Frustrated by not being able to sing two notes at the same time, musical inventor Beardyman built a machine to allow him to create loops and layers from just the sounds he makes with his voice. Given that he can effortlessly conjure the sound of everything from crying babies to buzzing flies, not to mention mimic pretty much any musical instrument imaginable, that's a lot of different sounds. Sit back and let the wall of sound of this dazzling performance wash over you.

i don't think the audience was garbage at all, they were just TED attendees. It takes critical mass to get a crowd on their feet, and this wasn't that crowd, not to say that in a different setting they wouldn't be dancing in the aisles, but it was a talk. the applause at the end shows all the energy and fascination they were holding in the whole time.

I think it actually is :) Given that it's a conference, not a concert hall and keeping in mind that he's not actually performing, but presenting. When you'll be able to see the difference, I'm pretty sure you will agree with what I'm saying here. Honestly dude, what place to present an idea or product is better than TEDTalks ? I mean, of course, maybe it doesn't have THAT many views here on youtube (all though I would say it kinda does, innit ?), it's more about the people attending those conferences and the AFTER the concerence word of mouth spreading into the real world. I think this is the optimal forum where this creative genius should present his idea, product and demonstrate how it works through a performance. Hey, only my opinion. Cheers!

I mean, when you break a sample (a recording) of anything down, such as the human voice, you just have a basic waveform. So essentially yeah, your playing a synth with your voice.

As a fan of experimental music, I love the production and shows he puts on, but the message of the voice's possibilities is a bit lost after he straps on half a ton of electronics and cycles the signal through looping machines.

ok, 5 years without reply so I apologise for the notification. The main difference here is that he can create all these soundscapes spontaneously. It's not the creation of 3 months of production in a studio. Beardyman can put out in a random KZfaq jam session what some artists struggle for months with in composition and production.

@@raerth yes, he can do it quickly. But to claim it is nothing but voice is a fallacy. The electronic manipulation involved makes it so this isn't voice at all. Yes, the original tone is created with voice, but then it is twisted, wadded, and crumpled to make it what it is...meaning it is nothing more than computer generated sounds.

@@cleatussfmo7437 He doesn't claim it is nothing but his voice. He claims that he uses no samples other than what he inputs using his voice. There is a distinction there. If you want to see Beardyman using only his voice, here's a good example: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iZ13es581ai2XZs.html

This is the best exhibition of the Beardytron's capabilities he has demonstrated yet!! Flippin incredible, Beardyman is a pioneer and I think will be looked back at as the mozart in his niche of live electronic music production.

Beardymans system is empty of sounds. people you mentioned have enough "gimmick" and need more talent. this is audio art and design. won't help them.

he's literally speaking into a sampler/vocoder and just adding effects to his voice that can be found on a simple ipad or any vocoder in existence, love; this is no audio art and design and those artists have been doing this and innovative sampling techniques since the 70s. don't diss the DJs, artists and engineers of the last 40-50 years because you're not sure whats going on
