Cool instrument called the Harpejji and Jacob Collier

[Manny Fufish]

Here is something some folks here might really appreciate:


His discussions with Herbie Hancock are also worth watching. Then there are the ones with the orchestra conductors that play his pieces. Oh, just look around

If you listen to Jacob's new album Djesse Vol. 2, he has a track with Steve Vai called Do You Feel Love which might be a good 'guitar-based' intro into his stuff.

If this introduces you to Jacob, or the Harpejji for that matter, I have done a good thing here.

Every time I hear this guy, I'm in disbelief. Words can't do justice.

Nice! When I saw it, first thing I thought was "Jordan Rudess would probably love that", then I remembered watching him play something like that in the early youtube days and sure enough, that's exactly what it was:

I considered one of these after I saw Herbie use one live ....Stevie Wonder also rips on it.

Yep he mentions Stevie Wonder in the video. He is his number one (and number two) influence.

I helped Jordan create some Axe-Fx presets for use with his Harpeji.

Get the hell out of town, are you for real?! That is the coolest thing I have heard all day!! I was wondering about running one through the AxeFX... So do tell, how did it sound??

I heard about the Harpejji a few years back. Thought it would be interesting but the entry level instrument is quite expensive.

But those I've heard play it were pretty impressive!

I recall Jordan using it in "Raw Dog", from the God of War OST.
