black midi - 6 Music Live Room jam

[@neonoh4473]

I’ve never been about for a smaller new band and I can’t express my excitement for the future of black midi. Everyone’s saying it who’s seen there performance on kexp, they’re gonna be huge. Can’t wait for the album.

[@saam6768]

albums been out. its incredible. grab it.

[@brickchains1]

These kids have the juice rn. might drive out to see them play on tour

[@saam6768]

@@brickchains1 you should. the album is pretty rocking but the mix doesn't do the rhythm section justice. The bassist is just as much a beast as the drummer. One of the best shows I have seen in a long time.

How the hell the drummer gets back to the beat after the fill at 6:55 amazes me. 😮

[@TheCrazyN00b1]

i love that they played one song and then started jamming into another one of their songs

[@TheCrazyN00b1]

turns out that jam is part of the song but they made it longer into the next song

Why not upload the whole thing? You missed out Years Ago, which is the track they blend into at the end.

[@lotussprider4462]

Good stuff! I had no problem listening to this, easy to like. Im sure noone is reading this but maybe im saying this to myself more than to you, You should try some exercises in relaxing before, it really is worth it. The first time i played live infront of people i almost shat my pants and could barely move. I played the songs well, but that didnt interest anyone more than other musicians, i remember this clearly, the first day that i really got in the "i dont care" mood and just played it like i enjoyed it, that was the day(actually the day after) I was recruited for bigger job. The first band why entirely based on my own work so i got back to that later again, and with confidence. Now i feel like there is nothing i cant do. I wont say any names, in that way i can freely express myself. Yes as i said im writing this as a remidner to myself mostly. Relaxing and having fun was the absolute key moment in my career.

Fucking genius! Can honestly say the one band I’ve listened to where I genuinely can’t think what their next song will sound remotely like! Fucking love it, hope to see them live soon!

[@moka8267]

Have you heard their latest album yet? If so, did this comment hold?

[@lukeberrie3942]

It’s funny how a completely improvised jam sounds like an actual black midi song haha

[@willr8545]

Luke Berrie it isnt improvised its on the album

[@LiamGervaise]

@@willr8545 only the start

[@willr8545]

@@LiamGervaise yee but they do that in literally all their live sets with every tune. They never stick exactly to the album recordings. It's just a set of sections, harmonic and rhythmic guidelines whatever. guided improv. My point was that it is a black midi tune which is why it sounds like one lol

@Fixxxer Kanji definitely the MASF pedal but the same effect is achievable with the DD6 or in my case the DD20

Kinda sad that you can barely hear the bass.

It's interesting until you find out they're from BRIT school.

[@TheProJuicers1]

surely that makes them more interesting? A completely anti-commercial math rock band coming from an institution famous for pushing clean cut popstars is pretty fucking interesting.

[@jnesive4448]

@@TheProJuicers1 i think a lot of people are under the impression that the BRIT school is some kind of super-elite private institution and not actually a selective state-funded arts school that takes students based on merit which, by the way, is: a good thing!

[@alexy8520]

Wow, you're so cutting.

[@augustusaquaticus4289]

Yh, people get the wrong impression of the Brit school. Look at King Krule and Cosmo Pyke. Anything but ‘clean cut popstars’.

[@EdBartlettTV]

LOL, way to totally miss the point

[@ianburke3991]

WTF is math rock, is it like painting by numbers? I heard a mish mash of influences with no discernible steadfastness. Rhythmically they were all over the place. Even prog-rockers had rhythm.

@@daviedovey Oh I'm terrible at picking stuff that's representative of my overall taste, but I'll have a look at what I've been listening to lately. Oddly enough, I enjoy Black Country New Road quite a bit (and it seems they're active in the same circles as black midi, tho correct me if I'm wrong which I could well be), even if their vocalist does occasionally annoy me I like their songs a lot. Other than them, lately I've been listening to a lot of, to name a few, The Pop Group, Fire! Orchestra, Hey Colossus, Half Man Half Biscuit, Gnod, Young Fathers.
