How can there be negative comments!?!? These guys just performed a live version of a Beatles songs that’s just looped tape recordings/samples. the Beatles probably thought this couldn’t be performed live!
I think it’s probably the amount of time it took us to do the set up. People don’t realize we’re actually recording those loops live and reversing/pitching them to approximate the original 😅😂
I down voted it because in order for there to be a positive there has to be a negative. So it's necessary in order to play off the opposing pole. And anyway, my parents made me this way. Just kidding. I really enjoyed this...!
Great! This song is difficult to cover. Your performance and arrangements are very good. I have 69 and when I first heard this song I was 12 and it sounded weird to me. But I liked it anyway because I was already a Beatles fan. After 2 or 3 years I begin to like it better and better because I was listening to other psychedelic songs. I hope you have a good life.
This is probably the BEST COVER of TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS I've been lucky enough to stumble upon. I love the opening. Some bits reminded me a bit of Talvin Singh's Butterfly. You guys did an amazing cover. Thank you!
Wow! I wish I'd seen this live. This must have been a bear and a half to do the arrangement and think out how to perform the elements of this! Thank god for loopers and delays!
@@javierdiaz88 hey, I’m the guitarist. My bandmate (the bald guy walking around with a microphone) was looping using Ableton Live with a foot controller. He set it up to reverse and pitch up all the loops to the proper speed (based on the original Beatles tape loops) when he pressed a button. Not sure how he did that, though!
Hats off guys. The original song pioneered tape loops I think and has inspired many artists today using these techniques which, back then, on 4 track, was... revolutionary
What an wonderful surprise! ! Thanks for posting. Just amazing an amazing sound. I love the original but love when bands play a well know song and make it their own.
@@jamesvredenburgh5957 looks cool! I will check it out! I'm a big fan of June 1, 1974 with Eno, Kevin Ayers (LOVE LOVE LOVE KEVIN AYERS), John Cale, and Nico. Heard that one?
Masterful interpretation and performance of a Beatles classic. Can you imagine that there are people who have never heard this song? Poor, culturally deprived children! You must have blown their minds. Lennon would have dug it!
hey there! curious, would you mind if I did a react/"mindful music review" of this cover? :) I attempted a review video of another beatles tune and it got blocked before it even posted - I thought reaching out about covers could be a fun alternative :D
Agree! I’m the guitarist in the band. I’m afraid the first four minutes may have turned some people off. We were actually reconstructing the tape loops that Paul McCartney used in the original by playing each of the parts (on guitar, French horn, laughing into a mic) and then reversing the sounds and pitch shifting them live with a computer program! This was our first attempt covering the song, and it took longer to make all the samples than I hoped. We tried to make an interesting psychedelic soundscape out of it, but it’s not for everyone lol. There’s another video where we got there a little quicker, but this one seems to be the one that caught on. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@MilesGannett Don't get me wrong. It was a good cover after the first 4 minutes and the singer sounded much like the Beatles Lennon when she used the bullhorn. You were great on guitar!
Not trying to reinvent the wheel. Just taking it for a spin, both to pay homage to the original and because you don't hear that one performed live often.
This is the most insane cover I’ve ever seen in my entire life, wow wow wow
Wow... I could just imagine, stopping in that bar and having a beer. And then witnessing this masterpiece. Great job.
Kudos! That’s a tough song to play live and you did a great version
That's kick ass. Love the megaphone at just the right time. You got the seagulls and everything!

Thank you! You can’t please everyone, I guess.

Los Lobos did an awesome version years ago, too.
@vikinghigh Los Lobos' version is absolute live perfection! Next level.

Singing through the bullhorn was perfect for this song!
I have just two words to describe my reaction: "OUTTA SIGHT!!!!!" Thank you Fractal Cat Band.
You just took my mind to third base
This cover is incredible. This is by far my favorite Beatles song and you guys did it justice beyond comprehension!!
Amazing, love from India. This takes me back
wow! Very impressive to get the sounds recorded and mixed right there. Plus the guitarist had to play a solo that was recorded backwards. Incredible!
Great! This song is difficult to cover. Your performance and arrangements are very good. I have 69 and when I first heard this song I was 12 and it sounded weird to me.

THE PAUL LAUGH/BIRD OMG
Gorgeous. You are beauty, the body electric, human creativity personified. Thank you.
Great job. Buried in a river of music.
This is a difficult song to cover but you guys are very impressive!
Appreciate it!

To perform this song live ! Kudos well done !! got that trippy 60s feel for sure !
the hair and graphics....
This is the coolest cover i have heard
at least they followed the spirit of the track and it was recognizable....
Wow! I wish I'd seen this live. This must have been a bear and a half to do the arrangement and think out how to perform the elements of this! Thank god for loopers and delays!
msspi764 Thanks! It was a fun challenge to try to recreate the original tape loops live.
@@FractalCatBand wich looper did you use to play in this performance? 🎵

Excellent interpretation of one of The Beatles must difficult interpretation. Great cover.
I wish I was there! 🤯
Only a minute in, but: The Beatles mixed with Pink Floyd
Loved being able to see this live. Fantastic set up! Cosmic vibe. Went there.
IMPRESSIVE ♡
Great cover.
Outstanding performance of an impossible masterpiece.
Thanks, Mark!
Wow this could, should have been longer. Man I'm blown away. This 1 and Juliet Prowse are my favorites.
What an wonderful surprise! ! Thanks for posting. Just amazing an amazing sound.
I love the original but love when bands play a well know song and make it their own.
cool version, i love this song from my beatles :-) 4ever
This is very good when it starts
Thanks! I know the set up takes a long time…
Amazing!!
Brilliant ❤
Great cover of a song immensely difficult to play as a live ensemble.
hope that was in a bar in a recreational state....
Wow! Well done!
John would have preferred Yoko doing the screaming part, but well I personally think the female singer did an excellent job
Lennon hadn't met Yoko Ono in 1966 when he wrote Tomorrow Never Knows.
Great job. Totally trippy.
Love the vibe
Happy 80th Anniversary of Bicycle Day (and 5 year anniversary of this video)! Thanks to everyone who's watched this video and commented!
Beautiful...
What a terrific rendition of one of the most notoriously difficult compositions. Well Done!
I love how high can this make you feel.... so magical and psyddelich, o r g a s m
Wow, I always thought this song is really hard to cover, you guys did an impressive cover.
Thanks!
absolutley nailed it - great work.
Intelligence and love mourning the dead! Superb!!
Definitely Worth a Listen...
A Great rendition of a Classic Beatle Number...
Impresionante!!!
Sorry I'm coming in so late on this - just found it. You guys rock. John would love this I'm sure.
By far the best remake!
excellent!
if you know how this song was created then you know how complicated it must have been to plan it live. The song was only ever mixed in studio.
This is what DMT sounds like.
Well done! Love the version.
1k views ? what this is great and meanwhile a girl gets 5 million views for playing sultans of swing to the record?
Cool cover. Well done!
Eric Johnson "Venus Isle" (album - 1996) :)
Oh my god wish I could have seen this LIVE
Good. Very emotional version.. thx
Really excellent
Fantastic
...good skills...
Beautiful 🎉!! ❤
Good cover, but how about cutting that intro in half?
Wow! My tribe!
Fractal meow. Super wow!!!
801 live. Eno et. al.Try it.

Very impressive version. I find it much better than the one by Los Lobos, after I heard their cover of this song.

Hey! We’d be cool with that :)
@@FractalCatBand awesome, thank you! i'll keep you posted :)
PS you guys rock, hope to see you at a festival again soon !!!
Oh my ! I doff my cap .
mantab
Si lo Beatles hubieran hecho más música como esta con tremenda melodía te hace volar yo seria fanático de ellos
#T$NK
Ufffffff!!!!
Could've done without the four minute abstract intro, but otherwise, its good.
I liked that
Good cover of a difficult song to play live because of the number of loops the Beatles used.
Bass player looks like he’s thinking “I came here to play one note.”
One note yes but that groove....
A nice cover after the first 4 minutes (which wasn't needed) and adding of the bullhorn made it more John Lennon like.
Agree! I’m the guitarist in the band. I’m afraid the first four minutes may have turned some people off.

I have seen some shit in my time. But this takes the piss..........
*why is the people so salty?*
Jajajajajajaja whit yoko inclusive
lol
Intro too long..
You smoke that stuff everything gets kinda weird
Tomorrow never knows from the Beatles is the wheel, why try to reinvent it?
Not trying to reinvent the wheel. Just taking it for a spin, both to pay homage to the original and because you don't hear that one performed live often.
cool! who said you youngsters don't know shit !! two words :)
Unintelligible but enjoyable.
An auto accident to be sure................
It’s a long setup for sure, but did you watch long enough for the song to kick in?
@@MilesGannett If, you're gonna copy a Van Gogh or, Dali you really should be able to paint!
That long intro was unnecessary. Just start pounding the drums PLEASE
Intro too damn long
Tru. Although, "If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe."
@@FractalCatBand*deep*
The first 4 minutes are garbage...the caterwauling girl needs to go.
BORING!!!!! What an over indulgent YAWN FEST.
Yup.
Wow. Something worse than Yoko Ono's music. 😳😳😳
I'm with you.... whole thing was kind of a hot mess.
excellent!
