â©Video Question: How important is pocket playing to you when you listen to music?
For live content catch me on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/drumrolltony
In the context of this track? Pocket is everything!
Pocket playing is essential.
Pocket playing is a grounding mechanism that allows all the other musical pieces to sit properly in the ears of the listener. It is vital and critical for every drummer to develop that skill.
I like to live in pockets. Check out the Fearless Flyers Pockets so deep you might get lost. Their Madison Square Garden video is epic
this song definately gives me some major TOWER OF POWER vibes !!!!
Aaron the drummer was largely responsible for all the set-up and production of the video work-multi talented on so many levels. Love your reactions. Informed, funny, enthusiastic and the replays are great. A) some things deserve more than one take and B) when you replay stuff you always handle in a very engaging fashion. Great work on so many levels. You deserve-and I'm guessing you'll end up with so many more subscriptions than you currently have. C'mon people support the good stuff!
Also: Cory Wong has a podcast and Henrik was a guest once. Before the actual interview, Cory said that he and Aron talked about how they'd do the videos. They got real specific with heights and measurements and stuff. Aron sent Cory a picture of what DL'S set would look like. So Cory rented the same type of lights DLs had been using in previous videos, got the same type of camera, and got a similar type of rug. All conversations, making the album, and doing the videos was all done virtually.
That's very cool. I should probably listen to the podcast
@@DrumRollTonyReacts it's called Wong Notes on Spotify.
@@JamilaGomez82 Ty much!
@@DrumRollTonyReacts very interesting and entertainingâŠ
The Musical knowledge/ Talent of the Trombone player who writes all of what your listening too is so Freaking out there. Genius
I've been patiently waiting for some new music to hit the scene for a long time, and I just recently discovered Dirty Loops. They are on another level, almost from another dimension. I can't get enough of them. I get in my car and all I'm listening to is Dirty Loops. Such amazing, talented musicians. And from their interview with Rick Beato, they're really humble and sweet guys. I've never seen a band have so much fun performing together.
Cory Wong's band is really, really great. If you ever get a chance, you should watch his Paisley Park session. Some of the same members in these videos are in that session and some others. It's really entertaining.
Tony, thanks for doing the reaction to Turbo. You have a great ear and pick things out that I didn't notice even after listening to these songs repeatedly over the past 6 months. I think you're going to dig Rings of Saturn. Totally not a typical Dirty Loops vibe but awesome in a whole different way. You will also get a nice surprise from the insane sax soloist from Turbo.
Thanks! I'm really enjoying doing these.
Dude, your reaction is such a blast to watch. Genuine.
Appreciate you
Thanks for another rad reaction, Tony!
This tune is absolute fire, one crazy rollercoaster ride, and every single one of these players is in the pocket 150%! đ„đ„đ„
Iâm guessing that Michael Nelson (trombone) wrote the horn arrangements on this one. Itâs just dope, what can you sayâŠ
Whatâs happening in that horn B section, from what Iâm hearing, is syncopated beats in the trumpets over 16th runs in the saxes etc., over a IV7, -a guess only.
The articulation is nuts tooâŠ
This track, for me has Cory Wong written all over it (check out his âJet Screamerâ).
Someone mentioned that some of those tracks on Turbo were more written by Cory, others more by the Loops.
But again, itâs just a guess.
Re that visual set-up: apparently both bands went through great lengths to get the same carpets, lighting style (also height of lamps etc.) and camera setups, to achieve a coherent look. Pretty crazy and funny đ
Man, and those solos, Henrikâs and Kenni Holmenâs! So jazzy and so funky!
For another, very different solo from Henrik, check out Dirty Loopsâ âWorld on Fireâ đ„
The fourth number from this album which has a video is âRing of Saturnâ, very different to all the other ones.
Btw, I just love how you point out all these things Iâve certainly never heard, like that percussion in the breakdown, how the bass goes down to make way for other instrumental features, and so much more.
It gives me even more respect for these dudes, their music writing and arranging skills and their ensemble playing, dang!
Itâs turbo learning for me, for sure ;)
Thanks đ
Hey, this is a great comment! Thank you for watching đ¶đ»
No need to apologize about stopping. The real musicians are with you!
I'm glad to hear it!
That is so TIGHT!!!
It really is đ€đ¶
Thanks for your joyful reaction! đ
Duuude, the drummer is tight as heell! đ„ And that snare drum sound! đ„”
You gotta see 'heading down to bunkers'from the Paisley Park session. Kenni does a dueling sax solo with himself đ€Ż
You 'Da Man' Tony. You don't miss what I'm sure many others miss.
Watup Wade! Thanks for the nice comment
So crisp !
This reminds me so much of everything I loved about Tower of Power.
I totally agree with you on the brass section fill at the beginning. That was the song!
đ»
Aaron (drummer) is the one who edit these videos, the man is talented af lol
Wow. Edits as well. Lol epic
Yeah, Estanislao, he edits all of Dirty Loopsâ vids as well.
Amazing.
On top he often comes up with the DL songs, or parts of them, and also with the lyrics, at least the sound and the gist of them ;)
Heâll make up nonsense lyrics and give them to Jonah, telling him to change them but to keep the âsoundâ of them, especially of the end syllables.
Heâs even told Henrik once what riff to play, a hideously difficult thing. When Henrik said: âna man, canât do this one!â Aron just said: âyeah you can, just go and practice it.â đ€Ł
Man, -Aronâs got everything, not just the best snare sound ever đđ
Wow, Tony ! I love your intensity when dissecting the musical elements of a great song like this along with the infectious smile and the musician's laugh in all the right places. A real joy all the way around ! Takes the listening experience to a whole other level. Keep up the wonderful work, and rewind as much as it takes to soak it all in !
Well said!! đđ»đ
Thank you for all your great reactions! Always a treat to see. There's soooo much Tower Of Power in this song, that I almost can see those old gentlemen before me. The musicianship is almost unreal and out of this world. Keep up the good work man! Greetings from Sweden - the home of Dirty Loops (honored to be a swede!)
Speaking as a vfx artist, they probably had the whole room setup (with all lights and all rugs) for both shoots, it'd make it much easier to set up shots and have lighting be consistent for both halves. A lilttle roto in the wide shots to have the shadows spill to the other side.
That makes sense
There's a video on YT where they discuss the process.. Same lighting, setup, cameras and angles to make the base material as similar as possible. Obviously the tune is pre recorded during the shoot so they can focus entirely on the video part and they can get "reactions" to each other as they know what's there/coming in advance. Nothing wrong with that clearly as it makes for a better final product.
@@blazemonger1 Are you telling me that they recorded that bass solo, and then he mimed it for the video? With all those triplets or 5 tuplets or whatever?
@@lorraineb682 no. Each half is their performance. DL laid down the rhythm section first while filming. Then Cory and crew would later record and film their parts along to the DL parts
@@KenVallejos In another video, the sax player reacted to the bass player - Follow the Light @ 3:12
Watching your DL reactions is like putting the lovely lights up on an already really nicely decorated Christmas tree. Just extra sparkle all the way!! I usually tend to get annoyed when reactors start/stop, but your âfillsâ adds to the experience. So once again, great work getting done here. âïžđ
You should also try Next to You by dirty loops. It's awesome
Will do
As much as I think that all the guys in Dirty Loops are some of the greatest musicians in the World, that horn section is like Duke Ellington had a baby with Tower of Power! Awesome!
Great Tune! You would also enjoy "Next To You" and "Rock You".
Michael Nelson, back right, writes their horn section pieces. He's widely known as a First Call horn arranger / writer...
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..... đ
Waiting for the reaction for the rest of f...ng amazing songs that this greatest band have.
Regards.
Here is another thing from Jonah Nilsson which will blow your top off... Coffee Break with Richard Bona on Bass. You wonÂŽt regret it ;-)
Love itđ. Pleeeeease do âCoffee break is overâ at some point. One of my favorites
Watching this superb reaction video to a superb tune again, Iâm again struck by the amount of percussion going on in the background⊠I searched everywhere for a credit to a percussionist, but found none. Either Aron is recording it himself, or Dirty Loops use their percussionist Andrea Ekstedt to provide that delicious percussive background landscape.
It adds so much-.
And having a background on Latin percussion, Andreas brings that feel to so many of their tunes.
Loving it!
Also, Henrikâs solo and his insane use of rhythm: it strikes me that he calls it his weaker areaâŠ
Heâs definitely done the work there đ„â ïžđ„
And who knows, potentially this bass solo was even written by Aron, no kiddingâŠ.
Considering doing another Dirty Loops reaction sometime soon, Tony?
Iâm hanging out for one âșïž
Cheers đđ
I need to. I just bought VIP tickets to their Seattle show in a few months
@@DrumRollTonyReacts whoohooo! đ
Parts of Henrik's bass solo sounds a bit like a tribute to "Vic's Jam" with Wooten and Greg Bissonette I think
Yes đ
Now to completely finish melting your brain: According to a very recent interview that another YT drummer reactor did with Henrik: *Aron writes **_all_** the bass parts.*
I have to agree with you on the editing of this video. Hats off to Aaron, who is the editor-in-chief of all their videos. Along with Simon Petren. If you look closely at the carpets, they are slightly different, and placed at different angles. I'm stumped at how they got the shadow work in there. And that's not to mention the overlap of the lights. I've tried really hard to find the separation line, and I Just Can't. My wife and I went to see Rick Braun and Boney James a while back and it started with Rick, then Boney, then the 2 of them together. Awesome! Wouldn't you love a concert with Cory and the Wong Notes , and Dirty Loops done the same way? Ohhhh..... baby! These cats have made a complete fanboy out of this 74 year old!!
P.S. Music is difficult to listen to without Good pocket. Just sayin.
Everything is amazing, but as a former trumpet player, the horn work here is absolutely spectacular. No WAY I could have handled those brass riffs, even at my very best. I really appreciate YOUR appreciation and analysis! Great reaction!
I've got tickets to see both these groups this year individually from each other but I'm so excited
@@DrumRollTonyReacts That would make you the envy of anyone who has ever heard of them!!! Obviously, you need to have a special session to debrief us!! Pretty please???
@@AudioVile I am sure ill make a video about it đ€đ€
No one whoâs reacted/reviewed Turbo has commented on Jonahâs keyboard work, specifically the shots of him playing what looks to be exactly what the horn section is playingâŠâŠnote for note!
I saw it. Seemed pretty obvious it was a unison lick and honestly not super demanding as it's keyboard. The really impressive part are the horns as the demand to do that lick is much greater. That's why I didn't bring it up
@@DrumRollTonyReacts I have to think that Jonah writes the arrangements.
@@alcraig1 I wrote all the horns on this one.
@@Bone2BWildMusic Well done. What did you have to start with? A rough demo? A chart?
@@alcraig1 Thanks. The process for each song on this album was different. In this case, I got a final guitar/bass/drum track, including the bass solo and the intro/ending lick and no other melodic content. Jonah added the organ after we tracked the horns.
cory and viktor played this song live in phily. must check it out!
Pretty cool that Victor Wooten was one of Henrik's main inspirations over the years and now Victor is doing Henrik's bass lines.... Full circle :)
So groovy. I can't seem to catch what type of sound is coming out of that keyboard?
If you really like the horn section look them up, they are Hornheads. The blue hair Asian girl is Grace Kelly she is very good look her up.
Aron is the king of the snare rolls!
Definitely do Direct Flyte!
Grace Kelly on bari.
Shout out to mixing engineer. Sheesh!
It's so good it hurts. This immediately made me think it should be on the Cowboy Bebop OST. Josh Eppard, the drummer from Coheed and Cambria just put out a few playthrough videos. I feel like he gets overlooked a lot, I'd love to see your take on his playthrough of Love Murder One!
You should really chack out the fearless flyers, Cory, Mark Letieri, Joe Dart and Nate Smith. Low Volume funk at its best. Anything from their Madison Square garden show would suffice.
I have loved your Dirty Loops reactions, and am impatiently waiting for this one to premiere (~12 hours to go âŠ). While I am waiting, I will throw out a request. Please react to Cory Wongâs latest: Jet Screamer, czcams.com/video/QSYcXFfotCk/video.html, released about 8 days ago. I think youâll like it. I havenât been able to stop watching it. The horn section is insane.
The videos are carefully cropped to hide the seam, and then they masterly color grade each so that all the color tones, hi-lites, etc. all match between the two halves. Aron shows up in credits for the video editing often... so he knows his way around a video editing suite, possibly like Davinci Resolve, which has a FREE version with all its color grading capabilities, and has been used for movies like Fast & Furious... Resolve became famous for its ease of color grading with its tools and should get a look for your videos. Tons of tutorials on YT.
That's so cool
Interesting -thanks đ
You need to have a look at their âBabyâ by Justin bieber. Itâs one of the first tracks on YT. Itâs amazing.
Could you do a video analyzing all metal gear rising boss themes? They are great. When you look up mgr all boss themes the first thing that shows up should be a 20 or so minute video with all the songs in order and it even has lyrics on the screen
Tony could you pls react to the themes from jojo main characters or villains? I recommend the main characters, you also already heard one theme in another video. But the villains are god too.
I'd be happy if you'd do it.
Take a chance on me- domi & jd beck
Aron is so deep in the pocket he can't make change.
U should 100% react to the guilty gear strive character themes
If you want some more funk godness, you have to listen to the man Louis Cole!!, how nobody has recomended him!?!!
Please check out a band call Snarky Puppy. Musically they will blow your mind!! Check out â What About Meâ or âPineapple â
I have done a few of their songs on this channel
Hey Tony, can you react to Hanya Rindu by Andmesh Kamaleng? it has a subtitle. trust me this is a very emotional song, you won't regret this request from me :)
What is pocket playing?
He is playing that back beat perfectly in time. We have those strong set of basic rhythms on the snare and bass drum keeping it funky sounding and holding the band SOLIDLY in time. 'In the pocket'
Thank you!
Anything by alip ba ta, you will be amazed
Hi.ăăă«ăĄăŻ kon-niti-haïŒïŒGood afternoonïŒïŒ
A nice instrumental band! I like the horn section & bass guitar.
There is also a band called "Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra" in Japan.
They appeared at the closing ceremony of the Olympics.(Tokyo2020)

There are better bands than this on all levels. Guitar. drums, horns .. All of it.. Will you just shut up and listen...
Everyone,... Craig here is in a bad mood and is a bit insecure. Jokes aside I can't fathom how you don't appreciate the talent in this video. It says lots about your musicianship. And ummmm No, I will not shut up in my own video.
