As soon as he started with that talk box I was transported into a land of funky where the trees danced and sang and the ground was made of colors. There I hung out until morning with George Clinton and Bootsie Collins. Funkadelic.
Listen to the bands magic beans or octave cat .SEE THEM LIVE WHEREVER YOU CAN. This funky music exists. You gotta ask the right wizards and take the right side quests ;) also the Floozies are amazing
I'm a Rock and Blues guitarist, and I'm not much into keyboards. . . or this style of music, but this guy's chops are so wicked I can't help but be impressed! I was just looking at various Talk Boxes and ended up here. Geez, this guy is fantastic!
It's been more than ten years since the first time I watched this video, and you are still the one who crosses my mind when I think of talkbox. And today I knew that you were a bass player through the comment on other video.
My god the real music is back. Kick it. I just can't sitt too this funky music. Goosebumps all over. We want more. Can you do a five minute jam sir. It's like God sent you down to let people dance and enjoy some great talkbox funk.
mixed opinion, i really like autotune, it was just over-used for a year or three, so people got fatigued. sort of like disco, disco can be cool, but it was everything 78 -81, people didnt want any more of it
yo Swatkins! about three years ago, my tech teacher showed me ur grooves and it like proper inspired me to play funk synth, so basically, cheers dude!!
mannn everytime bruh...your videos are soo funkin siiiiick. youre literally my HERO. your smooth old skool funky style on keys is literally what dreams are made of. the reason i still practice even when im not feelin it is cause i dream about sitting at my keyboard one day & bein able to do what u do...& hopefully sometime in this lifetime. im not giving up! lol 💖💖💖
@nujttabutta1 thanks man, I grew up in NY state but I'm on the west coast now in Portland. I bass bass, guitar, and some drums too, got a couple of groups here I'm playing with right now like Excellent Gentlemen and Tony Ozier and the Doo Doo Funk All Stars, doing talkbox on the road with Juno What?! and trying to stay busy with music. Glad you like it bro!
Brother, I'm overflowing with thanks for your kindness. My talkbox patch is something I tweaked and modified out of one of the presets. Synced oscillators, saw wave, open filter frequency with low resonance, little bit of glide. The pitch wheel is a whole step bend and the mod wheel is a light vibrato for that vocal "Roger" sound.
just letting you, my friend found this video, you are funky as all hell. excellent gentlemen are going to be played tonight on our radio show without a doubt.
Finally some funky action music! Searching UA-cam for exiting keyboard music I've found a lot of "knob twiddlers" letting the machine drone on and on as they constantly adjust their little knobs, never hitting any keys. You're creating actual MUSIC with your gear, congratulations!
Same deal as I described above. Monophonic saw patch, open filter, light portamento. I've programmed an MS2000 before and it can DEFINITELY do a great talkbox patch.
The funk is strong with this one
Best comment EVER!
Good morning America
Facts
We love it!
ssup 2009
Yo

This is one of the funkiest things I've ever heard
this shit just cured my flu. bless you sir.

I know I might be a little late, but do you need any medical attention sir?
@@Sposep xD
*Bootsy
Thanks man! I've had the pleasure to share the stage with Bernie and I've recorded on tracks with Bootsy, too. Those guys are the originators!
Swatkins where you at...put an album together with cuts like this
I just imagine Roger Troutman spinning in a circle, stopping abruptly, pointing his finger like a gun and saying..."Now that's some funky ass shit"
I don’t, because that’s the most cringe white boy imagined thing in the world.
@@elephantgrass631 oh I forgot white people can't listen to funk.
@@AN-jz3px No, only YOU can't listen to funk. White people can't dance.
2008 and this still sounds more gangsta than the shit poppin in 2019 imo lol
And 2020
2008 and this shit still sounds more gangsta than the shit poppin in 2021 imo lol
For real !

I love how he finishes so nonchalant ... As if he didn't just out-funk the entire human race!
that trick at 1:30 kills me every time sooooo funky and good
I remember this video every few months and come back to it to make me smile, thank you Swatkins.🙂
12 years later and this still slaps

Man, I could listen to this for days...
13 years later still funky freaking greatness
This is the best talkbox video
It's been more than ten years since the first time I watched this video, and you are still the one who crosses my mind when I think of talkbox. And today I knew that you were a bass player through the comment on other video.
Yup, bass was done on the Moog LP, drums sequenced in Ableton Live, guitar and Rhodes tracked live right into the program.
You funk those keys like a god
Says a Saxa-ma-fome rockin Clinton entering stage left
That was so funkin’ good!
Absolutely dripping in funk… holy moly….
You really can’t judge a book buy it’s cover!!!!! This brother here is All Good!!!!! All Love!!!!!
This is by far my favorite talkbox video hands down. So good!!
I wasn't expecting this level of funkyness holy shiiiit
Roger and Zapp baby! Yes!! This is giving me Zapp funk. Very talented
Bruh. I just discovered a gem I will truly listen to forever. Been listening to Shaun Martin do stuff like this for snarky and you funked just as hard
12 years and still love this video

Now that's how you play a Moog synth.
'Ole Stevie Wonder would be proud.
Sony Kroket

Roger, and prince too... Sticky wet funk... Funk is alive!😎😉
After watching this numerous times and watching the original, my personal opinion? I like this much much better! Cool as!
You know if Rodger from Zapp ever got sick you could fill in for him... good job
+Bob Vicars I dont think he has to worry about getting sick anymore
That's right hey did die. Gun shot I believe..That's a shame
+Simon bleed Yeah he was shot by his brother. Very sad
Simon bleed Parliament !!!!!!!Flashlight with a talk box. Flash box or talk light. Righteous owe skoo groove

My god the real music is back. Kick it. I just can't sitt too this funky music. Goosebumps all over. We want more. Can you do a five minute jam sir. It's like God sent you down to let people dance and enjoy some great talkbox funk.
Just can't stop listening your version... This is F***ING Groovy !! Lov It!
The fact that tis hit in 2008 is so epic...I can not even begin to explain...
I had no idea what UA-cam was, but I bought a talkbox and started to get good at it and wanted to share that joy with the world.
Dang thats some funk that'll get the pets in my house dancing.
PLEASEEEE PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY
Love this. Just listened to it for the hundredth time im guessing. still slaps and always will. rock on brother thanks for making awesome music!!

Been coming back to this clip for years, just started playing drums and I use this video to hype myself up for when I'll be able to shred someday :)
I can't handle this funk!!!! More please.
i did not find this video, it found me. you are a national treasure good sir
That's that well-done, but still extra rare FUNK
been checking this video periodically for 5 years and i still cant handle the funk
I want to see more about the talkbox! This was awesome, very late 80s/early 90s!
simply beautiful
Again here, 12 years later :') best moog video ever

DOPE!!!! I'm so stoked right now.
That’s fucking reason I love talk box so much
man you were born to do this, seriously
Yo!!! Now that's what I'm talking about!!! It's about time that some1 should bring back that g-funk sound 4real!
After years of watching talk box vids I finally found a master, bad ass!
I love the tone you got on Get Down Baby. It's my fav talkbox song!
Your an inspiration brother
This man is damn legit for a lot of reasons- You can now see him with Allen Stone !
Foking awesome! I love the talkbox. Wish I could get one.

Probably one of the most hidden gems on youtube
It sounds pretty good, I like it so much
The funk, funks me up so good.
cant get enough of that anaolg bass man i love it
May the funk be with you
Just woke up, I was looking for something to practice my melodica with funk style and found this so satisfying! Thanks for doing my morning better!
Amazing sound
Wow, you have some serious talent. Damn look at those fingers go! I wish I could do that :D Great job!
Talkbox is so cool!!!
Absolutely awesome!!!! Rubbin some funk on that nicely!
Same deal as I described above.
Monophonic saw patch, open filter, light portamento.
I've programmed an MS2000 before and it can DEFINITELY do a great talkbox patch.
You are da man!
Dude mad Skillz! Man got some chops!
Sounds sick man! The bassline sounds like something from a megadrive game though haha. Pure funk expression in the lead though I'm all over it...
holy shit this is awesome! linked from the rhodes forum. absolutely stunning!
The Akai board quickly became the centerpiece in my little studio setup, thanks for giving me a good deal on it!
