I'm so happy this was re-uploaded the original is still on Mac Demarco's Favorites

[@JaredSaroyanKruger]

Went to one of Connan's shows the beginning of this month in LA and Demarco was there. Always fun to see that shit.

[@snoopdoggdankkush9285]

@@JaredSaroyanKruger Yeah!! I saw Mac back in 2016 or 17 at the Greek Theater. Jack Black, Robbie Blumpkin, and Conan Mockasin were there. Mac n Conan kissed for some reason weird lol. One of the best show I've ever been to, hope I get to see Conan perform some day (:

[@ProfFibi]

It sounds so good raw and simple, just his voice and the guitar.

[@Usualeclectic]

Whenever someone ask what music I like say this... and they go who’s that and then....life changing moment -can’t wait to see his tour! Jazzbusters!!!

[@valleyofthedolls]

caramel is the most beautiful song in the whole world.

[@lowe-quay-shush]

I feel so lucky to have discovered his music. Selfish with worry he'll become bigger. Want him to remain special to the 'in the knows'.

[@KDF54321]

Yet another win for KZbin Algorithm aka God.

[@tooomasz]

[@coreykuebler118]

consolidating (some) questions below from the comments, favorite of which is "what hotel is this?" How would he record his drums ? Anyone know what guitar he's playing? Anyone know what guitar effects he uses? Anyone know the type of amp he’s using? what mic is that? whats the tape machine His guitar its a strato right? does anybody else get vibes of michael jackson at certain points in his singing? what hotel is this? Anyone know where we can see his short film ?

[@lucasz.1682]

mic looks like akg c414. you can check his guitar effects in equipboard.com (seems like the chorus is a boss ce-3). tape machine is akai mg614, but not really sure tbh. and yes! michael jackson vibes for sure :p

[@lucasz.1682]

99% sure guitar amp is WEM dominator MK II

[@sirhenners204]

the guitar is a mid to late 50s Fender Stratocaster that’s been so heavily played and cut into a weird shape.

[@jameswilliamjones]

Hey Connan, Im trying to sleep next door. Can you keep it down!

​@@andrewmarcellis2007 They deserve more attention!

[@snoopdoggdankkush9285]

Does anyone know why Noisey deleted this?

[@aeoteroa818]

he plays guitar like a slinky moves also i think he sounds way better live

[@poijmc606]

I thought the video is noisy so I turned the volume down...

[@RyanSommer]

Yeah the thing is. If you can sing like that and afford C414s you can record anywhere

[@gooman04]

anyone know what tape recorder he’s using? and the amp too it’s all so simple yet pretty

[@nicolasbesson13]

Akai mg614 and Roland JC-120 Jazz Chorus i think

[@wbm3085]

A short film, what?! - could have done with finding out more about the recording process 😕

[@melodypebbles]

🖤

[@orlandobonner1034]

What underwear does he wear??

[@vidheaven]

yes

[@stag3068]

does anybody else get vibes of michael jackson at certain points in his singing?

[@badmanglibert]

Stag I get a beegees vibe

[@ZebraStandards]

Does anyone know if he recorded the drums in that room lmao?

[@figmentariumanimation7598]

Wondering the same lol

[@whitehair8824]

whats the tape machine

[@utkuarseven5318]

akai mg614 one of the best 4 track cassette recorders ever made

[@daanboon4118]

How would he record his drums ?

[@lukostelloe1]

he said in an interview "I just had a little bit of equipment, and I had to be quiet in the hotel without annoying people too much. I mostly recorded on my own but had my drummer come for a little bit and had some Japanese people coming and hanging out. It was just really simple and funny, lots of fun. Then you go outside and it’s Tokyo."

[@lukostelloe1]

A lot of it is DI’d. I had a bass guitar and electric guitar, then just made the drums quiet with a duvet. It’s lucky everyone’s really polite in Japan and even if they were upset with the noise, they probably wouldn’t have said!

[@6FloorAmouras]

does connan record using tape or does he use DAWs

[@DurinThe_Deathless]

Rough drafts always get pushed through a DAW eventually. It's how much is added in post that pulls it further and further away from a true live* performance.

[@em-yf7ng]

His guitar its a strato right?

[@untartelette7545]

si

[@moa7889]

Anyone know what guitar effects he uses?

[@swankdaddy4600]

Just a lot of of chorus/flanger and reverb

[@moa7889]

Dan Leschh thanks, much appreciated👊🏽

[@thorn99thorn]

Chorus, octave, reverb, phaser

[@juniorontiveros4019]

what mic is that?

[@untartelette7545]

akg 414

[@flyingface]

he frightens me

[@lucasz.1682]

why is that?

[@Rhinoinasuit]

Very mysterious man

[@eternity_records]

Rhinoinasuit that’s what makes him so good

[@TarePandaHelp]

He could be your lover or your murder or both

[@neroreggie]

Anyone know the type of amp he’s using?

[@Andivirta]

[@ninjaskanything2487]

Anyone know what guitar he's playing?

[@Jesse8338]

NinjASK Anything Its Mexican Classic Series 50's Fender Stratocaster with sawed off horns. Looks a bit strange for sure)

[@ninjaskanything2487]

Jesse8338 Thanks man

[@sloburnjo]

1990s Mexican Strat altered to resemble a Vox Phantom.

[@jamesdream9989]

Fender should make a custom Con Con

[@DazeyChaineMusic]

music used to be art, unfortunately Nirvana changed that
