Title: Most Epic Kid Ever
Post by: {AP} on June 23, 2010, 10:04:01 pm
In the first video, this girl is only 10 years old. Listen through it all. Seriously.
Every single part is recreated from scratch and played there. Even the drums.



In this one, she's 11.


Just... wow. x.x

This girl is only 13 now too so she has a long road of epic ahead of her.
/me ish seriously jealous...

I like the first one a lot!  It's such an awesome song and she does it so well. :)

On a side note, I'M not into 1970s stuff really, and neither in regular rock music, and that girl made me discover a "new" song that I like (and favorited). The first one, specifically :P

If you like Carry on my Wayward Son, then you'd like Point of No Return, also by Kansas. ;D

Mhmm I need to check that one out too :)

Btw I think the Pirate Of The Carribean one is my 2nd favorite after the Carry On Wayward son:



I wish there were direct keyboard mp3 recording of that stuff with better sound quality. It's really awesome.

I'm not a big fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean song but she does make it sound pretty good.

Nice. Good as always!

She is very talented. The age aspect though, considering that she is from Japan (as it says on her YouTube profile) isn't that shocking because I've heard 3rd and 4th grade concert bands that blow RMHS's Rocky Mountain Winds (the top band) out of the water. I have to give it to her thought that she can control three different sounds at once.

Just so some people don't mistake her to produce it all at once there is a pre-recorded track that does some of the percussion stuff (I'm about 95% sure about that) that she stays in tempo with.

Again though, she is really good :)

Hm, it was my understanding that the pedals controlled the percussion though you may still be right. The whole 'electone' thing confuses me. =P

Ya, the pedal controls some of it (I think it is usually a bass-y beat) but for some of the other I'm pretty sure she has a track that she goes along with. I just couldn't find a source of where some of it was coming from because her hands were doing different stuff and then her foot something else.

I think those keyboards lets you memorize some note patterns for use later, but I'm not sure. Bfr, a former Omnimaga staff, had such feature on his keyboard when he did music. The girl probably pre-recorded some parts, or recorded them progressively during the song, so she doesn't have to play as much stuff at once during playing, and can stop some tracks from playing when she wants.

Ya, I thought about that too. Could be, I'd have to rewatch them to be sure though. It should be pretty easy to tell.
