My Trip To Japan | A Trip I'll Never Forget

[@andertons]

Love this....

[@TheSchane]

knowing that the president was once just "a guy on the floor" kinda changes my perspective a bit. Ultra rare to see something like that. Thanks for sharing, mate.

[@omikl]

"I can hear everyone's tinnitus". Thanks Dan. Coffee out of the nose and into the keyboard.

[@thehoppo]

18:10 I swear its the Japanese Danish Pete

[@kenthomas1613]

thehoppo When I saw the Japanese guy, I thought the exact same thing! Pete’s long lost half Japanese brother!

[@thehoppo]

@@kenthomas1613 I know right!!

[@kenthomas1613]

A brother from another mother!

[@vyge123]

and singing song from dragon ball :D

[@jassimabdullah8873]

the first thing that came to my mind xD

[@seanrosedotcom]

I started playing in the 80s and BOSS has never not been at my feet, and I don't think I will ever change that. I love their pedals I own.

[@indytrucks2003]

I move back to Japan in about a month and I'm super excited. I love it there. The people and culture are so spectacular.

[@blakewicklein8571]

Just got my Boss Katana 50 for Christmas and love it. Thank you to all the great people at Boss who created such an awesome amp.

[@MurrayWilliams]

The slomo shots are breathtaking! You are becoming a great shooter!

[@MikeMeierJapan]

I’m glad you liked it here. Been living in Tokyo for 18years now.

[@ruinroadie]

I went one month ago for the first time. Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and Tokyo again. This is one of the nicest culture and most friendly people of our time!

[@jasonbaker5430]

That would be an awesome trip. I've been a fan of the Jazz Chorus and the Cube since the early 90's

[@ArielPosen]

🔥🔥

[@RSVega90]

Videography on point, as ever! Was the tune from 16:23 onwards your own? It really compliments the visuals.

[@bjmn7d]

I'd like to know this tune as well.

[@mbeddard]

I finally found it: Memory Rain - Silver Krueger

[@gvtshorts2024]

18:10 Asian Pete

[@Kyfdcn]

Joaquin Lance 😂😂😂

[@jockelindgren]

Hahaha

[@maxscardanelli6185]

That made me laugh way harder than it should've. 😂

[@brianjones8018]

That’s exactly what I thought😂

[@bazookatooth]

Was thinking the same lmao

[@luigi1mario]

This editing is 10/10 my guy

[@ronaldmaday]

This is still one of my favorite videos on KZbin.

[@dlees8432]

i look around my studio, boss pedals on the floor, roland jdxi in one corner, rc 505 in the other, katana 50 at my feet. theres boss or roland literally everywhere in my room

[@budgetguitarist]

Such an awesome trip. Thank you for capturing all of that cool video and sharing it.

[@SpinPhoenixQ]

Great!! Welcome to Japan!!

[@MDCSYD]

Never really think highly of Boss but when I look around my room.... 5 x vintage pedals, A GT5 from ‘90s, a Roland RD300NX keys.... It’s funny really when people asks what gear I own and I usually talk about something else when Boss products are always around and here to stay

[@TMmodify]

I LOVE your trip videos dude ! Edited and filmed with taste. Your little chat about your first pedals reminded me of the first Rob Chapman Band videos where you actually used your 2 Boss delays.

[@IPushHard]

Ive never been a Boss "fan" necessarily, but Ive always respected them for what they do and how they do it. They are inventive. They keep prices reasonable. They make products that work as advertised. They make products that last. To me...Boss has been the standard for many years in the pedal market. They are the bar that other companies have to work towards. Much respect Boss.

[@mikaschwarzer1977]

This vlog is just beautiful....

[@GwilymJames]

Lovely editing with the slow mo / speed ramps and super zooms.

[@IStabz]

Ola with the fan tho..hahaha!!!

[@alienfermentationlab1657]

Gave me a good chuckle as well. Somewhere down the line I want to see a Ola/Rabea jam. I think their styles would be interesting together.

[@IStabz]

no doubt! "RabeOla" It's what's for dinner! ha ha!! \,,,/

[@jacksorx]

@@alienfermentationlab1657 that would be siiiiiick

[@tarkenton3895]

Rabea for coffee with ola

[@IStabz]

@@tarkenton3895 Absolutely! Gots ta' happen! 🤘

[@savm8164]

Your mini docu-series are always interesting, keep up the greats videos! and playing

[@BoyAditya]

18:18 LOL you guys sang Dragonball Z theme song

[@TheCoronaMortis]

I love your blogs like this. They’re so well produced and made, editing an all. They’re so aesthetically pleasing.

[@thefirstdude]

Nice job on the trip video. I’m envious of the BOSS and Roland visits. I’ll join you next time-just let me know. I’ve been to Tokyo three times in the past six weeks and drove past northern Hamamatsu twice last month. 🚗💨

[@KaoswareMetal]

So cool, this make me wanna go back to Japan to bad !!

[@Oilid]

Next Ola and Rabea factory visit: L'Oreal. Because you're worth it!

[@BuzzieBee77]

What a great watch cheers Rabea.

[@RotseNRogers]

Dude, the way you edted that first walk in Tokyo is sooo well done! love it!

[@Harrysound]

Japan is awesome

[@austinm419]

That city sequence was beautiful. Great filming.

[@Nisom630]

I love how Ola looks like an owl viking

[@maxscardanelli6185]

You know, now that you mention it... You've completely changed my perspective of Ola. Thanks...

[@deroyamplification1400]

Lots of visual candies in this. So impressed!

[@ZachComa]

My first pedal was a Boss DS-1, I wish I hadn't lent it out years ago...never to be seen again. I miss the little guy, oh the memories. We'd stay up all night and tell stories about being on stage together, 'twas quite memorable.

[@ashbaldry2157]

Excellent video, I would love to go to Japan! Glad you had a good time

[@tomotoole3898]

I love Boss gear and use their pedals exclusively. Reasonably priced, built like tanks (my original MT-2 still looks almost new), and easy to use. If you have no idea what to do with the pedal, plug it in, set the knobs at noon and it sounds great.

[@_RLP]

Boss rocks. Name says it all. And kudos on that outro, rabea. Thanks for sharing, mate

[@eilrach299]

Thanks for coming to Japan! If you ever find yourself coming out again and need a free interpreter, feel free to call - would be more than willing to help! Glad you enjoyed your time here. I might just have to try and visit that Roland museum. And I love my Katana too!

[@Crinkle65]

I want more!! Living the life. Thanks for posting. Loved it.

[@robsonkingstrat]

Probably your best video to date Bea. Loved it man!

[@KaoswareMetal]

Damn you took some really nice shot, what camera are you using ?

[@NeXoPlays]

This video is incredible man, so inspiring! Loving the B-roll shots it’s so professional

[@coolman4202]

My first pedals were a BD-2 and CH-1! Gosh darn this was fun to watch, amazing cinematography and places!

[@IvanGarcia-tc8dl]

21:11 Quite the background music.

[@neilrocks25]

I went to Japan for 3 weeks and ended up staying for 7 years on and off. And boss pedals are awesome.

[@schecterseven3894]

Love my Boss Katana 50 , waiting on the Boss MT-2W Metal Zone sweetwater says coming soon whatever soon means. My first guitar was a Teisco Del-Ray I got for christmas 1970, I should have kept it.

[@SamlonHoldfield]

I've had to deal with Boss/Roland a few times in the past 10 years, for pedal issues, and their customer service has always been top notch. 11

[@Tyler_Wilson]

I just acquired my first Boss pedal and I absolutely love it. I need to own more Waza Craft! Simply a quality product.

[@huggieboi4484]

He was singing the Dragonball Z theme!!😂😂😂 nice

[@MrVegiita]

Thanks for sharing your trip to Japan, especially the tour inside BOSS. I owned many of those vintage pedals. Too bad I sold all of them. 🤨

[@ptrisonic]

I've been to Japan about four times now - I still feel like I landed on a (nice) but alien planet. It's hard to get out to the country to look around but I made it to the slopes of Fujisan. I'm in the music business too. Best, Pete.

[@tommylight1312]

Incredible. Also I really appreciate the good cinematography. Check out the Black Magic Pocket Cinema 4k if you are interested. Asian Pete and Ola with the fan was comedic gold.

[@JYelton]

Rabea, just going to add to the other comments about your stellar video editing! First walk in Tokyo was sublime. Thanks, hope you had a great time!

[@samuelxavier2473]

Nice vid, mate. Shame you couldn't show more of Roland/Boss. Maybe a part two?

[@punisher302]

Amazing experience, man! So glad you got to go, I'm a big fan of all things Japanese and can't wait to visit. Great camera work, too!

[@RyuuTsubasa]

The production quality of this is soooo top notch! Phenomenal job!

[@gentlewolf1279]

This made me want an Ola and Rabea tune... riffs for days

[@BrandonBames]

Lol you love your Madonna shirt almost as much as I love my death metal Celine Dion shirt.

[@frosty4863]

Very cool video, thank you for sharing.

[@hearpalhere]

So glad you had a great time Bea! I visited Japan back in 2000 and indeed, it feels a bit like you're on another planet. I only got to spend time in Tokyo, but we did go to Shinjuku and Akihabara. The people in the arcades were indeed super crazy! The businessmen going after work and playing and dancing were pretty off the hook too. Thanks for sharing your experience, it brought back many pleasant memories - including buying really awesome rare CD's in Hard Off! :-)

[@harrysteeletreo1]

I lived in Tokyo for 5 years, your video brought back some fond memories! BTW, I went to every Hard-Off store I could find, LOVED that store!!!

[@kidzkidz93]

Ochanomizu guitar street was next to Akihabara station!

[@Stikibits]

I worked in Shinjuku for a year or two...some great times.

[@bryanclarke1927]

Bet when you first met Chappers you never thought you'd end up here! Nice one!

[@RabeaMassaad]

To be honest no! I had NO idea hahaha

[@emigoth]

Amazing video and amazing place 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@ryanferris7841]

What a stunning place! That was some ridiculous gaming there.

[@TheSolfilm]

Oh, nice, I didn't know Ola could manage to play some "piano" ! and the "love theme" of the Empire Strikes Back besides that !!

[@Koga_fan_013]

Great video Bea. You did a great job of capturing the ambience with the editing.

[@rileyioacura]

I love your vlogs!! Perfection

[@anthonydevito1298]

Lot's of people dying to know the music at @16:40!

[@zeizer0]

it's Prodigious Mutants by Mitchell Doxon

[@dj311292]

Song: Memory Rain Artist: Silver Krueger Album: Crazy Eyes I couldn't find it on spotify, but you'll probably find it in the KZbin library

[@thegamingguy1]

Yoo Rabea the song at 2:10 is sooo tight i love the production on your vlogs

[@XiXora]

Spider season in my front garden around September. I hate it when they make a web across my front door…

[@JulesFox]

This video really exemplifies why Boss is the most appropriately named company in the world. They are Boss. The dedication and commitment to music and the customer , via superior Product design and execution is .. well.. Boss!

[@MrIantodd]

Some wonderful B-Roll in this video. Great vlog Boss are cool

[@fishingdjursland]

Hey Bea, awesome vlog. Thanks for bringing us along. Sharing your experiances with us. The people in the arcade, that was sick. \m/

[@eftalanquest]

ah, i was waiting for this since i saw ola's side of that trip. great camera work, great background music and a great shot of ola being ola.

[@hienovire3231]

Very informative video. You have a high standard for integrity for sure.

[@morpheusdokis175]

dood that kareoke guy was so cool!!! he needs a youtube channel! awesome video!

[@TomDavenport1993]

Sweet videography. The music and slow mo in the busy streets really captured a serenity of the place, though Im sure at the time it would have been really fast paced and loud. I would recommend adding a black outline to your white text at the end, or blur out the footage because the text does seem to get lost. What camera do you use?

[@Intensecure]

Great filming and editing. 👍🏻

[@maxscardanelli6185]

I've always wanted to go to Japan as well as China. This vlog made me want to go even more so now. So many music shops! Great job on the filming and editing by the way. Nice to know that the owner of one of my favourite gear companies was an on the floor dude at one time. Ola killed me with the fan as well.

[@rocketPower047]

they never have those slippers in gaijin sizes!!! Pet peeve of living here

[@syrehn69]

That was cool as. I did enjoy this video🎸😁😊👍💯

[@cliffsharp1771]

Rabea and the Pedal Factory/The wizard of Boss haha

[@ronvanhee]

[@arifgunawan9329]

Love this vid!!!

[@NelsLindahl]

It looks like you had a great time. I was hoping to hear some audio of you playing in that super foam room.

[@dennismullins4930]

I really like your travel videos. Good content

[@RoryMcLeanMusic]

TEISCO!!! ❤️❤️❤️ wicked vid man!

[@RabeaMassaad]

Thank you sir!

[@hugorivault9942]

As always @RabeaMassad , You rock !!! Amazing video bro ! Keep it real !

[@euanhmusic]

Dude, sick B roll footage on this! Quick tip: Peter McKinnon made a great video on how to remove that neon sign flicker from your footage, it's super simple.. I highly recommend it haha. Beautiful work anyway as always man!

[@manderson9289]

I bought a Katana because of YOU!! I love it. Go BOSS / Roland!

[@vara_v]

I have to admit, your filming is very cinematic.

[@albertta3903]

Hey Rabea fantastic video! Just noticed that during some of the cinematic scenes with the black bars that it doesn't entirely fit and some pixels show through! If you're using the Vashi Visual Extreme Widescreen pack, just make sure that you select the correct resolution. I've also noticed that if you use iMovie, it won't have this during preview but once exported it'll show this! Just make sure you select the correct resolution and it'll fix this!

[@fmathsson4097]

Beautifully shot video, man!!

[@brianjones8018]

Sad that we didn’t get to see any playing from you all in any of the guitar stores
