This is the best newer creative genius I have seen in a while. This is taking things beyond the instruments that Laurie Anderson and a few others have invented. Love seeing creativity being pushed. Nice to see another person with both an AK and A4. Formidable pair. Well done Elektron.
I saw a crazy new act outta Providence called The Genitals Of Ken, where the musician ONLY uses the "bzzzt" of an unplugged 1/4 cord, and one delay loop pedal.... and I couldn't believe the sounds he was getting. He controls the "pitch" using the speed of the delay.... but he's making melodies, rhythms, etc. At first, it seems impossible, like he's cheating, but then you see he isn't! (sometimes he has a gal "vocalist" who simply imitates whatever sounds he's making). But they don't have any social media presence, sadly.
A deleted scene from Saw. The musical torture device. The release key is soldered to an ARP 2500 motherboard at the bottom of a pirhana tank. Elektron have gone dark.
This this the kinda stuff that makes you wonder “wtf am I doing with my life?” Lol one of the most unique things ive seen...maybe I’ll hook up a treadmill to my aK....
@Daniel DeMayo Yea, it reminds me once again that most humans are not innovators or actual creators. We tend to copy what we've seen or heard, and, at best, put our own little flavor on it. The funny thing is what he's doing is mechanically and electronically are quite simple. The music is simple as well, right? Also, if he presented these instruments and couldn't perform on them as he did, nobody would really care. It's the entire package (the idea, the creation, the utilization, and the presentation) that makes it genius.
Saw this guy live last year in Austin with all of his fabricated equipment before he got into Elektron. It was grimey, gritty, and metallic. The sounds he makes are one thing but to watch him do it completes the industrial feel. Highly recommended!
saw him live a couple years ago in PDX. great set. if you can catch him live don't miss it! ace dude too. was his birthday that night. bought a him a beer. wished him well.
I came across Author & Punisher a few days ago and my God this guy is absolutely amazing, he still blows me away. Definitely looking forward to seeing him live. Much love for A&P
It's awesome to see someome going their own way entirely. Amazing creativity and vision, nevermind the know-how to make it a reality. As soon as Covid-Quarantine is over, I'm gonna go to next show he plays close to me.
Caught a stream of him at Moogfest. Very interesting and cool. Good to challenge the assumption that we know all there is to know about human-machine interfaces. I think a microcosm of this is how programmers and gamers are all going back to mechanical keyboards.
Great innovative way to create live music. Like to see him playing techno or dark core on that, this could end as a fitness workout, but for his style i say it again it's great.
Try to fathom what music this dude, Mike Patton and Imogen Heap would collaboratively create...That dynamic would be so utterly boundless that it could be damn near apocalyptic! I can only scratch the surface in my mind of the leaps and bounds in musical innovation they would create when operating beyond any restriction! Hey DAARP - you guys looking for a sound-based crowd control device or, hell, even a weapon of unmeasurable destruction that would rival Tesla's concept of"the death ray?" That degree of immeasurable talent could split hairs, cause extreme sensory overload, boil blood, induce vertigo and perhaps even cause ears to collapse! Man, just trying to imagine what that would sound like is making my brain hurt! And I love skullgrinding metal so that's no trifle statement!
LOOOOL WHAT THE FUCK. Sorry man but i absolutely cannot take this seriously. Just imagine this guy building an iron man suit in a dungeon somewhere so he can make techno with it.
Woooow, this is something else....This is just as what i liked about Kraftwerk. Building your own equipment is great but this looks like it has been stolen from the spaceship from Alien...Genius guy for sure.
mind just blown....not everyday when you see something cool but not in a stupid hipster way lol best way i can describe it. def dig what he was saying about his music it self...
this guys cool but i have only found 1 actual track / music video of him every thing else is just him dropping by studios / talking about his controllers.
8 years after and elektron is still doing the same tiny machines and the same generic sequencer, don’t you realize that there is a complete universe beyond a midi sequencer? Elektron doesn’t deserve this kind of ideas and creativity
Legitimately nuts. Not something you see that often nowadays. More power to him.
+Adam Smith ha ha! This guy is something
Adam Smith i think this guy has enough "POWER" as it is ;) ;)
If he needs more power, he'll build it!
Don’t tell him about Ilon Mask
Indeed more power, he probably needs a dedicated 50amp circuit on 6/4 cord to run all of that.
This artist is innovative. Not just a musician, not just an engineer, not just an artist.

This guy is brilliant... I saw him in New York last week and he stood out as something special! I look forward to what he creates next!
Tristan is the king! So glad to see him getting the praise he has long deserved!

I can only imagine a collaboration between him and Full of Hell. Holy shit.
Unbelievably unique, heavy industrial music made by one of the most ingenious artist out there
amazing live performer. very cool and humble dude. highly recommended to see him live, very visceral and unique experience.
Saw him at Moogfest 2018 and I was totally blown away. Never knew something like this was possible.
This guy is a bonafide genius.

Daniel DeMayo Literally taking the day off to do music now.

Anyone got the tab?
He obviously already took three
Its the classic industrial one man band.
The evolution of this can only get faster and more mechanically complex and we're here for it.

this guy is like the tony stark of metal
THE SLOW DEATH HOOKS *industrial
Lol, isn't Tony Stark the Tony Stark of (Iron) metal? :D :P
But yeah I know what you mean :D
2020 Tool concert in Nashville brought me here. Great work Tristan and thank you for rocking the fucking house!
This guy is next level! Musical genius and a hell of a mechanical engineer too!
saw him live a couple years ago in PDX. great set. if you can catch him live don't miss it! ace dude too. was his birthday that night. bought a him a beer. wished him well.
Saw him live yesterday. It's just as powerful and weird as you can imagine. Very captivating. Go see him.
You gotta see him live to get the full effect. It took me a few songs to even follow what he was doing. Go see him if you get a chance!
I heard nothing but good things when he came through Detroit last year.
If Trent Reznor and Mad Max had a child...
More like Celtic Frost and Genesis P. Oridge.
@@gretchenhangleton9603 Love that comparison!
Can’t wait to see him in November
I came across Author & Punisher a few days ago and my God this guy is absolutely amazing, he still blows me away. Definitely looking forward to seeing him live. Much love for A&P
Kyle Langston glad you like it I’m not a ministry fan at all but this dude here is just awesome
It's awesome to see someome going their own way entirely. Amazing creativity and vision, nevermind the know-how to make it a reality.

I saw this guy last sunday in Croatia. It was amazing.
Love A&P! So inspiring,.
The definition of the term "Man-Machine" in a musical realm...awesome
Wow. Just WOW! That is some real hard work and you did not lose talent on the way. That is fucking commendable!
Love his use of the A4 with his own instruments. Super cool industrial.

Tristan Shone is the freaking best man!!!
This is so much cooler than some of these EDM artists just sitting behind a desk pressing a button
Rad Tristan!! this is excellent.
Pure energy
Is there also a video of just the performance?
Adeptus Mechanicus the song is called Beastland, it's the title track off of the new LP.
Is there a link to the performance minus the interview?
This guy is so smart and bad ass I’m gunna see him on Tuesday in San Jose should be cool as hell
He was good in person I was there too
Just saw as an opener with Tool, he was nothing special...
AWESOME!
This guy IS industrial.
See on Tool Tour 👍 can't wait!
I have no words.......
Very nice matchup: this guy with Elektron machines. Can sound pretty or get mega dirty distortion with a few knob turns.
wow, how awesome!
"Girth"
That is quite the way to describe your sound.
Accurate.

Fucking sickest shit in years. Tristan is great.
duude!!!! this is insaaaane!!!!!!
LOOOOL WHAT THE FUCK. Sorry man but i absolutely cannot take this seriously. Just imagine this guy building an iron man suit in a dungeon somewhere so he can make techno with it.
Genius. Not in the new sense but in the old.
DOOM (2016) tier music
Ne viens pas te plaindre des cadences infernales !
that was Bad Ass!
really interesting and really cool
I want one of them lever thingies
Holy fuck!
When skynet takes over the music industry
Amazing
Woooow, this is something else....This is just as what i liked about Kraftwerk. Building your own equipment is great but this looks like it has been stolen from the spaceship from Alien...Genius guy for sure.
Wicked setup :-)
Hell Yeah!
I look at this guy.. and I don't know him but it's like.. he's my brother. I look at this guy and I see myself.
Hell yea.
Amazing! Pls make more videos.
I wanna see a midi input into the Rails so he can hit a loop and see that thing just slamming away on its own. So fucking tight.
this is really crazy
My buddy had him on this Podcast the other night and you won't find a nice guy.
Einstürzende Neubauten 3.0
Charlie Clouser n this guy would make a killer team
Fuck yeah!
Very interesting🤟
He is like if Bert from mary poppins had a metal phase
super legit
mind just blown....not everyday when you see something cool but not in a stupid hipster way lol best way i can describe it. def dig what he was saying about his music it self...
nice lullaby ;-)
what song is this??
Girolamo Carollo not on any current albums, probably going to be released soon tho. he's going to start playing new material at concerts
it's the title-track fro the upcoming album, Beastland
Song is the title track off his new album "Beastland"
Cool
This guy will probably be making the music for the next DOOM game. Now that Mick is out.
Want something done right, do it yourself.
yo, I ain't gay.
but if I was, it would be for this dude.
Is that because he said his instrument has a lot of girth????? @3:05
name of song?
yep.....someone know the name?
it is Beastland, title track for his upcoming album! just listened to a preview on Amazon
He is the emile reynaud of industrial metal?
So heavy
This dude has an interesting mind
reznor + quintron ==
True artist saw him open for tool
whats the name of the song?
beastland
@@h4teher0 thank you!
Albern.
interesting
Elektron Fitness studio
this guys cool but i have only found 1 actual track / music video of him every thing else is just him dropping by studios / talking about his controllers.
Sillyzombie666 Go to Spotify. His music is all there. DO NOT LISTEN WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING! Aggressiveness will follow. Amazing music.
8 years after and elektron is still doing the same tiny machines and the same generic sequencer, don’t you realize that there is a complete universe beyond a midi sequencer? Elektron doesn’t deserve this kind of ideas and creativity
hmmmmm.....
Warhammer 40K now
Not sure about this
This is what it looks like when americans do industrial.
Link to song or name?
Que groseria .... demasiado bien Tristan Shone.
Do. Dont explain at length/ Cjros pm tjepthe Crlss
