[@ScottFichter]

Subbed, I can't get enough of your channel man.

[@oldgoat381]

Now that's some incredible keys bass and what I one day hope to be able to do.

[@martinlubitz3171]

Yeah, it is amazing to watch your hands playing complete different things . Groovy time👌

[@mootbooxle]

thank you!

[@Roderick_Legato]

You know how to draw a crowd!

[@mootbooxle]

always hit or miss at these types of events!

[@DarrellNutt]

mootbooxle No Roderick is right by the end there’s actually a crowd!

[@winddealer1]

"That was Sweet! And I don't even like sugar in my tea!" amen.

[@DarrellNutt]

Alt V7 Best compliment ever

[@gaurd3]

Love how empty it was at the start and then filled in by the end

[@kwaping]

This music fills me with so many positive emotions! 🥰

[@mootbooxle]

Thank you! That is definitely what I aim to do with music :)

[@DestroyER82]

Freakin ride! ;)

[@marinerecords58corshagwen]

As usual : Excellent!

[@rooftoproller]

Yes! I listen You from the video named "The Getto Talkbox"! Finally You are famous! I love this!

[@trigg015]

great bass sound with the ARP.

[@CurtisGabrielMusic]

Wow, you guys are incredible! This was such a joy to watch

[@granzglobewalker]

Sweet Jesus this is incredible - around 6 min, waow

[@steelfistIII]

Moot great sound captured on all of the live material. Darrell's kit sounds tight, keyboards tight. I had to pay attention when u started bending notes on the mini moog and maintaining that bass line. Good stuff! Thanks again for sharing!

[@mootbooxle]

thank you! That’s all Darrell’s mix! He mixes all our live stuff. We’re slowly working on an actual album of this stuff.

[@benadoeffects]

Absolutely loving it. Please keep the good work.

[@wolfmoon9540]

man your hands ! your magic

[@JollyRoger150]

Great Chemistry!

[@coltranius]

Dude, you’ve some funky key bass chops!

[@MaEasy_official]

Hu yeah!

[@makers1958]

This!

[@gangofgreenhorns2672]

Hope you're doing okay man, haven't seen anything from you in a while. Much love.

[@mcnovae7456]

excellent!

[@GwonkoBest]

Bro I got here from your talkbox vid. This is an amazing set gj

[@mootbooxle]

thank you!!!

[@fenderstratguy]

cool!

[@joellawson749]

So I heard California 2pac.. reminded me of building a talk box after finding your videos (many years ago) I did a little search and found you again! Your just a friggin amazing musician! I'll stay up on your videos, life has slowed down ;) Thanks for all the time & effort in the video's you post, they are all great.

[@mootbooxle]

I appreciate it so much Joel!

[@gaurd3]

This is why I'm taking piano lessons. I need to release the power of my gear!

[@pcuimac]

I guess keyboard and band sessions with a teacher who knows his/her stuff would be better. Most piano teacher only teach you how to play classical pieces from paper. They never teach you jazz cadences.

[@muzixco]

Man this was funkier than 7 day old cheese! :-)

[@snardash_1197]

That must be something else just seeing a minimoog out there in the street lol great music!

[@mootbooxle]

thank you! Yeah I thought it was funny! I have a pic of the setup by itself during the day before anyone showed up...it is super weird just seeing an Odyssey and Minimoog just in the middle of the street!

[@zedudli]

Amazing

[@tunnis7us]

amazing stuff :)

[@mootbooxle]

thank you!

[@RingwayManchester]

5:19 onwards what is this awesome sound called? Amazing work I can only hope that one day I’m half as talented as you

[@mootbooxle]

thank you for that great compliment 🙏 ! That tone is what I consider my “signature” Minimoog tone, even though it was inspired by the king of Minimoog lead, Jan Hammer. It’s two narrow rectangular waves at 4’ just slightly detuned. I also have the aftertouch on the keys routed to the pitch so I can bend the pitch by adding pressure.

[@RingwayManchester]

@@mootbooxle ah I see! It’s phenomenal!

[@gangofgreenhorns2672]

Great as always. You should give us a rundown of your current gigging set-up would be a fun video--like peddles, and stuff too. Stay safe.

[@mootbooxle]

thank you! And yes I will do that!

[@KyleWhitlock-Music]

Hey Moot! Is that your vintage minimoog to your right or the Behringer clone?? That lead sound is to DIE for bro!!

[@Instramark]

Hey Moot! May I ask what the synth you are using for the bass is?. Got to have it. I am 65 and was one of the first MIDI pro artists around. I saw many great performers switch to MIDI. None of them had anything on you. You play real music with machine assist instead of the other way around, and with top level feel and style. Very refreshing. Those bass lines! You are a timeless musician and are incredibly good! Wow! Been watching your vids all day. Am a fan! Where was this recorded? Ybor maybe?

[@mootbooxle]

thank you for the comment! This was recorded downtown Fort Myers, Florida! They have street performances like this regularly! The bass is a Korg ARP Odyssey with the mk1-style chassis.

[@Instramark]

@@mootbooxle Thanks Moot! Are you still giving lessons? I was on a site about your giving lessons. I signed up but got no response.

[@mootbooxle]

@@Instramark that’s odd- usually if someone signs up it makes an entry on my calendar, charges you the fee, all that stuff automatically! That’s very strange. I am still giving lessons but my available times are pretty slim these days! Performing almost every night with different bands.

[@Instramark]

@@mootbooxle Wow, that was fast. Thanks. Actually what I hoped for was just one or two, compensated phone calls or zoom, assisting me in selecting current gear and software as I re-enter the realm of wearing all the hats like you do. I stopped sequencing and synced recording in the mid 90's and have recently made a large study of available paths in current revording tech. Would love some consulting on my current research. Would that work? It would be like a short easy gig for you sharing your brain and a favor to an old but early day midi path finder. Glad you are out gigging!

[@mootbooxle]

@@Instramark I’d be glad to do it! Do you mind to send me an email to ogmoot at gmail ? We can chat further and set something up. Cheers!

[@brassmonkey8098]

I watched you ghetto talkbox video and you have been uploading for 13 years?!?!!!!!

[@mootbooxle]

13 years with too many breaks between videos!

[@pcuimac]

I hope you are ok and still have an income. I am willing to send you some bucks from Europe or buy some music, if that helps in any way. All the best and stay healthy.

[@mikelewis762]

The place where no one dances......sigh

[@mootbooxle]

yeah :( tough crowd!

[@youngchool]

@@mootbooxle Wonderful music! In the Improv 4 video, there is a little boy or a girl (3-4 yr old maybe) who sits and listens to you guys, it seems as if the mom was puzzled and asking 'what are you doing kiddo?'. Thanks for the music, I discovered your channel today, like 20 min ago. One question, you use the oddy for bass duty while using Mini for the leads. Would it be very different if you flip them? Just curious because Mini is known for its synth bass sound. You could have had two minis so I wonder if you like the oddly for bass. What do you think of Pro-One? Keep up the great work!

[@mootbooxle]

Young Choe thank you for your great comment! I appreciate you listening! As for the Odyssey vs Mini for bass, maybe this will help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2eWqaKagc16iJY

[@youngchool]

@@mootbooxleOh, so it was YOU! It was 'we met again'! Amazing playing, thank you so much, I am,enjoying many of your videos today. That boy might become a star in 15 years and might say, 'btw, there were two guys playing somewhere in FL when I was in diaper'... Cheers!

[@rikshaw2233]

😒 A Master Class in Keyboards & Drums. I would have to grow another Brain & more Fingers to play the Keyboards like that. 😒

[@DarrellNutt]

I don't think the drum player needs to rely on loops to play!

[@mootbooxle]

you cheater!
