Joe Jenkins: covers ‘Africa’ On The Stylophone

Jenkins Covers ‘Africa’ by Toto

Gear – Stylophone, A Poket Synth

Musician Joe Jenkins covers Toto – Africa on the ‘stylophone’.

Great song, talented YouTube musician @joejenkins covers Toto – Africa.

Front and center, check out the Toto – Africa on the Stylophone – Pocket Synthesizer. Those of you who like the old 8 byte synth sound, check out Jay’s video on Toto. Hey, I recognize the music might not be for everyone here, your genre or your friends. The point is the sound coming out of the mobile synthesizer. For me, I can just image game developers and musicians sitting around this thing coming up with in-game tunes, the next catch/hook or 70’s/80’s jingle… dare I say it’s like discovering a pocket MOOG Modular System probably not in reality. Still very cool, and a handheld way of producing those old school digital sounds. It’s the sound these pocket synth’s produce with a stroke of a stylus. I’m not musically inclined like @joejenkins… his videos are fantastic by the way. Furthermore, check out his rendition of Toto – Africa.

In the meantime, check out @joejenkins other videos, wild… other Syth videos on YouTube, Toto music, tours and shows (Sept. ’23) and background on the band… and, more importantly, more information, video and music created on the Stylophone – Pocket Synthesizer.

The LockPicking Lawyer

((Shout Out)) – LockPicking Lawyer

Tech | Tools – Latest From ‘The LockPicking Lawyer’

The LockPicking Lawyer remains high on the list of tubers I watch on a month-to-month basis. Sometimes weekly or even daily. Depends of course on how long it’s been since I last viewed videos produced by the LockPicking Lawyer.

Now, I’ve not seen all the videos just yet, but definitely worth a few videos before you get ‘hooked’. Opinion, The LockPicking Lawyer top of the list, as part of my list of lawyer content creators on the interwebs – Rekieta, Law of Self Defense, Outdoor Boys(Luke is now a full-time YouTuber), I believe he is no longer practicing, however, Luke was a DUI attorney in the VA/DC area).Starting with the LockPicking Lawyer, he covers just a ton of locksmithing stuff, tools – some self-made while others are industry standard, an in-depth lock analysis, an insiders look at locks, locking mechanisms, how-to and the ‘safety’ one might provide. The list goes on and on, which is why I wanted to cover his content first. May be we will roll out a ‘Law Content Creators’ series where we can cover the online phenomena of law-tube. For now, and with all intense and purposes, the LockPicking Lawyer, his shop – Covert Instruments and now adding nearly 18k subs on Rumble – LockPicking Lawyer.

We’ll keep this one short as the LockingPicking Lawyers offers hundreds if not thousands (1400), 2 – 3 min walkthroughs, product overview, the ‘action’ to bypass a locks defense, his takeaways/thoughts; a sharp, quick video with a purpose. To me, it’s still ‘magical’ like an illusionist, to watch him work. It’s like street magic, I recommend the ‘cut away’ videos. I’ll wrap the post with a comment on the cut away series(not a great teaser, as there is probably a better description for a detailed look at the internal structure of a lock), the LockPicking Lawyers offers an inside look at a locking mechanism by cutting away metal, housing or materials might contain the locking mechanism. Very cool. This helps to demystify the illusion and see the talent this guy has when ‘picking’ a lock. Also, check out the tools over on Covert Instruments, as mentioned above; very cool offerings. Get yourself some swag, Covert Companion tools or Lishi tools. Check out the great deals over on Covert Instruments.

Need scale work? Check out Steve S. or Justing S for basic guitar work, scales, music theory and advanced guitar session work.

All joking aside, the guitar has been a bear for me… 12 notes, sharps/flats, whatever that means. I’ve spent some 17 years trying to learn. Unfortunately, a majority of those years were spent sans guitar. I will admit, as tough is that is, it might have been a good idea to invest in a music teacher. But, since guitar ownership was never in the cards… Since then, guitar in hand… I’ve been using @GuitarZoom – @SteveStine and @JustinGuitar. Interested? If so, here is a look at one of my favorites for fretboard work.
