Snarky Puppy - Xavi (Behind The Scenes)

[@SC4RRL3TT]

"So how many percussionists will you need?" Snarky Puppy: *yes*

[@MaTaNhy]

this is without a doubt in my top 5 best snarky puppy songs, its beautiful

[@drewper73]

As a drummer\percussionist, seeing all of the different drums, cymbals, gongs, etc. makes me wish I could spend a week with all of their stuff. I'd be like a kid in a candy store. Few things in this world look as cool as a killer set of drums or a percussionist's setup. The only bad part about it is having to set it up and tear it down.

I'm Moroccan and i recognize rhythms and instrument of my culture, played and transformed by one of my favourite international bands ! Thank you Snarky Puppy 😁 PS: Morrocans are huge fans of Spanish football, and Messi... you've certainly been to Morocco !

Moroccan fan since 2014 THANK YOU so much for all the music you've shared. Wish you could come back for the next tour !!

[@captaindeo]

Behind the scenes for ALL TRACKS please!!!!

[@hamzameriaf574]

To come play during the GNAWA FESTIVAL OF ESSAOUIRA, then to be inspired from our moroccan culture and transform it to such a beautiful piece of art by my favorite band just a year after !!! Big thanks to you !! PS: I'm a drummer and a big fan of Lewis, I hope one day I can be as precise on the drums as you are

[@AndySchroeter]

The first time ever I stumbled on Snarky Puppy was the „sleeper“ KZbin video. There are many outstanding bands and there is Snarky Puppy. Music of such richness, playfulness, surprises, incredible rhythm, presented by musicians that exhibit skill, precision and productivity in an uncanny manner. I am completely and utterly hooked to this marvelous band!

[@lucascoutinhopires3460]

That Barcelona shirt at 1:17 didn't go unnoticed. When's the Iniesta song coming out?

[@martinpaddle]

there are parallels between the music and Barças play... intricate lines, combinations and rythms, with an occasional inspired, improvised solo by Messi

[@gil-evens]

@@martinpaddle I wish I watched football to properly laugh at this comment. +1 anyway

Just beautiful!

One of the most brilliant outro sequences I've ever heard. Spectacular as always Snarky Pupper

[@joshuacollins6057]

Consistently blown away by how beautifully constructed these pieces are. So textured and layered but there is so much space. Just adore it. Thanks again SP. You've dominated my Spotify for the last 4 years. Cannot wait to see you guys in Melbourne next month.

[@sharonaumani8827]

" textured and layered but there is so much space" Ah, yes....That is how it feels. I am loving SP!

[@NoisyLittleCampers]

Looking forward to more. Tnx

[@danusiabeatz]

I also honestly miss the old Snarky Puppy... Miss Ground Up / We Like it Here days. I agree with the other commenter that there are no "strong memorable melodies and powerful choruses that made me fall in love with them" anymore. Its kind of straight through same sounding music. Still all wonderful musicians obviously. But miss the original tunes from years ago.

[@hope2play]

Then enjoy the old stuff. This new recording is amazing! I love to see how this group is changing, growing, challenging themselves and hearing different musical cultural influences. Cannot wait to hear them live in June.

[@edwinedward4543]

Wait why do you miss it? Just listen to those albums more.

[@lucianomanfrinato5481]

Let’s not start this kinda discussion bro, you can either walk alongside the band on their journey as they move on, or else stay in the past 👍🏼

[@danusiabeatz]

@@lucianomanfrinato5481 chill out...I am allowed my opinion like everyone else and I still said positive things. I am allowed an observation and too have an adult dialogue about it haha geez..and Im not bro

Well, really only two channels: left and right. but the number of tracks? probably a lot.

[@rodrigozimmerr]

Incrível.....

[@SeanFenlon]

I learned first-hand that it's pronounced: "Cha Vee" ... "Cha Vee" equals "Gram Me" i.e. #Xavi = #Grammy :-) The pre-released audio alone is SOOO SOOOOO GOOOOD -- SOOOOO Satisfying … Moroccan Waltz Grooves with obfuscated downbeats and RICH harmonies and polyrhythms/superimpositions galore. I was able to see the first-ever live (and super-tight) performance of this at the GroundUP Music Festival 2019. Now this so-called "Behind the Scenes" video (i.e. format = syncing video clips of the recording/rehearsal/production with the final two-track master)… Just WOW . Absolutely amazing. Bravo in advance Michael League :-)

[@LisztyLiszt]

Hoped it would say Xavi on the jersey. Well, what would a track called Messi even sound like....?

[@ddundeez]

This is insane!!! F - genius
