DIRTY LOOPS "Follow the Light" Ft. Cory Wong // Audio Engineer & Wifey React

[@hackapump]

Some of those horn players are Prince alums, so you know they're bringing the funk. They play regularly with Cory - (who's from Minneapolis as well) - in his band Cory & The Wong Notes. But he's probably most known for being part of the insanely great Vulfpeck. To really hear the horn section shine in this collab, check out their cover of Thriller - they take a funky 4/4 banger and squeeze it into 12/8 time. And the horn section is worth the price of admission alone.

Oh yeah thanks for the Vulfpeck rabbit trail. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJnbgqJ6odlld7csi=Oxz3zgWIGa_Fl_Gu

Oh yeaaaah love this reminds me of the 1978 to 1984 era ! Being married & dancing with my Liza !!! May she rest in peace 😮‍💨

[@lottawiklund8606]

Hahaha, no, there's no official name for Dirty Loops fans, as far as I know. The reason people say someone gets loopified when becoming a fan, is partly because the name of their first album is "Loopified", and "loopifying" is also the term they themselves use jokingly to describe their process of creating music, which is to take or write a rather simple pop melody and then write an insanely complex arrangement for it in their own very special way. 😁

[@ExclusivelyReclusive1]

Fun fact. Cory wong and Dirty loops did a whole album during covid, they never met personally during the making of the album. During this video they are not in the same room. Dirty loops are in Sweden while Cory wong and the guys are in the U.S. They just got the same kind of background and edited it.

[@DanSpomer]

And Aron, the drummer, does all the video editing, I believe in every one of their videos.

[@musikbyjh]

Love these tasty tidbits, thank you BOTH!!! So impressive. We just LOVE the dynamic between each of the artists.

[@MotelsonMars]

GREAT JOB MELLI! Thank you for bringing the joy of Dirty Loops to a new audience! 🥰

[@bjornbear6856]

Yes! I love DL! Henrik is a special one, but I think "you all" forget Aron alot... He is soo underrated as a drummer and rarely get's the credit he deserves. Just listen to the groove in this song and what he does on the drums. It's so easy to get lost in the glammer of Henrik and Jonah, but they both need the foundation of Arons drums to lean on so... To me Aron is a badass drummer! Be safe

[@ingefiddle]

Yes!!

[@henrikcollin4727]

Yes, they just finished their tour in USA.. For next.. I would suggest their cover of Thriller together with cory wong and the brass section..

[@jeffbaranowski6695]

You're just getting started. Be prepared for jaw dropping music. Check out their 3 piece "coffee break is over"! Keys, bass, and drums - no vocals. It's killer.

[@rogerstarkey5390]

Jeremy, Jillian.... Want to see where Cory came from? Want some Kosher Funk? Want to see a band with a song actually CALLED "CORY WONG"? (Also, They're absolutely Barking Mad!!) VULFPECK Start with Vulfpeck Live at Bonnaroo It's a concert, But just go from the start, or pick a track..... It's all good . WEAR A BATHROBE!! It's MANDATORY OR Vulfpeck Live at Madison Square Garden

[@Beaufortlawrence]

Gotta give Henrik the stank face! Highest compliment for a bass player 🤘🏼

[@myblissjewelry]

Aron actually uses that cymbal in Work Sh- out. Watch it during the drum solo 🙂

[@cynthiamiller483]

I couldn’t help it, so I watched again! I finally caught Grace’s look. Do they call it stank face?

[@musikbyjh]

LOL! So great, Cyd. Not sure if they do...we do know it's a commonly used word for that lemon face!! ;-)

[@cynthiamiller483]

This is a Saturday date-night sound with a big dance floor! Wow…great vocals!! Everything I’m hearing is so intentional from the drums to the bass to the brass and woodwinds and keys!!! I could listen to this all day. What a great request today, Mellie. I’m definitely loopified!!! What a fantastic reaction and all the instructions about where to place mics. So exciting!!!!! Catch you tomorrow afternoon 🎶 Cyd

[@musikbyjh]

Thanks, Cyd. Happy Saturday!!! Wasn't this FUN?!?!? We have lots more Dirty Loops coming, and pretty confident you'll enjoy!!

[@kingvii7250]

I love Dirty Loops but also love you guys. You're so funny and lovely. Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪

[@tokskallez]

Love your take on Dirty Loops and await more of your reactions to them - there´s a plenty to discover and enjoy - Thanks! ❤

[@Tassilago]

I'm so happy I'm not a reactor. I can go 'Fruit Looping' all day long 🤸🎵 🎶. Glad I can follow your journey, though. Thank you!

[@fiddlestix3025]

😂

[@rebeccarose7405]

Thanks to Melli for the great request! Already added the whole album to my collection (because unlike J & J, I don't have to wait!). Looking forward to more stank face soon! ❤🎶

[@AudioVile]

LOVE your enthusiasm for these amazing musicians and instrumentalists! EVERY time they blow my mind. I recently stumbled across their piece called "Turbo." I hope your rabbit hole journey takes you there soon. I think it's the most complex and intricate piece I've heard from them thus far. ANYTHING you listen to by them will be outstanding!

[@ingefiddle]

‘Turbo’ Is insane 🔥🔥🔥

[@johanribaeus]

The way she walks is a definite must :-).

[@DarrenLoPrinzi]

So glad to catch you at the beginning of your Dirty Loops journey! Here are my suggestions: - Hit Me - Next to You - Breakdown - Over the Horizon (they wrote this off the 5-note Galaxy phone ringtone and it’s SICK) - Ta Fete - Baby (Justin Bieber cover!) - The Way She Walks …and Jonah Nilsson’s solo stuff: - Diamond Ring (featuring Steve Vai) - Coffee Break (featuring Richard Bona) - Bad They are super-musicians on a different level!!!

[@musikbyjh]

Great list, thank you!! Lots more DL coming soon!

[@AudioVile]

Also... In that clip of the saxes, she's playing an alto, and he's playing a baritone.

[@TheAsphyx666]

Guys, if you haven't done Snarky Puppy's "Lingus" (the "We Like It Here" live recording), you NEED to do it. I guarantee it will blow your fucking minds!

[@AmbassadorJenks7086]

I'm sure by now you know they were in different parts of the world when they performed but, did you know that Aron the master of all spliced it and edited together. Besides being a next level drummer, he can do it all. Ambassador Jenks

[@kingvii7250]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHW5mZhsZZafq7ssi=oANHTXavfij2jTMk Dirty loops: "Where's The Beat" a song ment for Japan release. It has a bit of everything tucked into a pop song in around 3 minutes. It's a hidden gem. I'm 60 yo and love it!!

[@ellenstergaardgravesen1011]

Love your Dirty Loops reactions! And thanks for introducing 2SAXY - Grace Kelly is amazing so definitely going to check that out!

[@sameochannel7637]

Grace is playing a Alto sax, and the guy with the big sax (Leo) is playing a baritone :)

[@michaelriley8101]

Really enjoyed your reactions, guys! Thanks! Cheers to you!

[@mike4769]

Please dont forget their older albums.

[@johnnyjohansson143]

Hello, oh what a nice reaction :-) you know Dirty Loops must be from another planet considering their musicality and innovation in the music I think you would be blown a way if you do a reaction on Next to you absolutely incredible and.... yes they can play everything live, try to buy tickets and you will understand what I mean. Hugs from Gotehnburg Sweden //Johnny

[@d93jno]

There's a really great interview with Dirty Loops on Rick Beato's channel.

[@musikbyjh]

Love Rick Beato! We'll check it out, thanks!!

[@lukasneuner4760]

You'll probably get a bunch of recommendations for more Dirty Loops, and they are amazing! But let me just be the one saying you reeeeeally should also check out Cory Wong! Pure concentrated funk with and INCREDIBLE horn section and a creative and suuuper groovy drummer. (actually everyone in that band Is amazing!) I would recommend their recent video: "Flamingo" // Live in London . or for something unusual but super fun I'd watch: Tiny Instruments "Pebbles" and "Bluebird" (feat. Sierra Hull) . That one in particular would be fun for Matt to see (don't wanna spoil it but the title of that one might give you a hint.)

[@blueisback3683]

Okay, for the best musicians I have a favorite reactor and you guys just took my Dirty Loops reactor, had to subscribe. Love you two, can't to wait for more and too saxy was great. Going to check out your other reactions. Honestly, fantastic reaction. And I prepared to be a Fruit Loop.

[@fiddlestix3025]

Thanks for another DLoops reaction, guys! It’s all been said here, but yeah, Cory and his horns recorded and filmed all their bits in the US, Minneapolis, whilst DLoops did their thing in Sweden. They bought identical props (carpet, lighting, etc), set up identical camera and lighting angles, and later Aron edited the visuals together. Also his playing on this track 🔥🔥🔥 The intro to this track is taken from Baywatch, hence Pamela Anderson making an appearance later on in the credits ;) Cory and Henrik have a lil talk about the making of this album on Cory’s Wong Notes Podcast, and it’s as much fun as it is informative. Just to add a bit to what’s been said about his horns here: Some of them are members of the Horn Heads, a legendary group of session horn players who toured and recorded with Prince and many other Greats. Dive into the rest of this album, and you’ll discover some genius horn playing. As well as more solos by Henrik ;) He’s a beast on bass… But so is Aron on drums -check out some of his fills here on this track 😱 “Thriller”, “Turbo” and “Ring of Saturn” are three more tunes from this album who come with a video. The rest is audio only. Still, mindblowing, all of it. And thanks to Millie again for the support 🙏 It’s such a pleasure to listen to Dirty Loops again through your ears and appreciation, almost as if for the first time ☺️✌️👍🤘👌 Looking forward to the rest!

[@fiddlestix3025]

Oh ya and Grace Kelly 💙💜👍

[@andersgranstrom7128]

Great reaction, guys!! 🙂"Hit me!" would be an awesome next-song!! Thanks! 🙂

[@musikbyjh]

Coming soon, thank you very much!

[@andersgranstrom7128]

@@musikbyjh 😍Looking forward to it! You guys have great taste in music as well as great output/energy!

[@miff227]

the intro-outro definitely inspired by the Baywatch theme and the first two lines of the themesong are "Some people stand in the darkness Afraid to step into the light" - so another reference there. My favourite DL song, is JUST SO FUN-KY

[@fiddlestix3025]

☺️ didn’t know that lyrics-bit… that’s fun 😉

[@michaellust]

❤❤❤💯🇸🇪

[@Coffeecrazy9]

I had the opportunity to work with Cory with the band Hit Machine (Portland Or) on the song “You with Me”. Check it out, it’s all Cory. He tracked his guitars in Minneapolis

[@FStDrummer]

The phrase at the end of the bass solo is actually a typical Jazz phrase, but the way they put it in and the accuracy they perform it with - WOW!! Here it is written out for the drums: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ep3Tf6mcbbylnq8

[@buddystewart2020]

That's called bass face dude. I played a Marriott Hotel gig once in Worcester Mass and Gordan Lightfoot was in the the room. When we had finished the set, with a Mothers Finest tune, I think it was Rain, but it might have been something else, anyway, Gordan came up to me and called me bass face and shook my hand. lol, he was a little drunk, but he was nice.

[@TheAsphyx666]

Apart from being musically impeccable, this such a great tune! I always say that if this song doesn't put you in a good mood, you don't have a heart.

[@GES8215]

How about all them beautiful synth pads in the background

The cymbal is called a China i use two. Ambassador Jenks

Guys *PLEASE* do Turbo next

[@acousticbutler]

3:1 rule multiple microphones on the same sound source need to be three times the distance from each other than they are from the sound source. I love your reaction.

[@musikbyjh]

thank you x 2!!!

[@mykemech]

I'm thrilled that you recognized Grace!!! She seems to have gotten way back 4th billing in these.

[@musikbyjh]

Grace is incredible!! Jeremy loves watching her social media.

Coming in a couple weeks!!

[@milesdust3465]

This is not a live-recording.

[@milesdust3465]

Check out when wackojacko got a signed guitar from Paco de Lucia.

[@marienvanraan760]

You are right, it is not live on the spot. It is a composition of live fragments in the studio. But you have to see them live. They are awesome.

[@milesdust3465]

@@marienvanraan760 That I do not know and yes, I have seen them live and they are totally out of this world. But that was not the subject. Yanks have some sort of thinking, that everything that they see is live. That was my point. By the way, I saw Matteo Mancuso live as an introduction to Marcus Miller Band here in the south of Italy a couple of weeks ago. Amazing.
