The little bit of that identical “snap” sound that it has simultaneously with each individual tune is whatnmakes this particularly unique imo. Its like an instrument played with a crew of people speedily snapping along to each individual key.
I've been experimenting with popsickle stick kalimbas as well and something I found is that when you cut the sticks thinner for the high notes, they resonate better
The same concept applies to (acoustic) stringed instruments. If you make the face thinner, the instrument will resonate better. This technique was popular with Romani and Vaudeville musicians, who would take a really cheap instrument and sand the face down until it was paper thin. This resulted in violins that sounded like a Stradivarius or Cremona -- but had the approximate lifespan of a mayfly.
May I ask… Do you mean to make the popsicle sticks thinner (making them more two dimensional, so shaving them) or do you mean thinner like using the original sized popsicle sticks (not as wide)? I’m TRYING (poorly) to ask about changing thickness or width.
My mom had a chemical accident at her work and wrecked her sight, so she gave me all of her craft supplies. Since then, I have been trying to come up with ideas to use a massive amount of popsicle sticks. Now I have an idea for something. Thank you! Also my mom can see most colors again just no fine details. She is still making art too. Just different art than she used to.
@@1ksubswithonevideochallenge745 She got most of her vision back but she has trouble seeing colors and fine details. Undeterred though, she is making art once again. Thank you for asking.
I was just thinking the same thing. Right now, it’s just part of the stick that’s vibrating. But if the sticks were attached to a hollow body, like guitar strings are, you should get more volume out of it. And a contact mic on the resonant box would work better. As it is, it’s really only part of each stick that’s vibrating, so a contact mic on the solid wood bits wouldn’t pick up much.
I was also thinking along similar lines. But electronically. I thing a simple 4 diode two transformer ring modulator connected to a cheap mike and a small amplifier would open up an entire new world of electronic music. Cost of a ring mod is less than £7 , amp...about the same, mike....about £3 and a small speaker about £3. So 20 quid would have you up and running.
Wow, so sad to take such a nice warm woody acoustic instrument and tether it to an electronic mic+amp rig in order to get something out of it. I'm much in favour of a soundbox. Giving the popsicles some air in a resonant cavity just brings the thocks to life. And you wouldn't have to go and fetch wires and batteries every time you just wanna jam out on the floor real quick.
At first I was like, "you must've done so much math to figure out where to have each stick clamped down." Then I watched and was like, "oh wait, I forgot, it would be way easier to just tune as you go with an adjustable system like that." I feel like this is a fun project that other people could do as well! I'd love to heard one of these on an album.
Yeah, initially my inner anxiety was going "oh god he's going to need to cut all the sticks individually to tune them and what if he screws it up oh no." Actual way is so much less stressful.
I'll play an instrument out of tune 90% of the time as long as it's not terribly off. And sometimes I'll just play a bit different if it's not too horrible. Being a little off tune kinda makes it a bit more fun and challenging sometimes.
You can say it's "just a kalimba" but you're wholly ignoring at least two important details: 1.) it's chromatic -- sort of unusual for a kalimba 2.) it's arranged as a keyboard instrument, and even has recessed black keys -- not something I've *ever* seen on a kalimba. My gut says that, from the performer's perspective, it's closer to being a keyboard than it is to being a thumb piano; I mean, you didn't have to learn the circle of fifths to figure out where your next note is like you would have to on an array mbira, and you *definitely* would want to use more than just your thumbs to play notes. This instrument makes sound differently than a pianoforte might, but there are a number of historical keyboard instruments that did exactly this. The way the sound is produced matters, but *keyboard instruments are keyboard instruments.* tl;dr this is cool, who cares what it's called
"This creation wouldn't even be in the chordophone family due to no strings, so it'd be some form of plucked idiophone" Probably a lamellophone -- an instrument that makes its sound by the vibration of 'lamella' (that is, 'tongues' that are fixed on one end and free on the other) after the musician depresses and quickly releases (usually in a sliding motion) the free end with a fingernail, finger, or hand. A kalimba/karimba/mbira is one of those, as are whale drums and mouth harps.
Yup. This would fall under the Horbostel-Sachs classification of 122.11 (Plucked idiophone/Lamellophone in the form of a comb with laced on lamellae and without a resonator).
@@jeffsalle8912 Squares vs rectangles, mate: a kalimba is a lamellophone, but not all lamellophones are kalimbas. The one in this video isn't a kalimba, but it *is* another lamellophone... ;)

This happened to me by accident when I was putting a bunch of thin wooden shims on an old stair to even out the level. I stopped building and made songs for a few minutes, revealing what my heart really longs for . . .
Me: It's a 2:30 minute video so it's probably only a demonstration of the final thing. Video: does demonstration of the final thing and proceeds with the build montage of two versions and several more melodys.
This reminded me of my science teacher in high school, Edgar Condy, also known as “The Good Egg”, a catchphrase he used often to express his joy at someone answering a question correctly. He would ‘play’ a long wooden ruler on the edge of his desk and adjust the length to reproduce different notes.
Things like this are the reason I love the internet. Music can be a bit prohibitive at times because of the high cost of the instruments, but now you can watch a two minute and a half video and build yourself your own "piano" with extremely cheap materials that maybe you already have lying around at your home. Amazing.
You can get garageband or Bosca ceol for free, and you could probably find a used harmonica, guitar or keyboard for cheap. But professional equipment though..
I don't know if you've ever examined the keyboard structure of piano keys. But if you notice in an actual piano, they have felt cushioning for all of the keys. You could actually fit a piece of craft felt beneath the backside of your Popsicle sticks to dampen and eliminate the excess vibration. You could also increase the resonant quality of the keys by hollowing out below the keyboard assembly with a router. To eliminate any remaining vibration you could try putting a thin strip of rubber beneath the screw mounts for the keyboard assembly. It would be a simple matter of punching the holes for the screws with a hole punch. Add some small nylon or plastic washers to the heads of the screws to dampen excess vibration even more. The presence of the rubber strip below and the washers above the popsicle keyboard assembly will vastly improve the resonant quality of your keyboard. Anchor what would be the black key assembly on top of the white keys with screws and with a layer of craft felt between the layers to absorb unwanted vibration. Fantastic invention! Try some of my suggestions to see if you can improve how it sounds. Routing out beneath the leading edge of the keys creates a resonance chamber that will amplify the sounds naturally. I'll bet if you follow these steps and experiment, you'd end up with a really playable and fantastic musical instrument. Thanks for this awesome video!!!
For a guy who has spent the better part of his life reading dictionaries and thesauruses, I just can't find enough words to describe how awesome that popsicle stick piano is. Simply delightful.
Yes, though I don't think you can treat it as a real piano or play something written for piano. The notes dies very quick and you can't hold the keys down, it only goes click click cluck it needs something specifically written for it.
@@mofleh177 high bpm songs would be better on this instrument because as you said you can't hold the keys down and when bpm gets higher you basically have to hold the keys less
You know its a banger when the video: • Is at least 4 years old • Has more than 3 million views • Is not searched up by you • Is in your recommended section • Is less than 2 minutes long • Is uploaded to a channel with less than 100k subscribers • Is uploaded to a channel with a very random name
my whole life I thought that song was chopsticks. but a quick youtube check shows it is indeed the flea waltz and chopsticks is an entirely different song. I don't even know what to believe anymore.
wow, so cool! Perhaps clamping it to a large resonator box could give it even more volume/bottom.

It would be a simple matter of punching the holes for the screws with a hole punch. Add some small nylon or plastic washers to the heads of the screws to dampen excess vibration even more. The presence of the rubber strip below and the washers above the popsicle keyboard assembly will vastly improve the resonant quality of your keyboard.
Anchor what would be the black key assembly on top of the white keys with screws and with a layer of craft felt between the layers to absorb unwanted vibration.
Fantastic invention! Try some of my suggestions to see if you can improve how it sounds.
Routing out beneath the leading edge of the keys creates a resonance chamber that will amplify the sounds naturally. I'll bet if you follow these steps and experiment, you'd end up with a really playable and fantastic musical instrument. Thanks for this awesome video!!!
Plot twist:
The piano makes no sound, so he was just making mouth noises
Now That I've Read This Comment, It Actually Sounds Like He's Clicking His Tongue.

_it's all fun and games until the sticks break_ 😏

I can't imagine an instrument where a broken note would be easier to replace. Unscrew, remove, screw back, ready to go.
Just eat another ice-cream and... you're good to go.
@@pafauk361 Okay killjoy... it was a joke. Relax with the sarcasm. 🙄

"Sweet dreams, are popsicle stick piano keys" loved it!😊❤
For a guy who has spent the better part of his life reading dictionaries and thesauruses, I just can't find enough words to describe how awesome that popsicle stick piano is. Simply delightful.
The word you're looking for is wood-tacular
"so what instrument do you play?"
Me : well....
nice copy
POPSICLE STICKS LMFAOOOOOO
would have been really cool to just hear a single chord played at once
Yes, though I don't think you can treat it as a real piano or play something written for piano. The notes dies very quick and you can't hold the keys down, it only goes click click cluck it needs something specifically written for it.
@@mofleh177 high bpm songs would be better on this instrument because as you said you can't hold the keys down and when bpm gets higher you basically have to hold the keys less
@@repxic9314
Maybe, it can be played with mallets.
@@mofleh177 the song “popcorn” would work
@@trevorwilson9229 yeah!
Now that was construction project worth watching. Sounds great for basic materials 🙂
You know its a banger when the video:
• Is at least 4 years old
• Has more than 3 million views
• Is not searched up by you
• Is in your recommended section
• Is less than 2 minutes long
• Is uploaded to a channel with less than 100k subscribers
• Is uploaded to a channel with a very random name
bruh this is only a year old
And this is more than 2 minutes long
verdict: it is exactly 5/7ths of a banger
Plot twist: He is actually just clicking his tongue.

Aside from the whole "it's a kalimba and not that weird" debate, those aren't even popsicle sticks. They are tongue depressors.
just as its debateable of how depressed i am
@@yodawg well thanks to this video my tongue is depressed
You’re a tongue depressor.
@@antoinebugleboy6864 I got a tongue depressor for ya, John.
🤮 just reading that made me gag. The memories of doctors shoving one of those on your gag reflex 🤢
That actually has a really nice sound to it, i like the satisfying pops (no popsicle pun intended)
Did you really just go straight into playing the Mortal Kombat theme? I love that.
Sweet Dreams by Eurythmics 😊
@@nineteenfortyeight that is a good song, but they were on about the song at the intro.
It took me a while to realize what it was, but MK theme sounds actually cool on this.
First few notes "mhmmm, interesting, let's see how this progresses"
Next few notes "Fight!"
-"what instrument do you play?"
- "... well it's complicated"
The flea waltz was why it was in my recommendations. Rest in peace kaede.
I'd love to see someone play actual full on piano songs on this
same. i will play rush e when i make that.

The design reminds me of a kalimba! Like in the way of tuning, and you could definitely make it louder using the kalimba box design ☺️

Nope. Never heard of it.

Reactions to finishing a popsicle:
Everyone: Mmm, that was good.
You: Now I only need to eat 87 more to make a grand piano.
or just buy the popsicle sticks at a craft store.
