Very entertaining and enjoyable, could you hold the Friday Theremin sessions from now on? 🤣

If this doesn't completely destroy any other YT video...ever....I don't know what will. 3 guys jamming on a theremin ....backwards...with their heads...beast mode!!!!

Best video of them all. You need to do a theramin video once a week.

holy shit good call on the knights of cydonia! I would have a real struggle with that one because it's not that well known in regular circles lol

Guys, if a blue wale hears this thing being played, It might come to mate with ya!😂😂😂 Top video as always from the channel that not only helped me choose the best digital piano I could buy, but also advance in learning it. All the best to you always!

3:30 damn, it's already plugged in!

OK ... fun it was .... BUT ... i do guess it does need a lot of training/practice to get somewhere in the ballpark ... 🤣 Thanks for sharing👍

Guys, do you need a theremin lesson? I’m about 8minutes in and you haven’t even tuned it 😂

Awesome thank you, your video was so helpful I’ve just bought a second hand Moog Etherwave 😊

This is hilarious! Anti-depressant LOL!

It helps a lot if you have perfect pitch.

i have perfect pitch but certainly not on the theramin lol, after this i'm never going to own one, where would you put it? at the bottom of the stairs perhaps for your guests to play.

I've always wanted to try one out

Given...love to get one too...please...Moog...

It looks like you guys had quite some fun, but it must be said the theremin here is not really functioning like it should to be musically playable, the zero beat point is way too close to the pitch antenna and so you were playing the field outside the zero beat, hence it is reversed and very non-linear. It sounds like it was not grounded properly and/or the pitch field calibration was way off. But you demonstrate well that even someone who is completely theremin-naive can have lots of fun with how it sonifies one's movements. At some point Leon Theremin was working on an instrument, the terpsitone, a platform with some sort antenna above it, that would sonify a dancer's moves, and a regular theremin can als translate movements of the body into sound as you guys found out for yourselves. There are plenty tutorials around how to properly calibrate, tune and play the theremin as a proper musical instrument, for that look up Carolina Eyck's and/or Kip Rosser's YT channel(s).

Exactly. Also all of them seemed to play with zombie hands, arms extended completely and holding them up high. It's quite awkward that way and easier to control if you move your hand/arm from your body towards the antenna. But I guess they are all beginners without any teaching.

Ah that explains it. I couldn't work out why the pitch seemed inverted

And outro track name is.... Police form Hell. Great video guys :)

i bought a cheap one off amazon and it does work well but i immediately knew id never master it. if you stick a load of reverb on it though and just randomly tweak it over a break beat you can make convincing trip hop all day long. also works nicely for dub reggae.

Ornithologists will love this video

This and the All about the Bass section are the best music series on KZread

hey, does the stand comes with it and do you need it ?

Funny video ! The documental movie of Leon Theremin is amazing… Bob was there … totally recommended… you gotta be a human tuner to play it though

If it's for shits and giggles get a Open Theremin. For around 100 quid, some soldering, an Arduino and some set-up you're ready to go. (Just saw the newest version doesn't require an Arduino or soldering anymore, but the price has gone up a bit)

awwww man I have always wanted a Theremin (even more so since I saw Joe Bonamassa play one with his guitar headstock!) I'm currently looking at the Etherwave's little brother, the Theremini, as it seems a bit more beginner friendly

I really don't want to hear myself using this thing when I see professional musicians groove like that

Hah - this was fun... Bill Bailey is a master at the Theramin.

Check also Carolina Eyck, Clara Rockmore, Hyrtis Gladys Hulot, Thorwald Jørgensen, Rob Schwimmer, Giulia Riboli, Gilda Razani, Peter Theremin and Lydia Kavina.

It's expensive in spite of its simple look. I want one lol

12:56 playing the Therebel

I WANT !!!

Jimmy page used to play one live as well

There needs to be a mic behind the camera if there is going to be a lot of back and forth dialog.

I remember Popular Electronics magazine (way back in the 60s) showed how to build one, but it seemed near impossible to make distinct notes with it as the sound is always 'on.'

Aren't you all playing from the wrong side? You should be playing over the centre part I think

Imagine if they made a smaller version, would it be the Theremini? *Mic drops*

Thank you - like a cute kid fun but got really irritating fast ;)

Dolphins.

Lol

That Harry Potter tune was definitely off.

Ear training urgent! 🤣🤣🤣

Is that the guy from Money Heist ?

This makes me feel sorry for the Theremin. You should have read how to set the pitch antenna before you started! You had zero beat about 2 inches away from the antenna, then the pitch was in reverse! You were all playing in the reverse field! Yeah I know it was done for bit of fun, a very expensive bit of fun!

;)

This just made me appreciate how horrible this would sound and it would stay that way until you master it, which would be years and years, if ever. If it were about 300 quid I might get one for the mess around.

Isn't that a white [REDACTED] 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Jack, it's tuned wrong. if you get further and the pitch gets higher, it's out of tune, should be the other way aroud

I would be much happier with the re-release of Moog Voyager XL than with this idiotic toy...

I believe the theremin was Bob Moog’s favorite synth.
