Dear Masters at Work. My sincere apologies for the Johannesburg peeps who simply could not get DOWN on your simply awesome mix. This middle aged lady is grooving at home to this beautiful mix. 🕺🪩
Same here. Middle-aged, and I can't stop moving.
Agreed. This crowd not moving is crazy. My computer chair has seen this much groove ever. lol. I can't keep still.
Are you from South Africa? Its seems to be no space to really dance.Masters At Work really pack any dance floor.
a musical master class to teach new generations that you don't need to speed up the BPMs too much for people to enjoy. It is not a question of speed, but of the driver. Thank You MAW ❤
@@FreedomB it’s about the soul and the bassline
Teach how to play without sync or push or stupid all-in-one console😂😂😂
Generally South Africans love mid tempo or 150 or less bpm.
musical master class)))))))))))) ржу нимагу бля
Two of my all time Legendary DJs who are playing to a crowd who are just standing there.
I have seen MAW DJ numerous times in 94/95 Hard Times in England. 4 decks and 2 mixers back then.
No one can dance or are afraid to dance.
Always on point, always deliver.What a combination both Kenny Dope and Louie Vega are. House music champions for over 30 years!!
NYC house legends…
3rd time playing this mix!!! My inspirations 🎉I grew up with house music! I’m a 93 baby. My mom would blast MAW while cleaning up on Sundays after church. 😊
@50:11 fire
Hard to believe the crowd is not dancing like crazy 🤷♂
It's too bland for my taste.
@@Madrrrrrrrrrrrthanks for being honest , because these guys are legends people are afraid to say when they are off. There is just not alot of variety in there. There are many recent great soulful house music coming out and they can and should mix it up
@@ralft That Lil Louis track is great but they mess with it too much. And that boasting intro is also over the top.
I think people are reading the crowd differently because they aren’t dancing, the faces of the crowd seem like they are actually listening to the music, the OGs are in the houseeeeeeee!!!!! They are the masters at work! ❤
Thats my though too. Its dosnt seem to be an ordinary ignorant crowd with their phones
But why are they just standing there not even moving? How is that possible? Just watching Louie like it’s a TED Talk
@@Positive_Tea they are bouncing in a way more or less
@SUNDA2E maw generally play head bobbing music. I think this is great. Best I've heard them in a while, lots of new stuff.
nah man, this set just isn't any good.
Like, I'd ask for my money back not good.
They aint got clue about original house music its a different generation masters at work if you know you know ❤❤
I think it's more the SA crowd mostly can only connect with SA house
I wish I was as young as you. Blessing
Gotta love "Little Louie" and the "Dope" 😊😊😊
True Masters. Their mixing is unmatched.
@27:30 🔥🔥🔥
@30:15 🎆🎆🎆
BadBoyBill.
Over 5mins on their first track.
@@josephsmith2084 the message is in the music. perhaps it’s not for you. Out of curiosity are you a dancer?
My god, how is the crowd just standing there?? Was there a carbon monoxide leak or something?
😂 if you love music, love to dance. Don’t go boiler room. Strictly nodding dogs and insta streamers only
That’s how the crowd listens to the likes of MaW in SA, been like that for years. Head bopping, crowd cheering/clapping and some even crying a few will dance . We dance to other genres but this we appreciate differently
In SA it's amapiano or nothing!
My thoughts exactly! 💯
Disgusting … insult to this amazing pair .. honestly they don’t deserve a show like this
For me, it's practically impossible to stay still listening to a DJ set like this, and I'm at home... it must be some kind of social experiment. How did people manage to stay still on the dance floor? It's incredible.
Love the fact that MAW are busy again ❤
I'm not even in a club environment whatsoever. I'm in my little home office, sober as a rock on my 2nd coffee. But this is the sound of LIFE man. Ofcourse it's masterfully mixed, but I think I understand house music a little better after listening to this set. Thank you! 🙏
🫡
Maybe I'm old-skool, but this seems a lot like a listening/watch party. I would've completely lost my mind out there on the dance floor. Oh, well; times have changed.
Love Louie Vega ! I was privileged to see you face to face back in the early 2000s in Jhb. I see all the younger djs came to watch your set and take notes as always 😅
Absolute wrapping up of a generation we will never forget. And they still got it. A sound like no other
Some folks here are saying the MAW are off with this mix. My thing is, if I am buying a ticket to an event I will do my research. If it is not something I would listen to, I won't go. I feel sorry for the folks that missed out getting a ticket so these folks could stand around and look "cool". Also, if I paid that money and they are playing something I am not in love with, I am going to make the best of it. I will dance anyway. You can't be mad while dancing. The two just don't go together.
Real DJs.....Real House Music.
Amen
Really sucked
These two artists are incredibly gifted, wasted on this crowd!
Absolutely, hands down wasted. But the rest of us are jamming.
Big up MAW...
Wooooohooooooo…! The „Masters“ did it again!. This is unbelievable. Couldn’t sit/stand/lie still for an hour and still bouncing! Love it! Thank you @MastersAtWork for this peace of art. 😍
Louie vega is a mindset and a lifestyle🙏🏼
What does this even mean?
Maybe because he's the only one dancing to that trash music he's playing
@@broad405 clearly you don’t fit either of them So… move around bruh.
@@williamblackett 😂😂😂😂
South Africa ,,,Johannesburg ✌️🌴wkd vibes,, NYC legends in the house! 🔥🔥🎶
went to see them in NYC .best show ever
Only
59 mins of these KINGS OF KINGS @boiler music
Still rocking the phone as a headphone I see. True early pioneers at work. Love to see it.
CAN'T WEAR HEADPHONES WHEN YOU DON'T TAKE YOU HAT OFF IN PUBLIC.
didn't mean the all caps.
it is called a lollipop, very hard to maintain as a headphone.
It's a showerhead. LLV don't need headphones.
Feel the heartbeat of experience pulsing through this sound!
it is very weird to hear this quality of house music and see nobody dancing
Hey Siri: why is nobody dancing?
Siri: Who cares? I see you dancing
A lot of Boiler Room crowds seem to be people who just want to be seen there.
Many commenters here want to be heard, ain't it.
@@deepbreather I like when people like you don't get it.
Facts
whoops
nobody dance!!!! its a shame!
2k’s never heard of Masters at Work. That is the era for compilations in South Africa. Louie Vega shaped SA music alone.
I’ve seen these guys in San Francisco bunch of times. 🎉truly legendary. This is a great set in South Africa
Very impressive live set by the MAW. You guys really nailed this mix from start to finish.
One new thing I’ve noticed over the years: there is almost *no DJ booth anymore in a lot of these venues. Crowd is RIGHT there, right next to the DJs.
it's cool in some ways but I prefer the crowd to be engaged with the music and the dancefloor itself rather than all facing a performer. That, and the popularity contest of 'i get to be up there with the DJs' which i've never been a fan of.
I think SA are used to amapiano heads. I think maw gave them a house educational
I was going to ask when's the next time boiler room is going to have a house DJ. I wish they would bring more house DJs back to their events. That's the main reason I subscribed.
And techno.
The amount of absolute garbage afrobeat and reggaeton has killed it.
Amapiano is the superior genre
@@deanhaynes3136 I don't have a problem with afrobeats but I barely hear that. They've just been over polluting their channel with techno and other genres I absolutely care nothing about. I won't say it's trash because everyone has their own music taste but it's something I don't care for.
I mean the boileroom is in Jozi, damn near the birthplace of amapiano, so it’s expected when you watch Joburg sets that you’ll hear amapiano
@@deanhaynes3136superior genre to what?
If you go look at other Boiler Room vids at this same Johannesburg venue the crowd don't dance much, they are vibing but are mostly spectators...it almost seems as if nowadays the Afro house / Amapiano scene most of the dancing is by the Dj's themselves, some with lavish dancers and a whole production behind them at times. Bigups MAW..thank you for another amazing set.
I'm from scotland and I've seen masters at work in glasgow and I seen them at a weekender in England, I love hardcore/jungle/dnb/techno of its good its good
They have amazing feel MAW.
Not many djs have that in any genre. The music is deep.
those 2 are legend!!
Past their prime,, playing this flute music trash,,, legends reads the crowd,, and finds what the crowd dances and responds to,,,
@@broad405show em how to do it wheres your upload?
How the broad spectrum that music really is, them Masters bring it back into this thing called House.
Much needed
Grace Jones is a classic to start of with 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Masters still at work❣️
Saw Louie in Dallas & danced the whole time
Saw him in NYC and same, drenched from head to toe 😁😁
You probably was the only one dancing there 😂😂😂
@broad405 Actually no! I met a couple great dancers. It was a vibeee
grace jones classic NYC acapella of Slave to the rhythm.. Jovonn used to play that everytime.. then intro by MR V .. classic MAW intro ..
Its how many years of MAW now...and they are still untouchable on the decks.
Something special when they play together.
Wish this was longer.
How special is it, if no one's dancing or feeling the vibe 🤦💁
@broad405 I think some young people confuse dancing with jumping up and down and screaming.. MAW take you on a journey, they used to play 8 or 9 hours at a time.
I just watched every episode from this boiler room and it's like this for every dj pretty much.
In America for example for a long time they didn't even face the dj...people appreciate music differently.
MAW are incomparable in house music.
I get it though...15 years olds who have never been to a club prefer James Hype.
There isn't a genre of dance really that these 2 haven't inspired.
@broad405 I was having this convo with my 19 year old cousin who plays out these days... I don't want to hear djs playing a drop every 5 minutes.
It's terrible, it's lazy and it leads to no warm up.
Hour each, same set in the same order, its more like a routine than djing.
baby masters at work are LEGENDARY. IYKYK
This is so technical ...accurate....and rythmatic ...
Yo! Bilal - Sometimes is *goated* but that mix??? Crazy! ♥️♥️♥️🤙🏻
From Kerri Chandler - Rain into Bilal - Sometimes!
The selection is 😙👌🏻
11:00 rejoice ❤
Kenny Dope’s voice is so magical and elegant ❤
Where you hearing Kenny’s voice?
Two of the best to ever do it!!
Set only started picking up after 30 mins, when they started going soulful… We love House music in SA. They just had a mostly young crowd at this BR
Love Masters at Work!, let's go!
First time I've seen no one dancing...lol Im sure if I was there I be getting my groove on❤❤❤
So true
Love how the crowd is always slayed in the comments 😂
Ahhhhh they play like legends!!
Such a boss vibe!!! I love this jam❤
This is a true master class if you did not pay attention its your problem 💥💥💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Now, this is what is called a fuxxxing intro! 🤜🤜🤜
Right. that intro was ILL!!
I think a lot of people were expecting it to be hip-hop.
But Louie Vega was smiling, so that was good.
from 34:30 is wild, 3 songs in a couple minutes perfect phrasing, perfectly mixed. OGs
No idea what the vocal is...but it sounds great
Thought its Msaki
@manqobangidi6876 whatever it is.. I've just discovered Msaki anyway Amazing.... thank you
I come back for the track id😅
Trck is called mercy of time msaki /vega due for release
These guys are beasts! Smoking baby!!!!!!
Another Dope bomb ..is landing from the Masters at work. Keep House Music strong. Yeah..
I would have been loosing my mind dancing
Facts
33:43 is this Msaki here 😍her voice is always so smooth and velvety
Million dollar question, wish I knew cause I need it!!
Amazing!!! Anytime MAW is present, it's always a masterpiece. Thank you Kenny and Louie for sharing your master talent, skills and artistry in mixing! You've inspired many of us for so many years since NY in the 80s! Shout out to Todd Terry as well!!
Give the Guys some Space Man 🤠👍
Agreed
I was thinking the same thing.The fans are just happy to be in the presence of house music giants!
Top dj in the. Worlds 😮❤
Two days ago I watched them at the closing of the Defective Festival Croatia. That was out of space......

Good luck to the "track ID's comment" guy! :D
Legendary producers and best DJ´s in the world !!!
The Dons, 2 of the greatest to ever do it.
facts!
If I was there with MAW in the house, I'd be dancing and moving like it was my last, because it's house and the DJ's are legends! Though in this show, people should be putting their phones away and just freakin' move it!
I hear a bit of Pat Metheny at 31:00.
This is Insane! The bar is higher than ever!
that's insane, hard stuff to do, mixing at the same time, such a symbiosis at once, first time i've seen something like that, sliiiiiiick
Some of my idols 🥰
Did the crowd turn up to see someone else? How can they STAND still to these vibes - mad! 😂
Love that James Brown SuperBad rework!
I got Soul and I’m also SuperBad🕺🏽
Not to mention Basement Boys Alright mixed in right after. Like butter, baby.
Masterclass! 🕺💃🕺💃
This is serious JACK! Im at my computer and I cant sit still.
Maybe you should have been at the venue and got the crowd started because ain't no one dancing in there except the DJs 🤦🤦🤦🤦
21:00 mins... people, tell me what this remix of "thank you" is. Absolute NUMBER!
The distribution was unreal!)

Ja das sind die wahren House - Meister 👍und spielen immer geilen zeitlosen House vom feinstem 😁, schade das India nicht mehr mit neuen House mit ihrer unverwechselbaren Stimme dabei ist, ich konnte sie live erleben in Köln in der Diskothek NEUSCHWANSTEIN in den 90iger Jahren 😎👍😍♥️
