Warning: Contains scenes of a chap with serious identity issues :)

It's nice to see his boobs are coming along since he first started posting these. :)

Incidentally peeps, what is this style of music? It's like extended speed ad-jingle chase music.

You mean that's NOT a style? :)

Isn't it dodgy Ridge Racer music?

Is he really playing that on an 8 string? :)

He's clearly an awesome bassist and having fun while he's doing it. Whatever his reason for dressing the way he does (probably a mix of knowing that in the thumbnail looking like he's a girl wearing a short skirt attracting more viewers and just for shits and giggles), does it matter? I still find watching his videos fun...and makes me jealous of his ability...and his legs..

[quote name='allighatt0r' post='1048173' date='Dec 5 2010, 01:03 PM']This is him, in a more serious environment, still with his 8 string though:
The comments say his real name is Hyunmo Kim and it looks his band is called Oriental Express.[/quote]

I'll probably be shot for saying this, but anyone else thinking that he's a bit of a one-trick pony?

Personally, I think his slap playing on that oriental express track is quite intrusive and lacks regard for style/taste or musical sensitivity. It just sticks out like a sore thumb and SCREAMS of someone trying too hard to be heard.

There is no doubting his technical ability, but I think his lack of musicality really shines through in that particular clip.

*eagerly awaits insults, mockery and forum death*

I don't know about all that but that music is just horrible.
It's like lift muzak!

Either stick with the Korean instruments, which sound amazing, or just have the cheasy listening crap.
The "fusion" fails!


I prefer the guy's solo efforts!

What's the instrument that sounds a bit like a muted trumpet?
