Aaurora Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Does anyone know off hand what brand piano he plays? I am sure he plays a wide range but I am wondering if anyone knows his favourite brand or type of piano, if he favors digital or acoustic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vixenbbw Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I think that this photo and the interview in this You Tube clip are taken in his flat so not sure if you are able to tell what make of piano it is from them? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=bfW8lkAXBsA I also think that as half the contents of his flat are in the Happy Ending video that the piano is also his with a few stickers added since!! Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

armande Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 i like how he analysed the music in it, i think artists should do that more often, seeing as how it is supposed to be all about the music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaurora Posted December 2, 2007 Author Share Posted December 2, 2007 i like how he analysed the music in it, i think artists should do that more often, seeing as how it is supposed to be all about the music I love that too....he actually tells a bit about how he wrote it and his feelings behind it. Most commercial artists these days wouldn't know their way around an instrument if their lives depended on it. I have so much respect for people who can play like Mika can AND sing with that beautiful voice at the same time. It's not easy but he makes it seem like a walk in the park.

vixenbbw Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Oh I like his "little beep sounds" Why do you think that the interview is taken in his flat? I think the shakey camera work denotes that it's being filmed by a friend or family member as a promo.....it was used within a few early reports on TV around Europe. The fact that the various versions of the Relax sleeve (which was the first mini release last summer with just 500 copies pressed) are perched along the piano show how staged it was (and how long ago!). In a sweet, "OH MY GOD I'M DOING MY FIRST INTERVIEW TO CAMERA" kind of way! I remember reading a few early articles where the journolist said that they'd been invited over to Mika's flat to do the interview and that he'd played his piano for them so I suspect that this was shot just before those interviews as a practice run!

armande Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 well i remember seeing/reading in an interview something about recording something on his white chipboard piano or something like that, so im not sure if it is anything *isn't too sure* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fmbm Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 In the Live Lounge interview, he says he uses a "chipwork" (?) piano. I don't know if that's even a piano brand, but yeah EDIT: I just searched for it on Google and the only pictures that came up were of two guys... Guess it's not a brand haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armande Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 i thought i heard chipboard, which is basically a type of cheap wood, not a brand or anything like that, the way he spoke about it sounded as if it wasn't anything special, but sounds good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
