- RajT88 3y agoWorth posting how I first learned of this magical instrument: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=jfuSEdOdNz0 https://yewtu.be/watch?v=jfuSEdOdNz0
- meepmorp 3y agoI did not expect the klezmer krossover at the end. True genius.
- airstrike 3y agoWhat an epic video LMAO thanks for sharing
- 1letterunixname 3y ago> "I call this trick 'The Sneaky Douchebag'" LMAO. Unexpected content: music, singing, puppetry, comedy, physical comedy, soldering, and yiddish!
- JKCalhoun 3y agoJenny Lewis and the Watson Twins performing "You Are What You Love" (one of the Watson twins has an Omnichord on her lap): https://youtu.be/Sjj80FUj_3Y?si=d2KnGLxzaBB3f-1n&t=62 https://youtu.be/Sjj80FUj_3Y?si=d2KnGLxzaBB3f-1n&t=62
- jd3 3y agoSpeaking of Saddle Creek sound, I first discovered the omnichord after seeing Conor Oberst use one to play a classic Bright Eyes song at an intimate venue in the mountains near Woodstock, NY
- lbourdages 3y agoThat was great! Thank you!
- jmrm 3y agoProbably we follow the same subreddits ;-)
- jmcphers 3y agoI first saw an Omnichord in Phox's amazing "Slow Motion". I had to look it up immediately. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUn3rZ2g5pA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUn3rZ2g5pA (It comes in at around 3:21 if you're impatient.)
- nxobject 3y agoAs an aside: the Omnichord series is being revived with a new anniversary model – I believe the model's launch date is set for December.

- honkycat 3y agoFamously "Clint Eastwood" - Gorillaz was from a preset called "Rock 1" on the omnichord
- larschdk 3y agoAlbarn showing it: https://youtube.com/shorts/Wn0NtSNeQEQ?si=alHRDiTrEjMhTn4K https://youtube.com/shorts/Wn0NtSNeQEQ?si=alHRDiTrEjMhTn4K
- Waterluvian 3y agoI feel compelled to share this song played on an Omnichord and a telephone. I saw this video one night and it lit up a part of my brain that stored how the 90s felt. This may be the anthem of the dead mall. https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMj7Jg9Ty/ https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMj7Jg9Ty/
- trbleclef 3y agoHa! Always surprised by what shows up on HN. I am sitting near two aging Omnichords right now.
- smitty1e 3y agoAbout that sport coat...
- itronitron 3y agoSomeone needs to record an Omnichord set of Christmas melodies as the soundtrack, or backing music, for the movie Alien.
- RajT88 3y agoOverall, there needs to be more fan re-soundtracking/re-cuts of classic movies. I thought for sure the whole "Wizard of Oz / Dark Side of the Moon" thing would lead to such a scene, but it failed to materialize.
