I'm telling my mum on you.

I love it. I play at least that many instruments, and I've often daydreamed about putting together a tape like this guy. Call me a control freak.

 

Which reminds me. Joke from recent "Prairie Home Companion Joke Show":

 

Roy Blount, Jr.: Knock knock

Garrison Keillor: Who's there?

Roy Blount, Jr.: Control freak. Now you say "Control freak who?"

Its a Melodica not a melodeon

T'is, but only 'cos it's made by Hohner and Melodica is their trade-mark, so other firms who make melodicas have to call them by different names (usually starting with Melod...) like Melody Horn, Melodyman or (yes) even Melodeon.

It's melodeon not melodion

Melodeon has become the accepted spelling, but formerly melodion was just as common in published sources such as tutor books, catalogues etc. Indeed the latter spelling could be considered advantageous, to differentiate between the button accordion and the older American reed-organ called a melodeon...

Did you notice his playing technique (fingering) on the Melodica?

He uses his RH for the naturals, and the LH crawls up the other side for the sharps and flats. Sort of like playing EC.

I have a Melodica with a more normal piano-type keyboard, so probably couldn't finger it like this. But I thought that was cool -- and more relevant to this Net, being like EC.

 

Anyway, his multi-tracking editing is awesome. --Mike K.
