Copy paste from Wiki : "The key components to Parker's pedal setup is a Holy Grail reverb into a Blues Driver into a Carbon Copy delay into a Dyna Comp into a Small Stone phaser into a Fuzz Face and then into a Diamond Vibrato (vibrato added during Lonerism-era). The reverb into a fuzz and phasers set to a slow rate are the hallmarks of Parker's guitar sound, which has influenced many modern psychedelic rock bands to have a similar setup, which Parker says "it’s the most flattering thing in the world to hear a band ripping you off."
bro. he ripped off so many others ...haha this sound is not his sound. they literally sound like a few other bands io know that have been out for a while but this is pop and pop is always populr to the masses no one actually cares about the music and what took him where he is now, he did not invent this sound at all you would be surprised to hear what i have heard .
Iamwe Kevin’s been releasing his own music since 2008.. pretty sure this is his sound lol. You can’t name any names because you don’t know what you’re talking about

Haven't been able to hit the replay button fast enough on this all evening. His throwaway stuff is gold. Sickening how talented he is. Can't wait for the new album whenever it will be.

@@Ali_Clarkson I've just discovered Powerlines today as well as this video and I also prefer this version. For me, the original has this overpowering 3 note melody that gets introduced in the middle and takes the track off its course.
@@shotbydebt here everything just sounds and feels much more impactful. The mix is hotter, and everything is punchy. It seems so much more raw and I love it. This is my preferred Take Impala style

Here it is for whoever wishes this version was the official one: soundcloud.com/mengzy/tame-impala-powerlines-mengzy-edit

DN you can stay there? so Kevin rents it out and just basically trashes the place with all his equipment 😂 I know he’s been in this house even during the making of Lonerism
Dear Kevin and other Tame Impala team, please make a longer version of this wonderful track. I really enjoy listening to the mesmerizing and at the same time very good audible music songs composed and done by you. Thanks in advance. Lots of love to you guys from India 💝💐💐🇮🇳🙏
@@dolf7097 but its not the same. however, if u look up powerlines extended, youll get several versions that mix the drum part in the final version with this demo of powerlines. also, a guy named alpha has an extended version of this particular demo if that is specifically what u are looking for. (a year late of replying lol)
kevin parker has put me in this headspace where if i ever start making music i feel it needs to be done in a mansion on the beach while the sun is setting for it to be good
Nah you just need to be in a safe space where you can be free to let loose your feelings, and have the equipment to record yourself doing so. You can start anywhere
This man single handedly revitalized my faith and interest in music. Went to Brazil to meet my wife's parents and one of her childhood friends turned me on to this man. It changed my life. I salute you, sir!
I just want to spend every moment of my life in that room. Instruments, speakers, computer, couch. The sun bathing everything with light. Ugh, damn him.
That's become my opinion as well as I listen more (and more and more), though I think depending on what this track actually is (an instrumental segue like Nangs? or perhaps this is only a segment of a longer track -fingers crossed for an 8+ minute odyssey) it might have been a nice way to turn the corner into "Act III" of the album, i.e. after Disciples into the slower-tempo, dreamier tracks that take us out. If it wasn't evident by now, I listen to Currents at least 1x a day :D
Love this comment!! I hear this album in the same way. And I still listen to Lonerism daily too, then straight on to Currents. Can't wait for this to release (tomorrow!) but hope it will be available on spotify (does anyone know?).
turns out it was an instrumental after all... i think all 3 of the "new" tracks are great, each could have made the album in one way or another, but ultimately were better left as formative conceptual starting points and probably got the proper treatment as b-sides
An exceptional musician with immeasurable talent. So glad he's able to do what he loves for the foreseeable future and the rest of us get to enjoy it :)
I just come to tell you, from my seat, to keep making the music that you really feel conveys what your heart tells you. Be always yourself. BE REAL WITH YOURSELF.
So blessed to have this man around in our time. He is so good at what he is doing. And the passion he feels for it. You can´t deny that. Get the paint on that canvas Kev, can´t wait for what´s next!
So much better than the polished version. This reminds me of when I fell in love with my wife. It was when she came to surprise me at a friends funeral. It was a punch through my soul. Thanks Kev for reminding me I am alive again. Nothing is lost in this life. Cheers!

Same here, I actually went ahead and made a little edit to fit this teaser's audio with the original Powerlines release within 2/3 of the song in a semi-haphazardly manner in which it fades initially with the bass solo part then fades out towards the ending just in time for the fade out portion. Not the best mix, but that's the best I can find a way to insert the audio. Since soundcloud has auto removed the soundtrack, I'll have to give a direct link: files.catbox.moe/iv7oqn.mp3 Just don't tell Jesus I did this.

Always remember that Kev and the guys all lived in a house together. Creativity begets creativity.

by buying the boxset that this video is promoting
I wonder why he changed it in Powerlines. This version has a better buildup in my opinion.
just rip this from youtube :)
I have a theory he is saving it for the next record 👍
No, it’s instant fake plastic joy that leaves you broken and unable to hold a proper job.

why isn't there anyone else from the band here
Because tame impala is kevin parker, it's not a band
Yeah the band is just some of his buddies that play the other instruments during live shows, his albums are all self-produced

I though that he only mixed the weather and played drums on first pond appearences…
If anyone is curious, the song is Powerlines from his B-Side album. It sounds a bit different in comparison to this one, but still sounds excellent!
