Modern Indian Konnakol Prog!

[@batweed]

For all of you who don't speak hebrew: on 7:25 yogev says "bro, it'll be alright, it'll be alright" common phrase in israel. Cheers yogev, great video.

[@YogevGabay]

לגמרי !

[@kunjsomaiya4723]

Right after playing sundari Pennae on loop you get this breakdown, awesome.

[@heavenlyactsatheavycost7629]

shreya ghoshal and meshuggah on the same channel was not something i thought i'd see but hey look at that. thanks a lot, this sounds great (also props for the I breakdown; i'd been looking for someone to confirm that rational gaze-esque part, but as you can imagine searching 'I' on google isn't exactly helpful)

[@YogevGabay]

hahahah yes !!

[@ryehlb]

Musicianship on another level.

[@jaivkoltun4948]

Far out !!! Total beyond next level sh#%. Awesome content, explanation and delivery. . . I feel like I just stumbled into an advanced musical algebra class. . . In a good way. . . Blessings. . .

[@CarolineBugala]

W..O.....W.. Thank you for the goosebumps I just had watching the vid! I'm definitely gonna work on that!

[@FernandoCuadro]

hi Yogev, first of all, love you videos!! I'm from uruguay, i first heard of konnakol i think from steve smith, and i find it very interesting. there's like 15 years since i learned that it existed but there's no easy to find places to learn it (specially here in uruguay), so i think that a LOT of people would love some konnakol videos series in order to really learn waht it is, how to practice it, and how to use it for the drum set. So.... pleasse???!! ps. i've been following you since you uploaded the venetian snares cover, so a couple of years

[@YogevGabay]

Ohhh thanks man ! And yeah that Venetian Snares video was a while back ! About learning konnakol, I'm not yet qualified to teach it officially, I kinda use it in how ever I want hahaha

[@fahyuhstahtuh]

​@@YogevGabay ki is pronounced as gi when it follows di(ng)... k becomes g when it immediately follows a nasal consonant in most south Indian language contexts, particularly in tamizh and malayalam. Your videos are really well done and informative. Cheers!

[@YogevGabay]

@@fahyuhstahtuh oh! I thought it was just a matter of what school you go to ! Thanks for clarifying!

[@AManChoosesASlaveObeys]

Nice one Gevs, expanding brains like aways

[@krisnadexter]

After reading the title I thought the video will talk about songs like Take Five or The Mission Impossible Theme, lol. I forget this your channel.

[@NoahWolfe]

dude. this is amazing.

[@YogevGabay]

Glad you think so!

[@spencerj]

Really excited to be the first to answer your proposal: the 16th note triplet comes from the shaker in the intro with the vocals, and the other triplet appears from the tabla at 1:46. Lastly, you play a slick sixtuplet on the floor tom at 4:44

[@YogevGabay]

Weeeeeeelll there's a clearer triplet coming from the drums. WHERREEEEEEE

[@intraterrestrial5035]

5/4 is my favorite time sig

[@P43L1j0]

Man, as a latin musician i a very familiar with "weird" things in music... but this whole indian figures are insane!!! Very dificult and very, very amusing. I like it a lot!! Your videos are just amazing... i am learning so much by just watching your channel. Thank's man!

[@JoaoFerreira-fx3xp]

So excited about the album!

[@tamirleibovich]

Mannnnn !! the best teacher for these crazy staff !! - KAZE MELEH

[@MxMattieMcD]

Cannot wait to hear this album!

[@MladenDragovicMusic]

This is insane! But my most favorite moment is the first Ta on the last section. Just 🤯

[@TalesCunhaOficial]

Other amazing video! Thanks!!

[@UncleRJ]

One day someone gonna play an 18/8 notes but every beat except for the prime number because why not.

[@oscargill423]

Thanks for the idea!

[@Crcmvnt]

Amped for the album!

[@soundsarchaic1438]

This piece in 5 was so amazing last night - you guys completely rocked it at the Village. Truly incredible. So proficient - makes me want to hang up my musicianship. Nice work!

[@YogevGabay]

Oh thankkksssss

[@johnathangodbolt]

Haha super cool, I love it!

[@arthurfurman5362]

you are amazing

[@brucenatelee]

I can't start off songs with an invisible note. Anthrax's "Devil You Know" drum beginning been fucking me up for years."

[@MRZEDDA]

awesome song. Indian singing style mesmerizes me.

[@leilacoelho5458]

i'm dying to find a playlist of Shreya Ghoshal featuring only song with odd time signatures, they are so beautyfulll and giga brain made.

[@briannajar4643]

@yogev The triplet fill is in the first drum break after bar 10 and the 16th note triplet fill is the last one in this entire 26 bar section.

[@YogevGabay]

YYESSSS

[@Burnt_Gerbil]

Konnakol fascinates me. Partly because I can’t count it properly. I understand it and it’s hypnotic. It’s like patting your head and rubbing your belly. Lol. It just takes practice. I need to study it more. 😬👍

[@thomasvigneras5860]

Amazing video, drumming, explanation and musicianship from everyone in your band! Thank you so much for sharing. Has anyone transcribed Yogev's beautiful playing perchance and would like to share it with me?

[@restencourtlaurent840]

A lot of great 5 things on the excellent album of Umpfel "As the Water cover the Sea"

[@chameleon-dream-band-official]

Man, this makes King Crimson sound like 4/4 AB-AB-ABB writers! Very cool 👌

[@Rassalcon]

Didn't get any of the references but enjoyed the music 👍

[@AnnettePhilipOfficial]

Wooooot!

[@rohithyourboat]

Ok but I hear the song in 5/8 so... I'm twice as cool as you!?

[@YogevGabay]

I think you are.

[@Snareric]

I used to think counting math rock and prog metal was hard. But know I'm realizing counting Indian music is even harder. :)

[@marcusknutsson2118]

The triplet fill comes on the last two quarter notes of bar 10 and the 16th note triplet fill comes on the last 8th note of bar 11 I think :D

[@OmerMor]

שיר פצצה!

[@kuisma8]

😍

[@aurelienf284]

Next episode: Why 5/8 and 7/8 are even cooler?

[@studiostelemaque9171]

Nice one 😮. The triplet is it bar 10, the first cool drum break ? And the 16th triplet, I would say the guitar/voice unison bar 24...not sure at all 😅

[@YogevGabay]

hahahahah CLOSE !

[@vittoriosusmel441]

i think the triplet is the "cool drum break" at 3:21, and the sixtuplet is at 4:40 ...maybe?

[@YogevGabay]

YYEESSS

Bar 10? how are you counting? I think I'm counting differently
