Alicsibu

Just a few days ago I was watching some videos of Ronald Jenkees on youtube. You probably know about him, he's already a big celebrity, playing improvisations on his keyboards just for fun. He's an amazing musician in my opinion, someone who will most likely influence a lot of people. His approach is what probably motivates people to listen to his songs and to make songs of their own: "Keep playing stuff, even simple stuff! You can have a whole lot of fun just jamming Mary had a Little Lamb" :)
This is Ronald's Youtube channel.

But who is Alicsibu?

He was one of the people inspired by Jenkees' music and he did something truly amazing. He covered several of Ronald Jenkees' tracks on guitar. Let me tell you, the results are amazing really! Alicsibu is his user name, and this is his Facebook page. His real name is actually Ali Genç. You have to listen to this guy:


I really love these cover songs. Just as many other users on youtube already said, Ali and Ronald Jenkees should really consider starting a band or something. It would be supernatural :) The beginning to Stay Crunchylitterally raised the hairs on my arm and the ending to Outer Space (A Fun Beat from Outer Space) is murder!
There's something about these songs that just makes me want to get up. I can't even sit down while listening to them. This morning I actually had a really tough exam, and I listened to these songs while having my breakfast. Amazing music. Exam went well too. (True stuff seriously!) 

I am still amazed by how Ali managed to follow the tonality of Jenkees' songs on a different instrument. He is truly a wonderful musician and I am honored to have his videos embedded here in my post. Hope you all like him!
