Dijon opened for Bon Iver last night in Atlanta. He and 4 musicians sat around an 8ft folding table. Nothing else. They absolutely stole the show (and Bon Iver was excellent btw).
Dijon did the same about 2 weeks ago here in Colorado opened for Rex Orange County he also just sat around a table with his band and he was amazing the way he performs with his band is something beautiful to watch it was my first time ever hearing him and now I’m a big fan of his!
The guy who was also singing and playing lead guitar is another artist/songwriter by the name Mk.Gee and is someone i highly recommend to check out as well! Has a lot of great stuff (:
One might say it is necessary to break rules in order to be radical haha! I think Dijon shows how to break rules, be radical while showing respect for those that came before you by letting them speak through you and your unique voice
The music feels like a real world geographic location, where you walk into a lonely roadside bar and all these different musical sounds and styles have some how come together. It's like watching a new musical genre being born.
Been hooked on this guy since I heard "The Dress" a few weeks ago. Awesome stuff. I agree with the D'Angelo vibes, also throwing in some Bon Iver, Frank Ocean, and Blood Orange into the mix. I dig it for sure.
Dijon has writing credits all over bon iver's last album. He is def one of those hidden gems who solidified himself thru songwriting credits first before he gave us this gift of an album.
@@johnnoesen I usually tend to believe that they (justin, dijon, mk gee) are part of the same school sonically. Andrew sarlo is a mix engineer for justin and mkgee's last records. Dijon has worked with jimmy stacks in the same album bon iver was also featured. I am doing guess work here, but dijon's sonic success is dependent on the connection he has made and built in the bon iver camp.
If y’all like this song, def recommend listening to what he did as a part of the duo Abhi//Dijon (2014 and The Montana EP). Truly amazing to see how his artistry has progressed and evolved since then
I thought you were talking about Abhi the Nomad and I was about to lose my shit because I already lost it when I found out this album was a mk gee and dijon collab.
Exactly what I thought when I first heard it. So beautifully unique. I literally started crying just out of the musical water flowing out of this faucet. When I make new music, I describe it as a faucet, sometimes I turn it on and nothing comes out. This is what a flood looks like. It was in a set built inside of a warehouse. There’s 25 minute film too.
Michael you nailed it with the D’Angelo description. As a matter of fact I’m going to go one step further and say D’Angelo fusion. This was amazing !!! Loved the vibe !!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I've been enjoying that Dijon video for a few weeks now and it was joyous to see your face while you reacted. Your assessment of "I don't know what I just saw, but I really liked it" was exactly my reaction the first time i saw it 💜
you know, i'd usually say i wish i experienced the first time hearing this again but - i still get goosebumps from watching dijon perform this song after several listens
I appreciate your focus on the feeling on the song while incorporating the Lydian idea minimally but emphasizing the simplicity of it is more important
Perfect timing. I just stumbled upon Dijon's album yesterday & really enjoyed it. D'Angelo vibes, for sure, and also Leon Bridges, but more eclectic & experimental.
I’m reacting the same way. The video is so bizarre, but it sounds awesome! Cool voice, and it’s cool that the guitar player is playing the melody in sync with singer.
They are awesome, found them a few month ago and I´m still mesmerized! Love to see your reaction, I must have looked the same when I heard this for the first time.
the crazy thing is i cannot stop listening to Absolutely and that’s exactly why! i made the connection to D’angelo or Bon Iver spiritually and now to know it’s not just me makes me feel more comfortable.
@@KiNGxDREAMER I honestly don’t see Frank when I hear the comparison but lyrically I can see why he’s mentioned but Prince is definitely one I haven’t thought about yet
I wish this was published version on the album, the instruments sound suppressed like all the other main stream artist do. Let the instruments SING along!
I hope you see this comment. The guitarist in the video just put out, in my opinion, the album of the year a few months ago. It’s honestly such an ear grabber that I can’t believe you’ve come across this but not his album
been on dijon for abt 2 years now and i can say w conviction he’s one of the most unlikable likable artists i listen to. Everything in me wants to hate how that song sounds but yet i love it so much. Dijons a peculiar artist
Hi Michael. “Bizarre “ is putting it lightly! I’m 63 years young, and totally enjoyed that. Your reaction is sincere and priceless. Have you had the opportunity to have seen Marcin Patrzek? If you have, what’s your opinion on his playing?
Do you have try to rect to ALIP BA_TA Indonesia fingerstyle ? please try to react guranted that you will find alot amaze kind of people and many kind of musik with diferent perfectif , pease try...greeting from ALIPER GBU

I saw them probably the next night or show in Miami, and I absolutely agree Dijon was way better than Bon Iver was that night
NO WAY i cant believe i missed a concert like that 😭 BON IVER AND DIJON?!
The guy who was also singing and playing lead guitar is another artist/songwriter by the name Mk.Gee and is someone i highly recommend to check out as well! Has a lot of great stuff (:
Facts
Shout out to Dijon 🙌🏾🙏🏾
what a re a few great songs to get started with Mk.Gee??
Start with the album Pronounced Mcgee
actual factual
This goes to show, you can break all the rules in the book, and still come out with something radical.
FACT
One might say it is necessary to break rules in order to be radical haha! I think Dijon shows how to break rules, be radical while showing respect for those that came before you by letting them speak through you and your unique voice
Had a very Miles Davis feel to it where all the musicians "practice" in their performance and fit themselves together while still playing freely.
as a dijon lifer, seeing you watch this for the first time made me tear tf up
Glad i wasnt the only one
no literally
@@sticksandsquiggles5847 He was whitnessing greatness and we got to see it... amazing!
on god
literally i wanted someone to share how much i love this with for so long
I don't think I've ever seen Michael full-on speechless while reacting to a video.

@@fiveoh3814 hey, curious, where did you see that Dijon collaborated with Bon Iver?
Ok with those comparisons I now have to go dive in to all their stuff!
@@johnnoesen I usually tend to believe that they (justin, dijon, mk gee) are part of the same school sonically. Andrew sarlo is a mix engineer for justin and mkgee's last records.

Also Arthur Russell
He just release a 25 minute full length film of this recording of the album. Worth every second
HE TOOK IT DOWN AND IM PISSED. ITS SO BEAUTIFUL
he took it down😭😭😭😭😭
its back :)
If y’all like this song, def recommend listening to what he did as a part of the duo Abhi//Dijon (2014 and The Montana EP). Truly amazing to see how his artistry has progressed and evolved since then
Classics
sometimes i hear the word "underrated", i don't think it's strong enough to describe Dance Song
I thought you were talking about Abhi the Nomad and I was about to lose my shit because I already lost it when I found out this album was a mk gee and dijon collab.
Nah, different Abhi. Just found out about Abhi the Nomad last year. He’s got great music too
Stay Up is my favorite album ever. I wish Dijon let everyone know of his talented past that made my highschool years.
There's at least three more he has done in this recorded/filmed format. My personal favorite is "Talk Down"
Best song
I love Talk Down. Someone said they feel like he’s pioneering a new genre and I 1000% agree
Talk down slapps 🤘
I thought this track was great, but Talk Down completely sold me.
I discovered Dijon about 2 weeks ago, I like "Many Times", that's what turned me on to his music.
Man got so immersed in it then stopped talking and started playing and shaking his hands and head. Gotta love it!
There's a few loops in there he's cutting in and out on demand. But this is a live recording. Amazing!
Had the same reaction. One of the most exciting musicians for me rn
So immersive, it makes you want to be in there playing whatever.
Dijon might be the only musician that I found through an ad.
It's like an amalgam of American music; jazz, RnB, country, rock,
This kept violating expectations in really delicious ways

This was awesome so pleasing to hear sonically harmonically all the little details. Amazing..
1st time watching any of your video. The fact that you like this song on your 1st listen earns you my subscription.
loving that your first listen blows you away like it did me. am now totally hooked. there is tons more of this "show" on his youtube channel.
i’ve been listening to dijon for a while now, he’s so creative and talented, and his music is always super cool
Michael you nailed it with the D’Angelo description. As a matter of fact I’m going to go one step further and say D’Angelo fusion. This was amazing !!! Loved the vibe !!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The coolest thing I have heard and seen in a while! Thanks for sharing.
Loved this song. Love your channel! Thanks for the content

Your reaction was awesome! Dijon is a dope artist and this recording had D’Angelo vibes all over it! Love it💪🏾
It’s soooo freaking magnetic to see such a talented group of souls vibe in the same frequency. ❤
he just released a full film for the album with multiple songs done live like this. you should definitely check it out!
It’s unbelievable
Can’t believe the director reached out to him, dude’s a genius.
@@alison-dt5ke fax
Love this song, and Dijon. Glad you got to experience this one!
It was really fun to watch somebody watch this for the first time. Thank you!
you know, i'd usually say i wish i experienced the first time hearing this again but - i still get goosebumps from watching dijon perform this song after several listens
Whoa! I'm always looking for the next enchanting musician I've never heard of. What a gift.
THANK YOU for doing this
This is such a good artist. I'm so glad you reacted to it.

Perfect timing. I just stumbled upon Dijon's album yesterday & really enjoyed it. D'Angelo vibes, for sure, and also Leon Bridges, but more eclectic & experimental.
this was such a fun video to watch. I tensed up and was fascinated in the same way when I first watched it
I have been binge watching your channel and was going to suggest listening to Dijon. Beat me to it! Keep it up!!
That video brings so much soul and chemistry had me smiling the whole watch
I’m reacting the same way. The video is so bizarre, but it sounds awesome! Cool voice, and it’s cool that the guitar player is playing the melody in sync with singer.
Aguardo ansioso por seus vídeos! O melhor canal de guitarra.
Coming back to this 2 years later and love it just as much as the first time
its so crazy Jack himself reached out to you, I thought it was just a random subscriber that sent it in. loved dijon since 2017
yesssss, its amazing you did one for this
made me soooo happy seeing someone appreciate this as much as i do!!! its amazing
I LOVE THAT YOURE LISTENING TO DIJON!!!!
i just love how much this rocked michael. felt the exact same way. one of my all time favorites.
He had my favorite album of 2021! I can’t wait to see what he does in the future
They are awesome, found them a few month ago and I´m still mesmerized! Love to see your reaction, I must have looked the same when I heard this for the first time.
favorite artist and favorite guitar teacher in one video. there’s a full album performance releasing on youtube today
Michael your reaction is what I need when I share Dijon with friends. Thank you
Just discovered too so this is perfect timing thanks!
i had the exact same reaction. this is the first song I heard from him! definitely one to keep an eye on
Was like watching myself hear it for the first time! Loved this video
I just saw him live in Austin, TX opening for Bon Iver! This guy is and his band are incredible live. Felt like I was watching Prince sing Springsteen
Bonkers. There’s a real strangely satisfying groove to this. Ima put my phone down and go play it on proper speakers.
seeing someone else experiencing this for the first time is so sick, reminds me of when I first saw it too!
So glad you found him dude. Just got clued into his stuff a few weeks back by another musician/youtuber.
One of the albums of the year, for sure. Vibe for days.
I remember the first I saw this video. Amazing vibes and chemistry from Dijon and the other musicians.
I’ve loved Dijon for years and it absolutely makes me extremely happy seeing him get more and more recognition!
It sounds like r&b with some hip hop with a touch of rock. Very good.
The entire short film is amazing
It makes me so happy to finally see my favorite artist get this recognition
Please, react fingerstyle guitar Alip Ba Ta from Indonesia. Tks
yes sir, mayby u interested in harmonic skill of Mr. Alip_ba_ta, a guys from Indonesia, a humble man with a lot of talent in Guitars...
What a intriguing song!👏 👀👋😎
This guy’s mustard!! Love it.
the crazy thing is i cannot stop listening to Absolutely and that’s exactly why! i made the connection to D’angelo or Bon Iver spiritually and now to know it’s not just me makes me feel more comfortable.
+Frank Ocean +Prince
@@KiNGxDREAMER I honestly don’t see Frank when I hear the comparison but lyrically I can see why he’s mentioned but Prince is definitely one I haven’t thought about yet
Not vocally, so much. They don't really sound alike to me. I'm thinking more so in some of the style and lyrical choices he makes.
HAVE YOU WATCHED THE ENTIRE ALBUM ON VIDEO? ITS AMAZING! They turned his debut album into a production so this was actually done on a set
If you wanna talk about crazy, watch Many Times (Live) by him. Mk.gee & Dijon both go crazy on the track which gets me hype every time.
Wow - my brain has been set alight, love it !
Alip ba ta = tomy emanuel the legend
this was joyful to watch
I wish this was published version on the album, the instruments sound suppressed like all the other main stream artist do. Let the instruments SING along!
dude is a genius, everything he has released
I hope you see this comment. The guitarist in the video just put out, in my opinion, the album of the year a few months ago. It’s honestly such an ear grabber that I can’t believe you’ve come across this but not his album
He goes by the name mkgee, dying to see him blow you away 😂
Woah!!!! This is super cooool!
I don't know where they are at, but they fo sho on some real shit!!! Outstanding!!!!
Cek for alip_ba_ta.. Fingerstyle for Indonesia... Fenomena...
Glorious video. That's the only way to groove when Dijon is playing

i highly recommend his old stuff as well jaw dropping stuff
the whole absolutely album film is out on dijon’s channel!
Dude I had this same reaction watching this the first time 😭 it literally entrances you 😩🤘 their song Many Times is my fuckin jamm
Love Dijon, he has a video for most of the songs on his album. Super experimental, please react to more!
Once again this amazing channel has opened my eyes (and ears) to something I would never have stumbled across on my own. So good!!!
Thank you so much!!!!
