beardyman

Beardyman making people dance and jump up and down and shout and have sex with each other. No planning, nothing pre-recorded, just beatbox, some synths, live looping and the skin of Beardyman's teeth.

After 6 years of frantic research and development, its here. The Beardytron_5000 mkII, and i can't wait to share it with you.

For the last year and a half i have been working on the system which will allow me to finally realise the ideas i've had in my head all this time which i've never had the means to produce. Now i do.

This new system is immensely complicated, but it has to be. What i now have at my disposal is the most complex and fully featured live-production system ever devised. I can start from nothing and get a fully formed track in as long as it takes to imagine it. Real-time music production. This has never been possible before. My old set-up was never suited to task, but i got pretty good at using it live and working around its many flaws... Now however, i can design my way out of any problem i see. This has seen a team of 4 developers pushed to their limits to achieve my dream of being able to drag musical ideas out of my head and into the real world at the speed at which they occur to me.

It'll never be truly finished, because it's potential is limited only be my imagination and ability to fund it's development. But know this... Every time i test a new feature it fires off a thousand new ideas... Basically what i have here is a platform for innovation. At some point i will commercialise the hard work that has been done on the system, but there is no date set for software releases yet or any idea what kind of form any resulting products would take. Still, i feel it is now time to share the fruits of my labours with the world, and i invite u to join me on my ongoing journey into the unknown, to see what lies behind the great mirror, to sample the fruits of the fun-fun shrub, bathe in the cramnumbulant majesty of its myriad splendours. Be... Feel.... Die.

Beardyman: Beatboxer, person, thing. What is he doing? What is he ever doing? Why does he do it? nobody knows. Where is he going? Who are you?

Comedic live-looping beatboxish nonsense. . go on. . . feel yourself melting in my mouth. . . you filth monster.

In 2009 Beardyman embarked on a perilous journey into the unknown accompanied by a gaggle of genii.

The stage was set, but they had no idea what was going to happen. All they knew was that Beardyman had called them there to be awesome, the crowd had to be involved in the madness and at some point it would finish.

Featuring: JFB, KLumzytung, Jay Foreman, Onyx Ashanti, Reggie Watts, H, 'j'm Black, The audience, both inside and outside the venue.

are you ready? They're not.
