Yeah. Usually I only hear this level from grey-haired musicians. Young men have skill but the arrangement of this is so ... they are not playing from recently learned theory knowledge but playing from what an old soul wants to feel. A different approach (not that they don't work with theory like everyone else as well :P )
I hear early classical piano training and if you listen to all different cultural music in compound time signatures like 7/4 12/8 you get these kind of creative ideas! Cool.
Oh man. Protest (22:21) blows me away. There's something so emotive about it. It's got so much frustration and hope bundled together, glued with anger and determination. It's like Rage Against the Machine, but in a version that even your grandmother might deem pleasing to listen to... and I definitely mean that as a compliment! Amazing musicians. You go, GoGo Penguin. Go do more of this.
As a musician I aspire to being this swept away, so that people can ride along with me. This is magic. These guys take you galaxy hopping. It is almost an insult to stop at how technically good they are cause they go soul deep.
This has very quickly become my go-to for background music. Sooooo good! Until I suddenly realise I've been watching the video too and neglecting whatever else I'm supposed to be doing.
I just saw them live, first time ever, here in Canada, with their new drummer. They're a different band...off course. They appear to be exploring more electronic sounds with the drummer banging away with very little subtlety, constantly filling the space, sounding more like a rock drummer, heavy on the bass drum...almost a constant competition to play the loudest. The sad thing is that the musicians don't seem to be aware of this. I am heartbroken that Rob Turner has left Go Go. There was no ego involved. Just superb technique wrapped in the delicate way that he felt every second of the music. Where's the organic connection between Go Go that created a seamless flow of magic with every note? I'll keep listening to the early concerts pre: Jon Scott ... loving every moment.
@@susanbracher1489 Damn, I was at Montreal Jazz Fest in 2018 but didn't know about them at the time; wish had gotten to see with him. Going to have to look up what he's doing now
first piano notes played, people calm down and shut up 1 time, obviously they waited for the master on the keyboard what an amazing group, so great to see them live, if you can one day, don't blink twice, just go !!!
@@justpettet3506 ReallY? Well apart from ridiculous exageration ad the crowds anticipation of seeing a great band live what can I say except you are a complete dick! As for the sick comments about nationality and incidious conditions my poit is proven. Dont know what yor nationality is but you are a fucking disgrace.
Yeah your right, excellent musicians, first time hearing this last night so like taking a new breath and outlook on life & music. Top stuff. Though if you haven't heard it already. Check out the video of Snarky Puppy "lingus" (we like it here). Wicked awesome talent too.
Snarky Puppy comes into the suggested videos after this, and i have found their music quite cheesy and too scripted comparing to Gogo Penguins...maybe i should try getting more into it...
I thought the same thing too when I watched them last year, they do have quite a bit of pop element to them but I gave them another go. This time I was more blown away by their talent than sound. Watch the whole and video found I liked their blend of genre and it's really the keyboardist (Cory Henry, a guest star, I think, and child prodigy) that blows it out of the water. I don't know much about music theory but it sounds like he plays two different time signatures at the same time, right vs left hand.
For the past two weeks, this is my favourite band, my favourite youtube video. I love how their theme melody is being twisted, spinned, stretched and compressed by this or that instrument, but the magic is that in spite their juggling with music they always catch the melody back in their initial form, more beautiful and shining as ever before. I'm not a jazz fan, but this is just reaching my heart and make my soul to sing and body to dance. Bravo to you guys, I will buy your music gladly and thank you again!
I would really love for them to come in Montreal,Canada. Been listening to them since their first album and still hoping to see them live. Thanks for your music penguins, it makes my everyday life so enjoyable.
Dans le même genre, Immortal Onion est aussi intéressant. Sinon, le trio de Gauthier Toux, de Marcin Wasilewski, le BFP, Hard Swing Mango, le trio de Leila Martial, le quartet de la harpiste Julie Campiche (superbe concert au centre culturel suisse il y a 2 ans) et celui du saxophoniste Oded Tzur ... et plein d’autres 😊 Le jazz actuel est un véritable régal !
These guys rock! Just assumed they were at least using SOME loops, samples, or triggered clips the first time I heard them. Then I caught a video of them playing live...and I was simply blown away...
Seen them live yesterday and they had a whole different repertoire. Much stronger and epic and the build-up oh god! The bassist is incredible. His ability to solo for 4/5 non-stop playing it as a guitar is pretty much! The drummer is also really good. Epic night!!
Saw you live in Darmstadt, Germany yesterday. One of the best gigs I have ever seen. So much dynamics and power in the music and the fine details have their place too. Great trio!
These guys are incredible!!! I would never have imagined before hearing it, how one could perform live especially the first track (All Res) so faithfully and dynamically. Excellent!!!
Rob Turner is a God of drums.
Favorite drummer. I hope he comes back to the band
You hit the nail on the head, m8! Shear genius.
That drummers stick control is killin me.... great playing
Legend has it, the audience is still clapping...
LMAO :)
Thanks for making me laugh :)
Lol, I was there. I can confirm, I'm still clapping!
Nothing better than discovering something amazing.
Aron Johnston see them live if you get a chance, mind blown. Seeing them again
creating something amazing ;)
Feeling this right now.
00:35 All Res
06:45 Unspeakable World
11:45 Branches Break
16:42 Initiate
22:22 Protest
Thanks
Thank you kind human
not all heroes wear capes
Thanks for the listing man - ALWAYS useful! :)
ilCapotesta Thanks for posting. This really should have been included in the publisher's comments, or at least have your post 'pinned' to the front.
I just wanna thank everything that happened in my life that lead to me finding this music.
Dude, that makes me smile sooooo much. I shared this vid with like 20ppl who were like 'mehh'..... I'm with you!
The songs honestly sound better than the studio version here, it's mind boggling
They're such an immensely professional and creative band, a rare breed of penguin indeed
These guys play like they've been at it for 40 yrs. Total professionals.

You go, GoGo Penguin. Go do more of this.
@vonoom I've just thought about RATM too!
Yeah. Such a great band. Go go, GoGo Penguin(s)! ;)
You hear that Korn Freak on a Leash reference in that melody?!
MONSTA bass line.
i came here for this comment, man, soooooo goood, a true masterpiece that rythm
absolute gem thats a masterpiece

You mean your GoGo-to for background music ;)
@@InterpretingAesthetic ha ha ha me too!
I totally get that comment!
Foreground music, for me.
That's what I do at school
The textures these 3 create are insane. Robs percussion has the ability to drive, lift and sprinkle magic into the music, as a whole.
Heavenly
They really do sound just as good live as they do on record. Increadible band!
This band is this good all of the time. If you have the chance to see them live, don't miss it.
So true !
Saw them 3 times and ... WoW !
Not anymore. Theyost Rob Turner. The new drummer doesn't understand subtlety or the music.
If these guys played a concert with The Bad Plus, the world would implode.
I read Penguin, I click.
I hear amazing music, I stay.
I'm a simple man.
I love the way the drummer and pianist smile at each other at 11:07 knowing what they just did sounded amazing
Drummer lays it down with the breakbeat there! Great touch. Love it.
The tone on that bass is perfection!
I´m not into jazz music really, but this math-jazz-pop fusion is just brilliant!
doubting that anyone would see this, but keep going. you're doing great ヅ
That drummer is out of this world! So rad! Jesus
Live in Oslo november 9th❤️
So nice to have some *proper* clarity on the double bass!
I really love the entire band, but the drummers control and touch is simply amazing. Hope they come to the Netherlands soon!
Rick Derksen yess the drummer i guess listens to a lot of electronic and drum and bass music
He plays a major role in “modernizing” the band’s music concept
They have been to the Netherlands! I think a year or 2 back, I saw them!

this band is really another whole level, but holy shit, playing unspeakable world LIVE?? HOW DARE YOU TO BE SO TALENTED??
this drummer is a genius!
...and the pianist & bass-man!!! Three geniuses, adding to something totally epic..
check this one th-cam.com/video/1g826StJhLk/w-d-xo.html
@@luciok that was proper, thanks for the link
Amazing!!!
Sounds Like Esbjorn Svensson Trio!! Love it so much!!
The clapping on top of the spoken introduction is hilarious!
im from chile beatifull for me its jazz , soul and heart :)
There is, in fact, still real music being made. Always glad to rediscover that. Excellent work, guys - your records just went on my next-buy list.
Spectacular and mesmerising! Everybody needs a little Penguin in their life!
And better, a band of 3 Penguins 😊
only weird thing is people clapping 10 minutes straight at the beginning of the video
first piano notes played, people calm down and shut up 1 time, obviously they waited for the master on the keyboard
what an amazing group, so great to see them live, if you can one day, don't blink twice, just go !!!
right over the announcer was hilarious hahaa this is why brits need so many rules they are all autistic

jesus christ, relax, it was 40 seconds...
no need to get emotional over a stupid comment ment to be funny.
Reminded me of top of the pops all that clapping (showing my age there)
These jazz compositions are music of inner alarm and a signal about the infernal essence of the reality around us.
This is the definition of musical creativity.
do, de da, do da, do de da, do da, do da de do da...
😆
That bass sounds gorgeous
Every song was so incredibly unique, open and beautiful, unlike anything I've heard. Thank you!
what the hell do you listen to after this?!

Some suggestions: Bad Plus, Avishai Cohen Trio, Mammal Hands, Esbjorn Svensson Trio, Tigran Hamasyan, Kneebody
Great, gonna check those out too. Thanks!
I love the bass playing. He is really good.
I am sooo happy I have found this....wish I could listen to you live somewhere..mind-and-body-blowing...you are so good..
Снос башки! Профи!
How the hell can you dislike this ?!
Gogo pinguin what a wonderfull band
this sound goes really deep, i'm getting so proud on these guys while listening, as if i would have made them myself. the songs and the guys.
LoveandGratitude
That snare sounds sooo good
TH-cam recommended this. I recommend TH-cam - good work. Good band these..
The drummer is phenomenal. Listen to Smarra if you like his playing
Love them. Penguin stil will go go far far away!
Badass performance! Come to Brazil, now!
takes me back to The Reign of Kindo a bit, havent listened to those guys in a good fe wyears
baammm, what an ending of the last song. Absolute joy listening!!
Great band making great music.
Hier soir àParis, à La Cigale, extraordinaire concert avec une ambiance de feu. Ils sont tous les trois fabuleux... MERCI, MERCI, MERCI...
every day i'm listen this amazing music
Exceptional music. A thank you to this trio!!!

Back again after 3 years. This is very good
I'm a jazz piano player and I really like this!!
Absolutely and utterly joyous.
I'm listening to these tunes again and again.
Compared to most music nowadays,I 100% support this music over all other genre
I would really love for them to come in Montreal,Canada. Been listening to them since their first album and still hoping to see them live. Thanks for your music penguins, it makes my everyday life so enjoyable.
They came twice! I've missed them both times :( They usually come for the Jazz Festival!
Lol....hope they come back next year
Dude! High five for your music and cartoon taste)
+Никита Барзашвили thx man
Saw them 4 days ago in Istanbul, they are great in studio but AMAZING live.
Goodness, damn all mighty!! You do more than just rock!! You rule!
Un des groupes de jazz les plus intéressants du moment...
Dans le même genre, Immortal Onion est aussi intéressant. Sinon, le trio de Gauthier Toux, de Marcin Wasilewski, le BFP, Hard Swing Mango, le trio de Leila Martial, le quartet de la harpiste Julie Campiche (superbe concert au centre culturel suisse il y a 2 ans) et celui du saxophoniste Oded Tzur ... et plein d’autres 😊
Le jazz actuel est un véritable régal !
Caraaaaaalho maluco... isso é uma das melhores coisas que ouvi nos últimos anos
idem!
It's been a long a long time since I heard anything that made me go WTAF in such a good way!
JazzFM 91.9, thank you for introducing me to GoGo penguin.
Came here because Tidal suggested y'all. Got damn! "Protest Live"!!!! I live for that fucking song!
Well, it's time to buy better headphones, this music deserve it..
Buy good speakers then
And better not to listen to on TH-cam in that case
These guys rock! Just assumed they were at least using SOME loops, samples, or triggered clips the first time I heard them. Then I caught a video of them playing live...and I was simply blown away...
this band's name makes me smile every time
first time i listening to these guys. I found magic!!
Which one is the better musician? How??!!
This is so much E.s.t! And i love it!
These guys are incredible, one of my all time favourite gigs in Dublin. Going again, can't wait. If you've neg voted, you've got no soul
i stumbled upon greatness. Amazing musicianship. Need more of this in the world! Bravo!!!!
Seen them live yesterday and they had a whole different repertoire. Much stronger and epic and the build-up oh god! The bassist is incredible. His ability to solo for 4/5 non-stop playing it as a guitar is pretty much! The drummer is also really good. Epic night!!
Very very good - and groovy! ❤💛🖤
Initiate, @17´30˝ unique distorsion on hi-hats, three sticks and tin patch... Awesome music!
Oh those ghost notes ..oh my
Thank you👍☘️
Fantastic musicians, brilliant songs.
Really nice discovery, found the new remix album and now came for the original band, aweeome
Reminds me A LOT of the earlier Cinematic Orchestra albums. And that's a compliment! :)
Que dire... A ce niveau... Exceptionnels ! Unique ! MAGISTRALE !!! 😮
Saw you live in Darmstadt, Germany yesterday. One of the best gigs I have ever seen. So much dynamics and power in the music and the fine details have their place too. Great trio!
Enorme ce groupe!!! Quel talent... Hello from France 👋👋👋👋
Wow...how come I'm only discovering this now..
so glad i discovered these guys.
come i grandi trii del passato. Wanderful jazz
Goosebumps from this trio!
It is so nice too see the bassist being the bandleader!
Wow...Oh Wow, what a beautiful statement of music, every phrase pulled me in. A real pleasure to hear, thank you gentlemen.
These guys are incredible!!! I would never have imagined before hearing it, how one could perform live especially the first track (All Res) so faithfully and dynamically. Excellent!!!
Non vi conoscevo...ma siete fantastici!!!! Bravi
