Great music survives everything ;-)
That's such a good idea with this old equipment. And you can see that
the guy tried hard not to laugh. And surprisingly, the arrangement
sounds great. Hilarious.

This is way more pleasant than the kazoo version by famous children's

This guy's other video where he covers Clowncore's 'Computers' on
computers is one of the most impressive, incredibly niche things I've
ever seen on YouTube. He's a serious talent.

Ha! I almost posted this here but I thought maybe I was posting too
many music videos on HN.
I am part of the LOAD "*", 8, 1 generation, and this is really freaking
cool.
One of the funniest things in the video is the variety of neck tie
configurations, one for each part.

For anyone wanting to know, the keyboard layout is that of a chromatic
button accordian [0] [1].
I guess there's a C64 "executable" that he's made available but no
source so I don't know what the exact keymapping is. I did find a few
different resources that show the layout in action [2] [3].

Listened to this exact video this morning when it was among the newest
videos in my YouTube subscriptions. I've had it stuck in my head since
then.

If I recall correctly, Boléro (the music piece) has a special meaning
in the very early Swedish hacker scene, often used as a sort-of
in-joke.

Itâs probably not a coincidence that the climax starts at 13:37.

According to a possibly apocryphal story from the premiere performance,
a woman was heard shouting that Ravel was mad. When told about this,
Ravel is said to have remarked that she had understood the piece.
