Seeburg 1000 - Pt 2
As promised (threatened?) on Sunday - here’s part 2 of the Seeburg BGM video.
In this video I show the best way to play Seeburg records without the official machine. The experience is a compromise compared to using an original Seeburg BMS1, but with those currently being offered for sale at prices into the thousands, it’s one that's worth making.
This video has early access on Patreon.
Thanks for your continued support.

Speaking as somebody who cannot digest anything dairy, I can confirm you get really tired of being told "ahh but you can have DARK chocolate" like it's some sort of substitute? Great video, really ingenious.
I have to fully agree with olives, espresso and dark chocolate. I'd also like to add yoghurt to that list.
Another quality film concerning lost and ancient technology.......keep up the good work
The muppets criticizing society was so.. cool. (ouch!)
I enjoyed this video as much as part 1. And the muppet extra always makes me smile. You said in an ealier comment that you are not a puppeteer, but I think you are doing very great.
Im glad you liked it...when I was editing it together I was concerned that it was all falling a bit flat..so that's great to know .
I enjoyed the work around on this video over the initial machine in part 1. 3D printing really has its uses. Love those Muppet clips, so funny & ironic 😂
Wow, a stack of records, that takes me back. I would have loved to have heard the sound they made as they dropped down, the soundtrack of my teenage years! Loved the video, the old technology and the dedication to solve a problem that few folks would ever bother with. All that and a treatise on the philiosophy of cool from the muppets. My day is now complete.
Mat, you do better Muppet shows than the Muppet Show does anymore. (That's a compliment, btw, not a backhanded jab at the Muppet Show.... although...)
These bits are ludicrously time consuming to do, however a lot of people like them...but then again there are also probably as many that really dislike them. I'm also never sure if they've worked, this one probably wasn't the strongest and I'm certainly no puppeteer...it's a funny old world.
I've been driving my family crazy by listening to the Seeburg audio stream since you published part 1. The music, though mind-numbing, has an odd nostalgic charm about it.
I haven't spent too long listening to it myself, does it repeat?
I like olives, wife likes dark chocolate and I'm from the Seattle area (home of Starbucks) so I'm kind of forced to like coffee even though I prefer tea. Oh, kind of glossed over the first part of the video... gotta go watch it again ;-)
Always love the Muppet outros. Don't let anyone convince you to abandom them ! (I mean, they are daft, but it's good daft ya know?)
Entertaining as always! :D See you got to use that french telephone terminal thingy. Perfect muppet prop!
It gives you an idea of the run-up time for each video. This is the first opportunity I had to use it - but it's been sat on that table since I unboxed it in the earlier video.
