A broken toy from the 1980s or... a legit musical instrument? 🤔

I can already see the amount of Undertale, and potentially the Thomas themes, using this instrument lol

Yeah! Really nice job. I'll have to check out Vansire, now. The Omnichord reminds me of "Memory of a free festival" by David Bowie, though I imagine that was a Mellotron. Impressed by your facility with all those instruments, not to mention production, editing skills. Defo subscribed 🤩
i've always wanted to buy an omnichord and holy that metamodernity cover honestly just sealed the deal for me that was ethereal

I've never thought that Omnichord was a old retro instrument and yet it was still useful. After you said that was used on Adventure Time, I was very impressed. I hope you can use it for your upcoming Soundtrack, Luke. And that music to try with the Omnichord is majestically beautiful.
The editing in this video is really sharp! It doesn't seem fair for one person to have this much talent
dude no way, i have one of these!! omnichords are one of my favourite instruments, but they're so obscure. mine broke a year or two ago and i'm still bummed about it
"I wasn't expecting a package this large" Ahah that's what she said My therapist When I told her about my emotional troubles

I really hope someone starts making omnichords again as they really are fascinating instruments, I love looking at contemporary and strange instruments that nowadays could be emulated, when you hear the emulation it sounds good, but when you hear the original it actually sounds way different, and I can't explain why.

I’d never heard of this song before watching your video, and I find the different in instrumentation makes such a huge difference: the original sounds like a very modern synth pop song that uses mostly virtual instruments and plugins to synthesize a lo-fi aesthetic. Yours reminds me of the mid-auguts indie music that used actual lo-fi instruments (including analog or VERY early digital synths) to actually BE lo-fi. I guess what I’m trying to say is yours is better. :P

I don't know an Omnichord from an omnibus, but this cover was great, and your vocals are very soothing
duuude. i love metamodernity and that cover is amazing. great work!!
Okay I'll wait)))
Yo those explanations of the omnichord would be SO GOOD to sample and then use in an omnichord song
“Today, we’re gonna check out this *Casual bicep flex* omnichord here and make some fun music!” (Joking aside it should be pretty awesome if it functions right!)
To be honest. the song with the singing, it was just BEAUTIFUL
This is so crazy interesting!! I'm totally in love with the sound the omnichord makes? It's got such an ethereal vibe! I've always wondered what instrument was used in the Adventure Time song "remember you" and now I know! and I really love your cover, the strings all sound so lovely, I'm always impressed with just how many instruments you can play and how great you make them all sound ^w^

Never expected the backing track of your lick in 91 instruments would be such effective background music for a regular video.
What a delicious instrument to listen to, beautiful video, you are amazing!🐧👌
Rebecca Sugar used the Omnichord a lot in writing music for Adventure Time and Steven Universe. I don't know if I am impressed that Sugar did that or unimpressed with how simple that instrument seems to be. Sugar does do some chord progressions not many musicians would think to do in their music so yeah.
Great vid! The cover was magical with this new addition 💕
I've always been enamored with the sound of this instrument since the first time I watched that episode of adventure time. Cant wait to hear it in more of your music! (You have a lovely singing voice by the way)
Congrats Luke! Nice video.
Yup, this song is going in my playlist
I never thought that i would get to hear you make a cover of metanodernity. Loved all of it.
Your voice is so chill and peaceful, I love it
That is an amazing cover! Your voice is so pretty, cool and smooth, was quite pleasantly surprised by it when I got to that part of the video! Hope your holiday season goes well Luke!
Man, so glad I found this channel some time ago. The cover and the introduction to this old retro music instrument were great. I learned and had a great time today!

I see you've been hiding one more instrument, your VOICE, dude stop being so talented!! 🥲💜
This was amazing! Keep up the amazing work.
I like the sound of the strum plates. Very sparkly sounding. I think you're right about the limitations of the omnichord as a solo instrument, though.
