I have observed a pattern(a formula perhaps) for these types of videos from Ichika Nito, Marcin, and even Tim Henson: They release a studio track, shoot a video in an interesting environment that tells a story, and then create a play through, one shot, an unplugged version, a live version, sometimes an instructional video teaching you how to play the song. All in all, it helps the artist earn money without selling their soul to a large corporation.
LISTEN TO MARCIN AND TIM HENSON - CLASSICAL DRAGON!!!! LISTEN TO MARCIN AND TIM HENSON - CLASSICAL DRAGON!!!! Both of them released them doing live version too!
Don't normally comment on your vids because they don't need my input. BUT, I agree with you 100% on this one. You can't help but be yourself. Don't start pulling punches now. :)
In Marcin's case its a magic - not a trick. Just check some of his live - latest from half time - or Marcin interview with Rob Scalon- You will change your mind.
I totally get your point, Michael. Please don't forget to give those clips a listen that I emailed to you. One is raw and he was years younger...the other is much more recent. Much love to you and the GG community!
There is a live version of this song with just Marcin playing in a garden outside. It's short, but there is no post production or effects. Just Marcin and a guitar.
If he says something stupid like in this film he should check other videos of Marcin before. There are many videos on yt where he plays it live and it sounds the same… i was on his concert and he really plays in this way…
Oj chłopie tu masz Marcina niedowiarku. Marcin wielokrotnie o was mówił, a wy ciągle swoje. th-cam.com/video/0FImBCNRGxo/w-d-xo.html i jeszcze tu, to jest nówka sztuka th-cam.com/video/V3CHbaFS3aQ/w-d-xo.html
If you are interested in watching a live performance Of Marcin you can watch ( When the NBA hire just one guitarist for a halftime show) this is the video that made me discover Marcin and I just love his performance and skills.
Michael, it's your channel and website. You are allowed to have opinions and share them with the community. If someone doesn't like it, they should move on to a different TH-cam channel. Just my two cents worth given out for free. No apologies necessary!
Michael Palmisano, look at time marker 2:25-2:29 closely near bottom left of Ichika's guitar, you'll see a cord running out and closely tucked along bottom of his shirt. Now, whether its actually plugged into the amp/mixer/etc is anyones guess lol. Love your videos Michael :)
I agree Michael! I prefer live performances to see and hear what there’re doing in real time. I recently watched John Mayer playing Gravity live and I was so impressed with his feeling!
Yea, I almost feel like they shouldn’t have had the guitar plugged in at all - own it being unplugged for the video; otherwise, it looks like a “whoops, you caught us” moment (which it wasn’t, this was a video shoot - no one should expect a music video to be played live). Ichika is a beast, with or without a cable lol
If you want to hear something that will make your jaw hit the floor, check out Mirar. They just dropped a new EP called Mare and it’s a masterpiece of insanity
Marcin is in the middle of his world tour right now. There are a lot of his live performances available online, if you're interested. By the way, he has already played the guitar half of his natural life and he's 23 now:-)
Wooo, hot episode today! 😅 I agree 100%!!! These are phenomenal artists, but i will take live performances over produced ones any day!!! Thanks for another great episode! And everything else!! Much love to all ❤
I think he puts gel on his finger nails because otherwise they would probably snap as he’s using a steel string guitar which I can imagine is quite hard to play with your fingernails
th-cam.com/users/liveBYbhw9W9ShE?si=AR4Imwp1HaCSJ14w Marcin at Guitar Masters 2016 Just him and guitar 9.58.00 Maybe one day Michael will react to that ;))
And I personally think you said it well brother : ALL I got out o this was a beautiful tune man......hats off to the players for their amazingly developed talent , BUT......I AM NO FAN OF AI GENERATED ANYTHING!!!!!!!......call me old school if ya want to , but I gotta make contact with the more human side of everything......everything!!! lol!! I'm 69 now , and speed is a thing o the past for me anyhow. lol!! Amazing video.....just a little too amazing. Thank you good sir for your honesty. Cheers , ron
The only time I agree with this is when it's studio audio done over an actual live performance. If it's just a normal music video like this, it doesn't really matter to me. It's just something nice to watch while listening
When u watch a band's music video, they are obviously not playing live its obviously recorderd properly in a studio, it's like a music video bro, not that deep, they both can play that live
Phenomenal work as usual 🙏🏻 If you ever get the chance, I’d love to hear your breakdown of Snuggie Otis’ passionate solo on Al Looper’s Looking For A Home. There’s no live footage in existence, but…man it’s a helluva solo: th-cam.com/video/-LSbI9na4oQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zEzYW0A2xwENG1FH
Michael, I wish you would react to Haley Reinhart and PostModern Jukebox covering "Creep"by Radiohead. It has over 123 million views. She has a beautiful voice.
I get what you’re saying about the video. I still love the arrangement and obvious talent on display, but it sometimes veers over the line from “inspiring” to “daunting and borderline depressing.” Still really enjoyed it though.
While I agree with what you said, I have to point out that you said something along the lines of "playing guitar all our natural lives". That makes me think there's a zombie or undead guitarist somewhere out there haha.
Man like you said this takes nothing away from these guys being absolute monsters at what they play. It truly is marvelous and too good to fake. However that doesn’t mean editing isn’t gods tool lol. When I first heard this video I rmemebe thinking wow this sounds produced and I never noticed the cable until now. Like I said these guys would take my lunch money in every sense of the word as players. However you finally got that point across that my brain couldn’t link!
I understand your point but I also grew up in the music video era when none of the footage in the video was the actually what you were hearing. But this presentation is a bit misleading.
this type of video sells more and its more entertaining to watch for most people, if u dont like it thats totally cool but i wish u did talk a bit more about what they were doing instead of expressing why u dont enjoy these types of videos
It's a pity, you have chosen this video with Marcin. Not my favourite one. If only you'd like to spend your time I recomend You Rob Scallon interview with Marcin. You will love or give up.
I don't like it at all. Sorry, but this might be too "new school" for me. I watched Kent Nishimura's "man in the mirror" recently. Man, that's something to try to learn.
100% agree with your statement. Those guys are sure superhuman guitar players but it seems to me that the very soul of it is missing at some point... I prefer by far listnening to tommy Emmanuel, Mick Dawes or Justin Johnson... Something is definitely missing here... Thanks anyway for sharing
And here you have Marcin playing it live th-cam.com/video/XXkMVNE7ous/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rm5DYVta-FXkhxxY th-cam.com/video/bmi3brlf2FI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=4eDzb7IInrdm7kCg th-cam.com/video/XXkMVNE7ous/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rm5DYVta-FXkhxxY th-cam.com/video/bmi3brlf2FI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=4eDzb7IInrdm7kCg
I don't think he's jealous. It's more about the fact that what they play is edited, and he just likes pure guitar playing without any additions or enhancements. I quietly hope there will be a request from his subscribers for a video where Rob Scallon interviews him... I'm curious to hear what he'll say after that video...
I’ve never been a big fan of this style or any math rock stuff. Seems like it is almost on its way out of its fad. I think TH-camrs and Polyphia oversaturated the style. Love the video though. I can always appreciate the technical ability behind it.
I thought it was just a music video? Why is Michael so perplexed 😂 he sounds like a boomer. Attention span for normal reels & tik tok is seconds maybe minutes they need fast cuts
You really ruined this one. Who cares if what we hear isn't what could be heard in the room at the time when they recorded this. The only thing that matters is that it sounds great, and that it really is them playing, so no fake shit going on whatsoever!
I agree it’s a music video absolutely absurd to think they’d record the music video and the audio at the same time they both have hundreds of live videos they post on there social media already as well
@@dylanrogers510 And that's exactly why he shouldn't have reacted to them playing in a music video! Surely he must've watched it before he chose to react to it, and despite of that he completely misunderstood and regarded it as if they deliberately were trying to fool people into thinking it was a live video, but that was never their intention! smh

Watch Marcin's NBA half time show where Marcin plays live 👍
LISTEN TO MARCIN AND TIM HENSON - CLASSICAL DRAGON!!!! LISTEN TO MARCIN AND TIM HENSON - CLASSICAL DRAGON!!!!
Both of them released them doing live version too!
Agree... that song is heavenly to sleep to as well.🏆
Yessss!!!
Hated that song and I’m a fan of both
@@shl6367shame
Would love to see you react to the Marcin NBA Halftime show, or any of his old classical pieces live. He can truly play this well
The old Rob Scallion video with him is nice as you get to see him unadulterated
Yes, high recommendation for this Rob Scallon interview!
With who??
@@jacknolanguitar with Marcin

Yo no way! I recommended Marcin like a year ago. Today is my day!
In Marcin's case its a magic - not a trick. Just check some of his live - latest from half time - or Marcin interview with Rob Scalon- You will change your mind.

You should react to "When I play Classical Dragon in One Take" by Marcin
There is a live version of this song with just Marcin playing in a garden outside. It's short, but there is no post production or effects. Just Marcin and a guitar.
Hell yeah man, your fans appreciate your taste and your input. Nothing wrong with being REAL in your reactions
If he says something stupid like in this film he should check other videos of Marcin before. There are many videos on yt where he plays it live and it sounds the same… i was on his concert and he really plays in this way…
Michael thank you for your honest feedback highly appreciate it. Keep up the great videos.
Thanks for your reaction. Can you react to Marcin's The Tall Fiddler? You will see how good he is. Greetings
I would love some more Dead soon.

BRO. How have you still not done Run Away by Dirty Loops? So much juicy stuff to talk about from a guitar/bass standpoint!! Come on brotha!
Would this be considered a neo soul styling?

There’s something almost like kpop “contrivey” (not sure I even know what I’m saying) about their videos but it’s all fun
Phenomenal work as usual 🙏🏻

Please watch MARCIN’s NFL half time show..it’s absolutely LIVE.
Now a Ichika-Mike Dawes duet must happen! I agree with you on this,however! Talented musicians don’t need to play like this on every song!

It was subscriber request.. he don't pick it by himself.. so probably if a subscriber make a request with donation then maybe yes
GO REACT CLASSICAL DRAGONNNN NOOOWWW
Listen TO CLASSICAL DRAGON by Marcin and Tim Henson. YOU WOULD LOVE IT
will you please listen to classical dragon by Marcin and Tim Henson
Please react to Classical Dragon! (Marcin x Tim)
I have massive respect for their talent, but this type of music just leaves me cold regarding the feeling.
Spot on Michael. Too polished for my liking also.
I don't like it at all. Sorry, but this might be too "new school" for me.
I watched Kent Nishimura's "man in the mirror" recently. Man, that's something to try to learn.
Classical Dragon , Marcin and Tim
I can appreciate the level of skill and originality. But this stuff just isn’t really for me.

Well jeez, Michael, I amost feel bad for recommending the video now. You have to admit that the chord comping was super clean, studio or not.
It is not a trick Mike, watch marcin's live nba halftime show.
Cry me a river 😅
See Marcin's live performances to see his superiority
Greetings 🇵🇱

I hate the adhd style guitar playing. Imagine buy an album and listening to this for 60 minutes…..
Couldn’t do it. I can’t get through an entire polyphia song. It’s so overwhelming with noise that it is somehow boring.
