- Ten years ago I have filmed this guy at the street. He even tried to sell me his instrument, but i was totally broke, so I couldn't afford it.
Here somebody made a breakcore (jungle? idk) remix on this video - • Balalaika with d̶i̶s̶t...

To anybody who is interested: he is playing a Russian folk song named Korobeiniki, the same song was used as a soundtrack in Tetris.
Ой, полна, полна коробушка,
Есть и ситцы и парча.
Пожалей, моя зазнобушка,
Молодецкого плеча!
Oh so that's why it was so familiar
Hey, is this old man - Carl Fredricksen?! ("UP" Pixar)
I like the way he plays the bass part with his thumb, very cool
Long live Russia
see you all in 10 years when this gets randomly recommended to everyone
See ya
I am just back from 2034... You'll never guess...
for real
no you are not lil bro@@MirlitronOne
Yeah man!
my goofyass was like that sounds like tetris then realised thats prolly where they got it from lmao folk sonh
yep, it's the original!
The original song is called korobeiniki
Tetris was created by a soviet mathematician, so he picked a famous folk song as its melody.
@@EwgenijBelzmann Actually, the song was chosen by Nintendo, specifically for the Game Boy version of the game. Alexey Pajitnov consulted on the gameply, but as far as graphics and sound, the only request I know for sure he made was that they not reference the cold war.
Outside of that, Nintendo just picked things they figured people would associate with Russia. Spaceships, St Basil's Cathedral, Tchaikovsky, and a handful of classic Russian folk songs.
What?
Phil Collins is a great multiinstrumentalist.
I was gonna say!!! 😮😮😮 I could have sworn that was Phil!!😂😂😂 is it really?! Or am I just driving myself up the wall🤷🏼♂️🤔😂

Would love to see a Russian folk rock band that uses guitar pedals on the balalaika
I imagine it would look like that (not so folk, but that balalaika is HUGE) 2.bp.blogspot.com/_BfmuVxzYgGQ/TNdVGNO5jcI/AAAAAAAAAWk/9QXtTSmAD4w/s1600/redddd.jpg
Listen to a band called Yat-Kha, I don't think they use balalaikas, but they use traditional russian/mongolian instruments like morin khuurs, and mix folk music from Tuva (Russia) and from the eastern steppe with classic rock, without ditching the autenticity and spirit. They have a album called "yenisei punk", which is tuvan folk more mixed with rock, and another album, "dalai beldiri", that sounds less western but nonetheless its really beautiful and genuine.
@@foolycooly6738The Red Elvises are the reason I discovered balalaika as an instrument! They have some fun music for sure, as well as representing bass balalaika 😎🔺
@@DjDoggDad i have discovered Red Elvises from the Six String Samurai ost (it is THE best movie ever and i can really recommend it)
Check out The Flying Balalaika Brothers.
Zhenya Rock from The Red Elvises is in it.
I would've probably given him the money and let him keep the instrument, looks like he gets so much fun out of playing
Wait wdym keep the instrument? Is that not his Balalaika?
@@unityfilms3262no it’s mine haha i’m filming i let him try it
jus read the desc@@unityfilms3262
Hes probably saving up for a 4 string instrument
@@unityfilms3262 Desc says he was trying to sell it
this upload reminds me of why UA-cam was great in the first place.
it's just a cool observation I'd have never seen otherwise.
I do understand what u are talking about - youtube seems more like a TV with endless commercials and clickbaits now. But you can still stumble upon some good stuff - this is why i love digging for lost youtube vids.
Amen!

I'm aware of that. I'm speaking more to how it looks like a combination of letters and numbers that make no sense to outsiders, yet make perfect sense to those that are in the know.

Okay this is going to be stuck in my head all day now.

I mean this from the bottom of my heart: this is the most metal thing I've seen since metal music.
He's playing Jimi Hendrix style with his thumb wrapping around the fretboard like that, love his passion
He' s definitely cool but using the thumb for fretting isn't as rare as you might think, for example it is standard technique on Bağlama which predates Hendrix by a few centuries :)
@@yalincokyay I figured it was a common thing with this instrument, I was just making an observation I thought was funny. The neck is quite thin, it looks like it would be much more comfortable to do that than on the guitar.
@@yalincokyay agree, i always play guitar like that, and my father too, and we never knew that it was a Hendrix thing

Excellent comment 😂😂😂😂
I don't get it. Please someone explain.
@@dannysoler05 it's a Russian expression. When we see someone doing something cool, we take a more famous or talented person in that field and sarcastically say that they're "standing away, nervously smoking" because they're scared of being noticed and compared
@@akiramato9697 Then why of all musicians, did they choose a vocalist who is retired?
Вот настоящий метал! Вся музыкальная индустрия держится на балалайке с дисторшоном
А где там дисторшн-то? )))) делей и ревер немного
Ну это балалайка а не восмиструнка тебе.

No time to explain, pack your bags, we're flying to Moscow
need to get those electro-balalaikas asap!
Take a biiiig bag. And bring me back one of those contrabas sized balalaikas can you. Like the lady on the left. Man that is one big musical dorito. m.ua-cam.com/video/0lN-iL3hz4g/v-deo.html

Clicked on this video out of simple curiosity, and was hit with nostalgia instead, my mother used to play this song on her balalaika at home when i was a child, granted, it was never distorted back then...
He looks similar to my grandpa and reminds me of him in a way. His way of having this electric balalaika reminds me of my grandpa's ability to just improvise anything and build random cool stuff. He had this old large barrel in his backyard and taught me how to walk on top of it like something from the circus. He made a "hillbilly golf" kit and had a backyard onion farm. Just lots of stuff like that.
Это деда из видео про электрическую баллалайку! Поверить не могу что увидел его ещё раз.

@@re4796 The frog also wants to listen to music :)
I have never seen someone below the age of 70 play this instrument.
Obviously this is because of the balalaika's minimum requirements - lvl 70 character and at least 60 wisdom.
Some people in the comments say he looks like Phil Collins, others say he looks like Uncle June from the Sopranos or Walter White... I've finally found it, the most cultured comment section in history of UA-cam
Watched a video on West Africa psychedelic rock, and Guinea is gonna love this
Can you please link the video? I am curious now!
typa video to be recommended to everyone in 10 years
Good to see Phil Collins still making music.
I'll bet that old fellow was an interesting character he sure played that tune from the heart
uncle june when they cured his demention
ahahahah
The fuck? Why am I on there?
That's nice. Then what? He fuckin dies.. I can't even keep his balalaika.
Good to see that Phil Collins is doing fine on retirement
This is one of the cutest things i've seen in my life. Reminds me of the Amelie movie where she showed the glassman random clips about loving life.
Protect this man at all costs. He's going into the apocalypse bunker
Доброе лицо Варга Викернеса, играющего true Russian black metal.😁
ААА порвал!!!
Тоже хотел написать,про русский народный блэк.
real turbo folk
Yes!!! That's exactly what it is!!!!
Brilliant!
Cheers from Michigan!
See ya guys in like 10 years when this get recommended to people (I love this video)
Nice to see Phil Collins having fun after his retirement.!!!
as soon as i heard the melody on 0:25, i just KNEW that was tetris.
this is what youtube was made for
Yet, another thing Phil's good at. However I don't think I've heard this one on any of the Solo albums. This must be a Genesis vault experience. Just kidding!😄👍🏾
All the Eddie Van Halen fans been real quiet since this dropped...
_The algorithm works in mysterious ways…_
I felt the sudden need to do the prisiadki whilst listening to this.
Suffice to say, I did.
Looks like the guy is having a great time playing that, and he should, that was great!
that old guy is a legend
Balalaika is a hell of an instrument! =]
It's a heaven of an instrument!
"Let me hear your balalaikas ringing out"
Finally someone culturized
Just perfect
Yep, he was cool))
While My Balalaika Gently Weeps
I love seeing this instrument being played.
Someone needs to make a goth album where they replace one of the guitars with Balalaika, this would lend itself so well to that genre
Something tells me that would be really good for playing really dissonant noise rock/post-hardcore and extreme metal. You know, stuff along the lines of Voivod or even Deathspell Omega.
I think you are right!
Not the exact same, but Show Me the Body is a noise-ish hardcore band that uses a distorted banjo in place of a guitar that kinda has a similar sound to this.
@@pandadoughnut3622interesting. I suppose I’ll have to look into them at some point.
id buy that shit anytime. imagine adding this to black metal mix
its tetris music
Деда , ЖГИ!!!! 🤗👍👍👍эххх, говори Москва, разговаривай Россия🎶🎶🎶🎶
man i love how he was happy while playing it,I hope he is alive right now,and also see ya guys in 10 years when this gets reccomended
Tetris theme!
можно и так сказать
Коробушка звучала ещё задолго до тетриса, так что- это тетрис тема коробушки
@@littlerookie5696 может, коробейники?
"Коробейники"- название поэмы Некрасова,а "Коробушка"- фрагмент народной песни в этой поэме, но названия равнозначны
I was here four weeks after this video was released
That was awesome and beautiful. Well played!
I kinda want this instrument after watching this video
Дед зажигает, молодец
this grandpa plays perfectly ❤️🩹
а дедуля то легенда
he looks so cool i hope this guy is still alive and well
Будем ждать когда его пригласят в слипкнот
That's amazing 😁😁 I have a balalaika that I brought back from Russia a long time ago and I never thought about that...
I guess the next step for that talented balalaika player in the video will be to install a tremolo in it, plug it into a Marshall stack ( A Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier will do too ) add some wah-wah and a Rotovibe and give Zakk Wylde a run for his money 🙂🙂
great idea!
Who is still listening to this in 2034?
You see a Soviet song played, you're filled with determination.
Oooohhh you got the tetris. You're the best!
я балалаечница и так приятно видеть свой инструмент в рекомендациях😮
God bless his hands and talent. that sounded like ost from a game tbh❤️❤️❤️
leaving this comment here since this videos will probably have 50 million views out of nowhere in 10 years.

I thought that would be Molchat Doma. Wait never mind they're Belarusian.
That instrument owes him money.

this sounds like he learned Tetris by ear which if that's the case that's incredible
now do in the air tonight
What he's playing heavily reminds me of the guitar in GTA Liberty City Stories' theme song.
Awesome
Plot twist: the distortion was purely incidental due the use of an early Soviet amplifier.
I don't think it was intended distortion though - i think he just wanted his balalaika to sound louder
I can’t get a F*cking line piece
cya in 12 yrs when this gets randomly recommended 2 every1!!! 😭
