Thundercat is honestly one of the most supreme musicians of this era. Every song of his completely oozes funk and it's incredible that he's slept on so much!

[@abcrx32j]

Facts. His music is funny and accessible even if it's not really that simple. This kind of shit has the potential to give jazz a huge push into a modern spotlight

[@apa.7086]

4 life

[@RayZappa]

Bootsy has always been my hero, but this guy Thundercat is something else!

[@plynwithfire]

​@@RayZappaalways said hes modern day boots👍🏽

[@plynwithfire]

​@@abcrx32jhis lyrics are that of a 5 year old love note lol but the music is incredible. Musicians is top tier 👌🏽

[@maceomaceo11]

No, that's the way JD Beck's drums sound. Sounding like a drum machine is kinda his thing.

[@jaeometryjones5000]

Nah hes talking about the actual soundwave of the drums not the playing. A Drum machine could never btw.

[@gr4ndv1ll3]

@@jaeometryjones5000 No, literally, that's how JD's drums sound. He dampens the hell out of them with towels to get them as tight, dry, and dead as possible.

[@nickburlton5821]

Love that this gets increasingly ‘jazz club’ as it goes on 😅

[@garneleh]

Thundercat live is phenomenal - if you like weirdish jazz/fusion/future stuff, check out Louis Cole as well as Knower.

[@l3g0maker]

Louis cole is doing "a lot of creative shit"

[@Diggy22]

Thundercat loves to party with Louis Cole 🍸😁

[@plynwithfire]

Overtime 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

so much life being lived in that performance - you're so right!! Loved this one, man.

[@kreyesdevillegas]

Hi, David! I love Thundercat......I don't know if his talent drives his musical iconoclasm or if his musical iconoclasm drives his talent....maybe both....but he's thumping the crap outta that huge bass of his.....thanks for sharing this video, as well as your thoughtful, instinctive, informative comments and insights

[@radiofifteen3196]

Shout out to Domi and JD Beck on drums and keyboards in the background

[@vapebomb27]

I you like this you should check out Tash Sultana tiny desk concert. Super funky with a bit of reggae, blues and soul. Super awesome music. I still cant get over how much I enjoy your content. You deserve a billion subs

[@MusicShed]

Ty, ur very nice!

[@lordfizzz]

such a good setttt

[@metalahhhhhhhhhhhh]

Thats 2 count em 2 legendary bassist to come out of Suicidal Tendencies, thats why I love that band so much

[@xavierbateman4423]

Such a good reaction and analysis, I had to subscribe

[@MarkPattersonAccentMarkPhoto]

Great reaction video! That trading solos section is so ridiculous. Liked and subbed!

[@JoshuaBarrio]

Its crazy how Suicidal Tendencies have had. Thundercat, Robert Trujillo, Thomas Pridgen, and Dave Lombardo record albums and tour with them.

[@joeyclemenza7339]

who would've thought that ariana grande had a voice for jazz.... and can actually harmonize with another singer as a BACKING VOCALIST?! Thundercat never ceases to just completely amaze me. he's the most exciting, unique and revolutionary musician of the past 30 years. his is a sound that excites jazz purists, funk nostalgists, hip-hop heads and pop music lovers alike. it pains me to think that he's still relatively unknown by so many music lovers!!! from 7:07 ....they're all just right in the pocket. it's like their minds went into standby, and their heart and soul just took them over... it gives you chills.

[@Sharkcomet]

Yeah Ariana Grande might make some very "simple" pop music but on a technical level she's really top notch! I'm pretty sure harmonizing was pretty easy task for her

[@colton1028]

David, you’re an awesome reactor! I appreciate how much depth you go into with the arrangements you review. You should definitely check out Nothing But Thieves - Impossible (Orchestral version) and definitely review more Dirty Loops!

[@mrcooper7027]

I liked your reaction to the Larnell Lewis video, he plays in a band called Snarky Puppy and he played on an album called We Like it Here, maybe you could do a reaction to a track. I would highly recommend the songs What about me and Lingus.

[@beave265]

For me, he is the most unique musician in this era

[@TyroneCLove]

"there's animation in the background and it's funky and cool", dayum, glad you're here mate.

[@benburrell2725]

"One Day the Only Butterflies Left Will Be in Your Chest" I'm waiting. You will love it. This is a great song too. So killer!! The vibe is fantastic.

[@MusicShed]

Filmed!

[@joeyclemenza7339]

I believe thundercat has also worked with Jon Batiste and Childish Gambino..... I could be wrong though.

[@Presseff]

So i came across this channel, and im blown away almost, Youve done a few bmth vids and im super involved with it, but theres a band called Thornhill and their album "The Dark Pool" even if you dont do a vid on it, listen to it, its so deep and musically brilliant id reccomend "Nurture" but theres a great piano fill on "Nether place" but its a double barrelled song with the album finale.. anyway i only ask that you listen bcs i was truly taken a back best part, check out how old those guys are, making music that good at that age is truly something admirable in its own right

[@maetjemae2005]

Long live music !!

[@leonidas4237]

Do Something by Lorna shore next. Most people think it’s just Noice, but I know u will appreciate them as musicians as much as I do. Would recommend: immortal, king ov deception, death portrait

[@Diggy22]

6:35 Man, that hits differently 😎

[@grentis09]

David! New fan here, got a couple requests for you. Blackbird - Alter Bridge Dust - Tremonti Coincidentally, same guitarist in each song. Both songs full of a ton of passion and emotion, I think you’ll enjoy reacting to them. Hope you see this!

[@michaelmunday6808]

Man this shit is so funky

[@MusicShed]

Funk-A!

[@lordfizzz]

Ariana goated. showing up to the sesh with the internal instrument

[@briannakelly5816]

You should do a reaction to Jason's song by Ariana grande! She made the song with Jason Robert Brown and it is soooo good!

[@ronbutler8325]

The Song is called,Too high by Stevie Wonder.

[@CheetahSnowLeopard]

Go to Berklee, practice chops and study theory 18 hrs a day, do a bunch of weird stuff, wear goofy hats, dance around with cartoons, play stream of conscious, act hip, and you’ll be a legend in no time.

[@aprildixon1850]

I love these! Also, what happened to the neighbourhood reaction?

[@darthtravi3643]

I've been saying it over n over Dayseeker Sleeptalk album

I really love your reaction videos and this would be freaking awesome if you could do one for the song Aviations - Outliers.. I'm telling you, this is probably the most beautiful thing you'll heard this year.. and years to come. Get ready for a special journey. PS: The piano.. wow.

One of the greatest openings to one of the most meaningful albums to me.

the original is better though

[@emmanashdavis1326]

Too high Stevie Wonder

[@NickGibbsmusic]

Sorry mate, but those drums DO sound like that live 😉

[@MusicShed]

Yes, but not when they’re not mic-ed up and processed. I’m talking live, acoustic drums. They don’t sound like that. Promise.

[@NickGibbsmusic]

I saw him pretty damn close at NAMM and it’s just the way he’s tuned them and also the dynamics and control of his playing.

[@righteous247]

"a lot of creative shit" is a fair assessment.

[@alongthearc4486]

yo these four should probably start a band, they're pretty good.

[@adipsia6154]

He gives that opening the highest praise possible from one musician to another; the stank face 🤣

[@Bigandrewm]

Yeah, this is great jazz. Among modern jazz fusion ensembles, I also enjoy the Donny McCaslin quartet. Yes, the same that David Bowie collaborated with on Blackstar. It's Donny McCaslin on tenor sax, Jason Lindner on keys (piano/synths), Tim Lefebvre on electric bass, and Mark Guiliana on drumset.

[@TheSH1N1GAM1]

I am very upset Adult Swim took down the original video. Thanks so much for your analysis, your video was great, super well produced and informative. Meatwad dancing in the back definitely pulls everything together!

[@geisenm]

There are so many things to love about this performance, but Thundercat nailing those high harmonies for Ariana is just…what can that man not do?

[@ggnegrao]

Perfect choice for the song in question, definitely inspired these four artists

[@nirooo7426]

Jd and domi keys are a prodigy

[@amadeobrenninkmeijer8772]

I think his drums sounds like that - he muffles them with tape, and symbols etc, even boxes with phones.. and the "base synth" you alluded to was domi's left hand accompanying base with her base keys on top.. :) I think - I'm no expert.. :)

[@stillmanparker9049]

I’d like to make a request for a reaction haha. Mistakes Like Fractures by Knocked Loose!

[@Lexondapen]

Awesome vid! Mr. Wonder is always a treat. Thundercat is NUTZ! Love it!

[@jdonegan92]

Whenever I feel burnt out and feel the need to take a break from playing, I'll hear this track...and this live performance to be specific and it gives me that energy. This whole performance, the vibe, the musical conversation between everyone on the stage is what music is all about.

[@MeanMaoriMean555]

Absolutely 🎉

[@adipsia6154]

I wonder if you'd be interested in reviewing Monobody's "Curry Courier Career?" Its a fantastic instrumental track, though it is on the longer side.
