So… this is our new band…

[@ble82ble]

Congratulations!!!! Hope listening more of your new band and music!!!! ❤

[@blueunicornhere]

6:32 so ... You guys will have me on the show? I do pretty awesome covers... And I'd be lying if I was not inspired by pomplamoose doing "beat it" all those years ago. So yeah, I'm thanking you in advance for when I'm on your show.

[@Supr2baboy]

Pomplamag?

[@bertjones3010]

While I wouldn't be surprised to find out that you have a list a mile long of vocalists you'd like to work with, I just hope I'm not out of line dropping an introduction to the classically trained young Italian vocalist Giulia Falcone, fluent in three languages, with a wide range genres covered. Like Elise Trouw except a fuller voice this is the first song I heard her sing. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKqwnKJ4Z558hLM

[@jcspider7259]

I VERY much appreciate the "white uniform" look as it allows me to focus without distraction on the musicians, the music, the instruments. Very chill. Thank you, Magaziine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@chuckdepew1768]

Pomplamoose is a band and has been a brand since the beginning. It has always been refreshing to see to raise your tent pole to include other artists without losing your own creativity. So now Pomplamoose is a platform!! He suits Pomplamoose!!❤❤

[@WingWong]

I really like the sound. Instruments feel very "retro" with the amazing synth. The dual vocal's breathy voices combined with how well they harmonize... ethereal. Very very cool.💎

[@jcspider7259]

Well, I actually VERY much appreciate the "white uniform" look as it allows me to focus without distraction on the musicians, the music, the instruments. Very chill. Thank you, Magaziine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Daniel.Walker]

As someone that LOVES pomplamoose, LOVES dead wax, loves the idea of scary pockets and LOVES the community of musicians you've been building, and loves your spirit of collaboration? This is great news for me.

[@bruceg]

Love it! There is not a musician on this earth gets "into" playing more than Jack.

IT’S BECAUSE MUSIC IS SO FUN111

[@MasterTicTac1]

I wanna say I for one that I'm glad you're using your platform in a way thats resourcing for you and the artists you work with. Become a record label if you want. More power to ya!

[@cwildeman]

Yeah, I'm down with this.

[@mrwsprss]

Don't ever stop!!! You are changing the world for the better!! Through the love of music and sharing your incredible talents and others you have easily uplifted my soul tenfold. Thank you!

[@GoaConstrictor]

OMG! I literally asked Pomplamoose if they would do a cover of this song for the first dance at my wedding back in June. They were unable to do so but I guess this may have already been in the queue or maybe my email was their muse and spawned this... THANK YOU =) Much love from The Goas!

[@marcelvleeuwen]

Awesome! As a songwriter I really understand that you want to create originals and as a listener I love both your covers and your originals, so this seems like a great solution! Also I love how you guys are continuously aiming to improve the industry!

[@thomasschulz3442]

I LOVE the light visualization of played notes! it feels so good to see an indication of "this is true". Please let the drum "pad" shine too🤩

[@androidgaming5339]

Jack Conte must the bussiest musician I have ever noticed. I mean this guy is in so many songs, so many bands. Does he even sleep? Like does he have any other hobbies? But I get it, I can from his vibe that he loves this, so why not dedicate all life to it. :) Thanks Jack, you inspire me! You too Nataly, you are a really nice singer! Kisses!

[@tehdopefish]

He's also the head of Patreon.

[@larrybaltz4873]

[@paranaqueboy]

I do like it! Thank you folks!

[@nathanbethke9052]

I have been looking for a band that was doing these kinds of songs. Synth is so good and we need more of it.

[@HWTMPH]

This is such a vibe.

[@StefanGineiger]

I'm so glad you keep listening to the future, you keep taking risks, you go through all ups and downs, you work so freakin hard and you have so much fun, you are so much fun over all these years! Nataly and Jack, I'm so grateful you are with us here on planet earth

[@ericgawain1486]

The Pomplamoose FRENCH LANGUAGE albums are still my favorite. This song sounds great, but I personally like a guitar in the band! Strictly my opinion and taste though! Thank you for the excellent music!

[@anthonypetty9288]

Great track, really excited to hear more from Magaziine, and more original music from Pomplamoose. Best wishes from NZ.

[@ArtfullyMusingLaura]

The harmony was amazing.

[@Pomplamoose]

Erin Bentlage did the harmony arrangement. She’s incredible

[@speedspeed121]

That happens with autotune

[@mrclucker1969]

Brilliant - I have followed you for a good number of years now and you never stop being excellent creators and are always looking for ways to get more creativity out there. I must admit to being exited about more new Pomplamoose originals! A big thank you for being so committed and passionate about your art!

[@carterstaley]

Love how you experiment with this channel. Can’t wait for more pomplamoose originals

[@jenserjenson4407]

if 80's style has been a trend for years, why not go all the way and beyond. chapeau!

[@imtheluckiest]

Woooow, getting huge Clean Bandit / Rasmus Faber vibes from this…phenomenal!!

[@patrickdgarez86]

Chill club groove/electronica. Killer track. As much as I appreciate everything your team has done all of these years (been watching since September with the puppet on the kick) this is right up my alley.

[@thev.i.c7844]

when pros do a cover 😍. production on these tracks are beautiful

[@vekdigital]

Had I not watched the outro to the music video, I probably wouldn't have known my thoughts validated about Magaziine. The dreamy vocals and harmonies gave me goosebumps, but overall it did feel like a synthwave version of Scary Pockets. I reference some of the Scary Pockets arrangements with Elise Trouw having a moderately similar vibe. But this is not a condemnation of Magaziine, just an observation of a lifelong musician that sees Pomplamoose, Scary Pockets and Magaziine all existing in a similar yet rarified atmosphere that has a noticeable indie funk component. If Magaziine is looking to set itself apart from the other two, composition and arrangements may need to push farther into the outlandish and experimental. Just a thought. You are all world class musicians and I esteem you highly. I wish I possessed just an ounce of your immense talent and capability. Blessings to all on your new venture.

[@AriaRavenlock]

I'm always down for more synthwave.

[@shanefiddle]

This feels like the descendant of Jack's work in electronic music back in the day. LOVING it very much, it just makes me happy 🙂

[@williamrice3052]

Loved the look of the band, and the music of course

[@SonnyGreenwichJr]

What of the original band, Magazine? From the UK...🔥🧨💪🏽🤠👍🏽🧨🔥

[@davidhills389]

Not to be confused with seminal 1970’s Manchester band, Magazine!

[@stratobungle]

That really did throw me, for a minute or two - as I tried to focus and noticed the second "i"...

[@JanWeigangMusic]

As a music teacher, I would love if all your videos with magazine would visualize the live-playing of the musicians! More of this, please!

[@willwest2773]

Yes - Give Me More --- Cheers

[@magpie.314]

Perfect h&m store music. Or whichever local fast fashion store you patronize

Wow!!! Electro 80’s pop….. what goes around comes around………but Soooooo much smoother 👍🙏

[@dariooben9]

Sounds really good!! Will be waiting for more music!!

[@howlinhobbit]

starting this video and not seeing Natalie gave me the same reaction as seeing someone I like in Twitter’s “trending” section. like… OMG! what happened to Natalie! thanks for clearing that up at the end. it’s a good thing to have more music to make.

[@jacobrstout]

Love the new group and the musical textures that it brings to the channel. Everything you guys do is gold, love listening to all the amazing musicians you guys feature.

[@ginoeelen6374]

Yay, I'm the 1K liker of this video! 🙂 Been following you guys/girls since forever. Was dancing in the living room to this one. Great work! Thank you so much for spreading music and fun.

[@frankgwirtz8377]

The amazing amount of work that goes into your music and your productions is so clearly evident in every detail of the visuals and the sound. You provide your audience with an open window into the world of music and music production that lays a path for others to follow.

[@OridanIX]

I've been excited about things before, sure, but I don't think I've ever been as BEARD-RUBBINGLY-EXCITED as Nataly is at 6:46 lmao Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing (and hearing) what comes of this!

[@colinandrews2120]

Ooooo!? Ahhhh! Go for it 😍

[@stephcck49]

i dont rmb ever leaving any youtube comments but i've been following u guys for a long time and i rly appreciate how adamant you've been in ur creative journey. The first video i saw was the (historical) Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy cover >10 yrs ago, when i was in junior yrs of high school. I was, and still am, stunned by ur talent and quirky creativity. Later I learnt that Jack is also the founder of Patreon - i believe the platform is life-changing to many creators out there. u guys are totally an inspiration. keep it up!

As a piano man, thank you so much for making a band where it’s cool to be a keyboard player. 🥳

Once again, single handedly transforming both KZbin and the music industry. Amazing! I love it! Do all the things (that you love, and are good at, or you want to be better at, and can draw more people into)! One day the music will have Six Degrees of Pomplamoose (the equivalent of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, but funkier).

[@corear]

Fantastic.

[@ObsidianContraption]

Cool cover! Not to be confused with the 1970's band Magazine. You guys got 2 i's

[@SnakeAndTurtleQigong]

Fun, thanks so much from a Daoist monastery near smokey Seattle!

[@quailstudios]

It's great that you are so passionate about your music. Not really a fan of music that is mostly synthesized... how to say this... just keyboards, and digital drums, and seems like computer music. That's what this song sounds like to me. Also it sounds like its quantized. You know, snapped to the grid. I like real instruments and music that breathes. Maybe I'll do a video on that concept if you're not getting it here in my post.

[@Travolax]

Wonderful... I'm looking forward to more wonderful music. THANKS! 🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼

[@Brian-gg8kp]

Love it, love you both. The talent showcased is awesome.

[@kevinchastain727]

This is what music and art is all about the introducing of new artiest to the peoples of the world, the first I saw this was with Alan Parsons then Lindsey Sterling their is now others like Josh Turner and Post Modern Jukebox. Introducing new voices and musicians is a good thing and only helps contribute to the world of art and culture, I guess you could call this open source music.

[@MysteryProductsLtd]

There was already a band called Magazine, the lead singer was called Howard Devoto.

[@crapple5759]

That was Magazine, a post-Buzzcocks project in the '70s. This is Magaziine, but yes, there's also already a Magaziine. www.youtube.com/@magaziine7967/about

Love you guys! Great music! I appreciate your hard work, spontaneity, humor and sincerity in following your passion and sharing that with other people that love music!

It's either confidence or foolhardiness to invest in a full-blown neon sign with two i's then announce your start with a cover song. Good luck.

There's already a band called Magazine. From the UK. They were punk/new wave/rock. Actually a pretty good band. I used to listen to them a lot in the 80's.

[@pospanipas]

There's also this band: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magazin

[@DannyJamesGuitar]

That's probably why they used two "i"s in their name, if I was to guess.

[@rudebuddha4895]

I once tried to help a friend of mine find a name for his band. He had a great one in mind but another band was already using it. I tried several of my ideas and they were all taken. Finally, as a final "F-it" I thought I'd try the most ridiculous name I could think up so I searched for a band named "The Shit Birds". Nope it was taken. I gave up.

[@7000fps]

Right , Howard Devoto may have sompin to say. And using two "i'"s wont stop music industry lawyers. SUITE UP!!!!!

[@Joey_Headset]

@@rudebuddha4895 I've had the same experience, but with DJ names. I gave up after "DJ Beat Loaf" was taken.

[@CliffordBeshers]

Five thumbs up to more original music from Natalie with a sustainable process.

[@StefanHayden]

The arrangement on this song is really A+.

[@CAPFlyer]

Really loving this groove. I like the name because it's so descriptive of what you're wanting to do with it, and also the vibe. I see Scary Pockets as your homage to the 1970s Funkadelic joy that was, Magaziine is now you're homage to 1980's synthy fun and pop, and Pomplamoose is just *YOU*. No project really treading on another musically, everything working much like what y'all were saying in the video - in cool harmonies. Can't wait for the next year!

[@HermelJaworski]

Arielle Kasnetz and Anilee List voices are incredible!

[@keiser6656]

Genius idea, I love it !

[@shmeli]

So when I searched up the name of your new band there's already a magazine music website and Instagram page and everything and it's not you guys

[@dillonrodriquez9873]

That could have been the actual song and would have been just as iconic as its inspiration. That was amazing!!!

[@danielcameron9857]

So awesome to see synths featured this way! I'm excited to see what comes from this new venture and experiment!! Really good first entry and fabulous intro!

It's a surprisingly common band name, I must say. I know three with it (one brazilian!). Great news!
