Kurt has an amazing eye for talent and has made so many famous YouTube musicians what they are today by featuring them in his videos. In many ways, he is a sort of "central hub" to the greater world of music on YouTube. In this particular video, he is playing alongside a very unique musician who has been previously featured in a couple of Kurt's videos. Kevin Olusola is a musician with the ability to play cello and beat-box at the same time-- both very well. When you watch the video, it may seem like the sound isn't matched when they show Kevin's mouth, but after years of watching beat-boxing videos (yes guys, I really do watch them!), I have come to realize that a lot of the sounds you hear from beat-boxers come from inside their mouths and not just from their lips (a mistake many make when they try to imitate the sounds of beat-boxing).
This video was sponsored by Coca-Cola (you'll see why when you watch), and features MANY unique and awesome ways to make everyday items into less-than-everyday instruments (but watch for all the different kinds of mallets he uses!). This video has a sort of "MysteryGuitarMan" feel to it, so if you enjoy this, I would suggest you look through some of the awesome videos found in my sidebar under "MysteryGuitarMan".
Look for more amazing & creative videos from Kurt to be featured on my blog in the future!
(P.S. This video is actually not on YouTube (except by those who put it up illegally-- a thing I do not appreciate when it was not their work, but they are putting it on their channel), so the player may look a little different than usual.)
