AKAI force meets 100 year old Ekströms piano (BURG - Redux)

[@MrMarcLaflamme]

I'm blown away that a 100 year old piano has an Avalon Bassline stand! :-P Beautiful BURG!

[@BURG]

Haha, yeah they were way ahead of time! :D thanks a lot, cheers!

[@loopop]

Wait, wait, this is what it sounds like when you're NOT inspired?? An album of non-inspiration please

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot!! Yeah, the not inspired part is more about stealing some old melodies from myself and just reusing them in a new structure.. its like a cover, nothing new. Maybe that is an album idea right there.... :D

[@BURG]

@Snake Plissken haha, you are the nicest guy out there 🎹😎🎹

[@BURG]

@Snake Plissken I have not fully integrated the force / updated version / into my workflow yet, first off i am more interested in the external ins via USB class compliant sound cards with lots of i/o :D So not sure on how to best set it up, sorry. Im not even sure fully what i want for myself, but the force will take me there soon, hehe

[@Okemor]

I am listening to this piece again. The little inconsistencies and problems which you mention are great because they give a result of authenticity. It is good that your composition is not stitched from separate lines but is created as a whole. These imperfections make it better. I know, a paradox but a nice paradox. Thank you again for this beautiful piece, it gave me great comfort and joy today.

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot for the added kind words, it means a lot!! cheers and peace !

[@designhappens8157]

I am listening to this track and I imagine the technicians who made this piano somewhere in heaven, listening to their creation and recognizing the sound. They are searching around to see where this melody is coming from. They open a door and voila... They see what we see in the video. "Oh my god!" the one whispers with awe. "Is it him?" the other one asks. "Yeah, man...The boss himself ...don't you see? He is playing our piano... "And what is all the other stuff around?...what is this "force" machine next to him? "I don't know man... Heavenly stuff!..."

[@BURG]

Haha, that was a great story! 🎹😎🎹 Big thanks!

[@InvertedPopesMusic]

I echo loopop this is amazing for someone with writers block wish my writers block was so productive. Excellent work my friend very much enjoyed this the piano has a wonderful tone to it and yes, more please.

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot mate, much appreciated! :) yeah, its really about not finding the "right" thing.. but maybe i should stop looking and just record whatever that comes to my mind :D cheers and thanks!!

[@spacedrifter1961]

The Burg is back! Absolutely fantastic 💫🙏✨.

[@BURG]

Cheers and thanks!! :D

[@GrannyGreymatter]

beautiful and a lot more organic than usual, still with the Burg vibe. Really nice

[@BURG]

Big thanks for the kind words!!

[@stephensmitherman5243]

Beautiful fusion of old and new. I also liked the Vangelis string stroke at the end.

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot!

[@pe0sat]

I really like this new experimental path !

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot, i am glad you like it!! :) cheers !

[@logikslave]

Dude!!! Whaaaaat. Your breathing makes the track. Forget the 100 year old piano :) the resonant harmonics in your breath is the melody…I can’t believe no one caught that sonic goodness!!! Great stuff as usual man! Aloha from Hawaii!

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot and Aloha!! :D

[@Okemor]

Simply beautiful :) Thank you for this bit.

[@BURG]

Thank a lot for listening ! cheers

[@thekitchensynth]

This is great Ollie... Lovely to have the piano cut through into the Burg vibe. Mmm... V nice 👍

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot Kevin, really appreciated!

[@mizzoe2809]

Beautiful

[@BURG]

Big thanks!

[@InkyDaCaT]

Ohhhh my......well if writers block produced this, I thank it. The mic picking up the room gives it extra life.....just beautiful mate... dripping with soul...yum!

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot Inky, it means a lot coming from you!!

[@InkyDaCaT]

@@BURG agree with Loopop couldn't this be an album?

[@BURG]

@@InkyDaCaT I will give it some serious thought ✨🎹

[@InkyDaCaT]

@@BURG mm suggest less thought more flow after all why not....imho...whats not to lose? The amenence of this shines through (bit like some guy n volcas n kp3??) Less is more have the magic here..imho😉

[@Nilesong1]

Writers block my arse! Great piece. Thank you.

[@expensivenotes]

Lovely relaxing vibe. Beautiful flow and a joy to listen to.

[@BURG]

Big thanks!

[@igorwaldl1690]

The piano fits so well the sequenced stuff. Great!

[@BURG]

Thanks !

[@antoniodimauro2053]

Ciao, bentornato👍👏🎶

[@BURG]

Thank you!

[@mack_solo]

I'm listening to this for the 4th time straight. You've injected a fine sonic atmosphere into my room. Personally, I take all of the above microphone excuses as attributes in this composition - it sounds great and it gives this piece a unique character. Hope to hear more acoustic explorations (not necessarily in piano) from you in the future - maybe that could be your next album theme? I shall name this tune: Red Force Extroms ;)

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot!! :) yeah acoustic explorations are really adding something special to the mix, so i need to explore this more in the future. Just getting a good space setup in the new studiospace to make this happen. Cheers! :)

[@janne-seta]

Minimal and effective, really enjoyed that! 👍

[@BURG]

Great to hear! thanks a lot! :) cheers

[@dr.feelicks2051]

A fun swim.for sure. Medicine for mind. ✌️ Thanks🙏🏻👊🏻

Thanks a lot! :D

[@stevenmartin1607]

Absolutely fantastic! Thank you for sharing.

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot!! cheers

[@nickpritchard7130]

Well, Well Mr Burg.This is truly incredible stuff. One of your best vids !! . Wonderful use of the strings at the end of the piece.. Haven't seen that before. it would appear that you have ascended to another level with your music craft..Huge Well Done from West Oz ! ... Now i am going to play it again !

[@BURG]

Big thanks for the very kind words, it means a lot to me!! cheers and thanks!

[@nickpritchard7130]

@@BURG No worries Mr Burg. You deserve all the success your musical talent brings.! Well done !

[@metaspherz]

Nice effect with the strings at the end. You can't strum like that with a Grand Piano! Awesome tune! It didn't sound much like you've got a writer's block problem. You can't always be expected to be at the top of your game all the time. New experiences, new inspiration. It's the cycle of (musical) life...

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot 🎹😎🎹

[@dreamstaticsounds]

Very cool! Also, glad to see you got the Force. It's my brain of choice and a hell of a great sampling device.

[@TheInterGalacticFederation]

very nice - the atmospherics from the room mic are great!

[@SultanBerkaliev]

thanks for the work done, it's amazing

[@BURG]

Big thanks!! :) cheers

[@skullhqx]

Thanks for this. I really love these ‘simpler’ tracks you create. You’re a big inspiration showing that less is more!

[@Cybercygni]

Grymt bra och helt perfekt operfekt. Det är så det ska låta live. 👍

[@BURG]

Stort tack! :)

[@candyflip6345]

This is a great performance! The Force is such a powerful performance tool.

[@BURG]

Big thanks! And yes, the force is just getting better for every update 🎹😎🎹

[@SleeveZipper]

This is one of the best you made

[@BURG]

Big thanks for the kind words! 🎹🙌🎹

[@SleeveZipper]

@@BURG You actually inspired me with this video. Last week I picked up a Kriebel piano (TK-88) from the late 1930's and I am going to rig it with a mic and effects too. Not nearly as good a player as you are but it sure will be possible to create some awesome sounscapes and ambient with it I am sure

[@BURG]

@@SleeveZipper that is great to hear! Good luck with your jamming 🎹✨🎹

[@SleeveZipper]

Got this going and shimmer on an old piano is pretty amazing

[@BURG]

That is so great to hear !! Good luck with the music making 🎹🙌

[@bartoszgawe6297]

nice one, Jouni :+1:

[@BURG]

Thanks a lot Bart!

[@JoeDread316]

Have you ever been approached by video game developers or film makers? Your music would make an excellent soundtrack.

[@experimentalbear]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@JuhaniEkstrand]

asbra!

[@BURG]

Stort tack!!

[@SOZERCATELI]

Super atmospheric!!! And at 5:58 the sound is very similar to the ambient from the game Thief: Dark Project Example: 18:17 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqO6l5Vtj9mGhsU
