Oscar Peterson beat
Фильм және анимация
This re-edit of Oscar Peterson's work is a testament to the timeless relevance of his music and its ability to resonate with contemporary audiences. Drawing inspiration from Peterson's profound understanding of music's essence, this video represents a fusion of classical jazz with modern lo-fi beats, embodying the essence of hip-hop's foundational spirit of renewal and reinterpretation. It's a showcase of how old masterpieces can be reimagined to capture their original mood and vibe, yet presented in a way that feels fresh and relevant today.
Viewers have appreciated the unexpected glimpse into Peterson's foray into electronic music, highlighting the seamless blend of traditional and modern elements. The use of modular synthesizers and electronic arrangements prompts a thought-provoking question about the potential creativity of classical composers if they had access to today's technology. Comments praise the video for its emotional impact, innovative approach, and the notion that Peterson himself would have been excited by such a creative tribute.
This re-edit is more than just a video; it's a philosophical statement about music's evolutionary journey, connecting past and present through the universal language of sound. It's an invitation to explore the roots of hip-hop and the transformative power of music, celebrating the innovative spirit that drives artists to explore new horizons while staying true to the soulful essence of their influences.

Never would have imagined Oscar Peterson on a synth. His style seemed so perfected for the acoustic piano. But it makes sense for a true master to adapt and create.
He was born in 1925. Amazing clip! Thanks for sharing.
That melody is sublime. Its nostalgic and instantly pulls you in.

Oscar lived near me, like just blocks away in my neighbourhood in the suburbs when I was younger, but I never saw him out and about even to cut his lawn. I knew where he lived but I didn't want to bother him. I knew he had a home studio with lots of gear, I'm a musician so I was into that stuff, I had my own studio also back then, still do now. I really wanted to go see his studio, too bad I never did!

It’s true that pioneers like Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder, and Michael Jackson were ahead of their time, partly because they had access to groundbreaking equipment like modular synths, which were expensive and exclusive back then. This access undoubtedly contributed to the iconic status of many of their hits. Today, the landscape has dramatically changed. The democratization of music technology means that almost anyone can access a vast array of synthesizers right on their phone. It’s a shift that has made music production more accessible and inclusive, which is incredibly exciting

Thank you so much for uploading this! Special glimpse of OP in a very different environment. I knew he dabbled with electronic music but until this point in my life never saw it with my own eyes. There's an element of an old dog teaching himself new tricks!!! He didn't do it by halves though, eh? Look at all the modular stuff going on too... makes you wonder what would Mozart and Beethoven have done if they managed to "Bill and Ted" it into the future for a few weeks....
omg the ending is literally lofi-beats
Yeah, this is epic! No better person to be sitting behind that equipment than Oscar.

The way Oscar embraced modern technology back then was astonishing, considering he was an old-timey jazz guy. He was a big fan of the Atari ST., which is usually associated with EDM.
