Knowing that the music industry is a lot better when it comes to things like this when it comes to 2D artists from what I have seen, because maturity is an expectation, and everyone knows eachother, it can be surprising when you see this kind of thing when you are used to people getting blasted because X and Y or because they made an illustration of a controversial person.

loop tracks are definitely used by artists everywhere nowadays, he isnt wrong about that but for the rest, there are just too many inconsistencies with the videos and the messaging for it to be believable and there's nothing wrong with being a huge artist who writes beautiful and inspiring music & also be supported by a huge team + be under a record label just... don't lie to people. its the worst thing you could ever do for your public image

You know what the real problem is that people don't care and nobody cares that I use loops or pre-recorded tracks since 100% of the artists do it when they appear on TV in videos and in concerts, the problem is that people like this a guy who is a failure and lousy pianist starts throwing shit at someone who never messed with him just for visits, without caring about the work or the problems of jake or his team. And to top it off, it monetizes the videos. I mean, this German is a horrible person

JVKE is still young. I hope that he develops the ambition not only to rely on the technique, but also to learn it "properly". Because when the day comes and there's only an acoustic piano and he wants to sing in a different key, he'd have to say, "Sorry, I can't do that now." No artist wants to experience such moments.

@@SilviF.. - Sadly there's no such thing as an easy or quick route when it comes to music, it's one of the few things that will always require patience and regular practice. One of the biggest mistakes a lot of people do when trying to establish a career as a singer is that they don't ever train their ears. Training the ears is just as important as training the voice; and far too many of them only ever get as far as developing decent relative pitch, but when it comes to true pitch they are completely lost. Totally understand that when we are young we are very eager to push ahead, but really that only has one ending, where you eventually need to go right back to the drawing board to learn it all properly. Whether you're a musician or a singer, the same applies to both fields; it's imperative to establish a solid core understanding of your craft, because every house needs a stable foundation. But, it's his mistake to make, and one I hope he will some day learn from.

As a fellow pianist I would say absolutely it is worth putting the time in to perfect this performance. I was super happy for JVKE when this song went viral, it felt like one of my kin really made it. Now that I see that the performances were dubbed and at best transposed, it kind of ruins things for me and I bet it would for a lot of people. And regarding the viral teacher videos the first one looked like a real piano and the audio from the two videos are identical so his explanation here doesn’t even hold water. Judging by some of his fingering I bet he could learn to play this piece live perfectly in no time. I sure would if this were my song.

speaking from an audio engineer's perspective: that last point that JKVE made was this: - He would use the official song (that's released on platforms) and layer that onto the video, to make it sound better - I don't know any other artists that does this, but a similar situation would be artists lip sync-ing during live performances, with the same aim to make them sound better I think what he's doing w the audio is fine, but the general idea of making it seem like a genuine thing kills it. I'd rather have a raw performance (with a few mistakes), to give a more heartfelt and real performance. That's what makes us human. If we're 100% correct all the time it'll make the performances (& life in general) very boring and monotonous. I love it when musicians make mistakes on stage bc it shows that even though they messed up they still move on, putting that mistake off to the side.

I disagree with you. What does looping or layering have to do with the prerecorded track??? He didn’t loop or layer anything in real time there. He can lie to people who are mostly his fans - people with no or very little music experience. I play several instruments and produce music for years and years and all his excuses are so bad I’m starting to second guess if he ever producer the song. Honestly. He sounds like someone who learned a few key terms and just bounces them around without any logic behind it to layoff the crowd who doesn’t know better. Seriously. Looping doesn’t have anything to with his pre-recorded song he puts over his live performance. Layering as well. He’s talking bull

It’s fine if he’s too lazy to improve his piano playing, but using excuses like “he needs to write songs, so he has no time” is pretty lame.

I have watched all of your videos on JVKE and I agree that all these gimmicks are disappointing. However, I would like to point out some things: 1) AWAL literally means Artists Without A Label. So JVKE is partially correct that he has no label and still has rights to the music and creativity. BUT yes, it’s DEFINITELY NOT only him and his brother. 2) the tiktok videos playing for his teacher and his mother, it has the same audio and jvke doesn’t try to hide that as you can clearly see the same audio source on the bottom of the tiktok video which links to the official audio. Best case scenario, he really played it, but layered the audio of original song with the video along with the original audio of the video. (Yes that’s a feature which exists in both instagram and tiktok and it’s pretty common to do that). Worst case scenario, the teachers are just fake paid actors. 3) The “loops and layers” thing, he was probably addressing the part where you can hear both the melody and chords but you can only hear him playing the chords. I have seen people like charlie puth do the same. The melody loops repeat on the synth(or keyboard) and you just have to play the chords.

We don't know his terms with the label. There's so many different relationships artists have. Sometimes a label means that they are providing the capital (money) to fund the music and often it means they own any music created somehow. However another aspect of a label is the marketing piece which is more useful to independent artists as there's systems in place to get on the radio or perform at certain places. Get's even more complex when looking at differnet markets and countries. I wouldn't be surprised if he owns 100% of his music and isn't being funded, but using the Sony label more as a marketing/pr company which you almost have to do if you are trying to be global.

I think we should remember that JVKE is an artist, there is nothing wrong with using transposing and looping. If he doesn't want to learn the proper technique to play it perfectly and wants to do other things then it's alright. We should not forget that it's not just playing piano what makes him famous. It's the production, planning, self promotion and finding new ways to attract new people to like your stuff and standing out. If the quality of music is just having perfect technique then classical pianists would be still on the charts now which they are not (sadly i love classical piano tho..) Then it's just not an instrumental but lyrics too and if he has more fun creating new ways to express himself than practicing the same stuff over and over again then its understandable that he uses technology which is available for everyone btw to create his art. When he says he doesn't have a label he means AWAL which is a label owned by sony but they still have full control and ownership they just help them with structuring their plans. Music is a business after all and its not just about the technique but also the way of standing out and showing others your work. And we shouldn't forget that we don't know the true persona of him, faking scenarios is one of the most common things on tiktok etc. It's just reality, or do you think that bands like BTS are 100% honest, it's a known fact that you can't just behave 100% authentic as a public face. So don't expect them to be so. How boring do you think would the world be without exaggerated clips and scripted scenes and movies. How many famous artists have sad backstories and try to sell it to you? Artists are not your friends, the music business is for entertainment and not for documentaries. Don't expect them to treat you so. They just want to make it and sell a persona, which is respectable. I'm sick of people hating on artists for being fake or using autotune, loops etc. Like the product/artist but don't expect the fairy tales and entertainment to be realistic and true. You will just waste your time and Energy while those people won't even see your complains probably and will never see who you are because your just one of the many nobodys/listeners/consumers/haters. Stop having such expectations. And it will just turn you into time wasting haters which you can use to work on yourself than trying to bring others down.

I agree that he could've learned the piano part if he wanted to, but for me, there's two points to consider here. One is he's a songwriter first, not a pianist. Considering he preferred to play in only C MAJ and relied on transposing keys, I'm betting he's not an accomplished pianist but can do enough to get by writing songs/producing, which is totally fine. A lot of successful writers/producers don't need to play instruments well (ex. Timbaland), let alone sing at the same time. Second, if you go viral and want to take advantage of it, you gotta act fast as hell. If I wrote a song that blew up this much, I too wouldn't prioritize practicing this piano part if you could get away with it. I'd be focusing on my marketing, booking upcoming performances, and whatever else that all comes with. That's a lot of pressure, and time is more important than focusing on perfection/playing the right key here. I'm sure the thought was that as long as it looks like he's playing it live, most people won't notice. I'm a pianist myself and didn't notice at first cause I was just listening hah. So with the lack of high proficiency in piano paired with the pressure of blowing up, I understand JVKE's choices here. Of course though, it would've been awesome to see him perform the song properly lol.

Then the marketing isnt really completely done by him as i think, for something he has a contract probably with AWAL. And lastly yeah surely there is a lot of musicians especially popular ones that use technology to speed things, that doesnt means the quality is better, neither kinda stupid things that jvke said as when he that his song was impossible to play on piano cause it didnt belonged to the 12 tones, he simply just used slighty out of tune piano and mixing, but that doesnt makes it out of the 12 tones, and neither makes it into a song with a temperament non equal as the one used in most of occident, so pretty stupid claims on his part probably to marketing and surprise people with not much musical training, but to people with some musical training it just hilariously stupid.

Haha Timbaland. Stole Acidjazzed Evening, used it for Nelly Furtado's track Do It and a ringtone that he was selling. Acidjazzed Evening is an Amiga MOD by Tempest (Janne Sunni, Finland), of which a C64 cover by CRG (Glenn Rune Gallefoss, Norway), made its way into HVSC (High Voltage SID Collection). Looks like Timbalnad downloaded HVSC and put it in his SidStation and probably used more of it willy nilly, who knows. When confronted with an accusation, instead of inspecting whether he accidentally committed plagiarism or forgot to clear a sample, ranted incoherently. I don't know if he's a top notch example of creativity, he might just be big muscle and good at stealing or hiring ghostwriters. He got caught this time but how many other times he didn't?

Ever been to a rap show? EDM? Modern pop concern? I mean... pick your poison. Even artists with 100 million net worth are using backing tracks, even full vocals playing in the back. Half the time rappers just let the studio recording play while they go "ay, eh, ah, yo yo yo, ay" with a few parts done live. Hate to say it, but JVKE is correct on that front, and it's just something formal music communities probably won't understand because they aren't in the industry of mass producing a product. Yes, product. That's what music is in that part of the industry.

There is another detail that maybe you've missed and it's that he said that he plays in C major (all white notes), but that's even worst since the first 4 notes that he plays are D-E-G-B, and correct me if I'm wrong but that corresponds to C7 with the 9th included (sorry for my notation, my mother tongue is Spanish), that for the movements he is doing across the song, points not to C major but for G major.

If it takes 100 hours to perfect it, then it takes 100 hours to perfect it. There are no shortcuts.

It's hard to take him seriously with that kind of responses and his posture of "I have no record label therefore don't criticize me".

One of my best mates was on one of these "definitely an Indie and not a major" labels so I'm quite knowledgeable in how these things operate. They have been around for a few years now and they were set up because majors realised people were starting to support indie artists more. So they'd basically make these shell "indie" labels as a front so they could scam artists fans into thinking they weren't on a major. It's basically exactly how it looks. As for what he says about layering in other stems he is right there. I've toured with tons of big bands as a FOH engineer and most of them have a CDJ, Ableton or some other means to bring in stems from the recording. Muse do it, Friendly Fires do it, Pendulum do it, countless artists do, you just rarely notice it. This mostly happens when the writing happens in the studio rather than in the rehearsal space. In a studio writing session you have all kinds of great song writing tools at your finger tips but say you throw some strings in there, are you gonna pay for a string section to tour with you (which is massively expensive) or are you just gonna run the stems to a click. As someone who plays in a band that has 8 members, I can tell you that even as a headliner who gets paid quite well for shows, that money doesn't go far at all once you split it 8 ways then deduct crew, management, agents fee, taxes, bus hire, hotels, food etc.

"loop tracks or layer in the official audio [...] all artists do that" Mhm do they? It is a common performance strategy in pop music in particular to have a dedicated backing track or full playback, or even mime-playing and lipsyncing, but also... depends on the region and setting first and foremost. In Germany it's rarer and a full mime performance wouldn't fly at a festival or concert; UK, US and Korea say it's more common, but also not universally accepted. But also the more indie you lean, the less common it is in either of these countries, there are different subcultures that are more or less accepting of this.

In the clip where we see him loop the chords and play the right hand parts, he does play both parts right (or at least with a transposed piano). Loop preforing is very common especially with beat boxers and totally okay. Had he not been playing the chords correctly to begin with then wed have to assume he was using prelooped chords which takes away from the live performance of even a loop performance. I myself am 100% a digital producer without a classical piano education so I understand the corners Jake is trying to cut even with I presume a piano background. Its very hard for me to record samples that involve keys that use black keys so i transpose to allow me to use as few black keys as possible. However, If Jack does have a piano background he should be comfortable playing in most keys. In my own songs, I started to see how my piano experience gap was showing due to not being able to play in any key that wasn't transposed to c major. Therefore, I have even taken a step back from producing to make up for the lack of a piano background and started learning how to play. Its super challenging especially learning as an adult but I agree with the sentiment that spending time no matter how long to prefect one of you biggest songs is worth it. Esspecially when you are doing live performances and somehow appearing on all these shows and with other artists "without a label". Your video popped up for me and I was so surprised at your findings. While I have been learning piano I wanted to learn Jakes song with the help of synthesea tutorials. After seeing how annoying of a piece this was to play, I just assumed Jake was a genius and wasn't "Cheating". Not to say transposing is cheating but definitely "production magic" if not disclosed. Like a Professional Body Builder lifting hollow weights. Even though we can all see they are jacked and could probably lift what they are faking, it still takes away from the experience at that moment.

Many people uses layers and tracks with the oficial audio nowadays and that’s normal, maybe becoming the standard. I believe there is no wrong here. To put things into perspective, many times the musicians who perform in the recording are not the same in the videos or live performances and it is actually very common too. I do some recordings and there are pieces for one single instrument that become multiple tracks in the recording, but then the audience experience it as a single track, like an amazing performance. Most of the time those type of tracks are playing as a loop.

Some artists do use stems in live performances (example, Coldplay through AHFoD tour using Beyonce's vocal track for Hymn for the weekend). Nothing wrong on that tho! For Indie/small artists who cannot have a whole band in scenario with them, it's more than fair to use pre recorded stuff to complement what's being played live. About the tiktoks and reactions, well, yes. That's just to reach interactions and audience through social media on diffusion. Won't say it is wrong or right even if those are methods i don't like. I think genuineness is very important, more for public figures as artists. Now, for Mr JVKE: More songs is not equal to better songs, my friend. Maybe will be sound rough, but you should spend more time on the piano. Not for a specific performance for a song, but to improve your performance at piano as instrument. Experiencing with wider and more open chords will also open your mind for new songs and new ideas. It will lead you that way still. And consider it as a "Quality over Quantity" (i am not saying you do bad music. i love your work, keep it going that way).

In an interview, he expressed himself that while making songs such us upside down, he created them and then made it look like his mother created the beat.

I'm enjoying a lot all this situation. It's super interesting and is getting better and better. I think this is a consequence of the instant content. The most important thing is the final product and it has to be fast, more than presenting something truly honest and, of course, this is then reflected in the speeches and especially in the justifications that are given in relation to the work and what is created. As for the use of loop tracks and layers I think it is delicate to say that you don't know any artist who does that. It would be necessary to know all the musicians in the world to prove it, so we can't consider that he is bluffing. I've seen a whole concert where the musician was using precisely that system to complement the performance.

got this from the wiki because i couldnt explain it myself. Loops are short sections of tracks (probably between one and four bars in length), which you believe might work being repeated." A loop is not "any sample, but ... specifically a small section of sound that's repeated continuously." Contrast with a one-shot sample.

Thing is, jvke isn't using a loop, or even layering in the audio... he's just straight using the official audio because he apparently can't play and perform the piece well.

JVKE should change his name to FVKE 😂 Now talking seriously, he is the envodiment of what on this days musicians looks like and the way they wrongly think about music (live performance music specially). There are some interesting points to remark: - Honestly his song is not so much difficult to learn and play live, i mean if i have to think in a difficult piece there are plenty more that comes to my mind, specially in the classical music world like Chopin, Rachmaninov and a lot more, i think that statement of him says only how limited skills he have when playing the piano for real. - In the response he did, at the very end he ask for the people if they prefer him to learn his ... own songs ... or if he should spend that time creating new ones, i mean, that's exactly the point that i wanted to talk about, a real musician first of all should not delegate that decision to the people, that's lame, you are the musician, it's your songs, just learn them properly no matter if that take you more or less time, i mean c'mon nobody is rushing you... besides the fact that no serious musician will think in i should do A or B because it will do both, specially between creating new music and learn to play them live properly. - Last but not least, i think this guy see the music like a business kind of deal, just looking at his videos faking playing them live, and making them "easy" to play with transport the notes in a pre recorded audio when the song is actually not difficult to play, live performances are really in danger each day that goes on. Great video by the way, it was about time that somebody have the courage to talk about these. Keep it up! you won a suscriber today!

Hi, Thomas! You are wrong. It will not take JVKE just 4 days to perfect the performance of the "Golden Hour" because he cannot play this song acceptable even in the original key. In this case it would take him (as he had properly estimated, I guess) really a lot of time to reach this level of playing, then a lot of time to sing simultaneously ...and only after these 2 steps it will take him only 4 days to perfect the song in necessary keys. That's why he would rather spend time to make excuses then just sit and put the work into a song. Its like Charlie Puth's vocal - its just not "there" and going "there" would take 5-7 years so excuses like "do you want new songs or do you want me better" is all that these artists have. And its nothing wrong with using tools. Its wrong to make good musicians believe that they can go that far and that fast without tools\labels\help and than frustrate them to death by overwhelmingly winning and crashing them in the competition. Its just not fair to lie to win. Lets keep it fair!

I actually don't think it will take that long, it will take a long time though but not that long. I think as an artist you should at least be able to perform it live properly. Most artist like Charlie puth and other can actually do a live acoustic version of their music. So I actually think he should put in the effort. Music and skill don't come easy, that's why there is few really talented. I also think he should stop lie and do fake tiktoks for views and fame. That's just embarrassing and taking the whole artist role away from him. Jacob collier, there you have someone talented who can perform live.

@@pox-eclipse There are instrumentalists and there are songwriters. JVKE's main instrument is his voice. And his specialty is songwriting. If he doesn't want to practice his piano playing like a concert pianist would, I think that's perfectly reasonable. Not everyone has the same goals as a pianist. It's kind of like asking Bob Dylan why he isn't practicing shred solos.

I think the loop one talks about the live performance what we watched for last in previous video, which was on fan cam. For me, in my experience, a lot of artists plays, and turns the loop on background while performing as a mr. So well, that doesn't make any problems. But, JVKE doesn't have to lie about the label. There is so many certain evidences of that, and it's absolutely not the problem of the world star artist. And for last, practicing a lot of time for perfect performance worth it. As you said to JVKE, I agree with that part. But the thing that doesn't change anyway, is his music is awesome! I really hope that JVKE become much better artist in future, become an artist which can be in the history textbooks lol.
