So all i need is a Mini Moog, a Fender Rhodes and incredible talent lol
Big emphasis on the talent part
So you're saying that all I need is a few grand and decades of practice in addition to God given skill? Piece of cake!
@@Baghdadbatterymusic more like 2 years tbh
Keyscape, Poly D, jazz piano lessons- and you’re sorted
@Eli Gray After quantizing it you can't really call it "playing it" anymore. Composing perhaps, but not playing.
Can we just have an hour-long video of you freestyling on these two? Would be divine.
yessss please !!
seriously..
I second that!
Pleaaaseee!!!!
please! I wanna sit on my balcony, with a splif and get lost to your sound,..
It's a deeply humbling experience to click on a video and the guy's random noodling is better than the entirety of your life's creative output.
Trust me, noodling randomly is great way to sound nice
His noodling is a result of his entire life’s creative output
It IS Jamiroquai's bass player and they're godly
It’s not random noodling, it’s very purposeful noodling from an artist who who possesses great artistry and has work to hone and refine his artistry.
The moog patch as you go lower in the scale reminds me a lot of the moog bass sounds on a lot of the old Stevie wonder albums in the 70s. It would be so cool to see more moog sound design lessons
Agreed, it really takes me back to 70s Stevie this moog sound
Exactly what I thought the 1st time he went down into the bass.
bad luck to talk..
Does anyone know of a vst that can immolate this synth sound?
@@beatsbybravo3712 The legend by synapse audio....only 99 bucks.
Made some coffee. Powered up the Nord Stage, selected a Rhodes model and started adding effects and amp sim until I had a nice warm sound. Opened the Moog Mini app on my ipad and twiddled some knobs to get that creamy lead sound. Played some lush m11 chords. A nice way to spend a saturday morning. Thanks Matt!
I would like to know what settings you used on Moog mini app. I am sure I copied the settings correctly, but it just doesn’t sound the same.
@@modalmixture I was lacking reverb. Once I added that it, it sounded better, but not the same. I guess a £10 app, which is a digital recreation, is never going to sound as good as the original analogue instrument.
Hello, I have Model D on my iPad, and I’ve got quite different sound. Filter and envelope section must be very different from the patch seen on the video.
@@voytecgrobor7576 You probably have to experiment and tweak it a little, and also check your effects, but I got it to sound extremely close to Matt's sound.
@@modalmixture Thanks! it's good sounding app, but needs more tweaking
This how to could have easily just been “have amazing gear and be an amazing player” but you broke everything down wonderfully for anyone who may not have the gear/experience and passed on a lot of knowledge. Thumbs up!
There’s a Moog app that sounds crazy good, if that helps...
@@ryanryan2805 it’s not about the gear. I have a Minimoog and I don’t sound nothing like this lol.
miles above any videos i've seen on youtube, imagine this guy playing keys in your band. He's a genius in his own way. hands down.
literally
He is
I like Herbie Hancock, but Matt is right up their with his playing IMO.
moog + electric piano 😍
It doesn't get any better than this
And I love the way you explain the sound+music combo. There's a lot of people recommending strict formula that don't take into account the response of the instrument. And both moog and Rhodes are very 'organic' instruments
Amen to that. A killer combo
Yeah, this is a great combo!
If you shut your eyes, for a few seconds you are in heaven.
Astral Traveling! 👍🤓🛸🌌
If you hold your breath for a few minutes too.
@@Asyouwere you won't stop breathing after you faint lol
@@Lonech Damn it was just a joke man
Lonnie Liston smith 😍😍😍
so Lonnie . Dreamy and lovely
I am crying at how beautiful it sounds like. 12 hour version of you playing the same chords
I came across a nice little idea, especially for VST-users - in case the tremolo/phaser hits too hard all the time, get yourself control over the dry-wet-signal and make the trem come and go while holding on to that sustain pedal. Thanks for inspiring me so much Matt!
A good programmable env-follower or a dynamic EQ or a MB limiter would do too. Try Melda stuff, you won't find more programmable control elsewhere. Cheers
This is incredible to watch a master at work, break down the sounds of the 70's. Thank you!
Right. Its about time someone showed the secrets lol
“Let the sound do the work." Yummy. 🤙🏼
Amazing
Damn...17:53 really got to me. A great song but, in the hands of Matt Johnson, it's true soulfulness is revealed...
A beautiful tribute to the late and great Lyle Mays.
I really appreciate how you just sound like a guy that I'd enjoy hanging out with.
There is a TON of demo vids on gear and all.... but majority of them have bad music when they test the equipment. But this here, is perfect! Liked and Subscribed
love how the sound bounces all around my head
Definitely got some “Trouble Man” vibes at 15:20! Love it!
That was a damn artistic masterclass!
These videos are SO wonderful. You’re just as skilled at teaching, and pacing your videos as you are a musician! Thanks for putting your time and passion in these vids!
That Moog lead sound is like a holy grail for me. Thank you Matt for lifting the curtain on that. I feel like you answered my personal request
Plugged my phone into my 83 Onkyo receiver and listened to this video on my 1995 Pioneer Speakers. Ear candy at it's finest
Dude, this is amazing. You got the sound really perfect. Love the arpeggios and the synth glides. 👍
Ever since I first heard Jamiroquai, I've looked for that minimoog lead sound, I didn't know what it was for so long. So glad now I know, thank you!! btw saw jamiroquai live in 2013, So good!!
owwwwwww that Moog sounds soooooo beautiful!
this is a great combination of instruments , they fit perfectly , thanks for the video
Maaan that rhodes sounds so sweet! Can listen to it forever. :)
So good to hear someone slightly reserved with vast knowledge than the usual over confident type with very little to actually say.. love this channel...👍
The Bob Ross of keys. That term gets thrown about a lot, but Matt and Bob share a similar vibe, of letting the art/music itself do most of the teaching. Both chill af too, which really helps get into the headspace of being ready to absorb knowledge.
@@boswell255 Completely agree! He's not cramming in as much as possible, but giving the listener time to hear it and let it sink in, as you say.
Thank you so much for explaining the chords you use and how you combine them. It's like a magician giving away his tricks. I'm not a real synth guy, but really into harmonics, and this was very clarifying to me. Amazing what skills you've developed as an autodidact (if I remember correctly), and how you generously share it with us. All the best, sir!
Damn, this is so sweet
I wish I'll be able to play like this someday
Matt, I feel like I learn so much from your videos and your down-to-earthness just make it such a joy. You are a huge inspiration to me! Thank you!
I had to pump this via bluetooth through my hi-fi. Fender Rhodes is the coolest music instrument sound in the world and you really understand it Matt.
Another quality demonstration Matt! Love it, and yes please more EFX info please :)
So much inspiration and happiness you are giving!! Just incredible how you continue to deliver, again and again. Absolute stunning!
Honestly man, these lessons are amazing. Thank U so much
This sounds absolutely amazing. Very Lonnie Liston Smith indeed. Thanks Matt for the good vibes!
Thank you for making this video's Matt!
Very inspiring! i always start playing the keys here after watchting you video's ;)
greetings from The Netherlands!
Hey Matt, absolutely loving the content you're putting out on your channel lately.. Keep up the great work!
Matt, I found your channel a few weeks ago and I have to thank you for spending your precious time teaching us as you do!
A little note: my drumset is in the same room where my computer is, tonight I left the strings on the snare tightened, and I absolutely loved how they resonated with the synths!
Thank you for all the music, Matt ❤
I love how simply and directly you explain what you're doing, and immediately follow your explanation with demonstration. For example, the bit with the minor 9ths as well as the F minor arpeggio and just randomly moving about with it. All the information you're giving is so immediately useful and practical, and you explain in a way I've never really considered before. Excellent video, you've got yourself a new sub :)
Awesome, Matt. I‘m melting at these sounds and harmonies.
You can tell Matt would be so amazing to jam with - so many bits of wisdom! Flow, nailed it. Inspiring
8:00 that pun is excusable. made me grin. thank you Matt!
Way over my head for the time being but the take away: Learn the 7th and 9th chords and inversions, skip the 3rd in the left hand, play around with major 7th and see what happens when I add a 6th. No crazy progressions, just start with 6-2-5-1 G-C-F-Bb and move up and down the keyboard. Thanks a lot!
Sounds like it's not exactly over your head though.. you sound like you have a good grip of these concepts.
@@LawrinMaxwellsmpc500 This is the positivity we like to see in the comments section
Sounds like it’s not over your head, just not in your hands yet! But now you know what to practice, you can have it in no time!
@@ianflurrance8438 Thanks. I guess that's it, sit down at the keys and put the time in. It's quite inspiring though, how Matt can make a few chords sound so good.
A dream to learn from this Master.
Just sounds so good!
I love your playing but I mostly love your humility and open-heartedness to share your knowledge and skills, which is exemplary.
Amazing! I love this vibe! Lonnie Liston Smith!!!
Dude, I'd never heard of Lonnie Liston Smith before I read your comment, but went and checked him out. The first song I clicked was Expansions. Wow! Thank you.
I'm going to listen to.
That title 'Expansion' reminds me 'Contracts' by Jasper Van't Hof (great other e-piano man) and Archie Shepp in the live album MamaRose, I thing they both express about human baby life, it may be quite moving (long intro)
@@diamonddavemc Yeah man! my pleasure, oh to hear expansions for the first time again! When Matt puts that phaser on, pure Lonnie vibes!!!
Lonnie! And if Liston is out, you can call the doctor 👍😁
Beautiful stuff as always. Dream gear right here.
get keyscape vst pluggin on your daw . it has all these synths and classic textures on it .
The feelings that you evoke with your music here are so dreamy, beautiful and wonderful!
I love how u give tips on how to do anything and u sound really knowledgeable
Matt, any chance you could record the whole album of this dreamy, jazz 1970s Rhodes music? I'm dead honest. It's the most relaxing, mood lifting music ever. 😍😍
I've always wanted a Rhodes, but I ain't got no money, and no money cares for me!
Love hearing you improvise, thanks for sharing this!
My face is now stuck in a permanent grimace from that intro
A Reface CP MIDI'd to a bigger board is a great affordable Rhodes solution too.
Can confirm. The CP is a powerful little board with HUGE sound! Love mine.
Why do I feel emotions hearing this? So strange, normal music doesn’t do this me, the chords and sounds are hitting different!
Such a beautiful combo right there! Love the sound of the Rhodes thru a phaser. Lonnie Liston Smith type keys.
Wonderful chords straight in the intro! Thank you so much for your videos
Minimoog price on Reverb just took a nice +1000$ because of you.... ;)
Not to worry, there's the $600 Poly D.
I don't even know how to play piano but this is awesome
brilliant again, that sounded soo sweet
OmG, this man chilled my heart this time too!
omg, "before you go" by Lyle Mays (may he rest in peace)
I checked the comments before posting myself to see if someone else had noticed. Good catch
Thank you! That would have bugged me. It wasn't coming to me right away.
@@sasarasa88 Same here :) !!
There’s an official iOS Model D app out there too that people might be able to try some of this out on.
geez it's like you read my mind, the perfect video demonstration of this sound. Thank you for the insight of your playing and tones!
I love both of this instruments and this video encapsulates why perfectly.
Made me feel high. I mean... even more.
8:30 I have to say, the auto-pan is making me feel queazy!
that Moog....sometimes i hear a vague Vangelis
Man I so dig your videos . Your music and sounds are sugar to the ears and to the heart. Invaluable and unique on you tube!
"Flowing, that's all there is to it" - Matt Johnson - Great video! love that Moog sound!
Anybody ever told you you look extremely similar to the actor that plays Johnny Lawrence in Cobra Kai?
Also great video and incredible vibes
That’s not “a vintage vibe” you’re adding that’s “the dankness”
my god I'm so proud to be born in the 70s. definitely the best time for music ❤ Matt you rock!!!!
A mini moog is a bucket list synth for me. Love the content you've been releasing.
A tutorial on effects for keys would be great when you can get round to it!!
Can someone please help me to recreate the lead patch on the Behringer Model D? I can't get it to sound the same...
I got quite close, I guess, but not there yet. Seems all the Boog reviews showing how close it is to minimoog lied to us.
Image with a patch here:
drive.google.com/file/d/1ZtxXYVhg6KQXVZB3qhXuje5PJ4LWEEPh/view?usp=sharing
Also, I discovered that adding some EXT IN VOLUME makes bit closer. Basically I configured the oscilators and tweaked Contour and Emphasis.
@@junostrecords4036 thank you! I'm going to try this!
@@junostrecords4036 do you think filter decay and loud decay should be switched to on?
@@daangraanbanaan no, it's off
Jamiroquai, when I first hear and saw that video. ❤❤ I was over a friend's house and no one knew what I was talking about. I kept saying it was a sound I loved and all I could say was Jamariquai and talk about a guy in a top hat walking on a moving floor. They all looked at me as if I was crazy. I didn't care, I found what I was looking for. Lol😅
On top of the performance and sweet gear you've got some really great mixing tips. Compressing time based effects is really cool sounding and I haven't seen many people do it. I love your process and mindset behind the order of different devices in the signal chain.
For anyone with a Korg Minilogue XD, here's a pic with my patch settings to sound like the MiniMoog. If you can get closer, let me know how. Cheers!

Hold my beer... I’m going to make another baby with my wife. I’ll be right back
If you can hold your own beer, I'll be impressed.
@@NineHellHeaven roger that... I’m going back in with beer in hand
Quel son ! C'est incroyable ! Quel plaisir d'entendre ça. Merci.
Just beautiful Man - much appreciated from NZ - damn fine chops with those most fine axes Sir!
"How To Sound Black" should be the title...just sayin...
That's groovy vibes make my day, Matt!! As usual, many thanks for sharing your talent!
This channel is one of the primary sources of my keyboard inspiration, thank you.
Thank you Matt! As an ardent analogue man I have really enjoyed subscribing to your gift to music related creatives. And your have such a warm tone and delivery so thank you - much appreciated
Dude- your playing is soooo satisfying. Love your artistry and this awesome channel.
This is and the vintage vibe are my favorite videos of yours. Reminds me of library music.
This sound takes me far away!!!!! Love it 🥰
Wow I loved the part of the sweatspot. You just gave us a super tip there, for playing with emotions. Direct from the mouth of an amazing player. I feel you so close now with these videos, I never imagined that the keyboardist of Jamiroquai would teach me something like this. It’s just great in a bizarre way! Thanks for doing these videos!
Thanks Matt. every time I watch a video from you I turn on my synths blow off the dust and just want to make sound for the rest of the day.
Matt you’re a cool guy, thank you for all you show us on your own accord.
Thanks Matt, I've been hunting this sound for over 10 years! 🙏
I have watched this twice and learnt something new both times nice one Matt really eye opening information thanks brother👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Hi Matt, as always this video is a great source of inspiration thanks to your great talent of playing and improvising good music!
And your tribute to Lyle Mays (Before you go song) is another proof that the greatest musicians love and inspire each other. I'm happy to hear you playing Lyle. He was such a great artist! I love every musician who keep his memory alive. I've been listening to Lyle's music for about 40 years and will continue to do so for my entire life.
the unbridled realization of talent with skill on display before us is as much an awe as the music itself.
Over the past nine months, since this video came out, I have been trying to get a Moog sound from a Boog. This video is life changing, excellent, amazing. I obtained a 1965 Crossfield Reel to Reel tube (valve) recorder. The signal was sent into the reel to reel, from there I also used a Roland RE-20 Space Echo (floor model) and a Boss CS-3 Compressor, a dbx120 Dynamic Subharmonic Synthesizer. I ended up buying a Moog Subsequent 37, but not before making very beautiful sounds with the Boog. I was never able to get the sounds in this video but came so close at times it was hard to tell the difference. Thank you Matt Johnson. Thank you.
You're welcome!
Incredible! Will give these settings a go on my fender rhodes and minimoog. Love the distortion on the rhodes
