I have had a simple riff in my head for the past 30-ish years, and whilst I keep playing about with it every so often I have never known what to do with it. Mainly because I had been looking at it as though it was there backing to a wider piece. Realisation hit me like a tonne of bricks after watching this. The riff is the melody that now requires a bass line and backing. All of a sudden I can see a route forward to complete it. With the way my spare time is it may take me another 30 years to get around to finishing it. But regardless, thank you for being the spark that I needed to hear it a different way.
I hope to hear your riff and all other supporting or complementing musical ideas. Don’t fear criticism my friend, complete your work so that we can enjoy and you can be validated and continue to produce from your musical mind.
@@aaronmichaud1 thank you for your kind words of encouragement. If I do manage to make something with it, and TH-cam still exists, I will likely upload it. But it really is likely to be years from now. Even though I've been playing with it in my mind most days since writing my comment above... Well, put it this way - in the story of the hare and the tortoise - I am the oft forgotten third race entrant, the snail.
sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know a way to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly forgot my account password. I appreciate any help you can offer me!
@Achilles Gabriel i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im trying it out now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
I watched this in awe and then watched the Mars perseverance landing, my day is just getting better! Thanks Kebu 👍🏻looking forward to your new album 🎹🎧
Amazing, that performance melody vibe brought back memories from my childhood. Listening to athmosperic synthesizer songs back then really made life seem happy.
Thanks for sharing Kebu! 👍 it’s always a joy to listen to beautiful music, specially during these dark times that we are living under. Keep up the faith and the great work that you do.
I can't tell enough how talented Kebu is. This song turned out great! I wish I would be able to create something like this sound. And he is so sweet, just such a nice guy ^^
I am blown away, it’s just amazing, fantastic, brilliant awesome, the sound just takes you aw@y from the outside world a places you in peace. Brilliant 🤩
Dave. When the pandemic is under control and gigs are possible, you will have the BEST of times at Kebu's concerts, they are such happy occasions and the love from his audience is wonderful. I hope to see you there!
fantastic sir, i listen to your music on youtube almost every day. my opinion is that you'r the king of the sinth music. can't get enough of those marvelous sound. thaks
Great job! I love watching a musician work and I love seeing music appear like an aural stream and noticing you hear when the music was right. Thank you.
Glad you liked it! I have to think about it. The challenge for me these days is not to come up with ideas - I have literally come up with hundreds of demos like these - but to turn them into full, proper compositions. Many times I find myself in the situation where I don't know how to proceed and no matter what I try nothing seems to work. But no worries, there's an album in the making which will be released next autumn.
I keep listening to this short tune and find myself humming along and I can't help but think it would really suit some vocals. Weirdly as I'm writing this it's making me think of Anders Enger Jensens style of music which is a good thing!
A great challenge, that shows us if needed, that Kebu is an amazing and talentuous musician, very 80's inspired, and who can make wrong notes too ;) - Thumb up!!
I'm impressed! even under pressure you managed to keep your attractive, beautiful music style. It's nice that you let it be known that the 4 minutes are not enough for a good piece of music. The Fantom is a High-end-synthesizer and can do more than just produce quick & dirty songs.
Bravo bro I love how you approach music making and don’t forget you only get time for one mistake in the music business lol also mad props to you for helping me out not one other celebrity would do what you did to help me out figuring out how to hookup and play my songs thank you bro sincerely your help has been priceless
Among the performance of the synthesizers of the various brands that came on the market from the 70s, 80s and onwards, the brand that I personally appreciate is Roland, and in each group or musical band that used it in their musical production, there was no lack of this brand and that sounds very pleasant to the ear.
Absolutely loved that - both the music and insight into your process. Just making me even more hungry for a new album as I am wearing out my music players with perplexagon and to jupiter and back!
Thanks Kebu! Excellent job, it’s a great synth also great to see you work with it, better song in 4 mins than I’d could do in 4 wee...err...4 mon...4 yea......let’s face it never 😊
I'd love to say you've accomplished more in four minutes than many artists do during their careers. ... But, I have a feeling you've been doing your music theory homework for a while now.
Despite you've overtimed. You've made the greatest song from all musicians challenged for this task. It sounds a bit like something from Electric youth.
@@innosanto Yes JMJ definitely got a different sounds and composition , but its the same electronic music style. This piece by Kebu sounds like what JMJ would have if he did another Magnetic Fields album.
I tried the 444 challenge today on my 'slightly' cheaper Yamaha MOXF6, using 4 sounds and ran out of time on the first take. Managed 3 sounds. Came up with some nice chords, then frustratingly forgot them when I hit record and ended up with something that sounded nothing like the original chords. Not as easy as it looks. Kebu makes it look easy. This video, along with his others is the perfect example of the synergy between man and machine.
Nice! 4 minutes is tough to tailor both harmony and a nice melody, even if you know Roland Fantom completely! I don’t own Roland Fantom, I mostly use Omnisphere. Great work on the creativity!

I loved how he admitted to his struggles during the challenge. It makes me feel more human :) Great job! - New Subscriber
Talent is an understatement describing this guy!
That's undermining tbh. It takes talent to start yes, but it takes great skill and sacrifice to evolve into a grand musician.
@@AndrewLeSynt the challenge wasn’t to compose something special.

Fantastic!! Brilliant, Kebu!!
That was absolutely brilliant. Love the 80s feeling
Nice! We love you Kebu!
Yup thats what you get when you're playing with 106, 101 and JP 8 models hahaha.

Absolutely brilliant, I was imagining this as the end credits theme to an 80's movie. Kebu you nailed the challenge, well done. 👍
Amazing, that performance melody vibe brought back memories from my childhood. Listening to athmosperic synthesizer songs back then really made life seem happy.
You did brilliantly, Kebu! I love your choice of synth sounds and the tune, it’s excellent!
Fantastic Kebu. Always an inspiration to see you at work 👍
I've said it a million times before but I'll say it again - you're an absolute legend!!!
A superb example of not overthinking it and nailing it.
4 minutes and 5 seconds of magic.......what else would we expect....Brilliant
Just had a great moment. Sweet live creation. Awesome machine too.
The musical magician does it again. Such beautiful rich sounds, brilliant! 👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧

You’re my master! Kebu! Regards from Ireland!
I absolutely love this guy’s playing. I also saw Dr Mix’s acceptance to this challenge. Both are great talented synth players. This was awesome!
Nicely composed, Kebu. I enjoyed watching this video. Congratulations and thumbs up! :-)
You sir are a musical genius!! I will be listening to your music until the day I die. 👍👍😄
You humility is endearing. Even experts need more than one take. Gives me confidence to try :-)
Kebu please, you should release this tune officially!! 80's melody and those synths sound amazing... it's hypnotizing my ears.
Glad you liked it! I have to think about it. The challenge for me these days is not to come up with ideas - I have literally come up with hundreds of demos like these - but to turn them into full, proper compositions.

This is why Kebu is a Synth God. Did anyone notice the moving camera shots?
Honestly was listening not watching (;
that is a slider that's just going back and forth automatically
Here again...😋
Kebu is the man!
That was intense!!! Great song and I cheered loudly right after you finished!
I appreciate your genuineness and your music moves and inspires me.
A great challenge, that shows us if needed, that Kebu is an amazing and talentuous musician, very 80's inspired, and who can make wrong notes too ;) - Thumb up!!
good evening dear kebu
thank you for playing these very beautiful melodies.
have a nice evening take care see you soon
Kebu you are the best....We all want you here in Brazil some day!!!
Thank you! Would love to perform in Brazil one day.
Great 80s' melody, Kebu! You inspired me to dig deeper into the synthwave.
Love your organic sounds. Awesome stab at this 444 challenge. Thanks Kebu.
Awesomely cool Kebu beautifully done.!!!God bless you and your family.!!!👍😎💓♾️
Great work Kebu! I just love listening to the sound of that synth. Divine! 👍
Awesome kebu! Love your type of music creation! The sounds are a great source to beginning a music!

Hi Kebu that was great 👍 you got there in the end 🇬🇧❤️👍David
Love the vibe, pure 80's!! Love the T-Shirt also!
these sounds absolutely amazing what ever you do i hear sound of 80s in so many ways
This is amazing, hands down best one I’ve seen! Great job!

That was awesome brother. Really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing and have an amazing day!
Listened to this hundreds of times, So peaceful melody. Great success 4x4x4 Sebastian.👍👍👍 Was this an inspiration for "HOPE"
Thanks! No, Hope was composed already in 2019.
@@kebu
Some fragments sounded to me little bit alike.🥰
brilliant! you made it very real and I appreciated that even if you went over time
I've never seen that done before. Love seeing a Master at work
In your mind you took 1 minute to create your music... you've succeeded the challenge. Bravo !

what un honour to see this and to hit the first comments..nice sounds and to see how you do the magic...hyvä suoritus ja kiva nähdä ja kuulla.
Great video and great t-shirt. Thanks, man!
I put this piece 🧩 on,closed my eyes,& I was
instantly transported 2 7th Heaven!!What a
Joyous trip!!😌👍
You are a absolut genious, OMG, #1 fan here!
tout simplement magique.Merci Mr Kebu
Absolutely loved that - both the music and insight into your process. Just making me even more hungry for a new album as I am wearing out my music players with perplexagon and to jupiter and back!
This was a very difficult challenge indeed! I usually take several hours, if not days, to come up with new stuff!
I admire your efficiency and talent!
Thanks Kebu! Excellent job, it’s a great synth also great to see you work with it, better song in 4 mins than I’d could do in 4 wee...err...4 mon...4 yea......let’s face it never 😊
Absolutely amazing. All your sounds really reset my mind
Счастья,здоровья тебе Кебу и обязательно дотянутся до звезд!!!
great job kebu, thats quite amazing. i still play deep blue and your rendition of le parc in my car very frequently
Hey Sebastian, you are just awesome and outstanding, allways a great pleasure to see you and listen to your music ☺️☺️☺️
Absolutely outstanding Kebu! You're a legend :-D
Genius. This video makes me want to run out and acquire a Fantom 8.
Молодец, Kebu!
You are the best! Congratulations ! Just make more amazing song as you do.
Thankyou for the video Kebu!!!!!! Great work, amazing!!!!!
какая потрясающая музыка. аж слеза наворачивается.
That was excellent mate. Great synth and superb choice of patches.
That sounds amazing! And you make it look so easy when in fact it takes years to be able to do this effortlessly like you do.
Thanks for this video. I enjoyed watching how you would go about making music, especially under time constraints like this 👍
I'd love to say you've accomplished more in four minutes than many artists do during their careers. ... But, I have a feeling you've been doing your music theory homework for a while now.
Супер, мечтаю побывать на Вашем выступлении!
Талантище! :)
This was brilliant and beautiful KEBU!
You are brilliant Kebu, thanks from me here in New Zealand.
Great creation, Kebu. There are not many people that could do what you did with this challenge in the space of 4 minutes! Will Ortiz
Despite you've overtimed. You've made the greatest song from all musicians challenged for this task. It sounds a bit like something from Electric youth.
less than 10 minutes for such a nice song... amazing
That is nice, well done. Such a great musician. When lockdown is over I'm going to make a point of going to see you in concert.
Impressive! Would love to hear this on your next album!
Absolutely amazing, I do like chase, pulsar and much more.
Kebu, you are a wonderful musician!
Как рождается на яву великолепная музыка от kebu!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This is amazing! It sounds almost like what JMJ would've made in late 70s to early 80s, but much more refined sounds.
No. JMJ completely different sounds and composition.

Thanks KEBU!
Never disappoints.
Hell yeah
More vids like this Kebu!
I can listen to this song forever and ever and ever...
you could see his being cramped by 4 minutes and only one keyboard. he's so down to earth too.
I love the playful creatively, a trait of genius.
Nice! 4 minutes is tough to tailor both harmony and a nice melody, even if you know Roland Fantom completely! I don’t own Roland Fantom, I mostly use Omnisphere. Great work on the creativity!
Love you Kebu, from Romania ❤️
