Gettin' funky with Roger to a beat I made. I hope you enjoy :) Equipment: Yamaha DX100, Rocktron Banshee This video recently appeared on MTV: www.mtv.com/ove...
Race has nothing to it. Stop with that collective bullshit. Being black doesn't mean you enjoy that kind of music and being white doesn't mean you can't like it.
@@KingxDavid23 The term white isn't here for no reason. There is a thing amongst some black people that they think they are superior to whites because they think whites cannot appreciate music such as Funk, Jazz, Soul, R&B, Disco or Hip Hop or cannot dance like blacks which is complete bullshit. I am the best example of it and there are much more people that are proving them wrong but yet they still claim their status quo.
This is one of my favourite videoes on youtube ever! i´ts problaby a year since i last saw it, and it is by far the best talkbox video on youtube! this vid made me buy a Rocktron Banshee talk box and a MikroKorg a couple of years ago. LOVE IT
That clip tells me how much Roger Troutman has influence people. When i closed my eyes and listen, I thought it was a RT remix. I like the video. Funky indeed.
I have seriously watched this video about 50 times!! I love it soo much~! I boought a rocktron banshee and have a Novation Xiosynth arriving tomorrow as I am soo inspired by your clip! Keep it up!!
i have a banshee for about 3 years now and i luv it! it sounds the same as any other talk box i think...its not about the talk box its about the sound coming from it!
That was awesome. Will you do more? You're the first one I found that actually focuses on the talkbox in his "song" rather than focusing on the music and adding some talkbox for content. I'd love to hear another medley from you.
This Guy is the real best talkboxer on you tube so far , is the real master of tbx around the web, there must be some others that haven`t record a video , but by now this guy has not been surpassed. resPECTTTTTTTTT!!!!
DUDE! I really wish I never saw your videos because now I want to get myself a talkbox. hahaha You are freaking awesome, man. Good to see a few people left reppin' the REAL good music. Keep on keepin' on man. You've got a new fan in me! :D
Cool, good job. I'm sure Roger would be happy to see that. BTW, I remember when the first talkbox came out and I believe this is true, the guy from Rufus (Chaka Khan's old group) invented it.
My bad, I was replying to someone who asked if there was a difference between guitar talkboxes and synth talkboxes (hence the "it's the same [...]) I personnaly own a talkbox and use it solely with my synth. In my opinion it sounds much better with a synth than with a guitar! So nothing wrong with it. Quite the opposite. And by freak I meant someone super freakaaayyy.
I've probably watched this video a kajillion times since I found it last month. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have picked up my awesome Banshee. Thanks a lot, Mayhem.
Omg, that's freaking awesome. I watched his rendition of 'Digital Love', and that was sexy!! Love this one too, still like other one more. xD Keep it up man. You rock!
Read the Video Info next time. "Equipment: Yamaha DX100, Rocktron Banshee" The Yamaha DX100 being the keyboard, and the Rocktron Banshee being the TalkBox.
The thing I love about this guy is if I saw him walking down the street he's the last guy I'd pick to be getting fun-kay in his bedroom studio with a talkbox tube in his mouth, yet, there he is. Awesome.
Man....I really like what you're doing. I've been a big Roger Troutman fan for the past 10 years, but have only recently decided to go for it and really do the talkbox thing. I've tried several vocoders over the years, but nothing has 'that sound'. I have a serious question for you (but I'll ask you privately.) You're awesome dude!
that was fantastic dude, I started collecting viynl records not long ago and I'm soon to be the owner of my first ever Zapp and Roj record to add to my collection
Oooo Weeee Mayhem..... man you rox the box. Many kudos coming from a BSEE degree'd white boy who used to dj at house sets durring the 80's (Chicago's WBMX Hot Mix days).
nice remix! makes me just want my talkbox to come. love roger t! for a long time. glad people know who he is, thought i was the only one. i was wrong lol. keep talkboxing and ill soon be on the list
Agreed. If you don't mind me expounding a bit on how the talk box works... The tube sends the noises he makes with his instrument into his mouth, where he shapes his throat and mouth to form "voices" with the noise. Essentially, he's letting the instrument become his voice. The audio picked up by the camera is coming from his mouth, just like when he spoke.

This is one funky white boy!

That was really impressive, and Im a die hard Roger and Zapp fan. Excellent job man, looking foward to more vids!!!
2024 here 💪
I wish that Roger Troutmann could hear you man , thumbs up for this here !! :)
This video has earned the 5 stars and my subscription. You definitely do Zapp and Roger justice.
You are a true talent on the talkbox. California love was the hot hot heat!
If i had one of those things and knew how to use it, i would never get out of the house! 😂 Looks like too much fun.
i know for real
me too
Hey, to the other members of Zapp out there, take this dude on tour with you.
Bring back the funk.
Awesome!
Wishing in 2024 that UA-cam was still as new and exciting as in 2006!... 😎
Go!!! He got talent!!!
He mixed all of Zapp and Roger songs!!! Great Performance!!!

Freaking awesome, man, you gotta love talk boxes.
I think he's doing really well NOT very many people can reproduce that Roger Troutman RIP sound
Pretty damed good! Keep the funk alive! Don't matter what color!!!
That clip tells me how much Roger Troutman has influence people. When i closed my eyes and listen, I thought it was a RT remix. I like the video. Funky indeed.
That is some sweet action!!!
Inspiring stuff --- I know that Roger is smiling on the other side.
That was hella tight!!! Keep it up!
Dude, this is amazing!
I dunno why anyone should ever say anything else with a talk box than More bounce to the ounce!
Lovin it.
I have seriously watched this video about 50 times!! I love it soo much~! I boought a rocktron banshee and have a Novation Xiosynth arriving tomorrow as I am soo inspired by your clip! Keep it up!!
Awesome and hilarious at the same time! It just keeps getting better throughout the video. Keep it going!
i have a banshee for about 3 years now and i luv it! it sounds the same as any other talk box i think...its not about the talk box its about the sound coming from it!
As a black man .. that love's zapp and roger .. i could listen to you over and over :) fucking great job bro
OMG... YOU'RE GREAT!!! I want to learn to play like this
That was awesome. Will you do more?

You go boy!!!!! More bounce to the ounce baby!! Awesome job!!! Keep it up, I'll watch more if you make em!! Shake it MAMA!
dude, I can't get enough. you have mad skills, roger would be proud, keep up the awesome work!
I looked for this for years after seeing it in my teenage years
i think ive watched this vid about 20 times in the last two days, cant get enough.
I'm diggin' this funky beat. It's official: I'm making me a Talk Box.
DUDE! I really wish I never saw your videos because now I want to get myself a talkbox. hahaha You are freaking awesome, man. Good to see a few people left reppin' the REAL good music. Keep on keepin' on man. You've got a new fan in me! :D
Cool, good job. I'm sure Roger would be happy to see that.

His name is tony maiden

Great job on these videos man. Very informative and helpful. Keep doin' your thing.
Damn son!! U got that thing tight!!! Keep doin your thang!!!
The guy that showed up to the office every day... and nobody ever knew.
rip roger it brings back good memory....good work dude...
Simply astounding! How a straight-laced white fellow can instantly morph into a demon of funk is, well, beyond me.
You definitly got great skills man. I'm tryin' to make my own Talk Box for my guitar :)
it just keeps getting better and better
I haven't signed onto my account in hella long, but I did so like a minute ago just to comment on how awesome this is.
DAS A GOOD ONE!
Dude, sick, absoulutely sick. Best I've seen on here, especially on the keyboard. Nice bro. Post more....
My man, u got soul. Very well done, keep it up cuz not many people are keeping the real funk alive. Truth.
I've probably watched this video a kajillion times since I found it last month. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have picked up my awesome Banshee. Thanks a lot, Mayhem.
Fresh...Cool and Funky.
Omg, that's freaking awesome. I watched his rendition of 'Digital Love', and that was sexy!! Love this one too, still like other one more. xD
Keep it up man. You rock!

The Yamaha DX100 being the keyboard, and the Rocktron Banshee being the TalkBox.
Yup, you've got to play the right notes. The synth's fed into the mouth and the formants are added by the mouth. :)
Very very nice ! Thanks for do it like Roger & Zapp !
The thing I love about this guy is if I saw him walking down the street he's the last guy I'd pick to be getting fun-kay in his bedroom studio with a talkbox tube in his mouth, yet, there he is. Awesome.
Under rated talk box
Great talkboxing! Can't wait to get myself one of those Banshee's
Man....I really like what you're doing. I've been a big Roger Troutman fan for the past 10 years, but have only recently decided to go for it and really do the talkbox thing.
