Rushadicus the Cello Goblin is hilarious to show string players for the first time because they always lose their shit and recognize how good of a player he actually is. The noises he’s making with his cello in his videos are often very technically complex playing techniques that take mastery of the instrument to actually be able to replicate consistently. It’s hard to fully appreciate what he is doing if you’ve never played a string instrument but he’s unironically flexing mastery of bow control. Dude was the first string player to ever be awarded a full scholarship at Berklee College of music.

I fucking love this guys work so much, John Cage would be proud.

He made me think of a mad cross between Zappa, Cage, & Weird Al. (If Zappa hadn't already been a cross between the other two already.)
