If you love strong magic and mentalism then InstruMental will be music to your ears! You will be able to predict a freely chosen song, in an absolutely stunning way, on a borrowed spectator's phone. This is a piece of mentalism for the modern age that blows audiences away. This is InstruMental by David Jonathan and Nikolas Mavresis.

Here’s What Happens:
1. Borrow their phone and open Spotify to search for a song and start playing it on mute. You never touch their phone again!
2. Introduce a pack of karaoke cards and have a participant freely pick any song in the deck. They never tell you what song they chose and just imagine listening to it in their mind.
3. They now raise the volume on their phone and jaws hit the floor as the song they had selected is playing!

InstruMental is a deck of music cards that is loaded with devious secrets. The beautifully designed cards feature popular artists and songs from a wide variety of decades and genres. From Prince and Amy Winehouse to Snoop Dogg and Elvis, there’s an eclectic mix that anyone can relate to. All you need to perform is any smartphone (Android or iPhone) with Spotify and, believe it or not, the cards will do nearly all the work for you.

There’s multiple versions offered, whether you, or your audience, has a free or premium Spotify account. Additionally, iPhone owners can use their phone to have the song revealed as a music video playing on YouTube or Vimeo, instead of Spotify. The possibilities are truly wild.

The ingenious core method does not use NFC, RFID, App Clips, Shortcuts, remotes, or any custom apps. There’s no side-loaded software or pairing devices – everything happens natively on their phone. If your spectator is one of the few who does not have the Spotify app, you can always perform using your phone – it’s just as impressive!

In the tutorial, David & Nikolas unveil additional diabolical features built into the deck and teach many other incredible routines using these cards. This is not a one trick pony – you can perform a small set using just the InstruMental deck!

InstruMental captivates audiences through music, delivering an impactful audio revelation that crescendos into an unforgettable experience.

Excellent Effect

Instrumental by David Jonathan does everything it say on the tin extremely well. 1st class tutorial and at £23 a steal. Also excellent service from Monster Magic.

Brilliant!

David Jonathan does it again! Never knew the secret was a thing. David really is a genius. A fantastic trick at a fantastic price. A no brainer I think they call it.

Instru-absolutely-mental

I knew roughly what this would entail but wow does it feature a plethora of different features, tricks and handlings to play with. Lots to learn in the massive instructional video and great value. Something for a beginner to play with and learn fundamentals of magic and audience management through to the more seasoned magician to astounds with. You can probably tell that I like it....

A little gem of a trick.

Can see why Alex has sold out of Instrumental not once, or even twice, but three times! It’s a cracking trick and that’s just the main effect!

The main effect (which you see on the trailer) is super easy to do. There are no sleights involved and one of the best things about Instrumental is that you end completely clean.

The song reveal can be done in a number of ways, depending on whether you have the free version of Spotify or the Premium version. You can also set up a reveal that plays the song and video from Youtube or Vimeo (enhanced version).

Need to bear in mind that you will only be able to do an audio reveal (turning the volume up on the phone) with the premium version of Spotify or using the enhanced (Youtube/Vimeo) version. On the free version you will have to do a screen reveal. Still a lovely trick, but the audio reveal gives the trick a little extra impact.

The karaoke cards have some hidden features which means you can perform other card tricks with the deck. These are covered on the download too.

As usual great service provided by Alex/Monster Magic in delivering the product next day, after ordering.

Fab trick and maybe a contender for trick of the year?

Amazing!

I've already written a review of the basic routine - which is so clever, and is absolutely what you saw on the promo vids - no weird camera cuts or angles needed. But I'm adding another review for the bonus effects. So you do the "core" routine with these cards... What next? This has you covered with several bonus effects. The first "out of this world" routine would be easily set up as you talk, and is honestly the best version of one of my favourite routines! A shuffled deck? How?
This would be a magician fooler - and will blow a lay audience away!
