[@tschewaptschitschy]

It's funny how I don't really expect a lot from these sessions, but I my mind gets blown everytime. Thanks, KEXP

[@sofiadiazramirez8007]

I have actually loved bands by discovering them on this channel, but hearing them on record isn't the same!!

[@rpansegrau4235]

Expect more!

[@marko1970]

Sergio Alejandro Rios - (gtr, song writing, production with Orgone), aside from his engineering skills, is also an excellent guitarist and song writer, who knows his place in the band, never overplays, and chooses the right sound and feel for almost all of Orgones material.

Thank you Antibalas (Daktaris) for reviving Afrobeat in the US! 20 years later and just listen to what folks are doing!

[@marko1970]

Nord really works with this sort of music, lovely sounds, and they really all work great together, excellent bad, am totally impressed. Beautiful Trumpet solo about 22:00 minutes in, the pattern in-between the gtr and keys is classic, awesome !!!

[@benjammin9276]

[@Adiaf8oros]

The guitar is a standard Hamer double cutaway in Mustard Diarrhea, if anyone is interested.

[@benbloom4955]

Its a 93 Hamer Special

[@Adiaf8oros]

I was more interested in the ugly colour, but thanks!

[@bmx3347]

You don't see a lot of Hamers...

[@finarollerz]

Used to have a sunburst, shouldn’t have sold it.

[@donfisher8336]

Did not see this coming...Wow. Awesome! Thank you KEXP and thank you Polyrhythmics. Shopping for an album or two right now...and a few people are going to have an unexpected CD treat under the Christmas tree this year and they're going to love you guys too. Just...just great! :)

[@user-sv6rb5bo6n]

Grand!

[@galufeta]

Does anyone else notice the similarity between the Magus Theme from Chrono Trigger with the beginning of Fairweather Fiends (second song)?

[@djmariovvelasco1182]

my favorite video game of all time, and its to similar to be a coincidence

[@sakules]

the guitarist is so damn groovy

[@ProdSanti]

He’s the best guitar teacher in the west, dangerous man

[@neuztec]

Full "Peformance" a term for sweet sweet funk.

[@Nonoboss88]

[@robbygaume600]

The whole band's phenomenal, but the guy playing keys tops. His B3 is hair raising on Chingador.

Jesus Christ! As disgustingly delicious as it gets... BRAVO!!!!!

[@JDD2ND]

Yeals!

[@lamathunderbolt]

Just the right amount of cowbell

[@patrickbourke2385]

If Lettuce and Snarky Puppy had a baby, it would sound something like this

[@danebono7667]

+Patrick Bourke Throw some Fela Kuti afrobeat in there. Spot on. Love these guys.

[@Eduardocabezasm]

la mea vola

[@BeeskieMICA]

Man, really reminds me of HiM. Groovey

[@VoxJ]

[@Nshan94]

Trombone solo is where its at 29:00

[@gazizzerbumph]

Tasty.

[@warrenmark5879]

This is so Earth, Wind and Fire-y...

[@lawrenceobrien8290]

First song sounds like a 70's FIlm Getaway...

[@HexaneLake]

Snarky Puppy + weed.

[@AnnaLuna]

Ah, Lord of the Fries.

[@szakalsrakal6029]

Channeling their inner Herbie Hancock

[@teaunasanders166]

+Jimmy Boxman I was thinking that exact thing!

[@TLdilly]

And a bit of 'Menehan Street Band' too :)

[@kevcor13]

I get a bit of Santana here , either way this is quality 👍

[@omarheavy2009]

12 dislikes?? no doubt deaf people!!

[@7489k]

Too bad they didn't go for Polyrhythmix* to really emphasize the mash up of influence on their sound. I'll forgive them though, they're pretty damn good

[@cd-jq9wd]

P sure stu watched this

[@samuelmaia4613]

afro beat

[@user-ud1us4yu9l]

who made one dislike? Kanye West ?

[@tomazturra4134]

Is this like the newfelakuticontemporaneousoulgroove

[@Trickmyster777]

what hat is homeboy wearing?

[@nikfish1]

I didn't know Bert Kreischer played the guitar

[@lucas.1632]

polyrhythmic l'éclair?

[@amnesia622]

Why is the keyboard player always the most hurt member of the band ?

[@rrrfrdd4497]

So paper sales were so bad Dwight decided to become a keyboard player?

[@theOMsound]

Is the rhythm section all the same person? 😂

[@ThePashaSh]

Охуенно!

[@yummyscrumpo9830]

ramsay sent me here

[@VNFDF]

sounds like snarky puppy

[@AquaAnim]

+Vinícius Neves Ferraz More so Herbie Hancock influence.

[@jah9253]

Yeah agree. Throw in a little Herbie Hancock and Weather Report as well.

[@svengustaffson385]

pornsound

[@petemack3076]

WTF? Add for constipation drug dropped like a turd right in the middle of a number. Worst. Ad. Ever.

[@ricardouribeyoutube]

wiggas jaja

[@tolfred]

My god, those americans, how is it possible to talk so much? This guitarist dude is so intense, I wish he would shut up. But their music is great, though!

[@Mast3rBruc31]

+T. Alfred Dahlen probably just nerves. he seems very excited about his music!

[@VoxJ]

+T. Alfred Dahlen Are you a zombie?

[@tolfred]

Robert Johnson III No I'm european. Stupid comment by me, anywy. I must respect that we're all different and that some people like to talk. I regret writing that comment. Sorry

[@VoxJ]

+T. Alfred Dahlen I’m european too… I thought he had a coherent, enthusiastic story. Respect for changing your opinion and writing it down!

[@tolfred]

Thanks man! I was a little bit too crass there. He was definitely enthusiastic about his music, that's great!
