Beatbox - Felix Zenger

KampaiTube's Review

What can we say? This video is all about beatboxing, so the audio has to be sharp but the best part is, the visual is really impressive. Nice balance of brightness and contrast along with nice angles of the camera. It'll be wicked to watch this on HD. ;O

Yes, you might ask, why Felix? For those who are into beatboxing, you'd probably seen many more awesome beatboxing videos. One example we can give to you is "Roxxorloops", if you would like to see what we meant by more awesome skills, do have a look at it.

Thing is, Roxxorloops only have 6.7 million views compared to Felix, who has 12 million views, almost twice the amount.

So the reason we chose to feature Felix's video over Roxxorloops, which is also why 6 more million people chose to watch Felix's video over Roxxoloops is this - The professionalism, style and entertainment value of beatboxing are well presented. ;)



"Felix Zenger" is from Helsinki, Finland. He was awarded with the Artist of the Year honors at the 2007 Funk Awards and performed in the Eurovision Song Contest semifinals opening act for a crowd of 150 million people which was broadcast worldwide.

Oh and have we mentioned? Felix's disc scratching imitation is wicked, sounds exactly like the real thing. ;)

Oren Lavie : Morning Elegance

Lyrics

Sun been down for days
A pretty flower in a vase
A slipper by the fireplace
A cello lying in its case

Soon she's down the stairs
Her morning elegance she wears
The sound of water makes her dream
Awoken by a cloud of steam
She pours a daydream in a cup
A spoon of sugar sweetens up

And She fights for her life
As she puts on her coat
And she fights for her life on the train
She looks at the rain
As it pours
And she fights for her life
As she goes in a store
With a thought she has caught
By a thread
She pays for the bread
And She goes...
Nobody knows

Sun been down for days
A winter melody she plays
The thunder makes her contemplate
She hears a noise behind the gate
Perhaps a letter with a dove
Perhaps a stranger she could love

And She fights for her life
As she puts on her coat
And she fights for her life on the train
She looks at the rain
As it pours
And she fights for her life
As she goes in a store
With a thought she has caught
By a thread
She pays for the bread
And She goes...
Nobody knows

And She fights for her life
As she puts on her coat
And she fights for her life on the train
She looks at the rain
As it pours
And she fights for her life
Where people are pleasently strange
And counting the change
And She goes...
Nobody knows

I know, you're in love with this video. Crystal clear audio and clear visuals for you to just soak yourself into this entire piece of art and beauty. ;) You just wanna singalong. *lyrics is just above!*

Stop motion. This truly defines the art, elegance, creativity and beauty of stop motion. By using hundreds or even thousands of captured images by the camera and compile them together gracefully, this fantastic piece of work will be formed.

The lyrics are pretty subjective but still, we can somehow comprehend the intention of this music video through our own unique perspectives. The flow of the entire music video just got us captivated and wanting for more. Simply amazing. ;)

"Morning Elegance" track was so captivating that even Chevrolet, decided to use his track for their US TV commercial.



"Oren Lavie", an Israeli who produced this wonderful piece of work has other productions too. He decided to name his label company as "QuarterPastWonderful". We linked his biography to his MySpace page because his YouTube channel has only this music video and doesn't say much about him. Do drop by his MySpace if you wish to know more about him!

KampaiTube's Review

With 59 million views, we believe some of you might have already watched this , but KampaiTube post the best videos so how can we miss this out? ;)

Its a low budget production but very entertaining. We managed to take down the lyrics with ease ;)

Harry Potter and friends, a hit around the globe. Haters or lovers, we believe, all would enjoy this production. They managed to make a really good parody of the characters in a "Punch & Judy" like performance, which gave us a good laugh. Especially when naked Dumbledore comes out when Snape and Harry was fighting with each other :P

The singalong concept was successful as it rang in our heads, for quite awhile ;O




"NeilCicierega", the person who made this production, "Potter Puppet Pals", along with his crew. He has other productions too and a Vlog in YouTube, do have a look if you want to know more about him in details. We personally like the "The Vortex" and "Wizard Angst" from Potter Puppet Pals too.

Voldemort : Voldemort, voldemort, oh volde volde volde voldemort!

Coke Babies

KampaiTube's Review

The video quality is amazing and the audio is definitely without an issue, we watched this whole video with a breeze :)

'Wow' that's the first thing we went when we got hold of this video on Youtube, we were impressed with the concept of how 'Coke spaceships' came around on our earth phenomenally and the world was captivated by it. People with their household cameras, 'BCC' (which is obviously BBC) and 'NNN' (which is obviously CNN) even came around with helicopters to catch what is this 'Coke spaceship' all about. In the video they even said 'it essentially reverse the effects of global warming' if only that was true!

The level of production is definitely high especially on the CG (computer graphics) where they managed to blend the 'Coke spaceships' SO well with the background scene .The scripting and the really cute idea where 'Coke spaceships' mated and had little cute coke babies was brilliant! This whole production level was so good that we were made believe that this was from Coke company itself!




"Purchase Brothers" are individuals that made several other very good videos too , one which is worth watching for is the 'Escape from city 17'. The only reason we picked this video over that one is because who doesn't know coke or love coke? ;)

Pachebel Rant

FullScript

Im going to leave you with this little story, its about this piece of music,

its a very popular peace of music I'm sure you all know, im gonna sing the melody right now,

pa da da da, da da da da da da da da da, yeah Pachelbel's Cannon in D, its a big hit in the classical

world and I know this because I'm a geek. I know what you're thinking, its like Rob you cant be a

geek, you play the guitar, you're so cool. Okay you weren't thinking that but i was. Ermm

well I haven't always been this cool because I haven't always play guitar, I started out

on a cello. Yeah a cello is a wonderful beautiful instrument, its cool to be an adult that

plays a cello , being a kid that plays a cello sucked, cause there is no way to be cool when

the instrument is larger than you. When you walk to school with a cello you're like a

wounded gazelle from a Serengeti, the bully smell you coming from a mile away, "oo i dont know

what that thing is but i know im gona break it!" but i put up with all of this abuse because i love

the music that we play, i love everything we play in an orchestra, except this : i hate

Pachelbel's Cannon in D with a passion. I hated so much because the cello part is the worst

cello part ever written in the history of cello parts. its 8 quarter notes that we repeat

over and over again they are as follows : D, A, B, Fsharp, G, D, G, A , and that's all we

gotta play .We repeated those 8 notes 54 times,i counted. Because i have nothing else to do.

I would sit back and listen the violins get lovely melodies, the violas would get lovely melodies

,the second violins will get lovely melodies which should just not happen and the cello we got

stuffed with 8 crappy lousy stinking notes and I began to wonder why , why would Pachelbel do

that to us?such a beautiful instrument and my theory was he once dated a cellist and she dissed

him really bad and for the rest of his life he came up with the worst cello parts he could ever

think of. It won’t be so bad if I didn’t hear him everyday , I know what you’re thinking, you

thinking ‘Rob don’t listen to classical radio anymore’ I- It doesn’t matter . Pachelbel’s following

me. It sounds paranoid but his following you too, you hear him everyday. I don’t know, I went to

my step nephew in law’s 8th grade graduation and their graduation song was a song by vitamin

C, no- As we go on, we’ll remember ya da da (Vitamin C – Graduation), The song I drive home I

turn on to classic rock’s Aerosmith – there was a time , when I was so broken hearted and ya da

da (Aerosmiths – cryin), so I get home and I thought clear my mind with some folk music no -

listen children to my Story it was written long ago, ya da da,( Coven- Listen to my story) damn

you Pachelbel just like everybody does Pachelbel just to torment me. I don’t even go to

Tacobell anymore cause it sounds too close. I hate Pachelbel with a passion I don’t even know his first

name, Its probably Yohan, their all named Yohan. Only thing about it he is an original one hit

wonder, he had one hit 300 years ago its my cross to bear my entire life where are they now

that’s what I want to know, where are you now Pachelbel?! VH1 I love the 1790’s, where is it? I

mean just stay away from the music that I love it will be better but he wont, he is shameless he

will follow me to the ends of the earth. I went to horde festival thinking no he cant possibly follow

me to the horde festival . But you know who is at the horde festival? Blues Traveler , That

means that Pachelbel is also at the horde festival! *Gibberish* moving and you’re in ya da da

(Blues Traveler- Hook) , so I figure out im gona listen to punk rock for the rest of my life no dice

– do you have the time, to listen to me whine, abou- ya da da,(Green day – basket case) you

know im getting really bored, cause all songs have the same damn chords, punk music is a joke ,

its really just broke, and im just paranoid na na na- I wanna push you around and I will and I will

,I wanna push you down and I will (Matchbox20 -push) and wa how, its been good living with

you(Better than ezra – Good) - and my machine head its better than the rest, my machine head

is better than (Bush – Machine head)- see the stones set in her eyes see the thorn twist in (U2 –

with or without you)- Im out all of faith, this is how I feel im cold and I am shamed, lying naked

on the floor (Natalie Imbruglia - torn), He was a boy, she was a girl, can it be anymore obvious

(Avril lavigne – Sk8ter boy) , we’re not gona take it , no we ain’t gona take it (Twister sister –

we’re not gonna take it) , on your mark, get set, and go now/ got a dream and we just know now

( Cyndi Grecco -Making our dreams come true), no woman no cry-ee-ai-ee-ai (Bob Marley –No

woman, No cry), When I find myself in times of trouble Pachelbel is always following me, I’ll see

you in hell Pachelbel, , Oh Pachelbel , Pachelbel, I’ll see your ass in hell , I’ll see you in Hell,

Pachelbel (The Beatles – Let it be) Thank you so much , Enjoy the rest!

KampaiTube's Review

As seen from the video, it was recorded live from some event so there's not much we can say about the production level. Thankfully, the audio is loud and clear so we could all have a good laugh over his jokes (rant). ;)

Pachebel's Cannon in D is well known around the world. So people might be wondering, why rant about Pachebel's Cannon in D? He did a good job in "expressing" the frustration of cello players and how Pachebel is haunting him with the tune wherever he went.

Like how some of the YouTubers commented, one of the best rants ever. It's not annoying but instead so enjoyable to listen to. He did a thorough homework of knowing the songs which use the same tune as Pachebel's Cannon in D which made it even more hilarious when he sang them out. ;D

"Rob Paravonian" is from Brooklyn, post this video up 2 years ago. He has many other videos in his channel as well, so do have a look. We enjoyed his "The Friends Theme and Sugar Ray" video but decided to post this instead as the length and content was more "fulfilling".

Let's hope Pachebel's not haunting us by publicizing this. ;O lol.

KampaiTube's Review

The video quality is definitely amazing but unfortunately the audio on the other hand is just horribly way too soft! we had to really tune up the volume and some speeches in the video is rather hard to hear too.=( *see our script if you find it too hard to hear some of the dialogue*

Wow, this video really blew us off for its AMAZING production level. This entire video is made by a student and only with a limited budget. The settings he used are almost close to perfect, the music suits really well to the movie's feel, the acting skills were impressive and it ended with such a touching great morale lesson to learn. Nikolai always wanted to fight for a freedom and escape from his country and never knew what really matters most in his life, his mother. =)

It also show how blessed we are in our country to live in such freedom.




''VFS ( Vancouver Film School)'' has alot of many other good videos that are worth watching for which there is one that we are going to feature also but it wont be anytime near soon :P but do check out their student's work and production. ''VFS'' is famous for their animation but this video really took itself to another level in its own genre without any animation, well done =)

Nick Pitera: Disney's "A Whole New World" (Cover)

Lyrics

I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
And no one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world
Now I'm in a whole new world

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world
A hundred thousand things to see
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be

Every turn a surprise
Every moment red-letter
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me

KampaiTube's Review

Needless to say, under this production level the audio is perfect.We're able to see his face, yes don't worry, he's a guy ;)

And yes we know, every time we listen to him sing this piece, our hair stand on its end. Amazing? Weird? Either way, he's really talented to be able to hit such wide range of vocal. Although, we were mentioning to each other that it'll be even more amazing if can actually harmonize those 2 voices together like the original piece, just like how professional beat boxers do ;P Speaking of which, he did not sing the full lyrics since he can't sing both voices at the same time.

Many commentators asked him to join American idol but like we all know, when you're famous on Youtube already, who needs competition and auditions like that? ;)




"Nick Pitera" did many other songs too in YouTube, such as "Bleeding Love" by Leona Lewis, "I will always love you" by Whitney Houston, "One Sweet Day" by Mariah Carey/Boyz 2 Men and many others. However, we decided to pick this video over the others as it has a pretty fair balance of both vocals and well, who doesn't know "A Whole New World" by Aladdin? ;)
