Cool

Sick drop for my spotify

Aaaand just like that, it's on my running playlist! You wanted a banger and you made one! :D

But we want "We flew a kite in public place.....🎼🎶".

Let's make this Christmas number 1!

...and if you gaze into the beardyman, the beardyman gazes also into you

Wait a second....

Usually you pay someone to post this with their accounts, but i like your style.

The real beardyman was not in this video, not nearly enough curse words for it to be him

hi Jay!

Tom: "Aveolar or bilabial?"

@@dieyoung linguolabial

@@tristansoendergaard7867 ​ @dieyoung these are not real words I don't care what wikipedia says

"i will never use cos in real life"

No better person than a linguist to ask these to!

He's also Jay Foreman's brother. Get your head around that.

@@vacuumssuck26 Are you serious?🤯🤯

I mean, with such a gigachad chin, it would be a waste to hide it under a beard

@@vacuumssuck26 oh really hm

Oh, that explains a lot

I love ittttttt

Hm......I beatbox, I used to be in high school Varsity Choir, and I know English and progressively less in 3 other languages. I think I can do this! xD :P

@@handlemonium Now just learn to produce and sound design

Tom Scott is a linguist?

@@guisampaio2008 Indeed he is! Not by trade, necessarily (though he does have a series on the subject), but at least by training.

Howdy-Hey!

MC HYPERSCOTT CAN'T HURT YOU!

howdy hey, hipyo

Surprising appearance

Making Tom Scott a custom keyboard?

Does that mean the next video is Tom throwing himself off a cliff? (abseiling or base jumping)

@@chrisanderson8889 no, a drumset is throwing a cliff off of tom

That's some cool character arc.

@@lonesome3958 that’s like 3 cuils away from the original video.

He's not a physicist, though

I absolutely love those two suggestions together and now I desperately need a hyperpop song about them

"The bridge that doesn't want to be a bridge" would've been even more classic Tom Scott. xD

"I'm on a bridge in Leeds, quantum entangled with a gazebo"

@@HappyBeezerStudios Sounds like a romcom I'd watch.

Feedback, imperfections.... 🎶

yup

That was vital.

His reaction to every noise is priceless.

@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 I can see a Surge of synthesis puns coming from this.

In fairness, his thing, as observed taking place live, would seem to be little shy of sorcery.

For real? I was wondering what was going on. I was thinking, "I've never seen Beardyman in the flesh, but I KNOW YOU." Talented brothers. I always enjoy Map Men 8)

Say whaaaaaaaaaaaa

They sound similar too!

came here to say that!

And they have the same ability to make deep knowledge accessible through goofy absurdity

i love you

three words

"hyper-scott"

Just seeing the video title absolutely FLOORED me

didn't expect to hear "pc music" in a tom scott vid

I think that is the whole purpose of this channel. And I love it.

I don't understand a thing but I'm also here for it.

@@Artaxo A plosive is a sound that's made by building pressure. T, D, P, B, K, and hard G are all plosive noises. Fricatives are like a danish meatball.

@@Artaxo plosive is like a p, mini explosion. Fricative is like a v, something vibrating.

@@ashtar3876 or in this case, a P, followed by a F, or Pf. Say Pf. Now say it repeatedly in quick succession. It's a mini drum beat. Now try K (Not Kay, but Kuh - as in kicking k) Now do Pf K, Pf K. Basic beatbox beat in a few mins.

It's the standard in the UK for formatting subtitles -- because the EU/UK had Teletext (I believe Tom also has a video on that) instead of the crappy system of putting subtitles into invisible lines on the TV transmission, and Teletext supported 16 colors for text, you could make subtitles like this.

"Oh, look at me I bought a Lamborghini- buy some damn subtitles!"

I can confirm this too, despite me not having any auditory processing disorder or anything of that nature, makes it easier to describe to my friends roughly what was occurring in the video.

@@thebaker8637 How is TV broadcasting standard relevant to KZfaq?

@@jacquelineliu2641 very. UK laws apply to KZfaq too. For example you cannot do a promotion without stating it or you will be done by the government.

That "4screened-instrument" is called "Beardytron"

@242turbo maybe learning to ride a bike.

I'd say he's more in time

Bard extraordinaria

and precisely on schedule

Well a wizard is never late...

It made me let go of my papers!

I dropped my papers hearing this.

My papers are shivering right now

My papers are on the floor 🥶

what a time to be alive!

by your description it's more like tomcore, as using tom Scott samples doesn't need be pop

we’re just inventing ytpmvs again

The crazy thing is that normally Beardyman does work in real time, this is actually slow for him.

God isn’t modern music crap these days give me the days of the 60’s and 70’s the best years for music

@@CricketEngland 5/10 bait

@@CockatooDude ?

@@CricketEngland Oh you're serious. Well in that case there are still a plethora of bands out there who make music in classic styles. It's just a matter of looking around on Soundcloud and Bandcamp for a while.

I know, right?? I kind of understand what he's doing but this would take years of practice, building up and buying equipment and plugins. I would not have the patience (or money) for that, let alone the talent this guy has!

As a musician with a little more than a basic level of musical knowledge, I could appreciate and understand the fundamental stuff. But only just enough to keep up with the development of the track. I haven't actually played anything in a few years, I just have the knowledge that I learned from that time.

As a person with a bad ear and no music experience at all this is magic, just simple magic. I don’t remember who said it but there is a quote “sufficiently advanced technology will be like magic” or something and now I understand what that means. Beardyman just touches some buttons and suddenly there is rhythm and harmony, it’s mind boggling.

You might wanna look into Beatbox Looping if you find this cool!

@@squillz8310 I used to play the piano when I was very young, but I feel like my electrical engineering knowledge helped my more than my music theory knowledge.

I know what these words mean but hearing them so quickly one after another still made my head spin.

For the people who aren't music-savvy: it means that it's a note that slowly moves up and down along the beat, with some feedback on each end.

"In English, please?"

@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 noise go wawawawa very fast through filter :)

You haven't seen him vaping...

@@lassehauerwaas3078 There is aahaah... uhh...uhhh......uhhhhhh....uhhhh....unnhhh...... It was funny watching him choke on that vape.

It kinda reminds me of outtakes of the park bench videos

You clearly have not seen Technical Difficulties old videos from 2010 Or citation needed Try them very nice

@@JSR108 ahhh yes Tom “I’m going to strike out Gary” Scott

Reminds me of that old Retro Encabulator video.

What does he mean by sweeping a resonant low pass filter?

@@rvbxn04 Filter - electronic circuit that allows sound shaping by only allowing certain frequencies to pass through. All EQs are filters. Low pass filter - a type of filter, very common in synthesisers, that only allows the low frequencies to pass through, cutting off the higher frequencies Resonance - applying a boost in the signal at the frequency above which the frequencies cannot pass, known as the 'cut off frequency’, leading to the creation of new and interesting harmonics in the sound. Resonant filter - a type of filter that allows individual control of both the cut off frequency and the resonance, allowing you to move the cut off frequency around change the amount of resonance you add to the sound. Filter sweep - the manual or automated movement of the cut off frequency from low to high or high to low. Think the sound of a wah wah pedal.

@@danpreston564 ayy thank you for the Explantation

lmao thisthisTHIS

Literally

The pain. While people just buy premade rise effects and call it music. Ugh.

LITERALLY

Good lawd… speaking truth haha… I just got the push 2 w/the full Live suite and this is super inspiring for sure!

"Tom Scott learns to do death growls" would be awesome.

omg yes i need to see that :D

U should suggest that on the Tom Scott Website. Would love to see that

omg, yes!!!

I really hope it includes a remix of We Flew a Kite in a Public Place

YES

​ @Lainey Larsen It should include "If Educational Videos Were Filmed Like Music Videos"

and on the other hand meaningful insight about a nice trick I'm sure to forget when I need it...

The techno babel jargon was the part that made sense for me. Much better than a linear sine sweep.

Brooooo. That’s what lfo stands for?

I mean. So that’s what LFO stands for. Cuz, that’s what an LFO is. I just never thought about it being the short form for something.

Or I did. But, was too lazy to google it.

It isn't, but it really should be.

It is now!

Thanks so much for the suggestion! It was highly entertaining and interesting.

I'm mostly intrigued by the fact that youtube has the option of coloured subtitles? I have *never* seen those before-

For example... *_(snort)_*

@@montrovy Tom Scott's videos' subtitles are the golden standard on KZfaq and I've seen no other videos with up to par level subtitles

Thanks so much! Great rec

"I can do that! That's a standard sweep through IPA vowel chart. I can do that." "♪Absolutely♪"

Tbf most drum sounds can be described in lingustic terms. Beatboxing is like linguistics in practice without having to know linguistics

lyrical meter is also a linguistic thing, although it's not as universally applicable

The science stuff you can figure out how it works. This is just wizardry that has no other logical explanation.

It helps that Tom is fully willing to believe the world is magical, but unwilling to believe that his own voice could be. I'm sure many of us can relate to that.

Science is exact knowledge, this, this is creativity. Enough to break his brain and my

Well now I'm rewatching this with captions on!

It's telling me there are no captions right now. Weird.

As someone with knowledge of both linguistics and music production, it's impressively accurate and I have great respect for all the work that's gone into this!

I can confirm that the captions are accurate

i didn't even know that was possible!!!!!

"Adds low harmonic" "Plays hi-hat beat" Theyre always so good and descriptive

give beatboxing a try. you never know it might become your thing the same as it became mine after i saw beardy

Beatboxing became my thing! It could be yours too!

It runs in the family.

15:52 uncanny!

made me think about throwing shade tbh

It's got nothing to do with weather, it's because of the slang meaning of "shade". Shade is defined by Urban Dictionary as 'acting in a casual or disrespectful manner towards someone/dissing a friend'.

Casting an overbearing shadow. One cannot shine in the limelight if they are obscured.

Also renowned for being Jay Foreman's brother!

@@edderiofer OMG WHAAAAAAAT?!

@@edderiofer You know, I can actually really see that now that you've mentioned it. There's a definite resemblance.

@@Lilly-Gorney Their biggest resemblance is their voice, imho. They also both have perfect pitch and are gifted as hell with anything relating to music

I was wondering if they were related

The DAW is Ableton but I don't know what the other ones are.

I bet he still mimes a signature when he's asking for the bill after a meal though 😂

@@pkpckls Why? it's ages since you needed a signature to pay with card, ever since they brought in chip and pin.

@@randomwerewolf1099 It depends on where you are. Most sit-down restaurants I've been to lately in the U.S. still require a signature. When I was in Germany a few months ago, they required me to give my signature at the grocery store when I used card.

Tom Scott: musical instrument

You be forgetting Ol Captn Tom the Pirate, matey! yarrr.....

Addendum: Musical Instrument, Pilot (blind or otherwise), Pirate Captain, and Politician (on a technicality).

Abe Lincoln, John Glenn, Dalai Lama, Albert Einstein, Robert Heinlein, Carl Sagan, JS Bach, Don Henley, Harry Krishna, Ram Dass, MLKjr, QE II, FDR, Adyashanti, The Pope, Fred Flintstone? Those are my guesses for who said it

Science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke: "Sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." Such technology is known as Clarkian technology.

The true magic is the artist's understanding of music and rhythm and being able to use technology to make it into a song, but there's a lot of factors that makes the artist that unique that makes music just art.

@@41-Haiku beat me to it

@@2miligrams factor in that beardyman created the system he's using here himself, pure genius

Because he's doing things he's not used to doing. Just because you're used to performing in one way, doesn't mean you're used to performing in other ways.

Toms normal videos are heavily scripted and shot a dozen times, but these plus videos are very close to live with very little script control. Not being in control of the action is what usually seems to throw Tom off.

it makes it so much more raw and real and I love that part. properly edited videos without any hiccups tend to feel so clinical and unreal. these are natural and give me that "hey, _I_ could do that too" kind of inspiration.

If you watch the video on Beardyman’s channel Tom actually knows Hyperpop

Son of the internet

@@Giurigi123 But also father of the internet

It's not a true beardyman set unless it drifts towards dnb :D

love how you get 19:19 - ambient liquid dnb break 19:33 - melodic chord chops that scream HYPERPOPPP that was a neat transition in the video editing there too :o also i'd say the tempo of 158 saves the hyperpop vibe, compared to dnb which is (usually) a tad bit higher

I don't know what those words mean but I'm inclined to agree with you.

That's become a theme of this channel.

He's actually jay foreman's brother

A+ yes, thank you for the lyrics!

This sounds like a hymnal for a new religion

@@Dong_Harvey It really does, right?

I love how it makes no sense at all.

Even though they were just making up random lyrics from the back of other lyrics, I feel like it actually does somehow make sense. It feels like it’s about finding someone that lets you speak your mind freely after being alienated by the world for so long

Exactly what I was thinking
