- here's the 1st session of shpongle in the studio with Benji Vaughan (younger brother, prometheus) at the echo chamber recording the homage to the work of the scientists at CERN and their attempts to unearth the THE GOD PARTICLE
more sessions will follow as they assemble this 16 minute experiment
I hope raj lives forever 👽✌️🕉️
He will in his work
I second this
Nothing lasts but nothing is lost
He will don’t worry we all do
The music is a reflection of the artists, such is reflected in their seeking enlightenment. Those who seek the truth and are willing to flow with the ever accelerating currents in this ocean of existence will have such wisdoms reflected in their passions.
Shpongle is truly the outcome of wisdom seekers gathered with the intent of expressing the essence and it's many layers and patterns- the result of pure love poured into such intention is the permeating peace and understanding that is revealed.
3 dislikes,,, really? someone needs to be Shpongled
These guys are the holy trinity of trance.
Simon and Benji are geniuses with computers and sounds... and Raja talking could have inspired Einstein and Leonardo da Vince, had he lived in those days.
Nah not true .. they are the cliche of the Psy scene..go search labels that started same time as them in South Africa and abroad .
I really wish i could meet these guys and learn from them. They are truly the godfathers of Psychadelic music.
Those curious.
The vst plugin shown at 2.30 is Automaton by Damage audio.
legend...thanks!!!
You are a life saver!! I’ve been hunting down Simon’s plug ins.. and this was one of them. Would you know if this was also what he used to distort Raj’s voice? As of today, His Facebook shows a video of them behind the scenes and Raj talking about a hippy moving in next door (lol) and it seems to look like this... but at the same time not.
@@RJ-pv4sc I read in the comments that it's a UAD plugin but I also couldnt find which one. I'm very interested in your hunt, what other plugins have you found so far?
@@thaDjMauz Well we know the trippy one is Audio Damage’s Automaton. Works amazing to get that EP’s (God Particle) sound as well as some sounds we later hear in Museum of Consciousness.
I have also found... being digital (Simon uses like mainly analogs) Izotrope Stutter 2 has insane effects close to many of the synth and glitch effects they’ve used in many albums.
So for a quick list:
Audio damage - Automaton
Izotrope - Stutter 2
Also get a great compressor. The quality of Shpongle is revered because they mix so well. Compressors, EQ and mixing in -6DB will do wonders on your percussive and instrumentation’s. Like you can even run a test by using one of their best mixed tracks (anything off Nothing Lasts or Tales of Inexpressible) and you’ll see how if you up their tracks DB it’ll sound.... dramatically different.
But yes, for those crazy effects in the God particle That’s all I know. Most of Simon’s tools and Magic’s are and probably will forever be a mystery.
These two obviously have a wonderful sense of humour about it all, so cool to see them both in the studio.
God element is Gd (Gadolinium), in case you did not know. Sergey Kuryokhin did spell it out ih his famous "Lecture about Bromine" ))))))
the flute sound is the best thing i've heard, blew me away completely
I tripped nuts to this guys music as a teen. Thanks for liking and reminding me of this video!
Hah, some people still think this is just music.
I was a big fan of Quintessence in the early seventies and Raja's flute playing was a key ingredient to that sound. Personally I prefer the stuff he did then but he has become a truly remarkable being over the years, as I've just found out by listening to a few of his monologues,so obviously he's happier now doing what he's doing.
More. We need more.
I wish I could just hang out in the studio with those guys, and watch them work. Haha.
Ohhhh. the treated Raja-flute around 6.30... this will be the best shpongle-thingie, like ever... with Benji in the band as well... massive....
@Clusterfrog It's Cellular Automata Sequencer, a software that apply to sounds the same approach of artificial life simulator, like some cells that evolve generation after generation. For other synth with biological algorithms I advise you also Axon (Audio Damage), a drum synth with neural sequencer, and Synplant, that creates crazy sounds with genetic modification of some seeds that grow into synth patches. Enjoy ;)
I borrowed this clip for my blog article "Angels & Demons: We Are All God's Particles" (The Yummish Faith blog.) Thanks!
How fun would it be to hang out with those guys and just watch them create their art. I recently heard that they were breaking up and that their 2 sold out shows at Red Rocks were to be the last performances..😢 Dear Simon and Raja, please grant this dying man's (for aren't we all heading towards death the moment we are born) last wish and put me on the guest list.
Can’t believe this video is 10 yrs old
Paradise!!
That dream about the giraffe sounds like a night mare. When I was a child I had dreams about giraffes liquefying and they were horrific nightmares, I had to be sent into a two year therapy with Anneliese Pestel. I called her up on the phone when I was 5 and said to her: "Can you make my nightmares go away?". I was suffering. The thing with me is I don't need shrooms to see things. And what I see often scares me. I like your music, it is what I have always known already in my own phantasy.
so rad, can't wait to hear it in it's entirety
I wish I had friends who would wanna make music with me.
Amæthron same
where you from! i always looking for music buddies :) i from england
Your vibe attracts your tribe. They’ll come and it’ll happen. But you also have to take the first step.
@@myriadplanes lol must have missed the notification of your comment. I'm from Germany actually 😊
@@RJ-pv4sc the only way to have contact to people on the same wave as me right now is really only by internet. And yea I actually "met" someone online who already recorded some bongos for me 😍 turned out fantastic.
Thank you Benji..
Thanks for this video. It gave me an idea for topic for my blog when I was mired in the depths of writer's block. Thank you for the inspiration!
Where's the god particle? I think it's downstairs isn't it? :D
Fantastic
Music is Sound. Sound is Music.
Namaste!
That is so funny to see, how you create some sounds, like with the spinning COIN (2:12) - that reminds me to DM (Behind a Wheel) . I hope to see you again in Ozora! LIVE LONG AND PROSPER \\\//
Well done Video, nice trippy graphics, and the END, hehe ...FADE OUT...to fade in ...
collective creative genius
Where the hell is part 2?!?! 0__0
Incidentally, I'm of opinion that those people that are high will find a salvation for this otherwise decaying human race. Maybe I will move to Colorado.
very nice idea. a concept with notes.
Shpongle LIVES! P_L_U_R_
@kords1 When i grew up listening to music the bands were not satisfied completely unless they were big in America? Especially when they when they started losing sales n America I remember KISS practically lost America by 1980,'' But australia in 1980 was into KISS like America was in the 70s They got huge down under..By 1980 reading a hit parader on kiss was like they were dated and on there way out..They made a good comeback in 84...To me psytrance sound has not grown since the 90s? Stagnant
A bomb that song is!
- Yoda
Sometimes i think these guys (in psytrance) have proved they don't need america for their style music..
Soundtrack to the Big Bang they are creating here.... they owe royalties to the gnomes since The 4th Dimension is where they bring their music back from....
@2:19 reminds me of the intro to Money and @2:54 reminds me of On The Run
I think Shpongle is the second coming of Pink Floyd, but even better
Daddy of all
i love it .if you need help ,i volunteer anytime for shpongelizing....just don t know if i mathematicaly will reach the level....
Do you know the plug ins they use to distort Raja’s voice?
you guys are so much fun!
The plug-in you might be inquiring about is called Automaton and is produced by Audio Damage.
@captainadmiral1 Sorry the cellular sequencer is Audio Damage Automaton
I got to meet you all at Camp Bisco and it was life changing... Whose going to #campbisco this year??
B4L
Amazing!
Hey cool, I've got that same keyboard (the novation, not the roland) but in 61 keys. It's interesting to see how they made the sounds.
Some of the science and music theory was off in the video (fmaj7 3rd inversion), but the products are generally amazing.
@Astrolopitekos it was dubbed the "god particle" by the media to hype it up. It's a pretty important particle (origin of mass, and thus in turn, the cause of gravity if you're going by the relativity spacetime fabric and spatial distortions).
We're trying to express the inexpressible as posford -wouldn't- say God raja kills me
there was something on that guys camera. I totally rubbed the screen for a good 10 seconds before i realized it was the lens >.>
@captainadmiral1 Yes, this is Audio Damage's Automaton
awesome video!
Raja is the best person and he is also Australian too.
Shpongle reminds me of Pink Floyd a bit, not music wise, but the idea and philosophy of the melody and lyrics.
You gotta listen to this song where David Gilmour, Shpongle and Alan parsons collaborated
hahhaa oooo how much I love them....^_^
Yes, yes... Let's give them 1200 Micrograms! :::D
Raja Ram is the man!
@somewhatanalog yeah, raj is more blazed than i've ever seen him in a vid :D
Well, I´m not that fund of drugs but if you´re like that when you´re over 70 I better start.
Running in corn 🌽🌽🌽 fields
@Clusterfrog it "Audio Damage Automaton" in Logic pro daw i believe
tanx bro :)
Shpongle is my Shaman.........
4:34 laughed out loud so loud
You are too cool.
oh right I should read some comments before I post.. gotta get me a copy of that
jaja genial saludos desde MEXICO!
Yesh :)
they sound so
high
4:00-4:10 priceless!
Benji im a huge fan of you and twisted records besides hard work and dedication..how did you get the funds for such a studio? and what was the process?. im an aspiring producer. im wondering.. thanks so much! did you have to work alot of shit jobs ? i keep telling myself " all the greats had to work shit jobs to pay for their amazing studios and musical equipment" what do you think?? Canyou message me in private maybe? Thanks much!
Having something to pay the bills is great, but dont be afraid to take a risk to grab your dreams.
What's that VST at 2:32?
Big Daddy
Ahhh more Shpongle =)
Did they travel to the future "July the 30, 2010"?
I think he says July 13th
@Rrrrobbo Audiodamage's Audiomaton ;)
I whish i was a part of it...
hes 71 to be more exact
I wish ron was my grandpa
2:05
Only way to get new neat inovattive sound design is by making noise music. keep up the avant-garde
Looks like Simon brought the old SH101....
and looks like raja's on lsd too
@dannyhood66
Why would you think that?
They never needed America for Psy.
Most talented artists within that genre (actually many genres) are not from America to begin with.
bet raja ram is 25 years old....he just did alot of drugs .. :P
I know, whats up with that, its like everywhere you go you see vids or pics with something on it and you think you have to wipe off your screen :)
@captainadmiral1 looks like Logic Pro to me
dude rofl
Does anyone know the name of that particular cellular sequencer they are using??? :DD
Hint: Aliens
Anyone know what software they're using at 2:31??
C A F and E make an Fmaj7 chord. just sayin.
john of damascus on fire... eating a giraffe... lol Where do you get your drugs mate!?
how you making this lsd sound hh
Can someone enlighten me on what that program was?
I think it was Logic... Better late than never :) Cheers
That's why most of composers, scientist and creators in general - are men! It's hard to imagine three womansitting in the basement and talking about music and maked it for years )
A woman should stay responsible so that man could be like a child)
this aint peter pan
rubbish
what the fuck man
Bro its an intersant perspective... but sound so mean. Just let it live in your head, dont share with us, be respectful. And if you found a way to make until in your own life, go ahead
Buddy... The real reason is because of people like yourself.
