[@ShredViolin]

Thanks!!

[@abacacus]

Man. This is just so... weird. I love it.

[@ShredViolin]

Haha, OK. Thanks!

[@erithryn]

My first instinct while watching this is "re-damn-diculous", immediately overcome with "shut up dummy, this is in-damn-credible!" What a perfect mix of unbridled, over the top expression and mastery of what was once just an electric violin. Now I need one (doesn't need to look like a dragon... I guess...)

[@ShredViolin]

That's a nice complement. Thank you!! )

[@paulodetarso777]

Muito bom. Talento e originalidade.

[@ShredViolin]

Thank you!!

[@Choasnightmare]

[@ShredViolin]

Me too. But maybe a bit more to wait...

[@Brsnz]

this electro guitar sounds are coming from just one violin? hard to beleive, really :)

[@ShredViolin]

Yes, they are. :)

[@Hisoka44be]

Amazing as always, greetz Hisoka44 :)

[@ShredViolin]

Thanks!! :)

[@AilinDuran]

I've never pressed the like button so hard in my life :D

[@ShredViolin]

Thanks, Ailin! Hope you're well! :)

[@yuriovalchuk6821]

Лайк! Крутяк!!!!👍✌️🇺🇦

[@ShredViolin]

👌😄

[@LexCluthor]

I always wandered what it would have been like if Jason Becker decided to play the violin.

[@ShredViolin]

Wow, thank you for that. He's one of my favorites and an inspiration.

[@FuckTheSystem1995]

Vivaldi and Bruce Lee in one boody !Love him

[@ShredViolin]

Haha, thank you! :))

[@TramEFx]

Excellent video. good music w/ classic Shulman style however I thought the melody and solo especially lacked cohesion. Great sound for the distortion. All in all very good stuff, keep it up man...

[@ShredViolin]

This was an arrangement to have a vocal melody on top. That's why it seems this way. Thanks!

[@Chad01234]

Brilliant. The new Steve Vai.

[@ShredViolin]

Thank you!

[@zephyrt.4464]

was the whole song played with an electric violin? as in the distorted guitar like rhythm part too?

[@ShredViolin]

+Crimson K. Yes - all of the distorted parts are electric violin, including rhythm ones, but the clean violin parts are played with an acoustic...

[@zephyrt.4464]

+Michael Shulman that's really awesome man, hope to see more of your works

[@ShredViolin]

Have you checked the latest videos yet? :)

[@k6yardotcom]

boys and girls wanna learn violin, watch this everyday!

[@ShredViolin]

:))

[@nixellion]

Well, that would be a little nerdish comment, but.. Hey, thats a Dovakiin vilolin xD Insane violin performance

[@ShredViolin]

:)) Thank you!

[@CaptnP00pyP4nts]

Oh for sure! The KZbin vid "Insane Violinist" is the best live vid of him playing. He is a talented and soulful artist unlike anything I've seen before. Seriously, he and Dime coulda easily played together had they had the chance to do so. That'd actually be pretty bitchin

[@ShredViolin]

Dimebag is still one of my very favorites. It would have been an honor to play with him. Thank you!

[@EM.6979]

Why are you not on itunes yet?

[@ShredViolin]

I am now. :)

[@1uc4rd]

Amazing song I so have to share this. Is he's also gymnastic lol o.O?

[@ShredViolin]

Thank you! :)

[@philinmotion]

@hayseninusername there are more than one violon tracks, if that is what you are asking.

[@ShredViolin]

I think he meant the sound itself.

[@clairebeanbagchair]

This is amazing but nothing beats it when its live.

[@ShredViolin]

Thanks!! :)

[@talhavai]

Shulman should play with Steve Vai! That would be incredible!!!

[@ShredViolin]

Yes, it would be amazing! :)

[@magicthunder666]

can`t take serious a guy with those chrismas ligths

[@ShredViolin]

Hmmm, guess it didn't appeal to your holiday spirit? :)) Man, I gotta do something more evil then to be taken a bit more seriously... ))

[@Kingofcarnige]

Michael Shulman full body exercise coming soon lol

[@ShredViolin]

Haha. :))

[@MarryMeLancel]

@HandreyAlex haha meee tooo! some gerard butler would've made this even more awesome, and it was already beyond awesome to begin with!

[@ShredViolin]

Yeah, that would be even better, for sure! :)

[@Jagvillboienhatt]

@dran219 Now which intrument came first? :)

[@ShredViolin]

:)

[@edbegley5858]

SHRED

[@ShredViolin]

Yeah!! :)

[@heero7yui]

Am I the only one who senses a bit of Buckethead's tone/shred style?

[@ShredViolin]

You are correct. :)

[@ifeyanishaminya]

Does anybody have any idea how his face looks like? I can't see it because he's rockin' too hard! By the way, you're good! I love how you like to use your violin for a guitar sound!

[@ShredViolin]

:) Thanks!!

[@Wolgg]

how awsome you need to be to play dragon-shaped violin? :3

[@ShredViolin]

Just have to be brave! :)

[@_fleece_8592]

Hustler kid

[@ShredViolin]

Heh? 😁

[@Stratplayer05]

@talhavai Vaiolin?

[@ShredViolin]

Haha. Good one! :)

[@Igamikun]

Isn't this from your "In Twilight" thing you were doing? Honestly I'd be glad if that didn't come together because your talent is meant for something better than that.

[@ShredViolin]

Well, it actually didn't come together for better or worse, but my new project "Dancing Violins" has a potential, I think. :)

[@Sajiix]

at 2:23 the violin says RAWR

[@ShredViolin]

:)))

[@vheldius]

@1969INMYHEAD1 thats a stupid thing to say due to the fact that he is indeed a violin user. If he wanted to be guitar player, I'm sure he would be.

[@ShredViolin]

I love guitar, but play violin. That's about it. :)

[@UndergroundVictorian]

There's no guitar. It's violin and keys and a drum machine - which MS plays and programs. Plus he wrote it and arranged and produced it all.

[@ShredViolin]

:)

[@dogtorman]

someone go make a wikipedia page about this guy.

[@ShredViolin]

Yeah, it's still actual.

[@Gabice93]

Euhm... Nightwish ? Apocalyptica ? Turisas ? Eluveitie ? Rhapsody of Fire ? Somebody put that guy in a band !!!

[@ShredViolin]

Thanks, I wouldn't say "no". :))

[@MegaAnimemaster1]

Anyone else thinking this guy looks like Brandon Lee while he was in The Crow film ?

[@ShredViolin]

Maybe just a tiny bit? :)

[@MarisaRianna]

that looked funny at 1:08

[@ShredViolin]

K. :)

[@blackmetal7804]

If you're in a band make as much albums as possible. If not,Fucking do so. Your work is too Amazing not to be heard.

[@ShredViolin]

Thank you! I'm not in a band yet because for me it's been hard to find like-minded musicians. Check my discography, perhaps there's something that you'd like there: michaelshulman.bandcamp.com/

[@blackmetal7804]

Thank you so much \m/!

[@TheFatKid128]

IM SO CONFUSED ON WHICH PART HES FUCKING PLAYING!!!! HES LIKE PLAYING BOTH VIOLIN SOUNDS AND GUITAR, BUT HOW THE FUCK?!?!

[@ShredViolin]

All of it is violin. But in the video I could only be seen playing parts of each.

[@dxxa95]

._. IDK if someone would be with me but i want see michael shulman in a concert with Mago de oz

[@ShredViolin]

Well, I do know that band. If they'd ask me - I would have played probably. :)

[@Madam-ri8gs]

You're a modern day Paganini...

[@MisajitoxD]

Nice song!, but you don't have to fight like a Spartan wile playing.

[@ShredViolin]

I don't have to, but I want to!! :))

[@nixellion]

@Gabice93 Thats a dangerous idea, he will kick his mates with his legs, I think...

[@ShredViolin]

if they won't "comply'"- you mean? :))

[@TheFatKid128]

i meant guitar sounds

[@ShredViolin]

See above. :)

[@DugiDevetCarabolium]

i dont know what Cradle of Filth waiting for , there is electric metal violin...they need kick out those boring guitarists....

[@ShredViolin]

:)

[@crad12891]

@N10Aden Haha, I guess so xD

[@ShredViolin]

:)

[@STFUn00b11]

2 people have a tin ear.

[@ShredViolin]

:)

[@crad12891]

@superviolist15 Im disappointed in you. If you are the humble violist like myself (as your screen name suggests) I would expect better from you, not such a big-headded violinist retort. (nothing against violinists, simply a violin joke) His bow hold looks just fine to me. the strap, cause hes crazy jumping around being expressive and awesome, and that thing looks extremely expensive. All of these become trademarks of a musician's style, and hes got a lot of it.

[@ShredViolin]

Thank you for the insight. :))

[@Jagvillboienhatt]

@1969INMYHEAD1 It's guitar players that are wannabe violinists!

[@ShredViolin]

Yes, more like that. But they now inspire violinists. :)))

[@StringRoss]

i want ur music dude get som shit out :D

[@ShredViolin]

Got some new songs to download for free from my website now. )

[@x3leggedracerx]

lmao, he moves to much

[@ShredViolin]

Hehe. Maybe, maybe... depends on your preference. )

[@1969INMYHEAD1]

wannabe guitar player lol

[@ShredViolin]

Nah, just love listening to the guitar. :)
