Kyteman - Root Canal Therapy

This video is a one-take performance, music is performed live without edits or external sequencers other than what's in the rack.

This video is my first exposure to this musician. It's exciting to hear a modular synth artist that utilizes melody and complex chord structure. This is really good stuff!

[@milztempelrowski9281]

if you can afford the er-101 you can do it too :p

[@hb-fc3jj]

No offence bud but have you been living under a rock? Some of the pioneers of modular synthesis - Suzanne Ciani, Klaus Schultze, Wendy Carlos, Georgio Moroder, Cluster, Kraftwerk etc.. - made incredibly beautiful and melodic music. I admit there is a massive trend for people to upload their modular bleeps and bloops to KZbin but they're mostly fashion victims with a 'look Ma, I can make 1960s robot noises too..' mentality. A good rule of thumb when separating attention seeking youtubers from real musicians is looking them up on Discogs and seeing what they've actually put out over the years. Sadly social media is over saturated with people who want to fly before they learn to walk - ie not put the hours in with re to learning any basic music theory and just being content with uploading meandering jams which go nowhere and never see the light of day outside YT. Just my 2 cents anyhow..

[@odderanswer]

I waited for the cables to grab your wrists and pull you into the guts of the machine. Love it.

[@ulriklm1]

The pain of life is constant and sharp, this eases thank you

[@keithkelley136]

Me talking about the importance of analogue: “You don’t understand how personal and intimate that performance is! For him to compose it, learn the instruments, arrange it, learn it, practice it, and then finally to PLAY (not recite) it is an experience that one rarely finds in a lifetime.” ... Does this mean I’m a hipster?

[@ShuffleInMotion]

No! It just shows the appreciation of such PURE music! No digitalized or computerized shit!

[@ShuffleInMotion]

thats cause yalls brains are still developing.

[@agamemnonc]

Colin, there are no words to express how amazing this is. Even if I was completely ignorant about synths and modulars - and how hard it is to actually produce music with them in real-time -, I would still be blown up by the music. Keep it up mate!

[@knobsstrings]

This is still the greatest thing after all these years. Timeless!

[@anthonycostine5067]

KInd of astonishing to see that this masterclass in live modular synth programming has only received 479 likes. It deserves so much more.

[@marc-andreaudet7808]

2.4k!

[@atomisback]

So right

[@AtticusEluih]

Absolutely one of the best modular performances I've seen.. Kyteman!

[@AudiosErgeonPOGZ]

By far one of the best modular synthesizer videos I have seen to date!

[@knurkas]

I wish I could give a thumbs up everytime i watch this.

[@rzrt]

God bless all the dentists out there, u guys are the real hero’s

[@jonathanshapero4083]

I rarely make it to the end of modular synth videos as I am easily bored and distracted. This is superb, and proves that polyphony on a modular can be done well - and live! Fantastic.

[@DinkusPony]

Jonathan Shapero anything can be done with a modular that big. That's the problem-- you can buy a 12 voice flagship polysynth for 3k these days-- a modular that's poly the same way (this video just does it through sequences and chords) would cost 10,20,30k

[@kwasnick991]

Jonathan Shapero hhfhbbfv

[@31pas0]

Where the fuck do you hear polyphony there?

[@JesseSep.]

Eldar are u fukn deaf or wut

[@Rafa-dn6eq]

​@@DinkusPony😅

[@Zanthxs]

Those sequences are absolutely, radically insane. Brilliant composition and live performance.

[@drysabre2242]

absolutely brilliant. this masterpiece demonstrates that classical music principles will stay forever. Arpegios, counterpoint - you name it.

[@akashchaudhari2]

This sounds like a Symphony! Absolute!

[@InvertedPopesMusic]

This is just chuffin brilliant. Great live performance and just look at all them modules. You certainly know your way around that beast. Marvellous.

[@Zanthxs]

What more could anyone need than this stunning, Modular Synth Entity . . . It's alive! Perfection!

[@AI-Heaven-Hell]

He's always a few steps ahead of the rest of us! Great improv and great harmonic structure.

[@andrewmartinfleming]

That Orthogonal Devices Sequencer rules. The OD + Circadian combo looks untouchable.

[@emanuelwinder1918]

Just wow! Masterpiece after Masterpiece. Thank you for your hard work! Love it!

[@TantuBeats]

This is craaazy

[@ColinBenders]

+Tantu Beats Sure as hell drove me crazy building it! haha

[@TantuBeats]

Colin Benders Haha, kan me voorstellen. Nothing but respect!

[@SebastienLeger]

+Colin Benders more impressive is the melody programmed on that ER 101, what a nightmare !! well done !!

[@jossecarstens]

+Tantu Beats mooi om te zien dat je dit nice vind Teun!

[@flood81]

unbelievable modular performance. the rack is nothing if you don't know how to use it - i'm looking forward to meeting you and watching one of your gigs in the future!

[@RobbieFitzAu]

This guy is patch bay modular synthesis master. Only discovered your stuff today. Love it. Third time I have now watched this today.

[@ConceptNull]

Made me cry a bit. Its so good!

[@orbitalforest]

This is just another level brilliance !

[@DomnuTous]

If you put Bob Ross in front of a synth cabinet and gave him some acid. Also, 666th like. :D Awesome performance

[@R---66---R]

Fluff, fluff...fluffy clouds here and there and some little place to hide for my Peapod the pocket squirrel and God bless!

worst comment on youtube

[@nemejeff]

When I first heard of your modular synth plans, I must admit I wasn't wildly excited. However, since you always manage to stun me with each and every piece of music, I thought I'd give it a chance. I am addicted and binging, thank you for opening my mind to yet another musical genre.

[@ColinBenders]

hahah you're welcome ;-) Serious note, I know my recent move to the realm of electronics might be a bit of a shocker for some who have been following my work for some time, I'll admit it has kept me up at night for quite a while. but what can I say, NOT doing this would really go against my nature. cant really explain, I just have to do this right now. I'm convinced it will all work out in the long run, who knows how this chapter will fit in my future projects (with or without orchestra). anyway thanks so much for giving it a chance, the fact that you went to look it up despite having every reason to just ignore it completely really means a lot to me!

[@paintsilj]

​@Colin Benders too many classsicists are precious or uptight about classical music. Music is music.

[@itskills-universityofchich5849]

This is the song I want played when Skynet's Judgement day arrive and I have to fight Robots endlessly until my ultimate demise. At least this is what my mind wonders to when I hear it every time.

[@Parialated]

I feel this is what "they" will be playing tho haha..

[@zwartgeloktgodenzoon]

Gadverdamme wat een dikke track!!!

[@Synthsound]

Wow, you are the best!!!!! Thx for that great show!!!!

[@joepmartine6065]

It's different, but it's Kyteman, definitely.I love it

[@zen_b4499]

Pure magic!! Beautiful song, full of layers always growing antecipating that full explosion!! The arp ofvthe main leads reminds another masterpiece but from Inf. Mushrom .. Doing all these on Mod. Sinth is just crazy good!! Niçe job mate 👏👏

[@fleshvessel6193]

I love that there are probably trained classical musicians and guitar virtuosos who look at a eurorack like this and have NO IDEA how to use it.

[@onsturicheitchaos8124]

Brilliant

[@romboid]

Insuperable!

[@djformalin]

Interesting ! Thx 🎼

[@eternalslumber8580]

Mr. Benders, te gek. Tot 013!

[@bwdnz]
