This is what Jazz clubs are like in the Bladerunner universe
this is what jazz clubs are like in our universe
thought the same thing seeing them at Bangface in 2017, great set :)
@@gloobark Jazz clubs usually have less fusion mode. This is more like Montreaux. The only thing missing is Metheny.
Gotta give that keyboardist props for holding that constant 16th note synth line for SEVEN FUCKING MINUTES STRAIGHT during Journey to Reedham. It's one thing to play complex stuff, but that level of stamina/precision is very difficult to execute.
Yep, that broke my brain also. I would have simply assumed it was an arpeggiator, but if it was, the drummer would have to be playing to a click track, and We Can't Have That.
Just a music 👍 🇵🇱
@@cwoodfield I'm pretty sure they play to a click though, especially with the light show and their helmets.
@@crimsonfab Nah the helmet visuals most likely react to the sounds themselves rather than being preprogrammed.
@@bezasajyd0 I dunno. A lightning pattern like at 13:20 does not seem to respond to the sound.
Drummer is a madness
ya Adam Betts is beast
the whole thing is a wonderful madness
Recommend Adam Betts’s solo work. It’s bonkers and, for drummers at least, profoundly humbling.
His ability to capture a live DnB feel as such is absolute magic.
The "A Journey to Reedham (7AM Mix)" drums are crazy difficult, they are so offbeat to the music. Just as Jenkins designed them
The drummer is an absolute Madman
Adam Betts is one of the best drummers out there. His creativity is unmatched, and his technical skill is nothing short of otherworldly
Psychopath
I remember how my mind split hearing Squarepusher for the first time 20 some years ago...convinced the music of the future had finally arrived. All I wanted was to someday witness this music live with full instrumentation but never really thinking it possible. Getting to see Squarepusher live was amazing but I always hoped that some day, the future would come and I'd see a group of musicians playing Tom's music live on stage.
When I heard of Shobaleader One, I essentially lost my shit...I thought the future is finally here! Last week I got to experience this 20yr dream live and it was nothing short of perfect. I have seen too many shows to count but this whole thing is another level. Every chance possible I will be there to witness the future of music in the now. Shobaleader One 😨
I felt quite the same watching Shobaleader One live about 2 years ago :) That's the power and beauty of music - it never ceases to surprise music lovers
Took this long to find a live drummer able to play his stuff... 😆 One of my absolutely favorites from the 90ies also.
@@mot00rzysta very same.
Feed me weird things is a milestone .. and randomly discovering that shoaba was Thom J. in Berlin x jazz fest .. I went out of curiosity.. and BAM! they played so many old monuments 😍 my heart and brain danced all along
On "Music is Rotted One Note".. released 21 years ago, all of the drums are live and played by Tom.
You have the sound of someone who's just spent the night sleeping face-down in a plate of synth-spaghetti
Just in case, timestamps:
0:00 - 5:04 Hello Meow
5:05 - 12:03 A Journey to Reedham (7AM Mix)
12:08 - 19:42 E8 Boogie
ty kind soul
yessss a journey to reed ham is like uhmmmm well i call them cushy beats cause they’re so lush like a blankee but as i write this as i listen and watch . . . whoah there it is when that synth kicks in. . . jaha you know . . . that ONE :p ( actually probably do) highsingy like one omg thanks
you are cool man
You do the OP's work, thank you!
Where can we pruchase the Hello Meow live version?
WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT DRUMMER???????? WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK? just incredible, couldnt have imagined better live versions
That's Adam Betts from Three Trapped Tigers, he's not of this earth.
when i saw shobaleader live the drumming blew me away. and it gets even crazier than this set
ADAM BETTS IS NEXT LEVEL DRUM COLOSUS
COLOSSAL SQUID
Love the 16" crash/hat set-up to emulate the Amen break cymbal
the cymbal setup is so cool, to me it seems like he uses everything like ride and a crash... I just want this set lmao
@@a_silly_birb wait,so he is using 2 crashs as a hihat to emulate that sound?
That arrangement of Hello Meow is god damn brilliant
It's better than the album version...which I also love. Just mega love this version x
truly one of the best performances i've ever seen
killer bass solo
Holy hell! The best live jazz/electronic set I've ever seen.
Yep!
I saw them live.. this does them no justice.
They ruined me for other shows, the bar was set very high. When I saw tool live,
I thought the same thing about them, they blew tool out of the water.
hands down
I wanna see shobaleader live at least once before I die.
better hurry. #justsaying
dsmyify :) yup, I'll take the next chance I get. Never know when fate decides to fuck you up:/
big ups to Tom and the band. Drummer is just a guy from a different dimension. Much love
Dude is *playing* the arpeggios on the keyboard??. . .NICE!!!
level 2
I pictured Kevin Malone say that in my head
It feels good to be playing
I want to be Shobaleader One
演奏してるの気持ちいいだろうなぁ
Shobaleader One になりたい…。
Far spicier than Alarm Will Sound. Tom says he got the idea for Shobaleader One after having a surreal dream, but I reckon it's 'cos he saw CZcams drummers and bassists playing along to VSnares and Aphex tracks and whatnot, and thought to himself, "might as well take this idea to its logical conclusion".
Saw them a couple of days ago at the Brudenell in Leeds. They were totally fucking unbelievable - Squarepusher's the best bass player I've *ever* seen, and the drummer is beyond ridiculous. You lose your mind, basically.
If you ever get the remotest chance of seeing them play, just do it!
Yeah man, saw them at Womad and thought it was just squarepusher, didnt even know the live band was a thing. Totally blew my mind and everyone else there i think. Peoples jaws were on the floor. Best live band i think i've ever seen!
god this is all i could have hoped for with a shobaleader revival. so great.
Tom Jenkinson has the best double-thumb technique out of any bassist I've EVER seen!
Sorry, Victor Wooten.
His tone is pretty damn ridiculous too.
For me, he's hands down the greatest living jazz/virtuoso bassist by a mile and a half
@@mikepawlikguitar him and thundercat really be jacos spiritual successors imo. Victor Wooten a goat too.
I've been a Squarepusher fan for a very long time ... This is Crazy ! Thanx Tom !
How can anyone dislike this? It's like saying the Mona Lisa is shit. Even if you don't like it, it's still a piece of art.
This entire performance is so well played, filmed, produced and edited. 10/10, gold stars and pizza pie for all those involved.
I usually take my epilepsy neat, but this’ll do just fine.
hahaha
I was struggling how to explain / put in words how much of an excited,hyper emotional state this set leaves me in... your comment is fucking excellent haha
hahaha
Wow amazing concert!!!! Squarepusher and shobaleader one
rules!!!
Must be mental to have a drone as audience while being bombarded by strobing screens and leds lol.
Classy performance. Bigups
It's a jib not a drone
ya not everything is a drone, yet
@@ethantastic that would've been fucking dangerous :P
Dude those drums. Absolutely incredible!
Hello Meow LIVE??? Thank you to the multiverse and the gods of sound. I am complete.
Dude... I've only known Squarepusher for about a few months. *WHAT OTHER GREATNESS AM I MISSING!?*
NinjaRecon I really dig his album Just a Souvenir; it’s his “rock” album but this reminds of that one a lot
Have you taken a listen to GoGo Penguin already?
Venetian snares
Always fun to show this group to folks who are impressed by Bad Plus covering Flim... nothing against that cover. But its just insane to me that Tom even takes this live. Love it.
wow. that was so precise . sounded so good! so much attention to detail from the original tracks LOVE IT
Love it, like the bastard love-child of Cardiacs and Daft Punk.
markythesharky69 more like Squarepusher live ;)
I had no idea this is what Mr J was doing these last years. It is astoundingly good, just like listening to Journey to Reedham for the first time and being flabbergasted. Just incredible. I knew he was a good musician and loved the first jazz records, but it is truly something else at this point.
to this day. this was one of the best sets ive ever seen on boiler room.
And another two years later, still up there as one of the best
Amazing band and great camera work! Thank you for the quality upload.
this is freaking genius... hope Shobaleader One comes with another tour rather sooner then... never. Live just blew my f-ing mind
Absolutely incredible performance. So amazing.
why did i enjoy this more than i thought i would.........
i came here from Squarepusher.........i love this....
I would love love love it if Shobaleader One covered Amen Brother by The Winstons!
I guess there is enough of Tom’s tracks to cover for them to never have to cover other bands :p
20-minute mint space cruise extravaganza
ableton spotted, a journey to reedham is amazing.
this music makes me wanna roll up into a ball, spin and get rings
yosoytacoseasoning 19, 65, 09, 17
It’s really cool when people tune their drums
incredible. mad respect to Tom and the band.
Shobaleader One live was the best show I have ever been to.
I guess the next step would be to find a drummer that can play Sad Robot Goes Funny, lol
shed a few tears when Road to Reedham came in
I've always had a strong attraction to drummers 💪👽💅💕
every once and a while i listen to the shobaleader version of coopers world and it hits me like a truck, ridiculous amounts of energy in that track ESPECIALLY in the ending
This is world class musicians in full force
Yeah. These truly are people who understand the artform very well. That drummer is insanely talented.
I didn't think there was enough time to practice for something this awesome.
I Didnt know Squarepusher has a live band. 😍
I love that drummers setup
Holy fuck, how did i miss(subscriber of 5yrs) this boiler room set!!!
Squarepushers alway been such a brilliant dude!
Ive been a *huge* fan of his since "big loda" came out!!
Thanx BR!!!
*"a journey to reedham"!!!! Yes!!!!*
Best show i ever seen
I hate when im late to discover something so great like this! I feel cheated!
I've been listening IDM for a couple of years now, and i didn't know that was even possible to play idm drums live
@Ryan Smith the band is squarepusher plus three trapped tigers. The drummer is also in collosal squid.
Anon ymous I believe it’s Strobes (Chris Montague & Kit Downes) with Adam Betts on drums, rather than TTT
@@utetheband ahh thanks! I figured Adam by the kit and made the jump to TTT
Check out a jamband called the Disco Biscuits... They actually somehow led me to being a Squarepusher fan as a teen. I somehow went from jambands to elextronic music. Lots of IDM. They would bring those guys to their festival every summer and it really opened up my 18 yr old mind to the possibilities of music. But yea theyre a jamband but their drummer is mainly rooted in electronic music. Its not the most accessible music but if u catch em in the right moment it has the ability to be some of the coolest live music ive ever seen
Im just gonna play this and skip around a bit cause I have work to do....
an hours later. played whole thing through twice and repeated some parts and watched some parts slowed down.. Always amazed by Jenkinson's talent and the musicians he surrounds himself with.
I never get tired of watching this.
Epic stuff the great music the creativity its the cutting edge of cyborg musicans.
good music!!! this is the stuff that should be on the radio!!!
Would love to see this live someday
Truly amazing. This is exactly what I want to here in music. Wish there was more of this style!
Love the drumming
I an in awe, this is out of this world.
Staggering in E8, looking at the ruined sink, blaming the broken boiler. #why
That modded 101. #dope
I love you.
dapperwarlock great Sea & Cake tune ;)
Everyone was solo on point but u gotta nail that synth line fan in journey, set quantized looping to 16th note? Sync error in envelope?..either way best audio project on earth atm imo..
Tom, u AMAZE me as always! as does the rest of the band.. no LOVE lost playing keys to pusher tunes live is no ez feat!! just a sync error it seemed? but Shobaone Leader pleases play Tampa or fl sooooooooon!! And love esp @ the man Mr jenkinson I've it, Made impossible music and then play said any possible music live what more could want, trully one of the greatest jazz musicians/ and group of all time impo... beat that naughty bass!! Keep up the great work please!!!!!
I LOVE YOU SHOBALEADER ONE
Amazing!
Just saw these guys at the Imperial two nights ago.
One hell of a show to say the least.
This is different from any other music I have heard that was electronic . I Just heard of Squarepusher yesterday in the car with my son in law & asked what he was listening to-he said Squarepusher Shobaleader One D'Demonstrator. Had to look it up on Amazon & u tube. Definitely going tom be a new fan. learned that they were named the one -then changed to the other. Been around a long time-had no idea. Love some of it, but not all. Still worth a listen to see what I like.
Jeremy Lavallee You should look his studio music, there's definitely something in it for you.
I'd also recommend Aphex Twin, and GoGo Penguin
This is amazing.
NO word of a lie Squarepusher...destroys live!
love this
still love this
amazing, so so so so so good
That's a pretty special performance
I remember seeing Squarepusher at Reading Festival when his sound ended up being all fkd so he couldn't perform. He spent a couple mins shouting at the sound guys over the PA for a minute then ended up just playing the sickest 15 minute bass solo I've ever seen in lieu of a proper performance. Was probably a crappy gig for him but it was an amazing show to watch.
I think it would be incredibly amazing awesome to see these guys cover Amen Brother by the Winstons. A faithful tribute cover. It would be so surreal in this setting!
Tadesan why cover other bands if they can do Squarepusher live with Squarepusher? :D
@@kurakczek Amen Brother has the drum break that's been sampled millions of times by many including tons of Pearsquasher's tracks. That does sound like it'd be amazing. Even more would be if that Pearsquasher/Andre3000 collab actually happened.
Slight Return whoah.
E8 boogie was quite something. The whole set was but that one just made me bounce every fucking where
beautiful music dem playin'..yeah, keep it up!...
WOOOOOOH... the second one is so joyful ... yeAAAAAh
This sound woke me up from a dream!
I can't stop watching a journey to reedham. Everything is crazy tight.
Looking forward to the show in Montreal this summer ! OH HELL YA ! !!!!!!
Wouldn't have thought journey to Reedham possible on drums live like that :D
最高だねえ…
いつかのサマソニで観た
彼らはライブでも変態だった
'kin amazing
Wow..this band is SIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!
We need a FlyLo/Squarepusher/JD Beck and Domi collab.
17:35 this is quite amazing!!!
shoba please release that hello meow cover on a cd or something please its amazing
Cover? You mean rendition, the bassist is squarepusher.
That first track was glorious.. Still lidztening
Crazy! Incredible !

Very Cool

Gareth Lyons The album was a live performance and that was great.
