Mr Curly (contra bass clarinet)

[@BlackEmperorGaming]

If I ever made a sci-fi movie you'd be the entire soundtrack.

[@FiXato]

this instrument could go straight into an episode of Star Trek 😂

[@admiral5113]

Binge watching ds9 defiantly could have gone in quarks@@FiXato

[@Ribdd-os1us]

Did he do the soundtrack for the new Dune?!

[@DashGlitch]

@@Ribdd-os1us no that was hans zimmer lol

[@erder2158]

the sound of that feather duster blew my mind

[@cheekypasta55]

er der Omg right? That sounded almost as good as a real jazz clarinet haha

[@CurtF94]

er der 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I thought you was joking

[@jonnylpenman]

er der, both instruments were processed sounds, sorry if I ruined your day. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jn-yampjorWDbrc

[@youtubkeeper]

@@jonnylpenman I don't think that's true. He plays them without processing in the video you linked. Of course, there will be some compression and reverb, but that's the case with any amplified performance.

[@Wanderan]

@@jonnylpenman Have seen him live ... he is amazing

[@The8BitDrummer]

Dude, This is the coolest thing! I was just requested this on cast. Thank you for the awesome entertainment! :D

[@bigsnozitaliano9494]

Love you dude you’re awesome

[@BrickzSTM]

Send vid pls cant find it!

[@sakellaridesandre5629]

I met this guy 40 years ago in France: what a pleasure to see him again thanks to internet. He tauhgt us at the time a bunch of Bulgarian an Macedonian tunes which he collected himself over there. I still am amazed by his creativity! Thank you Linsey

[@gabrielseth2666]

I feel like this tune should be the opening song for a goofy cartoon of some sort... :) I dig it!!

[@EthantotheMax]

Look up "Jean-Luc and Dondoozat" and "Ozzy and the Cockroaches". This reminds me of those shows.

[@Keboplace]

or regular show

[@eclexian]

Yeah, like a 1930s or so cartoon

Man I remember this from when I was young, still just as magical

[@mackenziehall6841]

can you make a tutorial on how to make Mr.curly?

[@liamisafireplace]

He has a book on how to make it and his other instruments he sells it for idk how much but if you look around online for a while I’ve found it for free

[@KairuHakubi]

now we know how the Regular Show theme was played.

[@waxedtaters]

too bad they ended it

[@matheussanthiago9685]

​@@waxedtaters nah, it's better to have a satisfying end

[@onedavewreckingcrew]

Oh man.. This guy and Bobby McFerrin need to be in the same room recording something together.. one can only imagine the awesome that would ensue.

[@FiXato]

And I'd love to hear him jam with Armin Küpper's into a pipeline 😅

[@fofoxj25]

I am an elementary music teacher in Pennsylvania. My students absolutely LOVE your instruments. I can't wait for your DVD to come out. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@monkvoodoo8766]

7 yrs to late but still Mr curly is awesome

[@AnotherEconGuy]

That is, by far, the best duster solo I have ever heard.

[@wisemonkeys4511]

hey mr.Pollak, you should give a TED talk :D

[@SquealyD]

+Gabriel Barbosa Fronza I did: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHq2o3qtg5KsfpY

[@swoodc]

he has

[@SquealyD]

alto sax for Mr Curly and sopranino sax for the feather duster

[@nathanielthomas4437]

I'm assuming mouthpieces and reeds.

[@beaglemanzzz]

What did you use to mic them?

[@lucaperotti1070]

@@beaglemanzzz seems like shure mouthpiece pickups

[@WitchKing-Of-Angmar]

Although in reality it creates a scary Tubax didgeridoo and a half way between alto/soprano saxophone.

[@beefree5621]

Much gratitude! Thank you for the inspiration and the love you put in your music. Oh and thank you mr. Curly for being so funky!

[@knarly3013]

this is one of the best videos on the internet!

[@jayrobass1]

Mr. Pollak you are the man. HANDS DOWN!!!!

[@MrKukenimunnen]

This guy is awesome :D He just makes me feel glad.

[@ReaumWingblade]

it's been two years, Mr. Curly is still my most favorite instrument to listen to.

[@Jeff-ir2ee]

Spike Jones, eat your heart out! This is really awesome.

[@jakubkolcar6789]

This is just awesome. I first saw this video 13 years ago. Now its 2023 and I am still amazed by this guys creativity, passion and feel for the groove!

[@FLlTTER]

It sounds kinda like a C64 progressive pulse wave, but muffled and bassier

[@FLlTTER]

Cute "I Just Can't Seem To Quit" Ewok yo are you like stalking me or something It's creepy

[@FLlTTER]

Cute "I Just Can't Seem To Quit" Ewok hah nice What do you think of all the language stuff I watch?

[@Deluxeta]

With a barber-pole phaser.

[@thejerrymobile]

If I could give this video a million thumbs up, I would. This is the video that got me into looping.

[@tbonetime3568]

Bro does this guy play any normal instruments or does he just do with household objects

[@EdwardFregoso]

Galactic Bleachman he plays everything else besides real instruments like a FUCKING g

[@SverreMagnusVikan]

Have you seen the prices for real instruments? Ain't nobody can afford that.

[@hadesa5810]

@@SverreMagnusVikan your just broke

[@leovargha]

goku black You’re just rich. Not everyone has 3000 laying around

[@diminuendo61]

Sverre Magnus Vikan You can get a clarinet off of Amazon from 70-1000 dollars. That’s in a lot of people’s price range

[@CaptainNero]

One of my all-time favorites.

[@curtisf2266]

Mr. Pollack I have seen your videos quite a few times I love your style of music. I'm trying to find stuff similar can you give me an idea of who to look for and or a genere. thanks!

[@anniefroese]

Absolutely amazing! I'm with "he just makes me feel glad"! I can't stop smiling!

[@myopicthunder]

I cant get over the fart sound in there

[@yourbutler9988]

it kinda disturbed me though .. 😂😂 i think he didn't noticed it ..

[@slick8086]

I mean the show is called "Passing Wind"

[@dhq12345]

That's not a 'fart sound', that is just Linsey Pollak doing his thing. You may be confusing it because sometimes an anal sphincter produces similar sounds, but generally we refer to that as anally pollaking

[@FatTonyBBX]

My goodness, this is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. Bravo, good sir. -FT

Wow, love it so much. I want a Mr. Curley.
