👴 Old Composer Reactions 🤘
One of the violinists in this video is a friend of mine. I have sent her the link and asked her to forward it to Louis and Genevieve, so they should see it. I met them both in London a few years ago (through my friend) and they are fantastic people. Great track and great reaction!
Someone said "it's very collegey" and i could not agree more and I mean that in the utmost highest regard. it's just pure unadulterated unfiltered talent that no studio or label could hope to recapture. it's the essence of musicality for music's sake. louis cole and genevieve artadi are national treasures and knower needs to be 1000x more popular.
I grew up in a small rural town where high school talent shows rivaled athletes for garnering popularity among the students. When I first saw/heard knower on youtube my first reaction was...omg this is like the best talent show ever.
The absolute joy Sam Wilkes shows when playing bass on, like, every video I've seen with him in it, never gets old. That man could be standing there playing one single note through the song and he'd still look like he's having the time of his life.
He's the embodiment of what a an old jazz bassist said to me a long time ago: you have to love every note you play.
Man knows how to feel music.
My conspiracy theory is that he's actually a golden retriever who was reincarnated as a bassist.
Take a look at Louis' song "My Buick" because that's exactly what he does in that hahaha.
"My Buick" amirite, mate?
Louis, the drummer, got nominated for an alternative jazz Grammy this year for his last solo album. He didn’t win but just getting the nom was pretty cool. I want this album to get nominated this year. The every track on this thing is amazing.
the album was released in 2023 and unfortunately didn't make the cut, unlike Louis' solo album (also, how much time does this fucking guy have in day?)
It was a very strongly fielded category, and I was super excited for him to get the nomination. Meshell Ndegeocello took the Grammy in that category. That's nothing to be discouraged over and I hope he knows that. At the rate he is going, he will get his someday!
Couldn't agree more!
On an album of absolute bangers - this is my favourite.
Knower never miss.😊❤❤
@@Aut0mati0n It's a bloody masterpiece
I think it was independently released so I doubt it would get a Grammy nom
Geebz, did you know that Clown Core play a few short clips of people reacting to their music videos in the middle of their live shows and there's a little clip of you in there? I saw them in Berlin and it ruled.
That's so cool!
That's actually how I found geebz!
id love to see that but i doubt there's footage
@naantjez there's actually a show that I saw recorded online, it might still be up. Sound quality isn't the best, but you'll get to see it if you wanna watch it.
That's awesome.
My favorite thing about Knower is that you can never get bored with a song.
Watching Geebz review Knower is one of the most joyful things on the internet
Your face when the strings hit, hahahaha! We love Knower.
Louis Cole & Genevieve, Jacob Mann & Sam Wilkes, Domi & JD Beck
The next generation of amazing talent
I love ClownCore and Knower so much, everyone around me think I'm a stoner. My GF says to stop to share this on FB, thinks I look stupid and unfatherly to share this. Man ppl don't know shit about music. These guys make me believe in music again, so inspired by them.
Absolutely and you can almost hear the same rhythmic feel of the drums as clown core haha. First thing I thought was "Oh that sounds like clowncore drums? Oh wait it's Knower duh" lol.
I wouldn't know these guys if it wasn't for your first reaction. It's one of my most cherished discoveries of the last decade. And this track is fire. Thank you, man! Awwright!
Sam Wilkes is a beast on bass guitar. He plays a lot with Scary Pockets (they're on TH-cam too).
When the strings hit ... OMG. Listen to the tension they build in.the second half of the piano solo. I bet Louis wrote every note of that. The man is a fuckin genius.
KNOWER just started popping up in my feed in the last week. I can't believe I haven't heard of them, they're INSANE!
check out their Weird Part of the Night - Louis Cole video.
I feel like the overarching story of the entire Knower fanbase is basically the continual process of music nerds showing it to other music nerds and being like, “You feel it too, right?!?”
The entire album is insanely good. The majority of all the parts for each song were recorded live and you are watching it happen. Dubbed or added parts are generally acknowledge by text (you'll see 'OVERDUB' text, for example) or, as in the case of this video with the string section, you see for a moment a PIP view of the string section playing the "second" part. This occurs at 2:53 of your video.
This gutsy, old-school, earthy approach pumps up my admiration for Louis and his cohorts to levels beyond comprehension or explanation.
It's just crazy. Immeasurable amounts of talent, and in so many fields.
DIY 4 EVR!
@@scottbrewer9676 Haha "Genevieve added a few oohs here, but who cares?"
THIS. IS. ART.
Never was aware of Knower previously, now I'm going to dive in. Love it!
I have heard Clowncore and loved that too! But this is just... WOW. Thank you for reacting to this! Excuse me, time to indulge in Knower!
Your reaction to this song is a dream come true for me - it’s my favorite song of 2023 and I just knew that you would love it!
Perfect reaction!
this song lives rent free in my head since i first heard it.. insnely good and catchy!
I discovered this band just a few days ago with this track. I don't know why I never heard of them before, but I can't stop listening to them since, what a treat!
Check out their solo-stuff too, both Louis Cole and Genevieve Artadi do amazing stuff outside Knower.
@@ontoverse I do! That's like a whole new musical world opened ^^ Thanks!
Louis Cole has always given me Frank Zappa vibes.
You know I never drew that conclusion but that's such a good description
Ultimate compliment
Oh shit! I don't know why I listen to stuff like this, because it makes me want to quit playing any instrument, yet it inspires me at the same time!
I cant believe clown core made this cool side project
Clown Core is a side project, Knower came first, btw
@@gregorypalamara6723 I was trying to be funny 😭 thanks tho
I thought the drums and keyboard sounded familiar.
@@gregorypalamara6723 Clown Core released their first album before Knower back in 2010
@@gregorypalamara6723 R/wooosh
Uh...what the...? How? I loved it, just mind blowing, it gets better and better as it goes along! Is it even replicable?
You've got to react to "I'm the President" by Knower. It's got such a crazy groove with a an orchestra in the house.
I never would’ve been exposed to this, thank you Geebz 🙏 Already bought tickets to their show, same day I heard this. This is nuts
I've been waiting for you to cover more KNOWER - I really hope you do more. Simply magic.
Every track on KNOWER FOREVER is unbelievable. Please!
I just went down the list of musicians in the strings and brass and googled every one. For a handful you need to add their instrument as a search term to get past some other famous person who shares their name, but it was well worth it. There are a lot of active musicians there with their own things going on.
I am glad to see a fellow deep diver.
57 y.o. ex funk drummer here and 4:03 was my reaction also🤣
Every section is just great, chorus is true beauty but that outro is heaven. Song is on a loop in my head for 2 weeks now. True excellence 💥
3:39 i did the same laugh the first time i heard the end of rai’s line
When I first heard that song, I loved it but I wasn't expecting this outro. It's so short but man this took me to a whole different level. Absolutely fantastic.
I love watching people spontaneously expressing joy and laughter at art that is so incredible it makes you lol. Makes you remind yourself that wonder exists in the world. That life is beautiful.❤
I like to imagine that the guy who was talking smack in the chat got blown away as the song progressed 😂
It's worth mentioning, and quite fucking insane, that Rai Thistlethwayte's piano solo is entirely ONE-HANDED
I'm buzzing that you've done this song.What beautiful music,pure class❤
SO SPLENDID
Such a sick, sick band. Never heard anything like them ever.
This was so joyful to watch your joy unfold
"Pizza" was one of my daughter's first favorite songs and remains so. We will absolutely krump out whenever it comes on my Spotify. She's been jamming to "Do Hot Girls Like Chords" lately too!
These guys will be the ones to compose the official soundtrack to the end of our world.
"That line was so long, it belongs at Disneyland"
I think my head just exploded. This was absolutely amazing!
People who haven't _really_ listened to Knower previously: **OMGHOTSAUCE**
Everyone else: Just Genevieve and Louis things.
So much beauty in their music. Beauty on beauty. 🌟
this was by far my favorite new song last year. Listened to it on repeat on end. At home, underway, during workouts or for sleep, didn't matter.
The whole album is fantastic
been lurking a lot of your twitch streams. one of my favorite places to lurk, i am learning composition. music theory too. I learned all my software and Kontakt and all that stuff already over the last 2 years. but i really need to be around more ppl like your community. it's great just even lurking and listening to you talk and reading some of the comments in chat about the music. Really enjoy Knower a lot too, been studying jazz chord progressions a lot lately.
I was just imagining you reacting to them the other day, what a nice surprise
Hey man, I haven't seen one of your videos in a bit, but I absolutely love your channel. Keep hanging on. What you give to the world is incredibly valuable. Thanks so much! Aloha!
Love this song. Since the video was released I’ve been thinking about you checking it out. Glad to see it!
I just discovered this song a few days ago and I was blown away by it. I’m a musician and I have been for about 28 years and this day I have not heard anything like that. At first, I didn’t know what I thought about the song so I had to listen to it a couple of more times before I can draw any sort of conclusion but this one is weird but cool at the same time.
This feels like some sort of musical perfection
Thanks for sharing this! Amazing stuff.
Watching you enjoy it at a level I probably can't made me enjoy it even more then I already did watching it.
This was incredible!! I need to hear more of their music 🖤
This was one of those songs where when I heard it in a tiktok clip, I had to stop everything and hunt for it. Absolutely addicting.
Man, it warmed my heart seeing your reaction to that first shot of the orchestra :) So great!
I had a rare moment of satori while listening to this for the first time, particularly about youth, and the ability of artists that exist during a certain part of history, and be so comfortably in it to become actual conduits of the zeitgeist.
And at the very same time, the god-tier, piano solo tied it together reminded me how every single one of these history shattering artists have been standing on the shoulders of others. What hits so strong about knower is how they do this effortlessly. Surprisingly new sound, but one that hits and makes you understand immediately, reflecting the present like a fucking beat writer during the 70s, and at the same time respectful and loving of the form that came before.
I can't say enough about Knower. Been following their work for many years now & I have never been dissapointed.
Petition for you to listen to the entire album
Thank you Geebz
Strings are just the most beautiful thing.
"that drummer is absolute magic." mmmhmmmm
Love watching this reaction almost as much as I love this song. Louis Cole should score the next Yorgos Lanthimos movie.
This was great. I really enjoyed the song and the reaction.
Hey Geebz, didn't notice you were back. ;) good to have you again
Phenomenal project this lot have going! Ridiculous talent. Great reaction! If I were Bill Hick's ashtray, this music leaves me full of juicy spliff dimps 🔥
As a keyboard player I've been listening to the music for more the 30 years.
I know thing or two about jazz, funk, soul and classical music.
There a lot of legendary musicians, whoes styles and technique are amazing.
And we all understand how much time and effort you have to invest in order to become someone.
But this guy and his piano solo started at 3:15 left me speechles. This is out of this world.
Bravo!!!
I'm back after a month and I have listened to this whole album "Knower Forever" and F!!!!! It's is amazing! So glad you reacted to this so I had a chance to hear this as I am now a huge fan.
I've only recently discovered KNOWER, bought the Forever album, and I'm absolutely over the moon about the entire thing...
It's mind-blowing.
I'm almost 60, and been a musician since I was 4. And I can't get my head around their approach to songwriting - the combination of catchiness and sheer complexity is staggering & hooks you instantly! 🙏🙏
KNOWER FOREVER 🤘
Discovered Louis and Genevieve a few months ago. I am 68, guitarist since I was 10. I drove from Ohio to Chicago to see them play May 1. Mostly youngsters there but I was sitting next to another 68 year old (bassist), and for the half hour before the show all we could do was to gush and try to outdo each other with our love and amazement and Louis and crew. It was truly pathetic and wonderful. These guys make us old musicians believe there's hope for music. And knowing there are so many others (Puppy, DOMi, Loops, etc.) helps slow down the feeling that the world is crumbling. Thank you, Louis, Genevieve, Same, and your network of geniuses.
Knower is the best new music I've heard in a *long* while. The kids have got this...
God tier indeed. Love it so much
crazy for sure! love it!
I hope I get to see KNOWER live, but i got tp see Louis Cole live and it BLEW MY MIND (he was an opening act to Jacob Collier) BEST.DAY.OF.MY.LIFE
Thank you for acknowledging this, one of my favourite tracks of Theirs 😊
Unbelievably wonderful masterpiece🎉🎶🖖
Poor Geebz nearly had his tootin' cap blown off!
outside of the box is good. I like it. I dare someone to label it
Meshuggah in a dreamy pop key
Key of Geebz gives the music a very worthy feedback and speaks the wisest words I've heard in times. I felt it all 💯🦴🙏🏼✌🏼
Amazing song. Love it!!
TTNG is crazy good and underrated
Rai T: I’m gonna do a 1 hand solo
Others: I mean you can def use both h..
Rai T: ONE HAND!
Hell yes, Geebz
This was my first video of Knower's. Fell in love instantly
Most exciting and important people in music right now
They always blow me away, just sick
i had basically same reaction when i first saw this, straight pure master musicianship and emotion
Rippin! Reminds me of Discipline era King Crimson. I used to get to play with a bass player that this guy reminds me of. He loved playing really percussive stuff like this and working in jacked up jazz times/modes.
Yes! Definitely got Frou Frou vibes from this. The phase locking is ridiculously great too!
That was wild, Jesus those drums
Watching you hear Knower and Louis Cole for the first time is SO satisfying because we have similar physical responses. I’m very often making the biggest reaction to music and I feel very seen here 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Im hooked
This is a thing of beauty.
Just perfect.
Love a tonne of their stuff including Clown Core.
You might be the only guy who made a react to a video by these guys who gets them and really appreciates their level of musicianship.
I saw another vid of them where they had a choir in the driveway in front of the garage : ) The who property was taken over by music! Found it... "Real Nice Moment"
I was looking for a review from you and this is how I had to search to get a return to come up... "old man Tool music review"...damn
Yea, for the last year the algo no like me no mo :)
KNOWER is amazing. I recommend the track "Do Hot Girls Like Chords"
Imagine listening to this on.a acid trip on repeat tillnthe trip stopped... After about an hour id rip my ears off.
Turned me on to new music, ty.
Finally KNOWER!
