- Hey y'all! Welcome or welcome back to my little corner of the Internet!
Today we're checking out another song by the Ukranian band, Jinjer!
You guys recommended this song to me and this time I chose the music video version. Let's check out Tatianna's powerful vocals once again! - เพลง
Jinjer is always playing with rhythm and genre. I recommend "Judgment and Punishment" (One take vocal performance) for a follow up reaction. Good work. (Subbed)
Thank you!!
Lol jinjer is basically multi-genre influenced s-tier technical proggy djent groove metal with polyrhythms and interwoven riffage floating through a complex time signature maze...it's anti 4/4 stuff most of the time 😂😂....that's just what their whole music and discog fundamentally is 😂😂
Jinjer - Perennial (Live at Wacken 2019)
Jinjer - Pit of Consciousness (Live in Kiev)
Jinjer - Pisces (Live Session)
Jinjer - On The Top (Live in Kiev)
Jinjer - Who Is Gonna Be The One (Official Live)
Jinjer - Judgement & Punishment (Tatiana One Take Vocal)
Jinjer - Teacher Teacher (Official Video)
Jinjer - Captain Clock (Live at Resurrection Fest 2018)
Hahahaha oh my XD
Thanks for the recommendations.
I've already reacted to Perennial ;) You can go check it out!
As I have told others, Identifying Jinjer time signatures is a fool's errand. MORE JINJER!!!
It's good to know I'm not alone!
True. I'm a drummer myself (only simple punk-rock stuff), and I completely fail to count their songs.
What's great about their (rythmic) writing is, it's still not off-throwing at all, it still feels natural and musical, not "intentionally made complicated to show off". Even Pisces, one of their more "simple"/catchy songs, jumps from 7/8 to 6/8 to 4/4 to 9/8.
Stay on 8. Follow the ride. They swap 7/8, 5/8, 4/4, and, 3/4 in, but 8 is the magic number overall. They will drop into 6 and 7 time signatures, but it's rare. Jazz training is important with them.
thanx for your reaction and your interest in this extraordinary band........
til your next Jinjer reaction > subbed
lovely greetings from germany
Thank you very much!
Yes she was 28 when she wrote this. The song is about her search for a soulmate. The lyric "28 light years" even though it's a measure of distance not time. She felt it worked so she used it. The way I look at it though is that she talked in an interview of how it was about her search for a soulmate and that she felt somewhere in this universe or another there was one (as it turned out she found one) and that if you were a scientist with a fast spacecraft searching the cosmos for something you might travel 28 light years in your search and eventually think "this has to stop some day".
I see. Thanks for sharing this information. It makes the song sound more beautiful. :)
Hey, Astronomy is merely the anatomy of the universe. Does that work? I don't know. Love your glasses. Happy purple to you :)
Hahaha that works!
And thank you ☺️
One of the bigger reactors describes Jinjer as "aggressive jazz musicians". The odd time signatures can be a little disorienting at first but makes the songs more interesting as you become accustomed...
Oooh interesting description! Ok I'll try to keep that in mind. :D
The rhythm in the intro is emulating morse code, which goes with the theme of communicating with someone from far away without speaking
😮😮😮😮 cool!!
That makes me even MORE confident that Jinjer is the Rush of a new generation. They do SO MUCH with so few members that it blows me away. Every song is a banger with amazing musicality.
This is a great but strangely complex song and will take a few plays to get the feel of it. You are correct about the difficult time signature. I love Tati's clean vocals. Her Judgement and Punishment One take performance will be more enjoyable. Take care my precious purple princess!🥰
The mind-mangling three bar riff in the opening two verses is 6/8, 7/8, 6/8 with the final bar split into four one and a half beat intervals. Took me a couple of days to figure it out! The intro is 5/8, the chorus (if that's what you'd call it, though with Jinjer, it's sometimes hard to tell) 8/8 (or 4/4), the quiet bit is in 15/8 (or alternating 7/8 and 8/8 bars) and the finale is back in 8/8 (4/4) again.
That's... a lot of changes 🤣
Tatiana is the lyricist and she is also from Ukraine, so you have to excuse her grammatical 'errors'... I think some of the errors are actually cute...
I believe her native language is Russian as she is from Eastern Ukraine, the Russian-speaking area...
Don't let the crazy time signatures throw you for a loop, it's just Jinjer doing Jinjer things!
Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣
song structure isn't a set in stone thing, why do people think this ? music is expression, there isn't a way its supposed to be for your comfort. ill never understand why people think that if they cant tap their toes to it, then its bad...
🤘🇺🇦🤘
Tu ers especial 😊
As a prog metal band, they experiment with different time signatures. This one starts in 5/8, then goes to 4/4 but also adds 6/8 and 7/8
Nice reaction! 👌 If you want more female fronted metal music i suggest you reacts to Arch Enemy from Sweden. They are an famous Melodic Death metal and their former singer Angela Gossow is one of the most influental female growlers of all time. Songs like Bloodstained Cross, Nemesis, As the pages burn, The Watcher and The World is Yours are some of their best ones.
Thank you!
And thank you for the recommendation, I'll add them to my list 😃
Hablamos sin saber
fluid tempo is kinda a thing here , great job.
If You want to loose the sense of rythm try - Tool -"Pneuma" - Danny Carey drum cam video by Vic Firth 😁 or any Tool song
Ahahaha I don't know if I want to do that, but I'll add it to my list anyway! Thanks! XD
Слухай живу..!
I soak anatomy after a long day at work
XDD
Count the verse, 6-7-6
Sei Bellissima
Grazie!
Ну вроде бы всё логично, сначала был хаос, потом гармония.
I Speak Astronomy - I Speak Anatomy - as you do as well.
Almost impossible to tell anyone's anatomy anymore - shame really.
Que esplicas?
can you please tell me what grammatical errors are there? I learn English and I'm curious to know
It's a song, so grammar doesn't really matter much. But like I mentioned, she does put the emphasis on the wrong syllable at times.
Which honestly, I do too...
One line I find interesting, because it's easily "fixable" is "if there is Lord out there" instead of "if there's a Lord out there". But that's really knit-picky.
@@easyfunkycrazy thank you
Tatiana speaks English as a third language and struggled with writing and speaking in English quite a lot. She even talks about being afraid of saying something wrong in her lyrics in the song "Wallflower". It's a big reason why Eugene is the band's spokesperson - he speaks English more fluently than the rest of the band and is seen in interviews and at meet and greets speaking more than Roman, Vlad, or Tatiana
Wallflower is a song written by Tatiana about her loathing of the responsibility of being the band's "voice" and responsibility of having to write words to this music, how she didn't apply for the job in the first place (she was asked and only joined to help out some friends) and the bitterness toward the expectations of her from the band and the audience
@@neilpatrickhairless English is hard! It's my 3rd language too so I get it.
Si no escuchas
Такты, такты и ещё раз такты. Я так понимаю, что если нельзя во время песни кивать головой как метроном, то это очень странная и непонятная песня. Вас просто загнали в определенные "рамки", а ведь можно выйти за эти рамки.
Ni dejas acabar
