What separates Andrew from other youtubers, "so I read the entire manual ..."
*from other people
RTFM!
Lmao right, I look up tutorials on TH-cam and use google combined with just playing around with stuff to learn.
Obviously he didn’t look to far into how to use it. It’s a pretty straightforward groovebox.
@@ellorenzo9389 correct!
„What are going to produce today?”
“I don’t know.”
“Because your creativity is lacking?”
“No, because my synth is unpredictable.” 😂
brayzbeats. I
I imagine half the fun is plugging it in and letting it go crazy, and when that craziness has done its job you move the wires around, turn some knobs and let it do more crazy.
I think he missed the point of this synth by writing a poo song.
This is great for movies
The TB303 sequencer is like this. Very difficult and annoying to enter stuff accurately, but random button mashing creates awsome acid basslines.
It's a bit redundant to say at this point but I just wanted to let you know that since you've dropped the schedule and just made whatever you want at your own pace, all your content has been fantastic and incredibly inspiring.
*OuTbREaK* I wholeheartedly agree.
I concur fully, my good man.

And it makes me scream when he uploads

I feel exactly the same way
Jordany Gonzalez Bahena 🅱🅰GIN🅰
Mescaline was Hunter S Thompson's favorite synth as well!
i was wondering if it was named after what the creator was on when he designed it
Mine too! 👍🏻
Its the right word for the sound though. It was somewhere around Barstow...
It's the only way to fly. soundcloud.com/stephenkarnas/the-only-way-to-fly
That joke would've worked except mescaline is natural - not synthetic - It is usually harvested from cacti like peyote and san pedro IIRC. Well, I guess if we were splitting hairs it would be considered SEMI-synthetic... but y'know, just felt like it was *my* turn to be "that guy" for once lol
the song you made from this device is stunning
Yeah! He should properly release it somewhere, I wanna listen to this all day XD
This is like a sound designer’s wet dream. Bro can I have that when you’re done?
haha it’s the office guy
haha its the office guy

Omg 😂 never seen three of the same reply in a row!
Me too
Oh how I love this series

Quote from Abraham Lincoln himself
Andrew that final product is DOPE. What a MELODY!!! Such a great groove in your vocal phrasing during the verses too.
The music community on TH-cam is such a small world. It’s like all the music youtubers watch eachother!
ok I loved that song at the end holy moly
That song has some REALLY cool chords! As a songwrite myself, this inspired me, so thank you for that!
Kurtsiecolferite S Right? That is exactly what I said to myself.
No other content inspires me so much.
this is the most amazing musical series ive seen i love it
imagine pink floyd having this
Would be amazing
Ili Oliver Dragojevic
Broooo!!
Well.. they probably dont like it, Pink Floyd (minus Waters) has made a couple albums in the 2000s and 2010s so they could've use this if they wanted to... They use better synths and similar sounding equipment already.
@@Noah-wv4td I don't think even Syd, the most druggie member, used mescaline
Yep!! This synth is the BEST!!! I have one as well, and though I'm a guitar person, it's one of my fave things EVER! Thanks so much for this video--and the rad tuneage!!
daleturner hey, you get the first comment award
Wow! I've never won anything before! It seems my time has come, lol!
If you ever wanted to sell your mescaline plz let me know, thanks!
0:57 gives Derezzed from Tron: Legacy vibes
I was thinking about Daft Punk too
Good movie
I was gonna say it’s a Tron machine lmao
Reminds me of gessafelstein with a touch of blade runner
Straight outta The Matrix
WEIRD GEAR'S BACK !!!! get in !!!! Hell yes
Hey Andrew I know your probably not going to see this but I love your videos. Their can dive deep into music theory and recording but also have comedy and are weird and wacky. Your videos make me happy when I get sad and put a smile on my face. I just wanted to thank you for helping me through rough times and making me laugh. Your awesome
That intro alone is worth several Oscars.
You consistently impress me with your artistry. Also, loving the weird gear series. I always look forward to your uploads. Keep being awesome 😊
sounds like if radiohead made funky futuristic pop music. i would kill for an album in this style!
This sounds like something from the Transistor soundtrack. In other words, I absolutely love it 😊
Great Song Andrew, love your Weird gear segments and as someone mentioned, since you’re not on a schedule, your videos are even better than before!!! Love the one in Berlin, that was great, and to see how you put together Weird Gear - stinger/bug. Was really fun!!!! You are so much fun to watch, love your energy, just have one cup of Java a day!
really love your experimental stuff!!!!!!!!!!! Not quite into your poppier vibes but that pocket you just found for your voice is perfect!!!!
I love in the middle where Andrews like “it says you build a circuit with these and provides no further instruction”
WEIRD GE...
Buys a weird unpredictable synth. Then uses it to produce the best song of 2018. Andrew is freakishly talented.
I can't even pinpoint what genre it'd be; ambient pop? Experimental electronic? Techno jazzy... Thingy?
But it's good enough for me to not write it off as "just pop"
And by good i mean nit so repetitive, simple and samey as a billion othee songs to either make me go to sleep or want me to pull my ears out.
I've been waiting for this :D
In a few more episodes I would really love to see you make a track including all the weird gear you accumulated.
Great channel, love the weird stuff and the tracks made with it!
Love. This. Series.
"provides no further explanation"
" *W E I R D* "
That song at the end is one of the best I've ever heard from you! Great job.
I have been following your channel for a while now mainly for your excellent gear reviews but damn you can compose great music too (and what a singing voice!) Big love for all you do from the antipodes.
Loving these instruments like the PO series and other circuit board ments!
This is rad!
I really like the sounds you got out of this thing. The dark industrial tones really seem quite different to a lot of stuff you use, but you still crafted a really sublime song out of them in the end.
Top notch editing. Top notch content! Weird gear series quality standard is so high ^^
I know nothing about synths but you make me want to get one
Wow the song you did at the end of this was really good!! It sounded very reminiscent of a modern Radiohead track except (sorry Thom) I enjoyed it quite a bit more.
I love this series so much. Thanks for another awesome video!
I am addicted to your channel, you are becoming one of my favorite youtubers.
pretty sure that this was created by a blade runner's replicant :"do robots dream of mescaline synth"? :)
WHAT. THIS IS MAGIC!!!! AHHHHH.
Now that's truly some *wEIRd GeAR*
The song at end was honestly amazing, i love this series a lot. Keep it up!
Love my Folktek Mescaline, got one of the last copper models available in the first batch. This demo is the best one I've ever seen. Thanks, Andrew.
that song at the end is eargasmic on a level unprecedented by man
If any of you like the track at 6:01 , you might also like:
Jan Jelinek - Loop Finding Jazz Records
Gramm - Personal Rock
Thanks a lot, never heard of these two but checked them out and love it!
wow this is the best your voice has ever sounded, really enjoy the song. Great video
The editing on this video was hilarious. Well done!
Andrew is the best human ever.
Such Will I agree
That is definitely some weird gear. It give me anxiety just looking at it. Some really awesome sounds coming out of that though!
wow the track you made was AMAZING like seriously the best of Andrew Huang i think
Epic epic epic epic epic epic. Please only do this series forever and ever. This was an audio treat to be sure. Yes.
Andrew always makes these sick accidental prog songs
How did you learn to make such engaging videos? The filming and production is just amazing.
I freaking LOVE the song at the end. Andrew, you're a total genius.
Perfect! I just left for a lunch break and this comes out as soon as I sit down 🤘
*_Awesome_*
Dude you are awesome
I watched the whole ad before the video because you deserve it!!!!
This is the best song by you! I love it!!!
I'm gonna compare the songs at the end of these weird gear episodes to different artists. So last month was Death Grips and this month is Radiohead post Kid A
That last song was amazing!
Oh man! What a weird machine and what a great song !!!! Thanks for sharing Andrew! ;-) It's really appreciated...
Now normally, I appreciate all of your music for the creativity and musicianship, but not all of it is for me. That track at the end though, that's something else. Very, very nice work Andrew.
on the black panel you can build some filters with the resistors and capacitors
I think you can find some info online, it is basic electricity
bastien pabiot or really anything. Fuzz pedal, phasers.
Andrew would you consider making a track with VCV? its a virtual modular synth, its open source so it would be very intresting to see what you could make using it. cheers and keep up the great work!
That song at the end has me feeling a type of way. Good stuff, man!
Your creativity is infectious, and helping my own vocal expansions. Thank you for spontaneous improvisation ideas.
Song at the end is incredible. Reminds me of Radiohead with a bit more funk and pop.
this thing is absolutely crazy !!!!
That song at the end was so sick I actually gasped when you did the hard cut to your outro cuz I was grooving so hard
I am so binge watching your channel. You are in another level. I think we all feel like baby next you.
This shirt. I need it! Anyone knows where to get it? (The colored creamy liquid one ofc)
3:10 Ah yes, the 'instant Silent Hill' effect xD also 6:50 really sounded like you sampled Michael Rosen.
LOVE what you do. very special. thanks
Woah that vocal bass line in the last song is sick. I'm assuming you just sang it and pitch shifted it. It worked really great doubled with the bass guitar. Keep up the good work man!
What's the chord on "feel the words falling"??? Please!!!!!!
Jakob D parece ser um G#°
Serious question... is it really frustrating to work with an instrument that is so unpredictable and you can't just get right to what you want? Or do you just have to deal with surrendering yourself over to trial and error until something sounds good? The latter is usually difficult for me anyway.
It makes you press record every time, because next time you turn it on it may not behave quite the same.
The unpredictability is a strength, and a weakness. Mostly a strength IMHO.
Andrew, I think I found my hero, I'm probably gonna cry in a few minutes. YOU ARE SO GREAT
Fantastic track, Andrew. Wonderful atmosphere 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That first patch is like a Justice song.
Virtual Blaze or Daft Punk
Where's Andrew? I visited his channel to check out if I missed his new videos but he hadn't uploaded for two weeks. Hope he's ok!
Aaahh! The intro you made in may is awesome! I need to try something wEiRd like that! Thanks for the inspiration
I watched a few vids finally I had to subscribe but I've heard some of your music before and I like the mellow sounds and how it's put together so till next vid godbless
The greatest one man band. Hands down.
E.T. love making music
Great vid! This one is really tempting!
I hope you're doing well, Andrew! Can't wait to see the progress on your new studio!
Almost sounds like an intro to a TesseracT song lol
You could make a Fuzz Face in the middle… its like 9 components!
i really liked the song you did in the end :), i'm glad i've subscribed to this channel! very interesting stuff going on here :) (y)
Holy crap, Andrew’s got pipes! Digging that song; thanks for the vid!
Sounds alot like the bastl kastle
The song at the end reminded me of the last Radiohead album
Me too
It's pretty much a Dream Pop song.
While I’m early, just want to say you’ve inspired me to try our challenges with music and got me to continue my channel, thanks.
dude... you are so good with recording stuff. i've been trying in the last few months just with my guitar... and its SO hard and frustrating. Thank u for the inspiration.
You should cover Rings Of Saturn with it.
3:18 sounds like Forbidden Planet.
I was wondering where the next episode might be. This is Great!
You make all the nerdy stuff I love entertaining.
