Frustriran zbog činjenice da nije u stanju da peva dva tona u isto vreme, muzički pronalazač Bradonja, je napravio mašinu koja mu omogućava da stvori lupinge i slojeve istog zvuka koji proizvodi svojim glasom. Sa tom napravom on može bez poteškoća da izvodi veštine sa zvukom svačega, od plakanja bebe do zujanja mušica, da ne pominjemo oponašanje gotovo svakog muzičkog instrumenta koji se može zamisliti, a to je dosta različitih zvukova. Zavalite se i pustite da vas preplavi zvučni talas ovog sjajnog izvođača.

It was coming straight for me. I had to. It was, yeah.
16
87343

Išlo je pravo prema meni.
Morao sam. Da.
Morao sam. Da.
01:43
As you can probably well imagine,
17
91216
3112
Kao što verovatno možete
da pretpostavite
da pretpostavite
01:46
I was a strange child.
18
94328
2599
bio sam čudno dete.
01:48
(Laughter)
19
96927
6491
(Smeh)
01:55
Because the thing is, I was constantly trying
20
103418
2911
Jer, zapravo sam stalno pokušavao
01:58
to extend my repertoire of noises to be
21
106329
4134
da proširim svoj repertoar zvukova
02:02
the very maximum that it could be.
22
110463
2560
do svog mogućeg maksimuma.
02:05
I was constantly experimenting with these noises.
23
113023
2257
Stalno sam eksperimentisao
sa tim zvukovima.
sa tim zvukovima.
02:07
And I'm still on that mission.
24
115280
2079
I još uvek to radim.
02:09
I'm still trying to find every noise
25
117359
1806
I dalje pokušavam da nađem svaki zvuk
02:11
that I can possibly make.
26
119165
2299
koji mogu da napravim.
02:13
And the thing is, I'm a bit older and wiser now,
27
121464
2264
A zapravo, sad sam
malo stariji i mudriji,
malo stariji i mudriji,
02:15
and I know that there's some noises
28
123728
1586
i znam da postoje neki zvuci
02:17
I'll never be able to make because I'm hemmed in
29
125314
2149
koje nikada neću biti u stanju
da napravim jer me ograničava
da napravim jer me ograničava
02:19
by my physical body, and there's things it can't do.
30
127463
3664
moje telo, a i postoje stvari
koje ne umem da uradim.
koje ne umem da uradim.
02:23
And there's things that no one's voice can do.
31
131127
1869
A postoje i stvari koje ničiji glas
ne može da napravi.
ne može da napravi.
02:24
For example, no one can do two notes at the same time.
32
132996
3780
Na primer, niko ne može da stvori
dva tona u isto vreme.
dva tona u isto vreme.
02:28
You can do two-tone singing,
33
136776
1665
Možete stvoriti bitonalno pevanje,
02:30
which monks can do, which is like...
34
138441
3549
koje monasi mogu, što zvuči otprilike...
02:33
(Two-tone singing)
35
141990
9893
(Bitonalno pevanje)
02:43
But that's cheating.
36
151883
2606
Ali to je varanje.
02:46
And it hurts your throat.
37
154489
1866
I dere vam grlo.
02:48
So there's things you can't do, and these limitations
38
156355
3211
Dakle, postoje stvari koje ne možete
da uradite, ali ta ograničenja
da uradite, ali ta ograničenja
02:51
on the human voice have always really annoyed me,
39
159566
3298
ljudskog glasa su me istinski nervirala,
02:54
because beatbox is the best way of getting
40
162864
3264
jer bitboks je najbolji način puštanja
02:58
musical ideas out of your head and into the world,
41
166128
3422
muzičkih ideja iz vaše glave u svet,
03:01
but they're sketches at best,
42
169550
1892
ali one su samo skice
03:03
which is what's annoyed me.
43
171442
1742
što me je takođe nerviralo.
03:05
If only, if only there was a way
44
173184
2428
Kad bi samo postojao način
03:07
for these ideas to come out unimpeded
45
175612
2801
da te ideje izađu neometano
03:10
by the restrictions which my body gives it.
46
178413
4686
bez ograničenja koje stvara moje telo.
03:15
So I've been working with these guys,
47
183099
2389
Radio sam sa ovim momcima
03:17
and we've made a machine.
48
185488
3785
i napravili smo mašinu.
03:21
We've made a system which is basically
49
189273
2347
Stvorili smo sistem koji je zapravo
03:23
a live production machine,
50
191620
3326
mašina žive produkcije,
03:26
a real-time music production machine,
51
194946
3717
realna mašina žive produkcije
03:30
and it enables me to, using nothing but my voice,
52
198663
3935
koja mi omogućava da,
koristeći samo svoj glas,
koristeći samo svoj glas,
03:34
create music in real time as I hear it in my head
53
202598
4302
stvaram muziku u realnom vremenu
kako je čujem u glavi
kako je čujem u glavi
03:38
unimpeded by any physical restrictions
54
206900
2518
neometanu blio kakvom
fizičkom preprekom
fizičkom preprekom
03:41
that my body might place on me.
55
209418
2106
koju moje telo može da stvori.
03:43
And I'm going to show you what it can do.
56
211524
3873
Pokazaću vam šta može da uradi.
03:47
And before I start making noises with it,
57
215397
3886
Pre nego što počnem
da stvaram zvukove sa njom
da stvaram zvukove sa njom
03:51
and using it to manipulate my voice,
58
219283
2418
i da je koristim
da upravljam svojim glasom,
da upravljam svojim glasom,
03:53
I want to reiterate that everything that you're about to hear
59
221701
2647
želim da ponovim
da je sve što ćete čuti
da je sve što ćete čuti
03:56
is being made by my voice.
60
224348
3888
stvoreno mojim glasom.
04:00
This system has --
61
228236
2957
Ovaj sistem nema –
04:03
thank you, beautiful assistant --
62
231193
2406
hvala vam, predivni asistentu –
04:05
this system has no sounds in it itself
63
233599
5160
Ovaj sistem nema zvukove u sebi
04:10
until I start putting sounds in it,
64
238759
1824
dok ja ne počnem da ih stavljam u njega
04:12
so there's no prerecorded samples of any kind.
65
240583
3856
Tako da ne postoje prethodno
snimljene matrice bilo kakve vrste.
snimljene matrice bilo kakve vrste.
04:16
So once this thing really gets going,
66
244439
2301
Kada jednom ovo počne da radi
04:18
and it really starts to mangle the audio I'm putting into it,
67
246740
2358
i prilično počne da seče zvuke
koje stavljam u nju,
koje stavljam u nju,
04:21
it becomes not obvious that it is the human voice,
68
249098
3525
nije očigledno
da je u pitanju ljudski glas,
da je u pitanju ljudski glas,
04:24
but it is, so I'm going to take you through it bit by bit
69
252623
2710
ali jeste, te ću vas delimično
sprovesti kroz mašinu
sprovesti kroz mašinu
04:27
and start nice and simple.
70
255333
1757
i početi fino i jednostavno.
04:29
So the polyphony problem: I've only got one voice.
71
257090
2423
Problem višeglasja:
imam samo jedan glas.
imam samo jedan glas.
04:31
How do I get around the problem
72
259513
2163
Kako rešavam poteškoću
04:33
of really wanting to have as many different voices
73
261676
2274
istinske želje da imam
što više različitih tonova
što više različitih tonova
04:35
going on at the same time.
74
263950
1258
koji se stvaraju u isto vreme.
04:37
The simplest way to do it is something like this.
75
265208
1879
Najjednostavniji način da to uradim
je nešto poput ovog.
je nešto poput ovog.
04:39
(Beatboxing)
76
267087
6288
(Bitboksovanje)
04:45
By dancing. It's like this.
77
273375
1975
Igranjem. Recimo ovako.
04:47
(Music)
78
275350
4615
(Muzika)
05:19
Thanks.
79
307186
1429
Hvala.
05:20
(Applause)
80
308615
2353
(Aplauz)
05:22
So that's probably the easiest way.
81
310968
3246
Ovo je verovatno najjednostavniji način.
05:26
But if you want to do something a little bit more immediate,
82
314214
3366
Ali ako želite da uradite
nešto malo brže,
nešto malo brže,
05:29
something that you can't achieve with live looping,
83
317580
1660
nešto što ne možete postići
lupingom uživo,
lupingom uživo,
05:31
there's other ways to layer your voice up.
84
319240
1932
postoje drugačiji načini
da kamuflirate svoj glas.
da kamuflirate svoj glas.
05:33
There's things like pitch-shifting,
85
321172
2036
Postoje stvari poput nameštanja
visine tona (pitch shifting),
visine tona (pitch shifting),
05:35
which are awesome,
86
323208
1679
što je sjajno,
05:36
and I'm going to show you now what that sounds like.
87
324887
1888
i pokazaću vam sad kako to zvuči.
05:38
So I'm going to start another beat for you, like this.
88
326775
2609
Počeću sa drugim tonom
za vas, poput ovog.
za vas, poput ovog.
05:41
(Beatboxing)
89
329384
7700
(Bitboksing)
05:49
There's always got to be a bit of a dance at the start,
90
337084
1665
Uvek mora biti malo igranja na početku,
05:50
because it's just fun, so
91
338749
1633
jer je zabavno, pa
05:52
you can clap along if you want.
92
340382
2530
možete pljeskati ukoliko želite.
05:54
You don't have to. It's fine. Check it out.
93
342912
2543
Ne morate. U redu je. Vidite ovo.
05:57
I'm going to lay down a bass sound now.
94
345455
4280
Sad ću ubaciti zvuk basa.
06:01
(Music)
95
349735
6575
(Muzika)
06:11
And now, a rockabilly guitar.
96
359543
4108
A sad, električna gitara.
06:27
Which is nice. But what if I want to make, say, a -- (Applause) --
97
375127
4031
Što je lepo. Ali šta ako želim
da napravim, recimo – (Aplauz)
da napravim, recimo – (Aplauz)
06:31
Thanks. What if I want to make, say, a rock organ?
98
379158
2663
Hvala. Šta ako želim da napravilm,
recimo, rok orgulje?
recimo, rok orgulje?
06:33
Is that possible? Yes, it is,
99
381821
2914
Da li je moguće? Da, jeste,
06:36
by recording myself like this.
100
384735
2184
snimanjem mene ovako.
06:38
(Organ sound)
101
386919
2968
(Zvuk orgulja)
06:41
And now I have that, I have that recorded.
102
389887
4556
Sad imam to snimljeno.
06:46
Assign it to a keyboard.
103
394443
1524
Staviću to u klavijaturu.
06:47
(Music)
104
395967
3630
(Muzika)
06:51
So that's cool.
105
399597
1769
To je kul.
06:53
(Applause)
106
401366
1988
(Aplauz)
06:55
But what if I wanted to sound like the whole of Pink Floyd?
107
403354
5876
Ali šta ako bih želeo da zvučim
kao čitav sastav Pink Flojda?
kao čitav sastav Pink Flojda?
07:01
Impossible, you say. No.
108
409230
2769
Nemoguće, reći ćete. Ne.
07:03
It is possible, and you can do it very simply
109
411999
2839
Moguće je i možete to uraditi
veoma jednostavno
veoma jednostavno
07:06
using this machine. It's really fantastic. Check it out.
110
414838
3968
koristeći ovu mašinu.
Zaista je fantastično. Poslušajte ovo.
Zaista je fantastično. Poslušajte ovo.
07:10
(Music)
111
418806
16973
(Muzika)
07:44
So every noise you can hear there is my voice.
112
452609
3364
Svaki zvuk koji možete čuti ovde
je moj glas.
je moj glas.
07:47
I didn't just trigger something which sounds like that.
113
455973
4172
Nisam samo uključio nešto
što zvuči kao to.
što zvuči kao to.
07:52
There's no samples. There's no synthesizers.
114
460145
1569
Nema uzoraka.
Nema sintisajzera.
Nema sintisajzera.
07:53
That is literally all my voice being manipulated,
115
461714
3475
Bukvalno to je samo
moj obrađeni glas.
moj obrađeni glas.
07:57
and when you get to that point, you have to ask, don't you,
116
465189
3899
Kada dođete do te tačke,
treba da pitate, zar ne,
treba da pitate, zar ne,
08:01
what's the point?
117
469088
1788
u čemu je poenta?
08:02
Why do this? (Laughter)
118
470876
4121
Zašto raditi ovo?
(Smeh)
(Smeh)
08:06
Because it's cheaper than hiring the whole of Pink Floyd,
119
474997
2419
Jer je jeftinije nego unajmiti
čitav Pink Flojd,
čitav Pink Flojd,
08:09
I suppose, is the easy answer.
120
477416
1716
pretpostavljam da je
jednostavan odgovor.
jednostavan odgovor.
08:11
But in actual fact, I haven't made this machine
121
479132
3976
Ali u stvari, nisam napravio ovu mašinu
08:15
so that I can emulate things that already exist.
122
483108
2816
da bih oponašao stvari koje već postoje.
08:17
I've made this so that I can make
123
485924
2261
Napravio sam ovo
kako bih mogao da stvorim
kako bih mogao da stvorim
08:20
any noise that I can imagine.
124
488185
1299
bilo koji zvuk koji mogu da zamislim.
08:21
So with your permission, I'm going to do
125
489484
3086
Sa vašom dozvolom, uradiću
08:24
some things that are in my mind,
126
492570
2281
neke stvari koje su u mojoj glavi
08:26
and I hope you enjoy them,
127
494851
1579
i nadam se da ćete uživati u njima
08:28
because they're rather unusual,
128
496430
2170
jer su neuobičajene,
08:30
especially when you're doing things which are
129
498600
2973
posebno kad radite stvari koje su
08:33
as unusual as this, it can be hard to believe
130
501573
3516
atipične kao ove,
može biti teško da se shvati
može biti teško da se shvati
08:37
that it is all my voice, you see.
131
505089
1879
da je sve ovo moj glas.
08:38
(Voice effects)
132
506968
8917
(Efekti glasa)
08:52
(Music)
133
520177
11212
(Muzika)
09:13
Like this.
134
541331
2088
Kao ovo.
09:15
(Music)
135
543419
5557
(Muzika)
10:46
So, loosely defined,
136
634572
4101
Slobodno rečeno,
10:50
that is what's possible with the human voice.
137
638673
3850
to je ono što je moguće
sa ljudskim glasom.
sa ljudskim glasom.
10:54
Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen.
138
642523
1682
Hvala vam puno, dame i gospodo.

Beardyman - Beatboxer and inventorBeardyman, “ruler of beats and destroyer of dance floors,” has developed a real-time music-production system that places live looping at the center of a new musical paradigm.
Why you should listen
Beardyman, AKA Darren Foreman, was studying product design at Brighton University in the UK when he started beatboxing. After winning two consecutive UK Beatbox Championships, he turned to live looping (recording and playing back audio samples in real time) as a way to layer his vocal ablutions into dance-floor-rocking hour-long sets. He released his debut album in 2011 and has been rocking stages all over the world ever since.
Working with DMGAudio, Beardyman built what he calls the "Beardytron_5000 mkII," a real-time music-production system that could be the solution to the problem of how to smash a dance floor using only your voice -- and how to compose and produce complex and highly nuanced electronic dance music in real time. “There was nothing available that does what I need, so I was forced to make it myself," he says.
