Tigran Hamasyan - Drip (Berklee Middle Eastern Fusion Ensemble Studio Recording)

[@QianDrums]

Still watching it in 2024. 😍

[@MM-vs2et]

When you can get the metalheads to headbang in your jazz fusion composition, you know you've made it.

[@pedrofrazao2096]

i'm so happy just cause this exists and i'm alive to hear it

[@lucasurbina1273]

6:28 when we said "takatetitdektiatato" i really felt that...

[@josephperkins-z7n]

I am sad my taste in music has only of recent grown to find and enjoy this. Thanks Tigran and all the people in this group, this song will always hold a special place in my heart.

[@nickoga2112]

So. Fucking. Metal. Jazzy. Prog. Armenian?. Indian? Loved the mashup of styles. This song is so rich in musical styles and timings.

[@danielallocca7770]

That little stick trick at 6:36 is everything. Reminds me of drum corps

[@Syncopiia]

That part at around 6:35 where he drums on the other guy's drumstick broke my brain.

[@arrrgr]

I let my newborn baby boy listen to this, he instantly turned 22, learned to play the bass, built a Time Machine, went back in time and replaced the bassist with himself.

[@DaarkMana]

Charles Cornell introduced me to Tigran Hamasyan. I’m so grateful!

[@disgustangy4901]

I knew about before the Charles Cornell video, but same.

[@HandMadeHippo]

If this was on Spotify it would be my number 1 every year

[@crunchyonion]

2:25 me, approving of literally everything Tigran does

[@hilalpilavci3992]

Fun fact: He has mentioned in an interview that his favourite band is Meshuggah, a swedish progressive metal band! This man is a genius. I have never felt an artist music so deeply in my emotions as his!

[@YinOfYangEnlighten]

The incredible sense of groove and rhythm you need to keep a piece like this both measured and balanced is something else. Amazing.

[@whitesorcerer777]

tigran as leaders!

[@999Mher]

Who wants some TRADITIONAL ARMENIAN DJENT?!!!

[@LlamaMommaDrama]

You rarely see guys enjoying what they're playing than those drummers. Holy, they look like they're having a freakin blast.

[@toprak3479]

"Tim, how many times do I need to repeat this? Classical guitar isn't a percussion instrument." "SHUT UP MOM"

[@mikeemorales04]

0:51 little section is so nasssttty with that bassline.

[@TheVGDrumCovers]

As someone who grew up listening to System of a Down but now almost exclusively listens to prog and math rock, I think I've found something very special here.

[@koooole]

A monastery is in white flames Rocks are melting Birds are chirping A kid is playing on gran-pa's anvil Fumes are rising Metals are dripping The Alchemist is mixing the crucible

[@beckycartel]

The squirrel that lives in my backyard is named Tyrone. He comes in my garage sometimes. I'm feeding him peanuts right now. He likes this song.

[@Goldenleka]

damn son! Such a 10 out of 10 arrangement. So pleasing for my adhd mind - growing up listening to Meshuggah, Pantera, Miles Davis, D`Angelo, Badu, albanian folk music, Primus, Gong and what have you. Why keep it in one genre. Just arrange music that is fun to play - and it will be a joy to listen to. Thank you for making something I can go back to.

[@drewsleyy3836]

THIS NEEDS MORE VIEWS!!! Tigran cannot possibly be a real person, good lord

[@djoc417]

needs more views? it just got uploaded lol

[@KaiOwensDrums]

This is genuinely one of the most incredible musical arrangements and performances I have ever witnessed. this right here is why I want to pursue music. Nothing else makes me feel like this

[@yeahuri4724]

It's been a long time since someone actually make prog sounds original.This is so much better than shredding over the top, and not to say much much creative, more musical to be exact.10/10 prog over here guys.

Agreed - the only part that sounded out of place was the Indian chanting by Jayaraman. India is not really a part of Middle East so it sounds as foreign as a classical piece would, compared to the rest of the song..

[@war4peace1979]

Yea I was impressed and in a very good way. I don't even remember when was the last time I was impressed that much, probably Dent's Verstarker was the last album I liked that much.

[@celestialmonkey]

There's plenty of great prog coming out still. You just need to know where to look.

[@Snowbound2643]

its called fusion for a reason

[@shikhar4850]

[@MsDavo123]

omg Djent mixed with ethic jazz, and indian bro absolutely killed it with his insane vocal odd time signature

[@Lucius338]

Such a jam. This song never tires. This and several other works by Tigran have been on my daughter's playlist since she was born. Now that she's a bit older, whenever we let her pick on youtube, she brings us to either Tigran Hamasyan, Jacob Collier, or Snarky Puppy.

[@abhimanyukhadwal]

Respect from India. This has been nothing but extraordinary

[@GIJoe23]

The bassist is working so hard it's amazing....

[@PAINRULEZ]

This is by far the best version of this song.

[@kombokenji]

That whole section between 3:29-4:22 was absolutely amazing. I love that little almost a minute of calm like jazz, idk how to describe it

[@danielrc14]

6:14 top 10 rappers eminem was too afraid to diss

[@itscalledsonder3785]

I've watched this for what seems like a million times, and I still can't get over how much fun everyone is having. Love this so much!

[@michaelkilgore]

This is one of the most moving live recordings I have witnessed.

[@adeleisnofail]

I've listened to this so many times and only just realized that he is whispering/scatting during his piano solo at 3:29 which gives me some more insight into the brilliance of his musical mind. Amazing!

[@CalHarding01]

Armenians As Leaders

[@robchitsonzojr.9056]

That Konnakol part 🔥💃 !!! Everything about this is absolutely amazing... Meshuggah vibes😎

[@AkleaNeon]

I saw the piano and thought - ahhh some jazz again, and then THIS MAGIC EXPLOSION OF SOUNDS AND BLENDS happened. umami for the ears all the way. wooow. WOW.

[@ariadnabernardeau3727]

Amo con todo mi corazón esta pieza, no puedo expresar con palabras lo que me produce, solo decirle felicitaciones por traer algo tan divino a esta tierra.

[@MrTherooster97]

6:06 -6:48 Mans spittin’ BARS 🔥

[@danielapazos8891]

omfg i almost died because of the epicness of this

[@5hyguy42]

So exited for his next album Tigran is my favourite musician hands down

[@xenophagia]

Good god. The entire band is just incredible. And the way the two drummers work together is awesome! Tigran Djents hard as hell!

[@uti58]

Pardon my language but, MOTHER FUCKER... This just automatically played on my on one of the KZbin Playlist. First it grabbed my attention and then it kept me in awe, through and through. The composition, the arrangement, the instrumentalists and damn that metal section. I am not sure how many times will I listen to it on repeat...!!!

[@skoto8219]

2:03 i just noticed he's playing the choir part with his right hand and the crazy bass polyrhythm with his left. before i assumed he was just doubling the bass there. insane.

[@darryllouis245]

That metal feel though.... Just awesome.

[@edonave]

This is the best thing happened in YEARS. I'm truly moved.

[@Roryagreen]

This is without a doubt one of the most creative pieces of music I’ve ever heard, I’m LIVING for this drum set up!

[@juan.espinosa]

This is what creative people do when they set norms aside. Several timing nightmares that are simply mesmerizing surrounded by beautiful singing, wonderful!

[@menouaaa]

This is a combination of many amazing Armenian traditional songs, it's cool how he's composed it

[@BANGKOKJUNGLE]

The evolution of music takes another giant step forward. Genius.

[@gruwer92]

Omg. What an amazing performance. So many cultures gathered in one place.

[@arishok77]

Wonderful to hear Berklee chorus sing Armenian! This was amazing!

[@vroomoon]

I love that MARO is just casually one of the backup singers.

[@baguettedeatun]

Its so amazing that every musician seems to be enjoying the hell out of themselves

[@musicfan8867]

Didn't know I would be able to hold my breath for 8 minutes... absurd in the best possible way, what some people are able to accomplish.

[@charleskiesling9774]

This piece of music feels like it is truly the product of all the music that came before it, like all the history of music led to this. Stunning, and I can't wait to hear more things like this

[@whackamole]

Hooray for Tigran and all that sail with him.

[@tigranmarutyan]

It’s like heaven for every musician here, they enjoy every millisecond , me too Thank you Tigran and everyone who made this fantastic music . you are the best

[@aminefellag5235]

Keep watching sins 3 months .. high level of music .. thanks for that .. from Algeria 🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿

[@samuelmarconett1979]

"Djent song I wrote" -Tigran Hamasyan

[@SonicVisualGR]

This is by far one of the best compositions I've heard for the last 20 years, Thank you great Tigran, all the great musicians, and all the cast for creating this masterpiece!

[@mmmbetter55]

I didn't know music could get this good. I've just discovered Tigran, whoa. WHOA!

[@attuneu]

this is best music I've ever heard, not to say all other music is lesser, it is not, yet the absolute command, mastery,dynamics,sheer musicality, the interplay, the visual feast, the glory thank you

[@nicholasbenish618]

best part is the cut at 2:14 from the very serious focused faces of the amazaing chorus in this recording to the guitarist absolutely losing it

[@DavidIzkierdoArispon]

No he visto pianista contemporáneo con tantas influencias musicales y virtuosismo como este tío! Bravo !

[@designnimbus]

An incredible musician, an amazing jazz song. I hope Mr. Hamasyan comes to Turkey for a concert once again. Sending warm greetings and a message of peace from Turkey ❤

[@amymalina5073]

Talk about hearing music that feels completely new and different! I am so impressed with the vitality, variety and interest of this music. This area of the world produces some incredible music. A big shout out to Berklee too for their open mind to all kinds of music and their openness in general in educating people to be musicians in the deepest, most meaningful ways. The school is growing and changing and the students along with it. Forget the arrogance of some of these rigid music conservatories. Berklee is leading the way to something really special and new

[@uchooo6303]

Its a mix of what I enjoy the most in music. Just the best song ever, I dont even have the words to describe it.

[@RandomGuitarist7]

Found myself coming back to this every time. Amazing.

[@heladoscuro5074]

God... This is the pure definition of talent

[@Natalie-nh8vj]

OMG this is the most amazing song i`ve ever listened to. like 100 out of 10! it repeats over and over and over on my playlist

[@frombeyond5]

I love to hear Tigran's mumbling each time he is concentrated on the piano

[@TerencePetersen0]

I've watched this video a countless number of times over the years, and it's just as good every time. Incredible range of musical expression in this eight minutes, and it blossoms out beautifully from the seed of the Allegrezza Energico by Komitas that it is based on

[@narekkhalafyan643]

Tigran is a remarkable musician and composer. I am happy to be his contemporary and compatriot.

[@CharlesHx]

I am speechless. Watched it five times in a row - and counting. Thank you.

[@Kharadrak]

One more reason to enjoy life, thank you from my hapiness.

[@WiperElite]

100% a masterpiece. i love this song with my soul

[@RiKoOIBG98]

Beautiful! What a brave bunch of cats, coming up with the extraordinary arrangement.. Tigran is the man

[@liana-gao]

Listening to this piece is simply not enough. I need it under my skin and in my bones.

[@daveh3766]

Almost didn't watch, but so glad I did. Awesome! Mirror drummers a 6:40 sharing stick for roll is just sick!

[@Aletchko]

This is the best composition I've heard since discovering Stravinsky!

[@possibl_nb]

i need this on spotify

[@fabianmarin8514]

I like how at times Mr. Hamasyan seems like he's possessed while playing the piano. My favorite pianist without a doubt.

[@bradgrossman3704]

Tosin Abasi of Animals as Leaders (amazing metal instrumental band) took over SiriusXM's Liquid Metal for a half hour, playing some of his faves. This was one of them. My reaction "What the hell was that?". In the best possible way, had the same reaction when hearing Animals as Leaders the first time on that channel. Quite amazing!

[@308atalay]

Do you realize how much people always enjoy playing with him?

[@thezebiano]

Holy shit...? What did I just hear? What. I'm still speechless.

[@ayhamarand5794]

its a 2021 and still my favorite .. when u make a metalhead banging his head on this legendary music you have to know you nailed it guys

[@vicentealvarado5608]

Is that MARO singing? The link we needed between Jacob and tigran

[@Aaronitouse]

I wish I could like this 1000 times, brings a smile to my face every time I watch it

[@mertplaysguitar]

The beauty of this composition brought tears to my eyes. Wonderful 🙏🏻👌🏻

[@stephenweston6514]

It's so cool seeing the rhythm section grimace just trying to count the tuplets and the sense of achievement when they nail it

[@ReaganLopez]

this is sooo exciting.. surprises at every corner.. and everybody is so much in sync.. super tight.. 😍😍😍

[@danilomcn1]

Incrível, belíssimo. Suave, pesado, poético e agressivo. Tigran é um gênio a nível de Beethoven, Debussy, Mozart e Bach. Ainda consegue ser melhor, pois mistura vários ritmos, tendências e estilos no jazz, como o heavy metal.

[@asmodeo111]

Tigran its a real genius of this modern era !!! maybe is "The" genius, and it's only 30 yo .

[@raynavitorino2937]

it has been some years that this continues to be the best music experience i had in my life. every time i watch this video is so wonderful and cathartic.

[@henning-bass7648]

This is so amazingly good...I'm completely overwhelmed by the musicianship and skill!

[@malydok]

For any of you metalheads out there, the guitarist, bassist and drummer (right hand side) are from the isreali band Distorted Harmony, highly recommended. The drummer, Yogev, also has a YT channel breaking down drumming - he's a cool guy. Then there's also MARO singing, who I thought was an established artist by then and has pieces with Jacob Collier among others. And then I probably only haven't stumbled upon the other musicians but the amount of talent in this single arrangement is quite something. Berklee really is the top music school I guess.
