👴 Old Composer Reactions 🤘

[@rpgeebzmusicarcade]

👴Yea, I loaded this about 20 mins ago and had to pull it becuase I forgot to show the performance video, so here you go :)

[@beepboop204]

[@commycasty]

You should react to the Bruce falconer DBZ soundtrackskzbin.info/www/bejne/fZ-2dJqDib12b9U kzbin.info/www/bejne/jafQY419fM6sp5I , or Death Note! kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3ypZZt6aMiji8U

[@carterknudsen525]

Such a killer groove. I'm hearing it as two bars of 7/8 followed by a bar of 9/8. And the beauty of it is that it's not halting, but rather has such a great natural flow.

[@Turigamot]

Nyckelharpa! The first time I ever heard that instrument I fell in love. It's one of my favorites, and I wish it were incorporated more often into composers' repertoire.

[@FAMUCHOLLY]

Hey, Vasen is the name of the group performing WITH the Puppies on this song. They are from Sweden and specialize in folk music. Fun fact; the percussionist with the tattoos, Andre Ferrari, now plays in one of Michael Leagues side project bands, Bokante. Check them out too. P.S: you had an uncle in Caldera?!?! Wow! I remember jamming Sky Islands in the dorm when my roommate bought it after it was first released. He was from South Fla and introduced me to all kinds of GREAT Latin music and artists! Snarky Puppy is on a whole different level. They do it all and do it exceptionally well. Thanks for the video and your analysis.

[@yubogolfer4040]

This is art at it's finest. The first instrument is probably a Nyckelharpa, if I'm not mistaken.

[@vanilla_milkshake]

Wow! did not expect to see a Nyckelharpa player in a Snarky Puppy song. Thanks for covering this song!

[@liquidicev]

Great video! Thank you for introducing me to this group. I caught one of your ost tracks in my feed once and now I'm going through your metal channel too. The Porcupine slow burn was amazing. Cheers

[@rpgeebzmusicarcade]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@Robert_Herring]

Snarky is such a wonderful ensemble. Michael's greatest strength is getting phenomenal musicians together and make magic. The Family Dinner albums are wonderful, this one was recorded in New Orleans, and featured people as diverse as Väsen, David Crosby, Becca Stevens, Jacob Collier, and more. I wish they would do a Volume 3.

[@cloudbloom]

I'm digging into more of their stuff and holy SHIT I want to see you react to their song with Jacob Collier called Don't You Know, absolutely killer with crazy vocal harmonies and bends with such a groovin percussion. Right up your alley😎🤙

[@jamesc5801]

second this! Jacob is also a good fit for this channel btw. I'm sure he's on your list somewhere ;)

[@secrettravelclub5486]

This is such an awesome groove, and from a group that I might've never heard of, so thanks for this video! While we're going back to world music, another artist to check out could be Masayoshi Takanaka. "Oh! Tengo Suerte" is a fun track. He's a Japanese guitarist/composer/producer who fell in love with Brazilian music, which he puts his own spin on.

[@mortmortmort8908]

You gotta check out Shaun Martin's solo stuff. Madiba, Yellow Jacket, Lotus.

[@sandenson]

Definitely!

[@chrisc.73]

Wow! I can't believe this has gone under my radar for so long.. that's definitely going in my playlist

[@ablueduckyy]

Snarky Puppy is incredible! I just listened to some stuff from Caldera, and I feel bad for not knowing of them sooner (thanks for the recommendation!). It would be really cool to see you react to some jazz (fusion) from Japan. Also looking forward to the twitch stream, hopefully I'll be able to make it :)

[@the_seamoose]

Snarky Puppy is great! I love their song "What About Me?" from their album "We Like It Here."

[@mikaelolsson5333]

So, Väsen is a Swedish band. Väsen translates into Essence. The band, the acoustic guitar, the percussionist and the "Nyckelharpa" (Key harp, played with a bow but with keys and burdun strings, almost like a hurdy gurdy) plays their own compositions in a Swedish folk music tradition, but with this world music touch to it. There's another piece from the same recording session, with a female singer. It is even better, to my mind. Party 'cause you get to hear the percussionist more. Keep up your reactions - simply love them!

[@jameswarner5809]

Trust Snarky Puppy to play in 13 time and think... nah, that's not complicated enough, let's mess with the syncopation.

[@VoxTone2009]

Väsen is a folk music group, but more internationalized than tradition Swedish folk music. In their genre they are absolutely fantastic musicians. I like a very wide variety of music and they are one of my favorites in this genre. There is a Tiny desk concert with them that shows their talents.

[@lucaslasvegas5170]

New subscriber here :-) Thank you for these videos! There's lots of songs from the The Legend Of Zelda series you might enjoy: Skyward Sword - Romance in the air (your basic classical OST, could be Lord of the Rings) Breath of the wild - Kass' song (kind of a classic Waltz) Ocarina of time - Gerudo valley (Spanish guitar -ish) Wind Waker - Ocean Theme (heroic reeds and horns classic OST/BGM) or simply the main Zelda Theme.

[@JohnSmith-fl4bj]

Going to see these guys in June - can't freaking wait!!

[@ToastedWaffles_]

Never knew of this band gunna have to look into it more. This sounds like something my uncle and i would have a great time having a few drinks and do a deep dive into.

[@Stephen-Fox]

Absolutely gorgeous piece. Very fun. Suddenly I'm very interested to see what you'd make of Wintergatan's Marble Machine, although it has almost zero similarity to this piece. (I came to the channel for the video game OST reactions and I don't think us having a 'wide listening soundscape' as you so graciously put it is a strength of ours, but a strength of OSTs - Any style of music can wind up in them, as the composer feels appropriate, which kind of makes our musical horizons broad by default. Not only in terms of genres but in terms of what the music is attempting to do. Not much music outside of OSTs are ever going to try and capture the feeling of drowning, but in OSTs? Well, what else is the drowning countdown music in Sonic doing but capturing that feeling? Especially the half second rest at the end before death.)

[@bangboom123]

Terrific piece!

[@OTProd]

2+ years my friend, and I am yet again BEGGING you to check out the band The Dear Hunter. It somehow fits in both with Snarky Puppy and BTBAM, and many of their songs would probably play well on the world music channel as well!

[@TLBJohnnyAlpha]

Absolutely love your vids and insight Geebz! I would be fascinated to hear your thoughts on Snarky's track "Trinity". I'm sure its been suggested before but just thought I'd throw my hat in the ring too! Its a beautiful track and I'm sure you'd enjoy it. All the best from London, England

[@gwamhurt]

Shame this stuff gets so many fewer views. I appreciate gamers bringer their experiences of music and making sure the people making OST's get their due respect in the traditional music scene, but I hope you can bring some of this fantastic stuff to their attention as well.

[@myrb2622]

This is a really awesome song. I'll definitely need to check out more from them. Around 9:20 to 10:20 really reminded me of the Hades OST by Darren Korb.

[@ToastedWaffles_]

Yeah this song gave me massive Darren Korb vibes. I'd love for Geebz to check out Transistor's and Hades's OST.

[@soocool78]

for reference: Snarky Puppy is a collection of 10+ musicians led by Bassist Michael League. This album is called "Family Dinner Vol 2". Which is a non-profit charity album to promote musical youth. They partner with various musical groups across the world and do a "Cover" of one of their songs. Their album "We Like it Here" is generally considered Snarky's best album.

[@neonhavok]

while im listening to this song it makes me feel like im looking at a Prince of Persia Menu Screen or opening cutscene roaming through the desert I think it would be fitting

[@michaelboen1979]

This song is from Vasen on their album "Whirled". It and "Gront" are more world music, while they tend more to traditional swedish folk music on their iyher albums.

[@danielj6897]

Love Snarky Puppy

[@dodgrblu]

That beginning immediately made me think of Tool haha

[@cloudbloom]

These guys are insanely good

[@LibertyP_]

Id love to see you react to some of Kelly Bailey's music for the game half life 2. "CP Violation" and "sector sweep" are personal favorites!

[@Kirdian77]

I hope you will react to "The City Must Survive" from Frostpunk or "On the Champs-Désolés" from Witcher 3 Blood and Wine

[@beavisjohns333]

Thankyou

[@kylecushing8920]

Speaking of how broad Video game OST are, the first third of the song had me thinking they were taking inspiration from the Tristram Village Theme composed by Matt Uelmen from the Diablo 1 video game, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diablo_(video_game). kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5-wg2mJhKeUb80

[@TaliesinMyrddin]

I wonder if Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Moebius Battle will ever get covered

[@PaulPlaysMinecraft]

Just found your channel love the content, wanted to ask since reacting to other music have you found a new band you now love from doing these videos?

[@jax1670]

Another Videogame track you could check out is Astalgia of Phantasm from Lost Ark. Make sure you strap your hat down because it will be blown off

[@sebi9190]

For your next video game ost reaction I think you should react to "Specialist" from Persona 4! I think you'd really like it!

[@DeagleLas]

You have to check a Sanrky Puppy feat Knower (Genevieve & Louis Cole). Brutal!

[@beepboop204]

🙂🙂

[@Uroste]

Could you hear the track "Dracula-The Beginning" from 1992 movie Bram Stoker's Dracula?

[@e.g1369]

Oh if you love Funk you should really Check out „i belive“ from Persona 5 Royal its sich a nice Soundtrack, and really gives you That Vibe!

[@thw_paragon6793]

I would really love it if you would react to I could almost feel you by Owsey. It's my favorite piece of music ever and truly is an experience to listen to. cheers!

[@Jesus_Christ_For_Real]

I'm sure you're struggling for soundtracks to react to, but can you do the soundtrack for team fortress 2? Its entirely performed in-orchestra and is a very 60s style soundtrack. Alternatively I recommend the soundtrack from star wars jedi: fallen order. Stephen Barton and gordy haab do a masterful job of emulating John williams' original score while still making it unique. I recommend "eno cordova's theme" and "taron malicos" personally. I'd recommend individual tracks from team fortress 2, but they're all so good! If anything, "rise of the living bread" and "SEDUCE ME!" are my favourites

[@majkenvanja]

I love this collaboration but its also nice to hear the original from 1997 when they just are four guys playing it ( Väsen) kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5nMppSAjbJqnbM

[@soloshoesyus4534]

Ride for the world's ending lord of the rings soundtrack would be a great reaction not to mention would bring alot of fans from the lord of the rings series

[@frozi1541]

You gotta listen to Risk of Rain Coalesence and ...Con Lentitude Poderosa

[@adamhenton6221]

Sup Geebz🤙

[@rpgeebzmusicarcade]

Howzit Adam!

[@NinjaFighter2802]

Could you possibly do a reaction to MOBILE ARMOR by Hiroyuki Sawano from the Gundam Unicorn ost?

[@JZStudiosonline]

If I could throw my hat into the ring for suggestions, there's an anime called Aku no Hana (Flowers of Evil) that uses a remix of Asa-Chang and Junray's song Hana called A Last Flower. Both songs are incredibly complex (to me) and give very different vibes, especially texturally with A Last Flower starting with the sounds of something like grinding egg shells. Haven't seen anyone talk about it and their work is very... interesting.

[@umerhamza875]

You should react to dragon age origins main theme.

[@DroppedYourSoul]

Now do Skinny Puppy.

[@MrGreendayzed]

Why is this here? You've already did 3 on the main channel. What about people that subbed to you off those videos for more Snarky Puppy. Hmmm.

[@chrisc.73]

I went on a rant on the DK video about a playlist of songs that I highly recommend so I won't do that here again haha. But I will keep bringing up that all the openings and ending from Mushoku Tensei are worth a listen. Since my last comment, I realized that some of my love for the songs comes from the unique way they are integrated into the show, which one, makes me pretty biased and two, also nervous about recommending them again if they don't hold up to the expectations I am setting. I really hope you see this and consider listening to them anyway. It would be interesting to hear an unbiased perspective since you haven't heard them in the show first. :D

[@dodgrblu]

Something that well fits your "World Music" theme, I urge you to do an incredible vocalist from South Korea named So Hyang, and her song Arirang Alone, particularly this live performance, search "So Hyang - Arirang Alone [Immortal Songs 2 #1]", it currently has 14m views. She is truly phenomenal, and the song itself is a traditional song that's been modernized with added orchestral elements and is fantastic.

[@countquackula8539]

Can you do Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross.

[@redstaticofficial0320]

Can you react to Deltarune chapter 2 OST BIG SHOT.

[@juliandavila24]

Can you react to the anime song Re:zero Requiem of silence plssssss

[@MrHotdogz1234]

first!
