    NORD, please invite this guy to play more often. Can listen to him all the time and not get bored. After all, many videos on your channel with participants who try to take or surprise with speed and complex harmonies begin to tire. They, All, are very good, but once listened to, appreciated and that's it. But Rai, well, how to say... he is different, SPECIAL! Special in terms of energy, in addition to all his amazing qualities.

      Apologies for the long winded reply. He can do all of that and most probably a lot more. He is probably the most awe inspiring musician I've come across. Truly gifted (I'm not dismissing the lifetime of practice He must've put in either)
      His dexterity, independence, speed, technique is world class. Not forgetting his apparent perfect pitch and knowledge of theory and harmonisation. As a drummer I'd love to play with him. It would be a dream.
      Just check out this video. No instruments, just sat in a car. His breakdown of the harmonisation and improvisation options over it are ridiculous!

      Sorry, now i compared, Rai played better than Valera in that video, cause he can at the same time playing bass, theme and singing the song. But I think, that Valera can do the same without problems, he virtuoso and biggest russian jazz talent. But i'm agree with you, Rai super musician! )

    Proof that he is not only a good keyboardist but also a good composer.
    There are so many talented keyboardists nowadays (with the accessibility of technology and more affordable instruments) that are not only extremely talented and virtuosos, as well as excellent improvisers, but you have to enjoy the moment only, whatever flows through their brain in those seconds. Few minutes later you don't remember what they created, nor them. it is part of the flow of the music naturally.
    But there are those that not only play, they also create memorable sticky lines, like this guy. And although he is also virtuoso, he doesn't need to display a show of speed to be memorable.

      Like so many Rai Thistlethwayte tunes, he just doesn't seem to collect the audience he deserves. Back in Aus in the 2000's he was on every popular TV show or awards night performance with Thirsty Merc. He is truly a one of a kind musician, and can do it all.

    • @eugeneprystupa5075
      @eugeneprystupa5075 2 роки тому +3

      I have Stage 3, but piano samples are the same. The general idea is that he has made a split with the synth bass in the lower octaves and piano in the top octaves. Then, we was using the Release parameter to create than sample cutoff effect that Dirty Loops and many others have been known for. In solo part, it sounds like he had changed the top sample to wurlie and added quite a bit of Drive parameter to give it that dirty, overdriven sound. Hope this helps.
