He finishes his talk with something along the lines of "I learned that as humans, we all want to be entertained. To just unwind/unplug/ etc. And be entertained." It was really interesting, these guys don't just perform for us, but for our wellbeing
this is true
Acting while playing custom instruments while doing a happenning with the crowd. THATS A PERFORMANCE!! I clapped at my screen, Jesus...
this is my first time ever hearing Blue Man Group, my only other exposure being Arrested Development. this is BLOWING my mind
Saz you blowhard!
Im afraid I blue myself
They did an episode on iCarly too 😁
Same the dude with the mustache. Sorry I don't remember his name
Tool made me come here to this video and check out Blue Man Group.
this is the first 12 minutes of me being exposed to the blue man group and i would love to say
im hooked.
they are great in person with all the cool production stage effects
See them in Vegas. Epic experience.
They have 3 albums, and they're all great. The first and third are all instrumental, and the 2nd has a bunch of guest vocalists and is a concept album.
I remember they were on a show I used to watch as a child & became fascinated with them ❤
NPR never ceases to blow us away with their cultural variety.
Well your paying for it regardless of if you like it or not so good thing you do like it I guess.
As long as they can do it from the Liberals side
Yes, thats what I've come to love about NPR
@@jamescooper2618 , anybody who actually listens to NPR knows that they work hard to present very balanced programming, present all kinds of viewpoints, etc. Unfortunately, there is a mantra repeated by some that NPR is just liberal. Ain't so.
@@youtuuba Well one literal definition of "Liberal" is: BROAD-MINDED
especially : not bound by authoritarianism, orthodoxy, or traditional forms
So technically they are liberal, just the literal sense and not the political one.
2:47 Those two that are not blue look like they were kidnapped and forced to play the instruments
The bald one looks like he kind of wants to be one of them
@@sebastianmosqueda5959 I wouldn't be surprised if they take turns being the blue men. I imagine getting a day or two off from having to be encased in those masks and makeup would be welcome.
dude looks straight brain washed
*Abducted
Oh that's just something they do, no biggie.....haha I love them man, they create the best sounds and songs!
The innovation that goes into their performances is beautiful
I had the privilege to see them live in Chicago in 2010 while I was an exchange student in the US. My host family took me there and I will always be grateful - it was frickin amazing!!
Seen these guys live twice and both times were a completely different experience. SERIOUSLY underrated group that deserves more credit for not just being musical geniuses, but for also being a great way for people to come together and celebrate!
Saw them once in Boston. Best show ever.
I'll never forget when someone arrived late to the show, everything stopped, camera zoomed in on him with lights and an opera singer came out singing "YOU'RE LAAATE."
Yeah I had no idea this is what they got up to. I thought it was all hitting trash cans with sticks or something random. I could get lost in this...EDIT: I take that back there ain't much substance in the music....imo. Not bad though and not at all what I thought about them. Freaking media making them look like ridiculous......EDIT: and now i put back what i took... This is great 11:22
@@roja88 lololol. Awesome
agreed!
That's weird because both of the times I saw the show it was basically the same show.
@@roja88 Unfortunately that's also part of the show, it happens every time.
Blue Man group went from chill trance and turned it into a rave in less than 12 minutes.
Yeah!
True
Saw these guys live for the short time they were in Toronto. Super cool music, and you can call it a gimmick if you want, but they were hilarious. They handed out ponchos to everyone in the first several rows on the east it. We were front row center. Got covered in some sort of goop lol. Pretty sure it was squished bananas.
I happened to see them live back in 2006, and my life hasn’t been the same since. Blue Man forever.
Good to see Tobias Funke follow his dreams!
i was lookin for this
Ah! What a reference! Thanks
Autofellatio?
"I blue myself."
LMAO I thought the same too!
They all are acting like it’s their first time seeing anything.
Prove to me that it isn't.
If you ever been to Vegas and actually seen them you would understand it's all the part of their act
That's the blue men for you, they're amazing actors.
It’s brilliant isn’t it!
thats their thing dude
So much nostalgia from this. I remember watching America's got Talent with my mom and seeing them win, then visiting Vegas and seeing them plastered on every wall. Glad to know they're still going strong !!
I've never heard any of BMG's music, and I have to say, this is amazing. Funny, weird, unique, breathtaking. What an amazing group of artists.
The first two pieces of music were absolute genius and i don't see any commenters saying that i don't know why
People come to a Blue Man show for the odd blue men, they stay for the even odder expressions on the blue men's faces.
The Forge is an amazing song!
This performance blue my mind!
warnaks1 u won the comment section 😭
aw you take your chance don't you?
Plaid shirt guy is a BEAST on the tambourine 😂
Weird. A couple of them painted themselves white.
Are they going for relatability?
fun response!
Ive been to tons of concerts with the white man group. Not as good.
SPARKY SINN I respectfully disagree with you.
😂
My previous perception of Blue Man Group as a 'gimmick' act has now dissolved. I may not be so dismissive of their work in the future . Great vid, Great performance. 👏
sorry but, have you not heard of these guys before? they ALWAYS perform at theaters around the world, ESPECIALLY in Las Vegas
Yeah the entirety of these guys are immensely talented and some of their stuff is pretty funny.
Their show in Vegas is pretty exceptional if you ever get the chance. The level of skill and perfection is astounding and it's also just fun entertainment.
It's still a gimmick show. I don't know of any other band that dresses up in bald caps and paints themselves blue.
I bet you're a lot of fun at parties, just respect the talent and move on.
i never understood these dudes as a kid. but now 9 months deep into being 30 and i finally get it
Back here again. Remember seeing them in 2005 in Vegas and what a show!
Guy on the left is a blue man in training, hasn't earned his paint yet
what about the guy on the left?
ActionGirafe
Y
still puttin in work crippppppp
ActionGirafe 😂😂
Why'd you put on the paint?
I been seeing & hearing about these guys everywhere my whole life since I was a child first time I ever watch a video of them & wow I see the magic now
The tightness and almost, almost slip in beat makes it so appealing to listen to. That’s true performance of listening and following rhythm! It’s truly unbelievable.
They must have earphones under that blue skin

These are men who had to perfect the art of performing live, and it is apparent.
they aren't men. they are aliens. GET IT RIGHT.
Those two non blue people make the band look weird
(OMFG never thought I would get this much likes thank you good music people)
Was wondering why those guys aren't blue too.
it is always just three blue men on stage. but the band is bigger. at some shows there are around 10-15 musicians on stage.
You can call them white, its ok, we really don't get offended by it.
Joel Kinabo the blue people make the band look weird
Luis Pinheiro wow 🤣 idiot 👏🏾
These guys are cientists of percursion. It's amazing. I saw them when I was a child and I was impressed, today I'm able to understand better the level of genius and exploration this takes to be achieved.
best experience of my life was seeing these dude lives
I can't watch the BMG without thinking of Arrested Devopment.
“I just blue myself”
Best ending to any tv season.
I thought it was a blue man group not a group for men who are blue.

Same!

I'm still hopeful to see a blue man with a mustache one of these days.
Yet again, huge respect to the audio engineer Josh Rogosin. The dynamics are so good on the ears!
Rare occasion where the Chapman Stick is the most normal instrument in a band..,
King Crimson
Tis' the life of Blue Man Group
I would say the drums were, but close enough :)
This comment killed me. Lol
The most unique music group out there, they really stand out among the music world
gives me Phil Collin vibes
Is it cuz they r bald
must have been fun mixing this session
Creative with a capital C and quite mesmerizing. Weird without being annoying. I love it!
You should have seen the whole show, if they are still doing it! I saw it in NYC with the original cast on Lafayette Street.
cREATIVE
Every single NPR session the NPR guy on the sound desk is a master at his craft.
Agreed. If I were a famous singer, I'd hunt the sound person down and pay them millions to do my sound for me. It's such a perfect.mix.
@@ArcadiaJade I just watched you sing, it wont be long before that dream is reality :)
Amazing, I love these guys!! I've seen them in concert about 10 years ago and it was incredible!
I love tiny desk. I ve gotten entertainment, talent, the best of the best. I can’t help but say this one brought me all that and a tinge bit extra humor. These are some of the best that come across my feed. I thank you NPR
Blue Man Group have perfected performance art that it's mainstream. It's amazing to see them perform in an office building.
my favourite part is the level of integrity and character these guys maintain throughout the entire thing. really adds an aire of mysticism to the performance
ok that was brilliant, and it felt like two minutes.
Years and years of performing hone them to this level of both absurdness and greatness
Id like to see blue man group collab with gorillaz, i think the sounds would be epic
seconded
what about daft punk?
Either of those two names collabing with anyone would be epic.
I'd like to see an Amon Tobin collab.
That'd be great

I swear these guys came and performed at my tiny elementary school of like 600 students like 15 years back
i believe the same thing at my school also
I believe they started as a street performance act and then people loved it so much they started touring and then that got so big they had to hire other blue men so they could be in multiple places at once.
That turning one string thing would make such a good post rock-instrument.
Hmm...what is it called?!?
Would like to know too
I'm already planning to build something like that. I'd probably add a speed controlled motor to the circle.
Not the Stick, the thing with the crank, single string and sliding capo.

Absolutely amazing
this is the most human yet alien thing I've ever experienced and I love it.

Idk what you’re talking about. I never suspected him of being a human.
He’s painted himself even whiter instead now

Well done, man.
I just blue myself!
I see what you did there. Kudos, good sir. 👏
i saw them live this year with front row seats, most amazing thing i've ever seen
It’s the crowd interaction for me. So fun to watch.
Saw them live in Vegas. Front row tickets! They are freakishly scary but talented and funny. 😂

Man... there's just something about the combination of music & visuals that makes every BMG performance... mesmerizing ❤
I can't be the only that wants a Daft Punk X Blue Man Group collab
and Kraftwerk too!
Blank Face there's so many different blue man groups. Which one do you choose? The original New York one? Or one from a completely different country.
the one that feature tobias
Blank Face holy shit I was thinking that the whole video
Yes, there are many Blue Men at their different shows, but there are the three original guys who came up with the concept of Blue Man Group and who write the music for their shows along with other collaborators. They are the ones who appear in this video and in most of their major media appearances as BMG. That's who should collaborate with Daft Punk.
SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT
Earth would survive.
Fuck, Best comment ever. And I really didn't excpect found it.
AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAJAJA
Hahahahahhahahaha awesome
E2070Swn It’s time to get shhhhhwwwwwifty lol
I just got back from New York and saw them at Astor Place Theatre where it all started and they've been playing since 1991. Despite them being massively mainstream by now, it felt completely experimental, cutting edge and like underground guerilla theatre. It was absolutely incredible. Go see them. ❤
Великолепно, браво ребята👏👏👏
Excellent mix. Perfect volume levels on every individual instrument!!!!🤯

Such amazing positivity! The world needs more like this.
Loved the artisanal drum machine / step sequencer.
Blue Man Group is the kind of band you have play at an acid party. so interesting.
I always have thought as the Blue Man group as a bit of gimmick but wow these guys are extraordinary
It’s hypnotic
The Monkeys were a gimmick, The Blue Man Group is the real thing!!
Why oh why do I love them so?
Great open! Their musical creativity is awesome.
