    What has blown Africa back in to pop mainstream? Over the last couple years it seems to be everywhere.

    Everything in English apart from GLOCKENSPIEL 1:40

      Its also English. A glockenspiel is (according to Wikipedia) a percussion instrument composed of a set of tuned keys arranged in the fashion of the keyboard of a piano. The origin of the word is (obviously) German.

      According to the videos posting time TSV should be the first one? But i think it doesn’t matter😂 what’s more important is the music that everyone enjoy 🤤

      Did a little researching, while the chopsticks video was the one that inspired this video, the guy who made it made the first editing skills video in September of 2018, and the first TSV video was in August 2018. I can't seem to find if TSV were inspired by someone else though 😊 I love this kind of content so I don't really care!

      Nice detective work! We first saw this human synthesizer type thing about 15 years ago at a concert in Perth. I remember thinking how random it was at the time but here we are haha!
