This worked super well, I can see my shoes so clearly now. You guys already have the most important part of shoegaze, which is friends having a massive amount of fun together and making gorgeous melodies together instead of competing with each other about who can play the mostest notes fastest.
I'm an admittedly snobby musician but I will say that Emily is the only one who can get away with starting a new band for a genre before she even knows what the genre even is
I love shoegaze. And I love this. Many of the classic shoegaze bands liked using harp-like synth sounds in their mixes so this seems like a very natural fit.
I'm honestly surprised that you didn't know what shoegaze was, since it's kind of what you're all about: pedals and reverb! Such a natural fit for you.
I love that you can start off with what seems like a silly, yet exciting little adventure, but end up producing some lush, dope af music with equally talented musicians. I've always been a fan of shoegaze so I might be a little bias, but I would totally listen to, Does is Shoegaze #DoesItShoegaze
I dont live and breathe shoegaze but good grief did I love this. I could listen to that forever. We need a full album, like asap. P.S. love the channel, found you through Rob Scallon.
I immediately guessed who your shoegaze subject matter expert would be - top choice! Not shown: Kevin Shields being jealous he never thought to bring in some harp action.
Not too big into shoegaze, so I don't know if I'm breaking extremely old ground or what. But this video really showcased to me just how important drumming is to shoegaze. For me, it just ties everything together in a way that I can see the music ending up being either under or overwhelming pretty easily without it
HE'LL YE'AH ! This video is *AMAZING* Love this band. Joe=Killing it on drums, Ian=Shoegaze/Yo-Yo King(was not expecting those mad skillz) Emily&Russ=Solid 89%. Great job, phellas™. Now to listen to this at 3AM (EPIC)(NOT CLICKBAIT) Big Love from your Mod up North🫡🍁❤️🔥
Awesome musicality aside, you folks seem like fun people to spend time with. Thanks for showing that so well. It's the obvious fun you have while producing these vids that adds the extra little something.
Thanks for explaining shoegaze. And for the yo-yo demonstration. 60 years ago, I had quite the collection of duncan imperial yo-yos and spin tops. They were all the rage of us 2nd grade boys and responsible for not a few lumps on the head while practicing the 'around the world' move. The 'cradle' was SO much safer. When spring came around, we turned to marbles and every boy had a pocket full of them itching for recess and the chance to win more. Thanks for the fun videos, Emily.
This makes me feel like I'm reminiscing on sweet childhood memories that weren't ever mine to begin with. "Those were good times. But, uh...whose were they, anyway? I never did any of that." That kind of thing.
ooh your comment made me think of a memory of someone else’s childhood memory of being a little girl on a swing, that was a fabricated childhood memory implanted in a replicant that Harrison Ford’s character didn’t kill?
Big shoegaze and adjacent genre listener here and I would certainly listen to this project if y’all continued to make more. Alt-rock/shoegaze bands are pushing the genre further than ever right now and using way more elements and I feel like the harp fits perfectly
I’ve been watching Ian’s videos for a year or so. First time I’ve ever seen him in human form! Of course a harp can shoegaze! It’s perfect for it. Great video Emily!
That is pretty nostalgic. It reminds me of my youth, when the band I was in would play gigs in rooms way too large for the meager amplification we owned.
Shoegaze grew out of the post-punk alternative rock scene of the 1980s, and involved a lot of experimentation with effects in ways and to extents they hadn't been previously used in popular music, particularly with guitars, amps, and pedals that were less popular with the mainstream musicians of the era, because those were not in high demand and therefore affordable and available. In the 1980s, what have now come to be known as the Fender "offset" guitars-Jazzmasters, Jaguars, Mustangs, Duo-Sonics, etc-were far cheaper to buy used because they had fallen out of fashion. Similarly, the silver panel Fender Twin Reverb amps of the 1970s had fallen out of favor, and could be found for relatively low prices, at least partly because they were just too loud; they wouldn't start to distort until you turned them up to obscenely high volumes, necessitating the use of overdrive and distortion pedals. The 1980s were also the era of the first widespread availability of high quality affordable effects pedals from companies like Boss, Electro-Harmonix, and others. The term "shoegaze" itself was coined by a British music journalist, and was intended to be a derisive term for bands of the era who weren't very "rock star" like on stage, and partly due to introversion and partly due to the use of effects pedals on stage, spent a lot more time looking downward than outward toward the audience, "gazing at their shoes". The British music press has a habit of harshly reviewing up and coming trends in music. But while shoegaze can be said to have coalesced in Britain, it was never an exclusively British phenomenon. The early British shoegaze bands counted many American and global acts as influences, and a distinctly American shoegaze scene developed concurrently.
Not every shoegaze band put reverb before distortion or strummed their guitars whilst holding onto the whammy bar. Not every shoegaze band is defined by distortion or fuzz.
Shoegazing is not exactly only reverb, fuzz, chorus, distorted amp…. Showgaze is simply enough “staring at your pedals/shoes” when you perform. I used to shoegaze in my teenage years when performing (I’m 44). The name was hijacked in my opinion. I mean in the 90s, mazzy star used to be called a shoegaze band.
People forgot the dreampop element of it and tried to separate them into two different genres, as if there were not non-fuzz parts all over Loveless too. Slowdive, non-fuzz parts all over the place. The genre had both parts, a yin and yang. Everyone wants to only yin.
This was loads of fun. You guys sounded godlike! Add a solid vocalist, ideally from somewhere in the North of England, and I’d buy your record without a thought. Inspiring as ever! Cheers, Emily; you are a delight and an unique talent.
I’m loving this new song. It’s one of my favorite of your releases yet. I was really happy to see one of my Bolt yo-yos make a cameo in this video too. I’m glad you are enjoying it.
thank you, Doc Pop!!!! we love your yo-yo!!! :) thank you again for sending it to me; it's such an amazing gift that means so much to me! now we just gotta convince Ian to give me yo-yo lessons... lmao
Well that was beautiful. Totally brought me back to high school '96 which is so impressive that you could nail it so well with no previous exposure. Y'all are awesome 😎
When I saw Collector Emitter I was I bit worried about my ears. When I saw Emily picking up the Yoyo I was really worried about your gear. And afterwards I almost cracked laughing - as usual.
That music at the end was glorious! Me being halfway through my 60s, it kinda reminds me of psychedelic rock jam band music, but with a bit of a modern twist. The newer effects pedals are way better than they used to be...
Shoegazing is that you end up gazing at your shoes because you are using so many effects and need to adjust etc, all the time. "The name comes from the heavy use of effects pedals, as the performers were often looking down at their pedals during concerts" that is quote from Wikipedia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoegaze
This was so much fun to watch. I enjoyed the cool sounds and good laughs. You're going to be the harp queen of, like, all the traditionally non-harp genres soon, if you keep it up.
Near crippling stage fright not included. I always felt that was at the root of the whole head down while on stage thing. They're looking at their guitars but add some long messy hair in the mix and you can't tell what they're looking at. It catches on, more people do it, so some journalist just eventually decided to call it shoe gazing, and a subgenre is born.
OH my gods. The yo-yoing from the live stream 3 weeks back makes totall sence now >< I could not stop laughing! Dude is killer! AND the band sounds amazing!
... Last night I was showing our bassist's kid how to yoyo, so I was looking up what yoyos are popular these days. Then I got overwhelmed by all the new yoyo culture. I thought, that's enough yoyo, I'm gonna watch this harp video.
I barely started the video, but as someone who loves shoegaze I recommend a very underground and underrated band called Lovesilkpalemilk (morgonstund is my favorite track) and Thränenkind (which is not that underground), that's it, I love your videos! Ok, I'm back to say I loved the track you guys played in the end, that's lovely!
i love when shoegaze incorporates instruments that aren’t usually used in that kind of music. Everybody should check out Wednesday, they’re an amazing band that blends shoegaze with country and uses a pedal steel.
That was glorious. The depth of awareness needed to spot harmonic and melodious happenings within a surrounding haze which also interplays with hidden happenings is increased when listening to this work. 😸
love that y'all just happened to have a yo-yo on hand lmfao 💀💀 that said, I would legitimately love to hear more of this, despite not knowing the genre well at all you nailed it, I'm a big fan of shoegaze and this was perfect. I'd actually pay for a full album, dead serious on that
Emily, Russ, and Ian, Never heard of 'shoegaze' before this. And after Ian's explanation I thought, "OK, I guess I'm too old__I'm just not into all the fuzzy distortion stuff. That's why I was never into the 'acid rock' as a teenager." HOWEVER, once you started playing as a band, gotta say, it was kind of nice__interesting, for sure! Sometimes I'm totally lost on all the pedal and game stuff you guys are all into but, I always learn something here__and, for sure, I enjoy the music! Thanks for being 'you'. 🎶💎 Hope we have the opportunity to meet up on your visit to "SoCal". 😱😛😹 Love, Light, and Harpy Blessings. 🙏😇✨💫🌱🌿🌻🐝🌳🌎💖🙌😺
That was a great video. I'm a fan of shoegaze now, especially of "Does It Shoegaze" (it does!). Awesome new song and awesome performances. I'm left with a growing interest in the genre and awful G.A.S. for ALL of those pedals! 👍
Thanks so much for having me y’all! We make the best shoegaze partners on UA-cam
HE'LL YE'AH😎🤘
Dude, teach us how to yo-yo
you're the best :)
Sick! Was that the doc pop bolt, green responsive edition yoyo?
drink//milk 🥛🪀🤟
Ian: explains shoegaze
Emily: “What? That’s it? Okay let’s yo-yo”
😂
@@emilyharpist she's a master of another kind of strings
@@carpediemarts705 i wonder what it would sound like if you had a really heavy yoyo with a pickup on it so the string would actually resonate
I love the part where she says "it's shoegazin time" and then shoegazes all over everything
4:31 "I'm gonna shoegaze now"
A definitive statement that made me audibly laugh
Gave me Forrest Gump vibes. "I'm gonna go home now."
@@RustyGonzo😂😂😂
I was not expecting that amount of yoyo action, can't ever predict what's going to happen in Emily's videos 😂
Now we know if a yo-yo can shoegaze
👟 ✨🪀✨
She is the beauty in chaos
Ians got MAD YO YO SKILLS!
I’ll have you know I came in 7th place in the Pennsylvania regional yo-yo competition when I was 13
This should unironically be a real band
Strongly agree.
Honestly this is gonna be great work music for me
Yes. Need a Bandcamp album!
It's soo pretty. Wow. MORE!
This worked super well, I can see my shoes so clearly now. You guys already have the most important part of shoegaze, which is friends having a massive amount of fun together and making gorgeous melodies together instead of competing with each other about who can play the mostest notes fastest.

You get a like for admitting
Yep 😎
Honestly I barely know what I'm doing when I make music that I actually like. The moment I think I know what I am doing it always turns into meh.
@@theothertonydutch me too
Emily is herself her”own genre
That yo-yo section was total chaos and I’m here for it
*YO-YO CHAOS INTENSIFIES*
Emily’s trick called drink the milk was hilarious 😂
I was very sceptic at first but that song you put together gave me shivers. It's like my soul gets cheese grated by a lightning struck kitten's tongue
Thanks so much! I was a skeptic at first too! 😂
I always think of ‘gaze as being like having the top of your head lovingly blowtorched.
There’s a big overlap with Post Rock imo.
You win The Interwebs for that absolutely over the top analogy.
@@Si_G nice ive always described it as a beautiful, slo- mo car crash... awesome job everyone!
Me: Well, you kinda have to gaze at your shoes to shoegaze.
Emily *leans back and does hand binoculars to look at her boots*
Lmfaooo am I doing it right?!
Actually, it could be a good cover for an album 🤪
This channel is both great pedal reviews / discussion, as well as just wholesome goofiness of friends with similar interests. Great shit Em and Russ!
Thanks so much! We had so much fun with Ian in this video!
I’ve loved watching this channel get less and less serious over time-moving along a spectrum from “seriously creative” to “hilariously creative.”
I'm a shoegaze fan, and I love this video - Does It Shoegaze is my new favourite band!
Same 🙌
You gotta pronounce shoegaze like "fugazi". Only then will you become a true shoegaze artist.
I’ll meet you halfway - shugazi
I pronounce it شقوز
If you think about it, Fugazi is a shoegaze band with no pedals 🤔
@@noyd4172 Fugazi is so far away from shoegaze it's insane hahah
@@emilyharpist I think that's exactly how they meant for you to pronounce it lol. No middle ground there
I love this video format, Emily. The guests are awesome, and applying what you've learned onto harp and releasing a song is SO. COOL.
I love shoegaze. And I love this.
Many of the classic shoegaze bands liked using harp-like synth sounds in their mixes so this seems like a very natural fit.
From an old shoegaze fan to a new one, this is excellent. I'll listen to the $hit out of this if you do more.
The problem I have with shoe gaze is the distortion. I guess without it it would just be ambient music?
@@smelltheglove2038 yeah the distortion and reverb are what make it shoegaze
I'm honestly surprised that you didn't know what shoegaze was, since it's kind of what you're all about: pedals and reverb! Such a natural fit for you.
I learn about so many different music genres here. I've never heard of HarshNoise or Shoegaze before. This channel really makes me want to try music.
Hey Emily Hopkins and Russ and Ian! That was well beyond shoegaze so it must be footwarestare! Ride ride ride!
Ride ride ride!
I love that you can start off with what seems like a silly, yet exciting little adventure, but end up producing some lush, dope af music with equally talented musicians. I've always been a fan of shoegaze so I might be a little bias, but I would totally listen to, Does is Shoegaze #DoesItShoegaze

Thanks so much Patrick! I’m not an expert shoegazer either! Haha glad you found me from Rob!
I might have known Ian was involved!
It's nice that things have gone full-circle from when I first heard of you from a Collector Emitter video.
It was so nice to finally do something IRL together! Ian is the BEST!
@@emilyharpist I really enjoyed the passages with the cleanish harp and Ian's shoegaze guitar in the background.
Musical styles with unconventional instruments is my favorite. It just is, can't explain it. Harp in shoegaze sounds great.
A Delta Blues harp would be interesting. No idea how you'd even do that.
Does It Shoegaze is a really good! Definitely would fit in the Post-Rock genre quite well! We need more Does It Shoegaze!
Final piece definitely shoegazes.
I immediately guessed who your shoegaze subject matter expert would be - top choice! Not shown: Kevin Shields being jealous he never thought to bring in some harp action.
lol same i was like 'bet its Ian, the collector emitter guy' to my girlfriend and she was like 'what?'
live footage of Kevin Shields strapping on all his guitars at once to simulate all the strings of a harp
Ian is the best. I play his demos just to listen to. Always the most beautiful jams.

This was a lot of fun! The yoyo bit at the beginning was damn perfect, and the rest was really interesting. Fun all the way through.
And it has a melancholy vibe where you are chillin' just gazing at your shoes.
Beautiful! I'm reminded of Hainbach's technique of distorting the signal as it enters the reverb.
That Screen Violence pedal SOUNDS BEAUTIFUL!!!
