Atlas Sound performs "Te Amo" at Pitchfork Music Festival 2012

[@jamiekat]

Literally one of the most underrated musicians ever.

[@Sound8VisionVibe]

SideShow such a perfect mix between pop and psychedelia. Such raw lyrics. He will be remembered as one of this generations top sonic sculptors. Have you heard his Atlas Sound song Quark Pt. 1 and 2?

[@basskidyitzak]

@@ttt69420 which one bro would love to know what you think?

[@santiguichard684]

for the nerds like me: MXR MicroAmp - Boss TU3 - Aria AOD-1 Overdrive (also bradford used to use a Boss OS2) - Danelectro Tuna Melt - Behringher RV600 Reverb Machine - Ibanez DE7 Delay/Echo - Eventide Pitchfactor - Line 6 DL4 for vocals: Digetech Digidelay and Digiverb, Ibanez DE7 Delay/Echo

[@coldsixthousand1]

This is the most beautiful song ever. And you've simply got to love Bradford's intensity on that stage. I saw him live once, and it was like a religious experience. Maybe those people were staring fish-eyed at him too because of the sheer beauty.

[@69jrotc]

Just like Kurt Cobain and Jay Reatard

[@jbp06cc]

I love crowds at atlas sound shows, they look so bored, i probably looked extremely bored last year in austin, but the man put me in a flipping trance, weed cookies, their good for you

[@fastenbulbous]

That's not the point. He programmed the pedal to make that arpeggio and built a lush composition around it. He still created it, not the hardware. It's a lot harder than it looks to do this type of music well.

[@StNorthgateRecordings]

Actually he’s using the default setting on the eventide pitchcfactor. But regardless a beautiful music and man

[@69jrotc]

this song needs to be played on the radio. Atlas Sound I put up there with Lorde's new album and Frank Ocean's Blonde it's the same ideas but different performer. Te Amo is genius beautiful work of art I dare say geninue and universal and communicate to a universal audience , pop perfection.

[@angebomb]

His music is so much more intriguing than most of the shit I hear today. How can you not love Barry Cox?

[@verve92]

Saw him in Boston and he played drums at the end of this song...amazing. He never plays it the same twice.

[@SiobhanRukhadze]

Everything he does is so beautiful.

[@ppkyuela]

Wtf! I have listened to Atlas Sound before, but I've just notice it's Deerhunter's songwriter solo project.

[@ppkyuela]

How stupid I feel

[@inefavelerrante]

When I grow up, I wanna be like Brian Cox... This guy is just awesome!!

[@juaniriarte1193]

And? (?)

[@Savvier]

how is it going?

[@inefavelerrante]

@@Savvier oh, thank you so much for reminding me of this stupid comment hahahah

[@t0msk8]

this is just incredible bro

[@wbm3085]

Where's the rest of this set? watched it on pitchfork at the time - some amazing passages 💫

[@KloudSphinx]

I watch this almost everyday before I go to bed.. too good

[@Buugzy]

Amazing classic, imagine being able to see this Legend live!

[@MusicalEutopia]

7:52 What nightmares are made of.

[@jbp06cc]

***** of course not, I was just explaining my experience and how it was such a great sound of drone that it put me into a trance that I most likely would have with or without pot, I think it's really amazing what he does with just himself up there, really special

[@matthewskinner8093]

Bryant Hancock from The Antlers sounds amazing in this

[@SLRose-bc4rs]

Love it!

[@adammcneil1504]

whats that golden plate thing on the sound hole of his guitar? some kinda resonator-y type of thing??

[@aidanlong4134]

Just a fancy looking feedback buster. It's there because acoustic guitars feedback very easily when plugged in

[@jbp06cc]

thanks

[@smellthisbitch]

bradford cox is a genius

[@yonhillanema5312]

Love you Bill Cock !

[@Mark_Bayer]

Perfection

[@thefall1979]

Pitchfork had an apparition grace the stage.

[@betoski]

i like it, very dream like :D

[@xaza8uhitra4]

💕💕💕💕💕

[@Luke.hello.]

Gotta love Ben Coxy.

[@andrewalbertson1]

What’s his pedal setup? Especially the delay that does an arpeggio!!!?

[@santiguichard684]

Eventide Pitchfactor

[@HoserSaysWhat]

Man, reverb and distortion overload! Panda Bear must be jealous. I still love this song though

[@drugboysofficial]

he did his makeup like simple jack from tropic thunder

[@mojotampa]

Looks like Dylan during the Rolling Thunder tour

[@paulrpinson]

cool

[@inefavelerrante]

I'm still laughing about it. Please guys, Please stop hating my comment!!! hahahahaha

[@TheUprightCitizen]

I can see people on in the crowd that are clearly on acid or mushrooms and keep looking back at the sky behind them haha.

[@mickd1337]

Benny The Cox from Deerhoofy.

[@MrJamesSGBrown]

I want to see Walkabout!!

[@inefavelerrante]

yeah, I'm a idiot... But just for a moment, I dunno why I wrote Brian...JESUS,WHY DID I TYPE BRIAN?

[@MisterLibertarian]

Is that sunscreen? o_O

[@Creamy360]

nice hat grandma

[@TheBTKallday]

It's Bradford Cox...

[@paraLUCHS]

Brandfarth Cox ftw

[@LAvsPORTLAND]

I love him so fucking much, but I can not stop laughing at this comment.

[@specopgrammaragent]

Hey, Brian Cox might also be a really cool guy.

[@outbacknoir]

Ehh, I prefer Braden's stuff with Dear Hunters.. imo

[@chinaser121]

this makes me think of arpeggiators

[@C-Stanz]

i came

[@ThisGuitarPlayerGuy]

im pretty sure he could play that arpeggio, but he cant play all three at the same time. it's just not possible. even if he looped them after individually playing all three, it wouldn't be close to how he wanted it to sound.

[@maxfrenchm]

Gift for the 1 million subscriber Pitchfork?

[@soundslikemice]

face paint? sunscreen? zombie? what's the deal?

[@ErikPontifexAudio]

I'm guessing it's a Bob Dylan reference.

[@_ab7a]

what's that stuff on Deerhunter's face?

[@Sound8VisionVibe]

Thats Bradford Cox of Deerhunter (the band he plays in), he performs as Atlas Sound when solo. His face has a ton of sunscreen on it.

[@sokka06]

Holy shit it's Nicolas Cage

[@buddbbuddy9]

People! He's in WhiteFace. Its like blackface but scary as hell.

[@skateHEAVEN1212]

your loss

[@Drikiebluest]

pretty good, he looks like jared leto's joker

[@Bradlowe99]

Ezequiel Perlmutter isnt it fitting how bradfords only movie he ever acted in also had jared leto

[@iwannabevictorio]

this is bait

[@Luckyhat66]

How close minded.

[@SilicaCove]

ok i have the eventide pitch factor as well and the arpeggio he uses is just a preset on the pedal. so shut up all you hipsters thinking you know your shit, he didn't make it.

[@andrewalbertson1]

Was wondering what that was (ten years later ) thank you but!

[@inefavelerrante]

yeah I know. These dumb things you do in your life, y'know.... Like writing the name of one of your favourites composers wrong,

[@lucaserojas]

What even is that pedal or effect he is using?

[@uphillracer]

poor guy

[@uphillracer]

because he does an extrordinary performance and i can tell that he can tell that the people dont really care

[@seanstuchbery]

+uphillracer honestly i'd be standing there mesmerised as well if i ever get so lucky to see him do this live

[@jamiekat]

+uphillracer i wanna see him and his band so bad (he tends to open as atlas sound b4 his band plays a show)

[@breatheinthepinkair]

the end of this clips is just awful.

[@christianmendoza1813]

simple jack

[@AustinKorte]

mean

[@69jrotc]

ah the irony wait until you see he is not just that guy most people like the real thing beautiful soul

[@1kooldood]

Dude has Marfan's Syndrome

[@morgancatherwood5665]

um, I went to music school and play guitar, bass, drums and sing. I've spent my life around accomplished musicians who spend their lives studying music. I can tell you for a fact that this guy is not underrated. I'm not sure this has earned any rating at all, actually

[@99Sox99]

he doesnt look well

[@Dgbygvg]

he has Marfan's syndrome (naturally born with it no cure) and the white stuff on his face is a lot of sunscreeb

[@oldJimmyWales]

Damn.. no Logos or Let the Blind stuff. Last album sucked

[@rolodexpropaganda]

Jimmy Wales parallax didn’t suck

[@bothecat1966]

what time does the mini bus come to take him home?

[@Sound8VisionVibe]

Save your “opinion" for your dog after your done fucking it.

[@rolodexpropaganda]

Anthony James this man far from slow . Lmaooo clueless fuck

[@Dgbygvg]

Hey old man you forgot to take your meds, you must be imagining things.

[@zakharsmirnoff]

i'm shocked. nowadays you need only one move to play this gorgeous arrpegio! It is not a musical talent to pull the string! i don't like this artist

[@chinaser121]

this makes me think of arpeggiators
