- Joost taught me how to play, or grind as it is called with the proper term, a street organ and it was much more difficult than i could have guessed! Enjoy! Martin & Co.

Hey Everyone, there will be no new WW Video Today, Wednesday October 11:th! We are very sorry for that, both me and Hannes have been indisposed for a week and we will get back to regular posting as soon as possible! Just wanted to let you all know why, and that we are back to normal soon, take care! Martin & Co
Wintergatan Aw
Take your time Martin ;)
Take care @Martin! (and @Hannes of course!)
Thank you so much for the awesome vinyl of Wintergatan, it's got a special place now :-)
Casper
Take care both of you
Thanks for the heads up! I was hoping, but we all would rather you take your time and do great things! :)
“Why are your arms so big?”
“I grind and organ for a living.”
“Ohhhhhhhh...”
YMCA is the perfect song for such a flamboyant looking instrument
thomas rushton But if only the tiny figurines could spell out Y.M.C.A.
LOL
What does YMCA means ?
The village people were a gay musical group so that adds to the irony.
i was like, that sounds familiar
Okay, I have to admit I wasn't expecting "YMCA" of all songs...
My thoughts exactly... :'D
Neither was I, and it took me a moment to recognize it during the intro. After a few seconds you realize just how perfect of a song choice it was, it sounds great!
Spoilers! There are of those that read comments while the video loads, and yours is at the top.
homosapienssapiens19 spoilers? Lul
blalo'u
I hope you sang along to it. 😂👍
Aww, the people at Speelklok are all so incredible nice and friendly. I love them.
thats because he is from the Netherlands!
I myself have performed on this very organ! & And the much bigger Aalster Gavioli!
Andrew Smith how did you do that
Yes they are Lars and it is nice that the mainly young guides are keen to preserve their heritage and are so enthusiastic. Anyone interested in mechanical music from music boxes to full blown organs, should visit this museum in a church in Utrecht near the Dom Tower.
"Oh, nice arm muscles. Have you been working out?"
"Yeah, playing my organ"
o.o "Okay.... then..."
"WAIT! I MEAN AN INSTRUMENT!"
"I'll stay out of what you do with your 'instrument'."
mmm hmmm ok
I love how at the start of this series Martin is very professional and fairly withdrawn, but now he is like best friends with the people at the Speelklok Museum
That museum really keeps up maintaining that street organ. It sounds so clean I love it!! I always love listening to vintage and antique musical instruments like the player piano and other instruments that were mechanically prrogrammed to play. Keep in mind, instruments like the street organ really set the pavement for today's MIDI programs.
Such a street musician could defend himself and his prized possession at any time by throwing devastating punches...
I would put bicycle speedometer on that Organ so it would be easy to keep an even tempo.
BendMan Bicycle pedals would make it even easier, and the whole Gilligan's Island contraption would be fun to watch.
Yeah! I can imagine retro bicycle with huge front wheel somehow integrated into that instrument and rider with a strange retro outfit. Maybe an idea for Wintergatan3?
+
Gilligan's Island theme song book. Now that is a great song idea!
@BendMan Could you imagine if it was a moving machine too? Like you could pedal around town while playing or something.
Adios Nonino really sounds like a JRPG soundtrack when it is played on a street organ
Lmfao, you really like letting the bellows empty, and he doesn't. It's so funny to see him rush over to try and stop it from emptying.
That's simply not true. The only reason Joost is rushing to keep it turning is he wishes the song to continue playing. At 05:17 he lets it die himself and he doesn't look annoyed.
3:44
To be honest, YMCA was probably the last song I was expecting.
I wasn't expecting "YMCA" but at least we haven't been Rick Rolled xD
Don't go giving him ideas.
LMAO!
NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP NEVER GONNA... ok i won't
I wouldn't mind for one. Maybe as an April fools prank he might do it.
Some trivia: "Adios Nonino" means "Goodbye, daddy". When Piazzolla receibed the new of the dead of his phater, he stay alone in his room. After half of an hour in complete silence, his daughter hear that he was playing the bandoneón. He was composing "Adios Nonino".
Filosofía de película Wow, that's a powerful story. Music can heal such deep pain.
@@buddyclem7328 It was also the song played at the wedding from Maxima and Willem Alexander ( Dutch king and queen)
I love Piazzola. He was the best!
The best rendition of YMCA I've ever heard.
When I was a kid i loved these street organs! Every Thursday there was a market were there was something just like that!
for me they pretty much sound like all the musik for the supernintendo rpg-games was made with them :D
I have the same feeling, looks like a pokemon song ^^
Bob de Bouwer how do you findnone of these holy junk!!
What, are you 100 years old? Lucky you.
There was one in the city here last week, here in the netherlands they are still everywhere.
I love the fact that you have at least two microphones recording these incredible machines, so that we get the stereo image.
Makes me think of the original Roller Coaster Tycoon :)
LOL Yes!!
My exact same thought!
Best was when the carousel broke and played faster :)
Anthony Grise The sound of honestly sounds like it belongs in a Pokemon game.
A year or two of my life was devoted to RCT/RCT2. I made my own recreation of Cedar Point.
You are such an inspiration. An eye for film, an ear for music, and a heart for creativity. Truly an inspiration for me, and I am genuinely excited for your weekly updates and learning about the things you love. Would honestly watch more content you did with more stuff like this. Keep up the awesome work. Excited for MMX
The guides are so cute, man, such lovely people
Absolutely adore these videos. The craftsmanship and engineering is fascinating
Man, the sound of the bellows collapsing is so perfectly recognizable. It is /literally/ music grinding to a halt.
Merry-Go-Round 1 looks too intense for me
Merry-Go-Round 1 had broken down
Merry-Go-Round 1 has crashed.
Merry-Go-Round 1 still isn't fixed get more engineers or organize them better.
Merry-Go-Round 1 is a really good value
Guests cannot find entrance to Merry-Go-Round 1
In case you dont know, the last song is *"Adiós Nonino"* (farewell father) by *Astor Piazzola* an argentinian composer _(1921-1992)._ Here is if you want to hear it in its original version of 1969. [ th-cam.com/video/ln8EkQN_-Xo/w-d-xo.html ]
Venía a ver si alguien lo había comentado. Aguante wintergatan, papá!
Si, de hecho me sorprendió que el mismo no lo había aclarado. Quizás no lo sepa.
A beautiful piece of music
That was actually a song played by an orchestra at the wedding day of King Willem-Alexander Claus George Ferdinand van Oranje Nassau of the Netherlands and Máxima Zorreguieta, and because of her Argentinian, heritage, this song was played. It can be seen here: th-cam.com/video/bJWD_789-OE/w-d-xo.html and is a very well known part of Dutch media history. And if you didn't get the link to this video already: the Speelklok museum is situated in Utrecht, the Netherlands, which explains the usage of this piece.
+Bob Ogden Indeed. In fact the whole album (of the same name) is a masterpiece.
That looks much harder than I thought it would be
8:07 He said "Adios Nonino" song by Astor Piazzolla, argentine bandoneon player!
_Comentario diciendo "aguante argentina!", "piazzolla es el mejor compositor y bandoneonista" etc_ jajaja
Hi there!!! It is very nice to listen Piazzola’s Adiós Nonino and verify that it’s still hard to play on any type of instrument!!! Greetings from Argentina!!! And: keep doing things like this!!!!
This is so much fun watching & listening to mechanical historical instruments. Thank you so much for doing this for all of us to enjoy.
Wonderful instrument, and I could feel Bioshock infinite vibes. I love it.
That was absolutely fantastic! I liked how you thought the drum should be on the front and not the back - the 90-degree kick drum would've fit here nicely. And no cats were actually smothered in the making of this video, right? Okay, perhaps only two or three. :)
These machines/instruments simply amaze me. The creativity that went into designing and building them. This is an enjoyable series
I must say I appreciate you and your other listeners. The overall tone of the comments and the conversations are actually constructive! You bring good vibes and I wish them to you as well. Keep it up Martin!
8:55 Lois and Joost looking very concentrated in the background to see how Martin is doing ;)
Awesome episode. I used to hate street organs, but that has to do with the people playing them and the terrible song choice that usually accompanies them
Adios Nonino, 10/10 would recommend!
And in case you are unaware, that piece is quite famous in The Netherlands because it was played at the wedding of our King and Queen
used to hate them in my student years whenever i was hungover they seemed to be standing in front of my house giving me a worse headache 😅
0:00 This could be the start of a wonderfull meme
flexxarnnn I imagine it's when something happens or someone appears unexpectedly. Kinda like Ro Be Continued or Omae Wa Mou.
Rickrolled by a Street Organ.
YMCA goes old school. Thank you, Wintergatan.
Gotta love Holland, man! Wherever you go, whoever you talk to, everybody is super friendly and fluent in english without even thinking about it. Try that here in Germany...
I'm always amazed to see old mechanic instruments, keep up this kind of videos, please!
Adiós Nonino sounds cool! My brothers were taught to play it on flute at school when they were kids.
Martin, that was pretty cool to watch.
My low expectations were blown out of the water, very cool.
Young man, there's no need to feel down
I have a new respect for organ grinders... lots of work! They must have all been in great shape!
"I'm Connor, the android sent by the Speelklok Museum."
of all songs they would pick to be played on an antique street organ, they pick YMCA.
I never thought about the arm tiredness before!
Faceless Music Diary i can think of another use of the name organ grinder. A wanker. Literally.
speaking from experience it gets so hard to turn when the Bass pipes are singing theres a real good reason why they was motorised so quickly plus when only a few pipes are singing it becomes very relaxed but you only get like 2 secs of a break before it becomes alive again :) its a stupidly hard skill to do but always worth it.
Good grinding technique demonstrated on a Marenghi organ here with the "Lambada":
th-cam.com/video/VTeGuiTTdGc/w-d-xo.html
...even more here on this Bursens organ: th-cam.com/video/PrTojM-3fzw/w-d-xo.html
Piazzolla!! Perfection!! I almost cried!! It was an unexpected start for a video. Very good.
Mal yo tampoco lo podía creer, muy emocionante la verdad
Love Wintergatan Mondays!
De drie pruiken= The three wigs
Yes it means that and is pronounced pruiken (sounds similar to prowken, rather than pruken) Been there and it is a very special museum.
Martin must be a very calm person (or brave). I almost jumped at 9:35 and it wasn't directly into my ear...
:) your videos legit make my week better.
Emily Barbee Agreed
Thank you for taking the time to get a quality stereo recording of this. It sounds incredible.
Thanks so much for sharing this Museum, its my favorite utube subscriptions Wintergatan, these are definately professionally made mini movies you guys bring us.
There are kinds of people who inspire you and others that can make you descend. I am always happy when I find the first kind there I am also well. Thanks.
Loved this! Thank you so much for sharing💖💖💖
What a delightful video! Thank you for sharing this experience with us.
That is an absolutely hilarious video! Thanks for that!
Hi Martin, that looked fun & now that you've had a go, how many hamsters do you estimate would it take to run that thing?
HAHAHA! YMCA is the song of my childhood. There is something so intriguing about the sound of this instrument.
This was so much fun to watch! Thank you!
This is awesome! Informative and fun; great job as always Martin!
What a beautiful sounding organ! In perfect tune, with very precise rendering. You are a quick learner too! Once I tried it and my tempo was all over the place. By the second try you already got it! You are a natural for mechanical music machines...
YAY More Video!
That was fking cool. Thanks for sharing the awesome instrument experiences. Look forward to Monday's because of these videos. :D
This is my favorite Music Machine Monday video so far!
what a fantastic machine! Thank you.
Love this sound. Thanks.
thats so awesome ! and good job with the organ wheel thing!
I love that sound, as a dtuch guy it's like walking down the streets in a city and hearing the organ play. Thanks for showing us
Thank you, this is beautiful
Excellence as always
This is one of my favorite songs I've ever heard for some reason
I absolutely love this series. By far one of the best, fun, and educational on TH-cam. Keep up the great work! :D
What an amazing machine! You guys have such cool museums over the pond.
Can't tell you how much I've enjoyed this series thus far.
These videos are no where near as popular as they should be, they are so fantastic!
This guide is really excited, i like him.
This is great,, keep up the good work..
Lovely!
Beautiful piece performed properly congrats.
This was amazing😍
Excelente! Astor Piazzolla, un gran visionario de la nueva música de mi querida Argentina y el mundo. ❤ Gracias desde Buenos Aires!
Idk why, but I love that Joost guy. I want to give him a hug.
This was awesome...thanks...
I love this serie!
Awesome... Thank you
This made me smile.
Another great video. Keep it up. 👍👍
That was so cool!
What an awesome, uplifting video. Thanks for making this! :D I really would like to visit that museum one day.
I love that sound
The intro sounds like a final fantasy boss
Riley Reminds me of kefka
Great XD this vid is a mix of music lesson full of fun
You look a little tired mah man, plz take care of your health, we don’t want MM-X will be played by a zombie, again plz take care of your health. 😊
My guess is that they took a few days to film all these Speelklok specials and that he isn't flying back and forth to do every individual video.
My point being that what you see here is probably a few weeks in the past.
It just seems like a lot of work for him compared to the guy at the museum. If he was more used to some hard work he would have looked less strained.
Good lord the original song is so beautiful.
It's "Adios Nonino" by Astor Piazzola.
Looks like a lot of work. Thanks for the video.
Thats so cool!!!
WHAT FUN ! THANKS SO MUCH !
That was so cool
Awesome.
