Soundtrack to an Imaginary Scene- Tom Thum (beatbox)

Listen to this with your eyes closed... what scene do u see inside your head?
I wrote this rather non traditionally structured piece in the midst of some serious creators block. I was imagining a scene in my head and decided to put a soundtrack to the action I saw, I would love to know what you imagined or where you thought it might be set? Or any other little scenes you want to see me put a soundtrack to?
let me know in the comments, it'll be an interesting little experiment. hope its not too out there for you.

Start Scene:
The tough antagonist struts into the bar, followed by his three goons. Our protagonist sits by himself at the counter, swishing a beer in his cup. The antagonist strolls up to him, obviously looking for trouble. "We had a deal.", the antagonist says in a gravelly voice. "And I held up my end.", says the protagonist. They face off for about ten seconds, until the antagonist throws a punch at the protagonist. He easily dodges it, and then backs up. "I have no intention of fighting, but I will if you insist.", he says. The antagonist lunges at him, but the protagonist sidesteps, causing the antagonist to crash into a chair and fall. "I told you", says the protagonist, "I have no intention of fighting." An epic fight scene ensues, with the protagonist easily defeating the obviously drunk antagonist and his "henchmen." With horns playing in the background, the protagonist silently slips out just before the police bust in.

IT'S THE VOCALS THAT MAKE ME WATCH THIS ON REPEAT. THEY ACTUALLY HAVE THIS ENTRANCING QUALITY AND IT'S BOTHERING ME. I think I have a tom thum addiction.

[tomthummer]

Haha these are so good yo! Loving the comments

[thetrappedchatterbox]

That bass sound is unreal! Watched this 3 times just for that bassline.

[DKLundoe]

Always had a soft-spot for your more smooth jazzy stuff, with trumpet and sax infused beats and some layered vocals on top! Keep preaching the beats champ!

[piotrfurchel]

i got goosebumps while listening to it !

[inmortalisableful]

Can everybody just stand still for a moment and bask in the glory of the talent that Tom expresses? Damn man... You truly have no match!

Hello Tom,
after following you for years and years there is one thing that need to be said:
You changed Beatbox history.

I mean we all saw some of those "The History of Beatboxing" videos on YT etc., but you will be included in the future ones, because you took beatbox to a new level. a broader are of musical creativity. The way YOU do it, could be implemeted everywhere, from club music to Hollywood music.

Thank You!

[wobblyjelly]

This makes me think of an emotional, yet victorious ending to a dramatic crime thriller..

[fo-r-ry]

The greatest beatboxer I've seen!

[Twinfire]

To describe an imaginary scene, difficult but here's what my mind conjured up as my ears absorbed this amazing vocal talent.

I see a mixure of slo mo and time lapse visuals of Tom walking though a city metropolis moving from one point of interest to the next, drawing inspiration from the environment and it's inhabitants. From sleepy nightclubs, a smooth jazz lounge, talented buskers and other urban sounds. Tom takes it all in and in his mind creates this beautiful sound. Beatboxception

Mad skills

I see a calm nightlife scene in Berlin with a new black Mercedes Benz driving at normal speed through popular streets and quarters with lights reflections on the surface of the car. A scene without any sound effects and foley. Maybe it is a little bit of cliché but yeah that's basically what I have in my mind hearing this. When the trumpet comes in I see a dolly shot into a live music club or a typical Berlin-style trendy nightclub.

I hope it does not sound presumptuous when I ask for "How to make a crackling disct sound" tutorial. But anyway: keep up the good work! I just love your beatboxing!

[evanfouts]

My mouth was open the whole time, you're just such an artist. Immediately sharing this with my other beatboxer friends.

[FunkkyPanda]

I hope you’ll see this Tom. Any chance you can experiment with 80’s style beatbox music. Imagine music from legendary films like Scarface but adding the Thum twist to it, would be pretty interesting to see what that brilliant mind makes even in the moment of creators block.
