Devil Went Down to Jupiter - synth solo

[@HaterTaterLater]

was NOT prepared for the epicness. I seriously needed to restart due to the fact I was like 'wha--omfg this is awesome'. Not much music makes me do this.

[@Daftlife909]

I love this vid just as much as the first time I watched it. I just love the Authenticity of just performing and see how it just comes up

[@SynthesizersForPeace]

Man this is so flippin rad! Great idea for a cover?! Excellent job, keep it up! Love your videos!!

[@LikaLaruku]

Best version of this song I've ever heard.

[@hamsterdunce]

I love the JD-800 and it'll always be my #1 synth, but someday when I am worth squillions of dollars I will own an Elka Synthex, Yamaha CS-80, white Moog Voyager, Prophet-5, and a personal ball-washer.

[@RenatoMarinoHenz]

OMFG!!!!! That was insane!!!!! Congratulations!!!! Keep the good job!!

[@fystasjoppheng]

You a great synth performer Hamsterdunce!

[@arcano022]

Great solos!! Usually I didn't like so much of long solos, that go form nowhere to nowhere... but you are awsome! You did a great job here! You did perfect balance of the technique with the felling!! Tks for sharing!! Gabriel

[@jcnork]

I remember when you used to drag your keyboard to school just so the Mercy girls would talk to you :) All these years later.... still tryin ;-)

[@mrpyro07]

That was so awesome!!! keep up the good work!

[@F1r3Foxxxy]

Wow amazing! Didn't know this was possible :O Love all the effects you added!

[@kenny888stsk]

that was posably one of the most amazing key related things iv ever seen...

[@hamsterdunce]

Little Phatty Tribute Editions go for around $1400 used (Stage Editions $1200 used, $1400 new), Roland JD-800 you can find used for around $500-$800, and Microkorgs are about $300 used, $400 new.

[@DraktonTube]

okay holy shit.. good job man, you are one amazing boardist.

[@GNeuman]

Excellent, awesome talent, dude!! Five Stars!!

[@kc9hyr2]

holy shit that was the coolest. that is all i have to say

[@JohnLRice]

Kick ass skillz and musicallity! nice job!

[@texanmann]

haha....that was freakin sick man...great job!

[@brandonsmokler5561]

Dude you were rippin! Chris Squire would be proud!

[@hamsterdunce]

Hey, when I started playing "Dreams" by Van Halen, they flocked the stage for those first few seconds or so. It was all downhill from there of course. And... and SCREW YOU for bringing up personal details of my past! Holy crap, that was 20 years ago, too. Dang......

[@hamsterdunce]

It's been an ongoing hobby of mine since 1974 (on my parents' organ). I was only 4 years old... I don't remember a time before playing music on organs & synths. So to answer your question, about 34 years! ;-)

[@Silverspecks]

It's not the best synth remix I've ever heard, but for some reason I am compelled to keep coming back and listen. It's been stuck in my mind.

[@jonfiredaman02]

AMAZING! It must have taken you forever to learn this. And you have a little phatty! I'm so jealous. Although everything you play in this video actually sounds equally awesome.

[@GoGoGadgetBeer]

5 stars...and well deserved! Great

[@zakkydude654]

can u please tell what notes you used in that sequence from 2:05 to 2:09 its sounds beautiful

[@anathemaunveiled]

You are bloody amazing.

[@erythros]

Get some faith in yourself, man. This is absolutely amazing.

[@donniejohnston5470]

you have a gift man

[@lazerus42]

your insane!!!! well done

[@DiceDynamite]

fkin wicked & awesome shit man! keep up the awesome stuff!

[@Metaknight180]

That was awesome!

[@MicahTheBeast]

That is crazy awesome!

[@AgentSapphire]

amazing work Dave. You're knowledge of your keyboards is excellent and your playing skills are top of the line. This seriously impressed me... Ah fuck the technical analysis. DAVE YOU KICK ASS!!!

[@Dr0coles]

Still a banger 2023

[@goat200]

Dude Your a legend!

[@TheTastenTier]

holy cow, you are great!

[@hobodan17]

There's also nothing involved in the music that sounds remotely 'out of place'; that is, everything serves a purpose relative to the key/form. Anything else that isn't necessary to the form of the song aids the style. Personally, I think it's impressive that the song was pulled together so well. Nice work, hamsterdunce!

[@breakingnewznow]

I love it!

[@graal7]

certainly the best !!!!big solo

[@hamsterdunce]

Never having had piano lessons I don't really know what the scale is called, but you can find all the notes in the scale by playing alternating modes of D-major and C-minor scales. D, E-flat, G-flat, G, A, C, D is the scale.... sorry I couldn't be more helpful!

[@extremenumerouno]

VIRTUOSO !!!!! WOOOOOW

[@hamsterdunce]

It's ultimate support, custom-cut for smaller synths. Made by a buddy of mine...

[@TheGumboVariator]

Awesome !!!!

[@Shwaggetyshfifty]

that blew my mind!

[@NR92CP]

I'm glad you're not a total egomaniac, hamster, but you've got to give yourself some credit. This is kickass! Also, aren't you the guy who compared an original Minimoog to a Voyager in another Voyager, and tried to make the Voyager sound like the Minimoog? That was a pretty great video too.

[@1pxsolid]

man wtf... that's amazing.

[@RRKS69]

Excellent keys...

[@CatmanUnlimited]

my mind just exploded all over my computer screen.

[@mrpwnen]

holy fucking shit. that man's fingers :O

[@angularblocksom5478]

My new metric: anything on KZbin since 2007 with around 65k views may be worth watching.

[@fezufo]

great playing! sounds a bit like Jordan Rudess "RA" which is also awesome in some parts.great none the less.

[@S1NE4T3R]

I've been watching your videos, and I must say, you pack a whole lot of talent within that big lot of keyboards. In some ways your style reminds me alot of a certain keyboardist. Are you by any means a Jordan Rudess' bastard child? Really sweet music, nice videos. BTW, I'm also a fan of your R.A.B. flash series. Never guessed the creator of those series would be a talented keyplayer. Cheers xD

[@zafilerusse]

wooow how excellent

[@hamsterdunce]

JD-800 for $1100 new in 1992, but used ones go for half that on eBay. Microkorg, $350. Moog Little Phatty about $1300. M-Audio USB keyboard controller $99. (What the heck is a jawn?)

[@1higherground]

Atsa SOOOOOOOOO NICE!!!!!!!!!

[@PATROUXAMBIENTMUSIC]

Just Amazing , well done ;o))

[@marq74]

I want a copy of that song!

[@lawerence000111]

wow that rocked my world :O

[@Korgator]

WOW! PERFECT!

[@arnalsex]

wow your really amazing ...do you have cd's out?

[@ThinJizzy]

I know that, but the POINT is that SOMEONE has done it on guitar, and it's here on KZbin.

[@brettymike]

Hi Dave,you are totally Brilliant at entertaining standing up. Keep standing,I reckon keyboard players sitting down look Lazy. Thankyou for another favourite,10 stars from me. Regards, Brett.

[@drdigital1]

Your Awesome!

[@RenatoMarinoHenz]

This is just fuckin great!!! Congratulations!!

[@ThinJizzy]

yes, but the original comment I was speaking to said, "...someone should play this on guitar...", And I meant to say, "It has been done before, just search." I just said that if you search the original song name, it would show that a few people have played the lead on guitar, not just pertaining to the original band who played it on the fiddle. And I'm 14.

[@XHALE303]

WOW sick man!! 5* ...you've just played yourself in2 my synth & gearlist ;)

[@BirbarianHomeGuard]

GNARLLY

[@phoenix2972]

nice office setup!

[@michaelbauers8800]

Cool video. I am sure you know better than me, but I think the solo patch you use at the beginning would sound better brighter ( could be my playback system that's at fault too.)

[@DrowningDelevan]

sick breakdown on the microKorg around 2:40

[@ThinJizzy]

But, if YOU read the conversation, I never said that the entire song was on guitar. I said it was SOME.

[@TheWindWaker01]

that roland sounds awesome.

[@vanmichelgeliss8674]

Top...cool...👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘

[@manafao]

u r sooooo koooool dude u play like heck!i mean thats a great tune!!! if the guy in the vid is hamsterdunce hes my IDOL!!!!

[@hamsterdunce]

One really, really patient one... :o)

[@FaunOfTheDevil]

Dang impressive! Any tips for a keyboard player that wants to get into synths?

[@NR92CP]

Never mind, I just found that video and it was you who posted it. Sorry for the ignorance.

[@tylerwoods1960]

God Damn Straight !

[@uberwater]

*tear*

[@mason3750]

DUDE! UR MY NEW MUSICAL HERO! haha UR AWESOME! i have the same checkered wrist band btw. lol -m@son

[@ThinJizzy]

Well, SOME of it was on guitar. But, the point IS that if you search on youtube "Devil went down to Georgia Guitar cover", you'll see that its been done.

[@ezquimal]

man you have the new moog, why you don't make a demo of this key.

[@kazmatt1]

whoa!!!!

[@DodgyMan12]

I don't know why you think you should apologise to Charlie Daniels as this song is the best version of this song besides the original and this sounds just f***ing exellent. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK ON NEWGROUNDS DAVE!

[@DJDigitalJosh]

WOW!

[@Shmeeka]

the first one in the video on the top? If i'm correct that is a moog phatty

[@jamjam182]

I wish i had cash for a set up liek this en the skill to produce something as good as this!

[@toxin299]

this would be one awsome techno song. IDK if they made one already.

[@hamsterdunce]

That's a Moog Little Phatty. Minimoogs are slightly outta my price range these days...

[@metalzone2000]

wow.....all I can say is wow...... I hate that song. It has been shoved down my throught since I was a weee little baby.... but that my freind......I think I just shat my pants abit.....good god. That was MASSIVE!!!! Great Job! A+

[@andreascruz]

Great video and skills. question what synth stand is that one where you have the little phatty?

[@hamsterdunce]

C'mon... can't be. Thanks though... very nice to read & cheered me up! --Dave

[@deathmaxed7210]

dude this vid is fuckin awesome five out of five.

[@spid3rchick]

Wow!

[@mattsynth]

Go have a beer, that was great.

[@MetallisticA]
