If you're new here, my name is Andrew Huang and I'm a musician who works with many genres and many instruments - and I've also made music with many things that aren't instruments like balloons, pants, water, and dentist equipment. For more info visit my website: andrewhuang.com
You can also stream and download my 40+ albums and EPs at andrewhuang.bandcamp.com or check out my other videos at / andrewhuang
Thanks for watching today and a big hug to you if you share this video with someone! - เพลง
It's settled. Andrew Huang is the best DAW. People can stop fighting now.
More like a H.A.W
Human audio workstation
Or living audio workstation
alright alright new list
1. Andrew Huang
2. Ableton
@@9teenangelz you made a typo in Reaper. 😉🤭
@@9teenangelz 3. Studio One or Bitwig. Probably Bitwig.
So cool. My professor would hook up electrodes to read his brain waves, go into a synth, then he would improvise soprano sax over that, back into the synth, creating a crazy feedback loop of insane future jazz
ohhhh i rlly wanna hear that!
@@maniacalworm same it sounds so good
That's some cyberpunk jazz. Cyberjazz, if you will. That's a really cool idea, always great when you have a creative and talented teacher
does he also think about jazz when he reads his brain waves?
@@edwardschleicher4943 😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
Andrew your monthly class rocked and you taught me to value joy that the creativity of the process creates! Totally am down with the sound you have in your new album. Would love a video on how to make your voice sound like a thick choir synth like the chorus of your Interstellar track!
I'm wondering if maybe he used the vochlea dubler? 🤔
Beyond ableton what gear or soft wear did you need to own or buy for the course I’m thinking of taking it in may
@@freedomreed a midi keyboard, a mic and obviously something to listen to your stuff on (headphones or monitors) andrew has a couple suggestions that you can see and go through if you sign up, even befor the class starts! This way you'll be prepared!
Agree, how the heck is this vocoder so big
Music comes from the soul and flows through the instrument. Andrew Huang, however, removed the middle man and turns his face, the window to his soul, into the instrument itself.
Complex sounds from his complexion, a fascinating performance by his face.
A bit racist but Ok
@@phoneticalballsack not even close
@@phoneticalballsack How?
@@phoneticalballsack How?
It is amazing how far synth racks and modules have come.
This is amazing too, yet it’s something I never thought I’d see, well, hear.
What a peculiar thing to hear someone say, alright, let’s see what music my face has for me today.
This kind of music reminds me to the "Journey to the microcosmos" TH-cam documentary series about the micro World. Totally worth checking if you are into weird microscopic living things.
I am the composer on that show 😆 and yes it’s great!
Lol 😂
When I watched the first JttM episode I thought "huh, this sounds a lot like Andrew Huang" and sure enough, there he was in the credits 😃
Read the credits of the things you like!!
Well that explains it haha. Great show indeed 😌
@@andrewhuang this is news to me, fun to know.
Have you had the time to work with the new Lubadh firmware?
I think you should title this video "Making beautiful music with my beautiful face"
Andrew, you are a big inspiration for me wanting to make music. I've watched most of your videos and I've learned a lot from them.
I started a band with a couple friends a couple months ago and we are still finding our sound, but one day, I bet we will make it, and I want you to know, you are the main reason I want to continue. Have a good day, my guy.
Lol, I’m inspired too, and I’m not really even into making music (yet?) Still, I’ve learned a little about music here and there, and it’s fascinating to see the overlap between my own interests and what I notice in the videos of those passionate about music. In a way, their passions rub off on me a bit through what I learn from videos like Andrew’s.
Crazy Video idea: use the psion hooked up to a plant and make the patch use only sine waves. Have a plant that grows to its own harmonies and grow it next to a control plant. Im very curious to see the difference. PLEASE DO THIS
Good point; limiting all the parameters or criteria for the list of choices really can refine this whole idea. Limits are a way to not miss out, and instead capitalize on the interconnected layers of a work.
Dude your electricity sounds like the song that plays when you're walking down a long hallway in a story heavy indie game before the character reflects on the journey that you had with them
Well that was an unexpected piece of gear to throw on the table, haha. I have been thinking about doing something like this since Terry Crews did that Old Spice commercial. Thank you for doing it with synth patches. Very cool.
Man, you never fail to inspire! Always finding music in new interesting places; between this, that MIDI mic, and your general synth skills you must be equipped to give some strange solo performances haha
it's like the plant just spoke to me. awesome
Well, I may not know a lot about modular synths, but thanks to sciatica I do know a lot about tens unit gel pads! If you need them to stick better just dip your finger in a cup of water, drip it on the gel, and gently rub it around until it's evenly coated. They'll stick a lot better 😊 Awesome music, I hope I get a chance to play with a modular synth someday!
Conclusion : put some reverb on your baby and it sounds perfect.
Im out of words to express how much I love and admire all that you do.
Sounds real nice with the plant connected. I could chill with that as peaceful background music in the house.
Great to see we are finding new ways to make music, Andrew makes a great synthesizer/keyboard combo!
Awesome video Andrew! I've been slowly building a rack around the Scion to interact with, so it's awesome to see your take on what I'm going for!
Amazing video. It's fascinating to hear those things happening in and around us.

Andrew’s face: **Nintendo DS startup**
these are so cool!!! I loved the plant video and this seems so inspiring!!
The plant made it sound so alieny spacey but so peaceful😭🔥
saw some one do this with mushrooms and plants, really cool experience :D
Love your work.
so beautiful!!!!!!!! thanks for sharing andrew
24 hr stream of plant would be lit.
This video needs more views ! This is reeealllyyy cool
Very cool setup!
Also that transition on the tape recorder... Awesome editing!
very nice and creative idea😍
A lot of this could really be used as ambient music sounds in a cute platformer. This is cool as.
I liked the story-based videos you were doing for the space-themed album. You should do another story series about this plant recognizing that it controls the music and learning to communicate with you that way.
WOW! That’s why I love your channel :)
I loved the ambient sounds that the plant produced. Some nice melodies there. I also loved the Tascam Portastudio. Something about the design of that appealed to me...
Oh man! Tascam 424 mk3 is just amazing. Love this thing!
The pitch control gave me chills for some reason.
I think it would be so cool having a live stream channel dedicated to the plant music thing
cool!!! your videos are still great after so long
This is so interesting scientificaly. Man, loved the video and it made me curious to listen to lots of different organisms
Huh, I thought I was the only one who would get the Wilhelm's scream when plugging something into inputs.
Really cool video, as usual :)
4:56 Wow! I had a Porta 2 then upgraded to a 488. This whole family of devices are just wonderful. Tape saturation and tape noise are just beatufil textures to add.
Also adding organic analog, like you face or plant, can be far more interesting than computer (digital) randomness. Btw, you plants cool too!
I've used my fingers with cellz. Like plugged into the cv inputs and then using my finger conductivity to like reign in the note flow. This reminded me of that. Ty
Would love to see a DJ-set in a club with DJ Plant.
This is really cool!
I had the best nap listening to Blue Dawn. Thanks Andrew!
This reminds me of adventure time. Nostalgia just hit me so hard.
1:00 you did literally nothing but connected the thing and I already want to add it to my "beats to study/relax to" playlist , insane
3:46 HOLY COW
the little meeting with Olivia was so cute
just awesome
this reminds me a bit of people putting guitar outputs through plants and mushrooms, has a similar randomness with musical tone.
Epic Andrew, very Epic.
man i love sounds
LOVE YOU ANDREW
💖💖
This is so cool!
So cool. It just sounds so odd. I can’t get over it!
BT spoke of something similar in an electronic music documentary like 20 years ago. I think it was like an EEG > MIDI cc
Nice. Unexpected tape session, interesting twist
can we just agree that this is freaking amazing? - like not only the concept - but the musik that just randomly appears is just freaking awesome
that explain a lot why we are create music and what is the connection
Plant: I'm thirsty. Water me and you get music.
I'm fucking happy to have embraced this new world of SOUND and MUSIC :)
Andrew. You have opened my eyes, ears and mind to plant music. I can never unexperience this. I want to make plant music now. Do you think different types of plants with different "activities" might behave differently musically??
6:13 - Was that a Wilhelm Scream? If so, nice! If not, still nice!
Hainbach's half speed detection senses are twitching and hearing that he's gonna mess with the speed.
I love this
Alvin Lucier's 'Music for Solo Performer' was here first. This looks fun, too.
This is the coolest thing ever.
Awesome.
Andrew out here figuring out how to communicate with plants.
imagine making all this completely digital and using it to generate background sounds for a game or something
If music is math and math is science, than it makes complete since to make science music. A natural harmony so to speak
This kinda reminds me of the middle of "Touch" by daft punk. Which is very fitting considering...
You just hit a jackpot when you said “more random random”. Computer are deterministic beasts. Best you can get from a computer is pseudo random. The signals you get from your face or plant tends to be more random unless there’s some underlying pattern on organisms I don’t know yet
You know he's good when even his cheeks are good musicians
That’s life!… that electricity we generate by living. I’ve tried this with an onion on Garden listener recently, and a cactus and was impressed what they sang… Cheers!
This whole setup is the coolest way to create random drones in keys to sit in the back of a mix. Automate the pan/volume and you’ve got some dope ear candy throughout the song!
Cool!
Wow... Very impressive, fo' real
That plant has more rhythm than many artists 🔥 LoL
Andrew's face is surprisingly relaxing
another great video
"Your face looks musical." - Hottest compliment on the block
I need a 4 hours video of that
Yooo! I made a video on that tape porta studio a few weeks ago! It’s sooo cool!
So cool
Man that plant did make something very similar to something I was doing myself! I think "musically" I'm just as smart as a plant lol
Great idea, I pretty much like the "natural randomness" this thing can make
Half of the things you said, I didn’t understand but it was still fun watching
now that plants what I call a...
RANDOM SEED
It would be very interesting to compare the output of the patch when connected to the sensors and when connected to a random source with some portamento between the random cv changes.
A tens unit is an instrument. Dope.
Andrew is top tier LV. I wanna see Andrew and Dan Mace collab one day. How their creativity would ever mix together.
You must try this whith the face of a bassist when he is playing
10:05 great so now even a plant makes better ambiences than me
Awesome
"I gave my face a sandbox to play in." 5/5
You know, as someone who sometimes makes entire song inside my head, I can't wait for the day we're able to perfectly translate the sounds that we make in our head to actual audio
i've thought about this a lot as well. it would be on the same level as translating dreams or thoughts into a recognizable image. maybe it's just me tho, but the idea of making songs that effortlessly would take some of the fun out of it for me
@@PeterYiffin yeah, it would get rid of pretty much all skill and I think music would get much much simpler because at least for me it's impossible to multitrack a whole entire thing in my head
I had another thought but I forgot while I was writing the other paragraph
@@PeterYiffin also idk what your profile picture is from but I like it
That's so cool. Do you have one of those brain wave sensor thingy? First step reading electrical signals from body/ face. Next step reading electrical signals from brain and see if the tune that gets recorded is the same as how it sounds in your brain. Brain music
this is how SOPHIE made Faceshopping and you cant convince me otherwise
If the randomness is digitally created, it’s not really random. Using yourself as the generator, unless you can control it purposefully somehow, is closer to real random. That in itself makes the art more special to me. The uniqueness of the moment it was captured.
Have you ever checked out the NIME proceedings Andrew? This kind of thing was the bread and butter of my music degree. "New Interfaces for Musical Expression" I think you would have a blast if you ever got the chance to attend the conference. Imogen Heap even presented a paper / demo in 2015 I think. I went in 2016, and you will never find a more nerdy bunch of music nerds.
Here's a fun idea for the future. Making music with boiling water, of water that's fluctuating in temperature. Idk how you'd go about this but uhhhh, could be done probably?
