NIKKOLLECTIVE feat. The Pocket Queen | Keyscape Sessions

- čas přidán 21. 04. 2020
- A few months ago, we decided to test how well Keyscape works onstage in a large, live band setting and see how well it would hold up sonically with a lot of live instruments.
Since we are big fans of Nikko Ielasi - a killer up-and-coming player in LA, we knew that his funky group NikKollective would be ideal to come over and shoot a smokin' live version of their song “A Quest 4 Pocket” from their new album, “NikKollective Vol.2"
They are soooo TIGHT and we had an absolute blast! :-)
And BTW… if you haven’t seen The Pocket Queen’s videos, check her out… she is amazing!

Very grateful for everyone and their kind words of support!!! Thank you so much Spectrasonics for having me on board!! I just want to say that every single day I’m amazed at the quality of your sounds!! The detail, the reality and the dynamics. Also, what a MIX!! To much more music together!! 🎶❤️
Very impressed Nikko. I will deffo check you out and tell my muso friends to do the same. Massive sound, and so tight! Your band is incredible, and Joe Cleveland is amazing.
dude...your bass player is crushing it.
@@gcavy1 Joe Cleveland is a bad bad bad bad man on bass!!!!!
@@chriswright2553 He is!! Thank you so much for your kind words :)
Deep Chills,Over The Top Thrills! I am so inspired with your music(that cleanses my soul) and your determination to move forward,up and beyond your (small) setback;i say small because of an apparent "Blessing-In-Disguise" moment in your life that has surely moved you into an upper league of the spiritual kind that is electrifying to say the least. I believe greater things are coming your way. A selfless move on your part as all of you together create a deep,rich soul experience and where the chills are created. I am sure to keep my eye and ear on all of you and hope that one day you will be able to have a concert in the Portland,Oregon area. Thank-You, All Of You for Manifesting for all of us. L.L.
My God when you've got the Pocket Queen and a solid bass player your headed no where but up I love this jam!
The mix is so amazing ... Huge respect to the sounds engineers here !
Thank you! :)
Exactly what I said as I was listening then saw your comment...lol
+1 - Outstanding sound...absolutely as good as it can be - the sound is as tight as the band are!
@@CharlesDeWayneold That's not often that i am struck by the quality of the sound on youtube !
Pocket Queen killllin iiiiit!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥 I'm the Proud pastor of Nikko AND "The Pocket Queen"! This is amazing guys!
Chad Brown thanks Pastor!! 🎶👍🏻
Thank you pastor for raising him good 🙏😘🙌 Praise be to God amen 🙌🙏
They're Christian? Oh wow! Give the Lord a thank you.
Christians?...COOL, this is a wonderful video to wake up to at 5:53am for the music & the the brotherhood
POCKET QUEEN... I LOVE YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW LOVELY SENSITIVE DRUMMER
A concert like this would be great ;
Basses = Trilian
Drums = RMX
Keyboards = Keyscape
Synthesizers = Omnisphere
It's just an idea.Thanks NikKollective and Pocket Queen.
Indeed, after watching the realistic bass sounds of Trillian I got the same idea...although I did appreciate the fresheness and groove of such an energetic live session. Anyway, I would be amazed at watching the same piece played out of Spectrasonics marvellous samples!
That girl is killin on drums!
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN THE POCKET QUEEN GET DOWN WITH OTHER MUSICIANS!!! I'VE BEEN SLEEPING SOMEWHERE??!!
😂😂😂😂. She is the truth!!!!!!
What a Drummer!!!!!!
Whatever they're paying the drummer they need to double it, her groove is off the chart amazing.
That snare sound was crisp, and they way she played those ghost notes where perfect. Amazing amazing drummer omg.
Love this. These young people are the future. In this current time of negativity, disease, and racial tension. I believe THIS right hear figuratively is God's real plan and intention. Watch and listen to these babies( I'm almost 65) Black, White, Female, diverse cultures and nationalities, I believe the keyboardist, Nikko is Italian, "working" , " playing" together. Young sister on drums calls herself " The Pocket Queen, played a Beyonce. Recognize some o the other musicians too from Berkely.
And the hits just keep on coming folks!...
I am a proud owner of the KEYSCAPES software and its is an absolute must have! Thank you spectrasonics!
It's completely a different level when great musicians get together to play a great song by Nikko. Having pocket queen in the mix was fantastic. She's simply and classically a great drummer! A++++ for this masterpiece!
Even the name „the pocket QUEEN“ is an understatement! Fantastic Drumming! Everyone else is fantastic too!
Pocket Supreme Galactic Empress
Bass guitar is on point. As is every other musician to be fair 😁
Thank you, everyone!!! This is amazing.
🙂👍‼️Excellent mixing engineers!!!!
Thanks for listening
Bro. Nikko, Jordan, TPQ, Ariza and Joe in the same rhythm section is ILLEGAL
I am a better human being for having listened to these wonderful musicians.
To the 23 people who put a thumbs down, please reserve your ticket to Mars and leave the planet when said tickets become available.
LAWD HAVE MERCY!!!!! Pocket Queen getting busy as usual and this band is PHENOMENAL!
When you have Taylor on the drums, nothing can go wrong. She never plays anything just to show off, her chops go so much deeper than that.
This is what called Jamin 😍 my soul is overwhelming 😘 hallelujah for now 🙌🙏👌
Every musician in this video is brilliant, but man... DAT BASS!!!
Did you seriously just record one song? Where is the rest! I NEED MORE!
Heavy agree.
Been following this guy from Berklee days. Talented man surrounded by fabulous musicians.
Marius Small-Smith appreciate your support !!!
Ok Marius, so that's were I'd heard of the Nikkollective, Berklee! Yep, over the years, Ive watched some of there vids from Berklee, and they were tight then too. Peace 😎
Keyscape have been on my mind from day one i think now is the time to make is come to my laptop.
Great Bass player👍🏻
Joe Cleveland is the MAN!!
Whoever did the mics and mix on the drums should be paid double.
Re Mix, Thanks! :)
i have simultaneously been taken to school and church
LOVE THIS!! Great comment ahuahuahuaha
What a discovery!
I'm riding these grooves all the way to funky town
Happy to have Keyscape... More than happy to have Omnisphere! Thanks Spectrasonics.

I love this keyboard-heavy ... funky ... great composition ... the horns ... the bass ... the tight and simultaneously flexible drumming ...
Well, I just love *all* of it!
The initial piano riff somehow reminds me of Gentle Giant.
fantastic playing! And yes, the Spectrasonics stuff sounds great too :-)
This piece has me PRAYING that we can get back to hearing Live show gatherings maybe this summer in parks and Rooftops!!
I see Pocket Queen...i click!!!
Piano solo was filthy nasty. Those chord syncopations yes please
Steven Schelling thank you so much for your kind words!!
4:24 is one of the tastiest blues licks I've ever heard

My Dear PQ. I learned SO much from you, in a very short time... I started drumming about the age of 10, but had a breake of 30 years, from the age of 23... When I got back you (PQ), was one of the first drummers I heard... YOU changed my world and my way of drumming !!... THANK YOU Dear Pocket Queen !!! 😉😉😘😘
