I am mind blown. I am South African and I recently started listening to jazz after I discovered snarky puppy on NPR tiny desk . The tribal part is so relatable to that of my sepedi traditional music . The Bapedis are a South African tribal group and have a traditional dance that the men perform at celebrations e.g weddings. That tribal drum brings back so many great memories I had as a child . Thank you snarky puppy .
Being a Moroccan myself, I hear the best improvised “ Moroccan Chaabi “ rhythm from 3:45. This would kill as live gig in Morocco. Would love to see them live. Greeting from Oslo Norway. Omar.
I don't care what anyone says, snarky puppy is breaking new grounds. Seems like some people don't like change. When you're a musician you have to be open to new sounds. I really dig this track
This is pure magic, pure genius. I've listen to this song 15 times in a row, i can't stop, the harmonies, the rythm, the cuts, the solos, everything is perfect. WTF GUYS
What feels bad is that these rhymes are inherited in Morocco where I come from. Basically everyone can understand and play the polyrhythm. I actually understand every bit of this song because it surrounds me. And those guys understood and tranformed it during their visit to Morocco. Respect to snarky puppy
This is flipping awesome - it has a tonne of 70s - 00s influences (but is still uniquely Snarky) - including Lalo Schiffrin, Weather Report, Herbie Hancock even flipping Jamiroquai just thrown in there. As a percussionist I love the last section. More of this please!!
As a percussionist/drummer myself, I have to ask you guys... How do you record THREE different drummers/drum tracks and make it sound like only one?!? With the difficulty some bands have getting just even ONE good drum track... Mind. Blown.
Disclaimer, I'm no drummer. But I think they craft the part together and then record it in studio and it becomes a drum circle/relay/musical chair thing. Because from section to section the drums sound... different? But like slightly. Like the first drummer sounds like Larnell Lewis. Tight. Precise. Reminds me of his work on WLIH from 0:00 to 0:46 The 2nd sounds big and wide. And that kick is just huge and gut-punching. I think it's Jamison Ross? 0:46 to 1:29 The 3rd has this deep, tight, dark but syrupy (...?) snare, but the way its attacked reminds me of Jason JT Thomas' work on the Forq albums, so I think it's him 1:30 to 1:50 Not entirely sure. But the drums do sound different every now and then. Like checkpoints. But it's so well crafted and executed.
Musical genius. A departure from the ever engaging, fusiony, jazzy, rocky, funky, percussive masterpieces into a really moving stand alone piece of beauty. I listened to it three times on the trot and loved it more every time. Thank you for your ongoing contribution to my ears and everyone else's too. Can't wait to see you in Melbourne on April 26th!
As a drummer/percussionist I'm always interested in rhythms from other cultures. So I was wondering what it is about the rhythm at 5:46 that makes it Moroccan. Just the placement of the beats/accents? Nevertheless, I love it.
Renz Maiko Zervoulakos go to music school and you'll be in class with 700 theory heads who play shit like this...less is more and this shit is full of gimmicky overcomplexity....I'm sorry but I just can't get into it! I know ur not allowed to say they suck but this sounds like a higher quality lethal weapon soundtrack...thumbs down, someone has to say it! The bottom line of music is how it sounds...this is advanced musicianship for advanced musicianships sake...feels like homework, not vibey! Certainly not as original as everyone gives them credit for...it's a path well travelled and if it's new to you that's because no one bought the other three million albums that sound like this and it faded into obscurity until these hipsters drug it back out, inappropriately, in the age of a truly new, unexplored digital music frontier!
I really like Newen Afrobeat and this snarky track, the last half of this track is an immense earworm I get constant cravings for that flutey part, amazing
The visit of Essaouia, Morocco and its influence is present all over the song! Perfect appropriation of Moroccan instruments also!! I was amazed that all the Moroccan instruments stated in the description were played by non Moroccans!!! Great stuff!!!
oh how i love the fresh ideas that had been poured from 1:29 . Man my senses are tingling for your new exploration in sounds, i hear so many unique sounds in this song
came here from one of the airpod review youtube video where the dude was testing the quality based on this song and I am glad I did.. such a splendid music.. so intricate and so well mixed, no words.. I think I got my new favorite group to obsess over
So wide and rich the soundss!! is very universal like from a lot of places and cultures. I love it! Cool and fresh like always. Excited to listen the complete album. I'm catalan and its funny see this name of song!! Thanks for caress my ears again!!!!!
In a time when everybody and their brother is playing crabcore djent bs and disguising it as jazz fusion, this is very refreshing. No breakdowns, no shityy ass guitar tone, no pretentious wanking. Just a tasteful, technical combination of many different sounds. I hope this group never dies. Can anyone point me to some stuff similar to this? Not necessarily similar in sound, but some good jazz fusion that's not just metal crap.
Do you recall music themes from the 'Columbo' tv series (honestly, some of them remind me King Crimson music). It was my first association after I read your comment.
wahya wa ahayih hda ha ahayih hda wahya wa . at the end you got some Morrocan signature . Thanks to you snarky puppy you know how to get inspired. And how to speak an other language/cultur with your way :) without changing the main message.
Just last week I stopped by my old high school band director's house to give him some copies of Culcha Vulcha, Sylva, and We Love It Here. When I finished rambling on about my new favorite band, he asked if they were still together and still releasing new material. It was a valid question considering he doesn't know much about them and their last release came out in 2016. My answer was, "They better be!!" I opened my email inbox today and what do I see? New Snarky Puppy album dropping March 15th!!! Yes!! So did they record "Immigrance" like they recorded "Culcha Vulcha"? In the studio with no audience? It sounds like it. So far it sounds like Culcha Vulcha's cousin, which is cool.
Can't wait for the next song: 'Iniesta'
Maybe even a Kluyvert

They are sick indeed, don't know if they can ever the Don Ellis Orchestra

That would be a stretch

Ever since he left barcelona, I was wondering when we were gonna get a jazz tribute to one of the greatest footballers of all time.
Saw them live last october in cologne, awesome band and i have seen some awesome bands in my time, these guys are bad ass.

@@emilioguzmanalvarez420 Considering that they did exactly what they described in Empire Central, they were most likely right on the money.
@@justinberling4946 You're right, the snare sound is the most noticeable difference between sections, to me.
God the section at 1 minute ant 28 seconds sent me to heaven and back
Chills every time
Ikr, i can listen to it for unlimited times and still get chills on my spine.
Mark and his barytone guitar 8:16 .. love that shit
I'm listening to this high as hell and I actually had to pause it cause I couldn't handle it.
Dont need drugs for the snark !
Hahaha I'm also stoned af right now. You don't need drugs but listening to such amazing music sober or not always feels surreal
Immediately made my day better
Same.
The weather was beautiful this morning, this came on Jazz FM and I managed to keep my car no less than 50mph.
What a bop! I love the culcha vulcha vibes still present in this! Sick

Love that part from 7:51, it's absolutely amaziiiiing ! The horns melody keeps in my head !
Great thing to wake up to is a notification of a new track on YT from SP!
6:19 when dat flute enters its over pure funk
I feel truly privileged for being one of the first people to hear this. One of my favorite acts is back with new stuff, and this feels awesome!
6/8 rhythm pure Moroccan performance 5:46 !!!! brilliant!!!!!!! Obviously He got some inspiration from his last visit to Essaouira.
thanks was trying to figure out the time signature.
That's what I thought!

Exactly my reaction, the moroccan chaabi 6/8 thingy, and btw your name also means of my fav moroccan rhythms in 5/8 "haouara"!
I hear it as more of a 3/4 pulse rather than a 6/8 where the pulse is usually in two. That’s just me though.
Snarky Puppy, a true and one of a kind brilliant musicians i know! Hats off guys! Cheers 🥂

@@logicalconceptofficial Oh shut up!
The transition between drummers is so smooth in this one.
Getting heavy Mahavishnu Orchestra vibes from this. It's the distorted violin. Also, it's amazing.
(You Must be Kidding.....)
I ignored their existence but thanks for sharing! Definetely looking them up rn!
I was just thinking about Jean Luc Ponty when the violin kicked in. Glad someone else got that comparison!
3:05 sounds so much like 4:45 on One Word - Mahavishnu . Almost seems like a nod ;)
@@guiliano4 haha i had to listen to it like five times, before i even noticed the violin, but yes, sounds a lot like Ponty
Holy heck! That piano solo! And that chord progression. Right in the feels!
Oh!!!
THAT piano SOLO!!! 🥰💯🎉🎶
I really like Newen Afrobeat and this snarky track, the last half of this track is an immense earworm I get constant cravings for that flutey part, amazing
You guys NEVER disappoint!!!!
Chills on my first listening. Just wow.
Heard this last night live at their Chicago stop. Amazing!
All I really want, is more of what I feel when listening to Snarky Puppy.
1:27 literally gave me chills
smooth as butter
Sameeee

8:06 heck yes
