Bio
Multi-Instrumentalist Reinhardt Buhr has composed 17 albums in 10 years time.
At the end of 2019, his work went viral over social media, reaching more than a hundred million views across Facebook and KZbin.
Reinhardt combines the Laser Harp, Spanish Guitar, Electric Guitar, Electric Cello, Australian didgeridoo, Israeli Shofar, Spanish Cajon, Synthesizers and Piano via a live looping system to create an extraordinary symphonic orchestral sound in only a one-man improvisational act.
Reinhardt Buhr was born in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1988 and grew up with
no passion for music at all, In fact, as a teenager, he became a computer gamer and
began abusing alcohol at a very young age. His first job was at a small liquor store, where he earned 20 cents an hour. After that, he worked as a packer in a supermarket. His plan of
becoming an animator failed when he started abusing marijuana and alcohol on a
regular basis.
At the age of 19, two of his closest friends began learning the guitar. Reinhardt
immediately fell in love with it. With no formal training, the three friends simply
taught themselves how to play. A year later, Reinhardt was inspired by a Flamenco
guitar player, and began learning Flamenco Rumba Guitar from KZbin videos.
One day, he was sitting at a small roadside steak restaurant with his parents, and
there was a man playing solo guitar covers. Reinhardt approached him to make
small talk and the owner of the restaurant overheard that Reinhardt played a bit of
Spanish Guitar music.
So the owner asked Reinhardt “Why don’t you come back next week to play, and I
will give you a steak and 10 dollars in return?” So Reinhardt Buhr played his first
solo Spanish guitar gig that following weekend and hasn’t stopped since.
Reinhardt Buhr quickly became known around South Africa and formed a duo
band called “Wild Lettuce”. He and the drummer performed many national
tours. They also opened for a lot of great artists. But unfortunately, Reinhardt fell
into a dark habit of abusing alcohol, drugs, and cocaine.
This affected him, his career, and everyone around him in a very negative way.
The band broke up. Reinhardt Buhr went solo and left his hometown, hoping to
escape the drug scene, only to find himself moving in with someone who also had
a cocaine problem. The whole cycle started over again.
At the end of 2016, Reinhardt hit an all-time low. He was at the point of death. He
fell on his knees and pleaded with God to step into his broken life. When things
could not get any worse, God in His full mercy and grace, stepped in and changed
his life completely. Reinhardt and his wife, Mandie Buhr, both experienced God’s
salvation and were baptized together. They left a lifestyle of abusing, marijuana,
alcohol, and drugs, and began on a beautiful road of salvation and healing.
During the biggest transition of his life, Reinhardt was playing a gig one day. As
he was playing for hundreds of people, He experienced a voice telling him to make music
for God. When Reinhardt made the shift from playing for fame and fortune to
playing for Christ Jesus, everything about his music changed! You can even see
the transition from his earlier album called “Organika 432hz”, to his latest album
entitled “Life”.
To this day, Reinhardt Buhr makes music to God. This is his way of worshiping
the Creator and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

I'm very excited to share this Spotify Playlist with you all, containing the 30 most listened songs of recent times! spoti.fi/3tDqZsL

[@StrikeTeamIJayPIMP]

met you in berlin. talked about the 505. bought the 505. love the 505. thx

[@Aesthir]

Ordered a 505 last night. Very excited for it to arrive. This video was exactly what I needed, absolute expert play

[@shearfury147]

i am buying the 505..so amazing

[@philloshippos]

same here :D

[@GordonDanielsMusic]

505 over the 300? if I'm on guitar and percussion and other things? ... i am using most my guitar rig on the ground... but do you think with the switches at your hands .. for a guitar player/singer.. thats also looping with bass, uke, keyboards, drum pads... do you think the 505 over the 300? thanks

[@StrikeTeamIJayPIMP]

@@GordonDanielsMusic just get the FS-6 and u'll answer ur question :-)

[@blotharkheim]

Im a huge electronic music head and I absolutely love your approach to making electronic sounding music using natural instruments. Some would call this "World" music. Just fuckin great, im a fan

[@flawlesssolacemusic]

I resonate with your journey and I am on a similar path. I’m transitioning my music into an offering to God. I also struggled with addiction and substance abuse that caused a great deal of damage. I love to see the progress you have made. Thanks for your inspiration brother.

[@hechter80]

Reinhardt, you can explain it 1 mio Times.. for many of us it is Magic. Thank you for sharing. Bought full discography next morning after I found you on KZbin and can't stop watching and listening all your stuff 😊

[@zacharyparker1776]

This video is exactly what I've been looking for! I've been scrolling through videos of rc 505 trying to find how to best route everything (where to put mixer in chain, how to connect guitar/synths etc) and this is the only video I've found that actually gives me so that info. When I saw who was in it I correctly assumed it was my best bet. I've seen some of his performances and they're actually what inspired me to get an rc 202 (will upgrade when I can) and a novation circuit. I'll probably use my mpc one instead of the circuit, but now I know the best way to route everything. Thanks! Awesome performer!

[@thomasavignon7661]

You are very inspirational. You are the perfect example that everything is possible if you keep doing what you love. Thank you for your music

[@jonathanredman8497]

I have returned to watch/listen to this again. So good to hear some real talent using a Loop Station for more than just mindless beat boxing or techno loops.

[@doty6443]

As a musician that can play multiple instruments, what you do is truly incredible. I got nervous watching this from all your constant moving, pressing buttons, picking up different instruments and everything.. definitely great!

[@MikaelLewisify]

Me too. How does he keep track of everything? Just practice I guess.

[@merlinsdog4530]

I used to have loads of fun on fruity loops years ago making music like this, then I taught myself guitar and piano for a change of pace, I'm going to get a similar set up to you and have loads of fun creating more music. Thanks for showing the kit you use!

[@Scessions]

its worth it

[@yasirshaw3621]

You are amazing and inspirational I just started my journey to become a film composer and this video has motivated me great deal, thanks for sharing your creativity.

[@robertstapleton3598]

This is brilliant! First of all - a great setup that is really well thought out. Secondly, a very nice explanation of how it is set up. And thirdly (and most of all), a great performance. There must be a hundred steps to make that performance work and you did it perfectly. Truly amazing.

[@pomeranianserenader9238]

Robert Stapleton right on

[@lonniesands1716]

I love how much you are doing with a minimalistic approach.

[@Gibson1961SG]

I came for the loop set up and stayed for the bad ass DIY Didgeridoo.

[@ReinhardtBuhr]

Hahahaha My dad built it :) He is awesome :)

[@Gibson1961SG]

@@ReinhardtBuhr You know what they say, "A family that didgeri's together stays together." For real though, you better appreciate how awesome your dad is!

[@ReinhardtBuhr]

@@Gibson1961SG The funny thing is, he can't even make a sound on the didgeridoo :D I appreciate him a lot! Taught me so much and always great full for him

[@ubermarklar]

A very neat rig very well used! It was a pleasant surprise to see my old stomping ground when the video started. I used to live in Capri village.

[@michellew.3691]

You are such an amazing musician! Really inspiring to many of us! Your music has so much depth & soul. Thanjs so much for sharing! ❤️

[@Shamwilder]

I'm a subscriber and have to say your music has been a great inspiration during my process of learning to loop. Thank you so much for this series! You have a lot to offer the world 🍻

[@Frankson909]

really like your style!!! cello is just an amazing instrument! how you combine everything is just awesome. keep it going

[@theguywithabow]

Reinhardt...thanks for the "behind the scenes" tutorial....it really shows a lot of the technical bits that you can't see when watching your other videos...all of those small mixer/delay/rc505 filter tweaks .....you're truly a master, not only on your instruments, but the live arrangement technique is awesome.....THANKS ! (from a fellow busker based in the UK)

[@ReinhardtBuhr]

Dean Squire Thanks so much for the kind words!

[@gurtana]

Amazing musical palette, wonderful tones, superb tune! But most also, thank you for sharing your connectivity process. I had never thought to put my boss looper after the mixer. But if you are making music like this, there is no reason for me not to - it makes sense for the work /sound flow. Thank you for the tip!

[@lolikreuzberg.]

Wow... What a show and what looping talented artist you are!!! Thank you and applause👏👏👏

[@22khanbaba]

You are master of many things knowing how to work with looper knowing how to connecting all that stuff together from the other hand knowing how to play different musical instrument and how to mix them and creat the magical music god bless u

[@pubbets7290]

I love this music. It reminds me of the background music on the old computer generated visuals VHS tapes that I used to play in the early/mid 90s when djing at raves.

[@braazuu]

Beautiful sound😍 so impressive and delightful😃 goes straight to the heart! Thank you so much😊🙏🏼

[@TheMusicman1204]

Bro this is beyond impressive . So dope to watch you work . Your living the dream my man

[@MiCtiSilen]

Dear Reinhardt, your music is a huge inspiration. I wish you GOOD LUCK and many many new ideas ! TAKE CARE and many happiness ...

[@MikaelLewisify]

Wow, this is cool. Whole new world to me. Just ordered a RC595 MKII today. You’ve just given me so many ideas. Thank you.

[@vubear]

Wow! The best video I've seen for ages. Vistas of God's own country, techno geek stuff & the best looping ever! Beautiful, cosmic stuff. The head-cam was a clear demonstration of how I'll never have the brainpower to do be able to do it.

[@thenostra-ramos9384]

Thanks for this video. Perfect explanation of the set up. I just ordered my 505. Keep up the jams!

[@yenah9301]

Excellent! Thanks for the video, I just got the 505 for my son's Christmas present and this is inspiring thanks again

[@JFK1180]

That was great. Learned lots. I am getting the RC-505, no question. Thank you for a GREAT demo

[@ReinhardtBuhr]

Anytime!

[@bluegrassmagee8697]

Really Love your Music & was very interested how you setup looping. What a treat to do this for us!! Thank You! 💖

[@Hitnrun69ify]

You shock me every time I see your videos my friend, and a big thumbs up for your dad too. What's funny here is, I also have that RC 505, Novation Circuit, same Mixer, Zoom H6 and never used it still in the box... lol its sad on my part I know. Great job brother

[@jumpstar9000]

Very kind of you to go into such detail. It really helps to see a master break it down. Incredible stuff man.

[@pazos16]

music lover from brazil! amazing work , keep going

[@dirpyjosh]

Syncing The Loop Station with the circuit is brilliant! As well as your improvisation and skills! Definitely like comment and subscribed! Thx man!

[@davefernandez4055]

You didn't have to share this information but you did anyway for our sakes. It's probably worth thousands in value. Thank you.

[@williamdixon4812]

Very mesmerizing. Very relaxing. I just ordered 505 yesterday, was looking up 505 looping and different styles of music. I came across your setup video. Thanks for taking time to show your equipment and setup.

[@ReinhardtBuhr]

It's my pleasure and thanks for the kind words glad you liked it :)

[@JoeSmith-zi3bi]

William you will be very happy with your new boss RC 505. People are saying it is the best one available and I can believe it. I noticed several people are asking about how to MIDI sync it with drum machines. It is so simple it's not even funny. You just link them together with a midi cable and they figure it out on their own. Everything seems to auto sync with tempos also At least that's how easy it is with my equipment.

[@shearfury147]

sooo awesome...beautiful...im slowly building my own creation station...thank you for this video. you rock!

[@pyphoid3391]

If you ever come tour in the US I'd definetly pay to watch this. It's just entrancing! (Hence the genre). I'm half tempted to go to south Africa just to see you perform live!

[@ibeatits]

This is awesome man. I'm here for all the creative videos of you with the RC-505. Really like when you explain how your doing what your doing on there. Workin on learning mine always

[@ReinhardtBuhr]

I am very glad I could be of assistance! more coming stay tuned :)

[@VoidSeekerTechno]

That was so awesome to watch and so helpful! Thanks for sharing this!

[@jonmaddison]

So happy to have discovered your music and massive talent. I dream of being able to get into live looping and this is a phenomenal demonstration, as are all your tracks. Love the head cam view to be able to really see what’s going on. That must take some working out to get the arrangement and timings all nailed, and memorised!

[@jpromano_]

Very interesting. My favorite is the electric cello without question. Nice sounds...

[@MrGeoNexus]

Your demo let me speckless .. Deep respect for what you're doing!

[@andreashaynes3346]

Fascinating to watch and listen to the setting up of the tune. Beautiful 😀😀👍👍

[@lancesutterlin9985]

I’m sure I can make loops. But turning it into bad ass music like this guy is on a whole another level.

Dude I’m amazed by your set up! Can’t wait to check out more of your stuff

[@greenmedicinetm299]

You seriously have talent love your music and sounds brother

[@jeremyscloset]

That was really really interesting. I want one of those Loopers for some simple stuff from my own entertainment but when I watch what these guys can do with these things in a live environment it's miraculous. I love love love being exposed to this new way of Music in the digital age
