I'm a trombonist, and I think this is one of the greatest applicants of my instrument in media lol. And yes, Debussy is a prestigious classical composer.

Ray saying "simply beautiful" and then completely whiffing the very next note got me way too good.

Watching Ray discover famous musicians and composers and lose it at their names is the best thing ever omg

In the years and years I've been watching Ray's content, I don't think I've ever seen him focus so hard. Trombonering is serious business.

I love his look of intense concentration on his face in the hard fast songs.

This brings back amazing memories from middle and high school. My band teacher always said "if you're not lightheaded after playing you're not playing loud enough" and from then on I nearly passed out at every football and basketball game. If songs are added in the future I'd love to see Ray play again

I've watched this stream three times, and saw a bunch of other people play this game, and I just now realised the reason the mouse is inverted by default: because pulling the slide towards you raises the pitch when you play an actual trombone. These absolute madlads

As someone who played the trombone all the way from middle school through college, I can confirm the lore in this game is what is told to every new trombone player when they start playing.

Gael truly outdid herself with the thumbnail 😂

47:08 Please rise for Twitch's National Anthem

God Save the King right after Oh Canada immediately made me think of Royal Canadian Kilted Yaksmen a la Ren & Stimpy

The random pug in a towel in the baboon section completes me

As a former trombonist, this brings back some memories... Edit: Stars and Stripes Forever brings back nightmares

The airhorns firing admist Hava Nagila has spiritually transported me to almost every bar mitzvah I've ever been to.

Can't wait until we get to the Twitch theme song segment. I am surprised they talked to the devs and slipped it in there as a gift to their beloved streamers!

As a residential Canadian I feel like Ray has represented Canada amazingly by getting an S rank on o Canada much love from your northern neighbors ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Watching this whilst recovering from a nasty cough was the most entertaining mistake of my life. Nearly hacked up a lung but it was worth it for the goofiness of the game and Ray hitting that perfect balance of being just good enough to make it interesting, and just bad enough to make it hilarious.

omg the thumbnail looks hella good, I was not expecting the thumbnail for this vod would look funny but also great at the same time lol

As a university level tromboner, Ray, just through this game, is better at the trombone than most people I played with in high school... Oh, and "muted" means you put a mute in your instrument. It's a closed funnel inside the horn that deafens the sound

7:49 Shout out to all the Canadian homies watching

After every trombone sesh, I always keep in mind what that one guy from Family Guy said as I’m wrapping up. “Always finish on the Bach, never finish on Debussy.”

The 8 bit song sounded like he was strangling an otomatone to death

I'm sure this is a one off but if there's more songs and Ray enjoys playing this, I'd absolutely love another segment. Ray missing notes and the general tone of the game make for funny moments.

This video was absolutely so good. The "sad" or "off" notes from the trombone never made me laugh so much in my life. Amazing video Ray.

As a former trombonist, I feel Ray’s pain on his arm moving back and forth between the 1st-7th positions Overall this feels like a legit trombone game, I’m impressed

Can't believe I spent time watching Ray play royalty free music on a virtual trombone, but here I am.

Rumor has it the rusty trombone is Ray’s favorite instrument to play Also, toot toot

When Ray said this was a a meme game, I severely underestimated just how much of a meme it would be. That being said, I must now find someone of sufficient skill in Osu or similar who also played this

As a former tromboner, I completely identify with "finally my noghtmare is over"

As a Canadian, after you played our anthem, a hockey game broke out in my living room, so thanks for that, they left a mess.

I really hope the devs will make other brass instruments into this masterpiece game Spencer needs Bassoon Champ real bad Just because every moment of this is pure gold haha even the last minute thumbnail is perfect

I majored in music for 3 years and have been playing flute for 14. This is the greatest video Ray has put out in YEARS

Laughed so hard at the English breakfast I nearly woke my son up. Thank you Ray 🇬🇧

In the last 2 months this has become my comfort video, doesn't matter how many times I watch it, it always gets me laughing.

Ray discovering famous classical composers and taking the absolute piss outta their names is the highlight for me xD

The scales at the beginning brought me back to marching band in high school I and concert band in middle school. I love this and I wanna pick up playing again

dunno if ray'll ever read this, but mute is this thing you put in brass instruments to give it a different sound. trumpet players sometimes quickly alternate between mute and no mute to give their music a kind of glissando

Last "Modern" usage I can think of for The Blue Danube Waltz is Nutty Professor (1 or 2 can't remember which) where Sherman Klump farts his way to a detonate button in space during a dream sequence

I had to play Entry of the Gladiators for my first chair recital in senior year high school band lmfao. But yes, a lot of these songs are common songs trombonists play. I have PTSD having to play Stars and Stripes Forever in marching band during memorial day parades.

Hey, Gael got the thumbnail out! What a gigachad!

Never have i played a game that threw me back to 6th grade band class. This is a gem

Man i wish there were more songs in this, I know Ray would hate it, but I could watch him play this all day haha. I SUCK at beat based games like this, it's always a huge pleasure to see a master at work!

This was a very entertaining video, way more fun than I expected anything involving trombones could be!

love rhythm games, love trombones. fifteen minutes in and this is the hardest i’ve laughed in ages. i’m so happy

The 8-bit sound while doing "take me out to the ball game" was killing me! Especially the way Ray described it!

As a band geek that played trombone in high school and college, I couldn't stop laughing at the music! This is both funny and nostalgic!

Ray got an A rank on Beethoven's masterpiece because Beethoven thought Ray did a fantastic job playing his instrument. He moved the slide and everything on the trombone.

I did NOT think I was gonna watch this whole video; but uh... I did! Thanks for the grade S entertainment, my man. You never cease to amaze with your comedic potential

I love hearing rays thoughts during the clown music section

Amazing thumbnail! You capture Ray trying to play a trombone, while shitting himself, and trying not to laugh. All at the same time!

The RIP tombstone save icon on the bottom left corner after God Save the King 😂😂😂 Too soon Trombone Champ, too soon

If Old Gray Mare sounds familiar, you may have been taught "I'm in the Lord's Army" as a child.

That Mozart trap mix slapped way harder than it should've

That’s it… this is the best game ever. I’ve never laughed so hard at a game this hard that’s intended to be funny and not take itself seriously. I absolutely love it.

FeelsStrongMan I was there for the beginning of the popularity of this game, Thanks Lirik and my wishlist from 2020 September 21

I watch pretty much everything Ray/Tina/mods post to KZfaq and this is the hardest I’ve laughed at a stream in a long time

Fun fact, Debussy’s lore card has “hot dogs” written in red

18:28 The pug in the baboon song had me questioning if I really saw it or not

i'm (almost) embarrassed at how many times ive watched this it's been scratching all of the itchies in my brain; i like to listen to music while i work, but i also like to listen to game commentary, but the game commentary has to be funny or interesting. this checked off all those boxes. love u ray

One of the greatest thumbnails for an equally great video.

JEW CREW!!🔯

I can’t believe they perfectly recreated me after having Taco Bell for the 38th time this week

The Pokemon streams really spoil me because i try to see chats reaction to everything and i be like "oh yeah, no chat" and i even try to tap right on the screen but then it just skips 10 seconds and i be like "dumbass!" Thanks for the content Ray!

Haven't watch you since AH. This got recommended and it was nice watching you again.

If I had to guess, the mouse is probably inverted by default to simulate playing the instrument. On screen, higher notes appear higher on the screen, that makes sense. On a trombone, to make higher notes yu pull the slide toward yourself.

All my middle school band memories just came flooding back in 😂😂

I love how even though this is a meme game it actually has some bangers in it (and that Ray got real focused in spots lol)

I want to know why "hotdogs" was lit up on Debussy's card.

"My nightmare is over. Woo." Dammit, now I have to buy it.

Jeez man during the Stars and Stripes I was fucking crying, so ridiculous 😂

"we all know the real national anthem of the united states is Every Time We Touch by Cascada" damn ray, don't give away the secret anthem like that

Being musically inclined and seeing someone who isn't slowly realise the absurdity of everything is making my night lmao

Wow they made that thumbnail fast. Looks great!

as someone who really likes rhythm games you have unironically caught my attention

I don’t know what’s more upsetting, this game or the fact that Ray is genuinely pretty good at it

after this performance i would kill a man to see ray play old rhythm heaven

I cannot believe a video game managed to capture the inherent anxiety of an instrument player with the gameplay. Perfection.

1:26:01 Was still one of my favorite parts.

My band played Stars and Stripes my junior year and when I say the trombones had it rough I mean it. I was so happy to be a woodwind

trombone champ teaches us that every song is better with air horn

I love coming back to this playthrough 😂 with today's announcement, I'm actually surprised it wasnt already on the switch

I’m an idiot, I had no idea “My Country Tis of Thee” and “God Save the King” were the same notes lmao. What a quintessentially American thing to do, we’re such assholes lol.

can we get another playthrough with Ray playing trombone while Tina sings the lyrics?

I don't know if Ray ever figured it out, but the Old Gray Mare song is the base for: "Great green globs of greasy, grimy gopher guts, Mutilated monkey meat. Dirty little birdie feet. Great green globs of greasy, grimy gopher guts, And me without my spoon!" I remember it from Honey We Shrunk Ourselves, it was also featured in Caddyshack and other pop culture, as well as it being a decently common playground song.

O Canada brought a tear to my Canadian eye. Beautiful.

Ray struggling during Stars And Stripes Forever gave me flashbacks to marching band

ray and rhythm games = perfect combination

The song at 1:00:00 . Was used in a baby Einstein video. With the puppets? And maybe ducks?

Played in 3 bands in junior high and I just have to say this is pretty accurate to my experience. And I played the flute!

Remember Ray. Finish on the Bach, and never finish on Debussy

Ray discovering Debussy is amazing

One of my favorite streams so far.

"I got it, let's get naked!-Patric Star" -Ray

This game is like when you take a shitpost too far and now you gotta commit to the bit. Absolutely glorious stuff

This might be the greatest video I've ever watched.

trying to watch this around midnight, the funny gas is leakin or something. I'm crying laughing

I was told by no one in particular that bassoon is better.

The bassoon maybe better than the trombone but the trumpet is the best! Oh and glasses likes feet.

You better get that secret ending, boi. I need more doots in my life
