Nice interview! I think Mike was just talking about creating a tune inspired by turning a phrase from Bach’s Toccata upside down, rather than literally inverting the original tune. If anyone’s interested, here’s a cool “upside down” version of Mike’s tune, which sounds different to Bach: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pXxBjZzhfLc.html

I wish he hadn't joked about this and said it was "upside down". Now loads of people seem to think that's literally true, when it isn't. It has similarities, that's all.

Keith Emerson was the one who literally knew how to play Bach backwards 😉

@@Gobeadell Haha, yes indeed! I used to play Hammond in a band and I've tried that myself. It's not easy...

Clever. But I feel a little bit betrayed actually.... Pretending it was an Original Tune when it's someone else's only played in reverse. That's deceptive at the very least.

Goes to show how influential classical music has been to new generations of music. Take for example, the Star Wars theme had elements of Holst’s Mars and Korngold’s King’s Row theme. (Learned from watching TwoSetViolin) IMO, if you’re able to create something different from an original tune, that counts as original.

It's not unoriginal or deceptive. He told you what it is. Music doesn't exist without foundations or other people doing the notes before them. You listen to music and it enables you to build on that foundation and create your own.

Reality doesn't give you an infinity to work with, there are only so many melodies.

@macronencer 8 месяцев назад

He was joking. It's not literally Bach upside down, it's just slightly similar, i.e. inspired by it. I know - I play the toccata and fugue in D minor on my piano regularly, and I've checked the music.
