This started on the 23 Jan that's when I first was recommended to me. Something is going on ? Like I feel there was a video that was going Virile and TH-cam or something didn't like it so Boom they switched it for whatever this is.
@@perhammarstrom4559 there's a chance that the owner of this channel never wanted TH-cam to recommend this video these days.

Imagine if they discovered this punch card in the 1700s and played it on a music box. It would have blown everyone's minds. Wars would have been fought over it. A Scottish baron would have killed a Prussian general for it and presented it to Queen Anne of Britain as a gift. Upon hearing it for the first time Queen Anne would have collapsed on the floor and started convulsing to which a mortified Prince George would have exclaimed "Annie are you ok?"
@@marvinthemaniac7698 I loved the "bad boys" that ran the carnival part of the fair. You can definitely go on some uncharted rides that way! And I did.
So there are several surprises here -- First, that this instrument actually exists, second, that player sheets exist for it, and third, that one of them is Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal.
@@raymondo162 almost correct. There are a few laser cutters out there as well, but the majority of these books are cut with a computer controlled solenoid punch
@@googleuser3163 the question is what "these" are... all the ones that are exactly like in the video very much still play, as they have been manufactured in the past 40 yrs... if older ones, then the question remains: do you mean of french origin with cardboard mechanism? or all hand turned organs? myself, I'm currently fixing up an old Muzzio barrel organ from New Jersey... so even if they are not currently playing, they certainly can be made playable again
The hard part is not letting the jam mess up the crank speed. You get too into it and start cranking too fast, the music will start playing faster and it'll sound weird.
I'm in awe of the cutting on that book - jaw-dropping intricacy. Never, ever would I have believed it was a hand-cranked organ without seeing this video.
As a matter of fact, this is a lot more work than a DJ does. The sheets are often prepared by the player, the instrument needs constant maintenance to make sure it plays well (it has a lot of mechanical parts), and - last but not least - the lever should be turned at a constant rate with a steady hand.
When I first saw this, I was unfamiliar with the original tune, and when the part started at 3:10, I was like what the @#$% is he DOING??!? Then, I checked out the original recording / music video, and realize he's made the organ reproduce a sonic representation of the GUNFIRE BATTLE, SCREAM (3:15) AND BODIES HITTING THE FLOOR (3:23) from the original music video. I dunno what kind of a mad genius (or dedicated MJ fan?!?) it takes to do this in a street organ arrangement... although I've heard of battle sounds being reproduced in early overtures played by orchestrions in the 19th century... this is definitely a new way of doing this.
funny meeting you here, Andrew :-D the Mathis family - just like Pierre Charial - were actually more into Jazz pieces before this one, so I suggested they should do something more "pop"ular

You are the DJ at the steampunk nightclub.

Or maybe bagpuss night club

Agreed. That added a lot to what was otherwise just cranking away and pulling some levers. It's obvious that he put a lot into this arrangement.

If it appears on recommended for no reason you know it's gonna be good.
Me too
i found this video literally by searching for it, back when it was in the triple digit views. it feels like a miracle being here today
I like how he's so into it yet he's only guiding a piece of paper, turning a crank and pressing a knob every once in awhile
Well smooth criminal IS a banger
Not any different than today's club DJs
Legend has it he was the dj on the titanic
I like how you can tell the beat's about to get intense because a shitload of dots are about to go into the machine.
the fact that he’s getting into it is so important to me. I would also be jamming the fuck out if i was there
