Music is a language and if you know a few basic rules of said language you can converse with others. Well.. thats the dry version. The cool version is that it is pure magic where warlocks connects their hearts and souls to the instrument and pulls their emotions to the instrument straight from the source. Literary letting god himself use their vessels to play through them. I like both versions lol

I was thinking the same. I visited the cave about 12 years ago, and when I looked back on the video I took I wondered if I could even get an impulse response of the cave out of it, but that video was made with a super cheap digital camcorder from 2008. Now I'm imagining all you could capture with good mics in there.

@GuyDude-hk8uy Год назад

I was really hoping they'd record each of the 36 notes individually at some point in the video so they could be used for samples. One could of course pick one of the keys in the video as the base sample and transpose it; but that's defeating the purpose really being that each note has a timbre all its own, even moreso than you'd usually expect. Hopefully someone will do that one day so this beautiful instrument can be used with samplers or to make a VST.

I'm a musician - a singer - and if anyone is wondering how these two could create music together having never rehearsed together, we - musicians - have an ability to 'read' one another when we shift into music mode. It's something that can't really be explained. It's more felt than anything. Those who are trained can 'hear' each other more clearly using that skill and knowledge of music, but anyone with musical talent has that innate skill. I have a powerful need to sing in this cavern now.

Pepe Deluxe made an awesome song on this organ! It's called "In The Cave"! They are amazing and use tons of weird/antique/unique instruments!

@Metaphizzle Год назад

Yes! What's crazy is they originally composed "In the Cave" for their 2007 album _Spare Time Machine_ but when they asked about recording on the Great Stalacpipe Organ, they found out it was under repairs. So they chose to drop "In the Cave" from _Spare Time Machine_ and use the song on their next album instead. Said next album, _Queen of the Wave_ wound up being an adaptation of a mystical novel from the 1800s... which just happened to feature a scene with an organ recital inside a cave. This coincidence was just too good to pass up. So when they finished the rest of _Queen of the Wave_ and heard the Great Stalacpipe Organ was _still_ under repair, this time they waited for the repairs to finish. They delayed the album two years just so they could include that song, played on the proper instrument.

Of course, the sound occurred along with the sounds of the organ she was playing. I never knew there could be something like this.

This is...just...so amazing. That little bit of playing you guys did made me feel like I'm touring the caves myself, with a whole story splayed out before me. Thanks for granting us access for such wonderful instruments!

The last piece you played is so peaceful and resonates perfectly in the cave. ❤

This is a certified Scallon classic.

The music that came from this is so beautiful to me, I think it should be played through the cave at all times, feel like I’m back in my nostalgic days of Minecraft

Such a pure natural tone from the rocks mixed with an industrial sound from the solenoids

I visited the caverns as a child and have always wanted to go back with some instruments. This is incredible.

From a production standpoint this video took a ton of work. Mixing the delicate sounds of a cave with voices and a guitar is crazy. Great work!

I've been using these videos as part of our home schooling music education while we eat lunch. My kids have learned so much and love it. They want to play all the interesting instruments Rob has introduced us to.

You kept that footage in where the fan asked for a pic, and I'm certain that fact made his whole freakin' year dude. So cool.

My mom went here when she was a kid and still has records of the music that they played back in the late 70's.

I am now patiently waiting for you to create the ultimate piece using as many unique instruments as you can giant Bass Sitar, shovel, Carillon bells, the cave organ, glass armonica, pipe organ and so much more.

In spite of all that is wrong in the world, videos with people like this, making new sounds, discovering new worlds of sound on the spot - this makes life good. Thank you, Rob.
