Old internet is nostalgic, but also, I think internet back then was more romantic. Something that truly didn't peddle anything but its own citizens, their experiences and inner monologues. It wasn't trying to keep us on it, or find the next most optimal video. I feel like modern internet has the lowest lows, and the old had the highest highs.
I’d like to think a man working in a warehouse in India was tasked with this and ended up crying his heart out thinking about the cultural death of a city he’s never been to was moved enough to hit “no copyright violation found” a decade ago.
"This video was created in a spontaneous randomly perfect collaboration with my ex flatmate and secret lover Eleonora while we were wasting too much time on the internet, in our living room in Shoreditch, London." U my frd are part of the internet history...
This man was ahead of his time. I would expect a musical miracle like this to come to light in late 2016, but to unearth something so magical in 2011... I... am... unbelievably impressed
check out dj shadow. dude was doing this with records in the 90s. people probably did it before him too. "endtroducing" and "product placement" are two really awesome albums.
"This video was created in a spontaneous randomly perfect collaboration with my ex flatmate and secret lover Eleonora while we were wasting too much time on the internet, in our living room in Shoreditch, London." Both songs sound like the soundtrack and this paragraph (is in the description) seems the main plot of a romantic movie. I'd watch it.
@@rafisetiaji8469 it sucks for finding new content. instead of clicking on a video and seeing a list of "Related" videos we now have algorithm based "Recommended" videos, usually full of a bunch of fuckin videos the user has already seen! fuck "Up Next".
I remember hearing this waaaaay back when I was in my lowest, really deep into depression, barely eating... I don't even know how the hell I survived... Having this recommended to me once again makes me see how much I improved since them and gives me a warm feeling. Thank you very much.
Hello old friend. I'm back after some time away. It feels like my heart woke up a little bit today and the fleeting dream it was able to grasp was this song. I'm back for a for a visit, for a listen once again. You look great for how long it's been. We're both older now but the magic is still here. Well done.
GamingWithGingerale Hm, it's not that easy I'm afraid. In theory: The scale he's improvising in has 7-9 notes and let's say he's playing a range of two to octaves, that's around 16 notes. That means that for any sequence of four notes there are 16⁴ = 2¹⁶ ≈ 65000 possibilities. So if he's playing 50 four note phrases in this video, there would be a chance of around 0.1% that he will play one specific phrase. In practice that's of course bullshit, the probability is waaay higher (maybe ~50%) because he's not improvising completely random. Rather there are maybe 4 possible following notes to play after one note, that would make sense. And also this phrase that they are singing/playing is quite common and natural to use for this scale/genre.
If any ones wondering why this works, it’s because the two pieces of music are the same tempo (speed) and are in the same key. Miles Davis style also just happens to fit the piece very well since he would leave space in his solos.
@@Zack_Taylor if both songs are the same tempo then both videos are following the beat of the drum from LCD, since you can't really hear the one in Miles'
I used this duet as my alarm for quite awhile a few years ago. Nothing like waking up to this kind of melancholy. Listening to this always reminds me of wanting to stay in bed.
Whoever heard the potential here and found the timing is a damn savant. Miles' pick-up to the drums at the beginning is so perfect, and it's one continuous segment from then to 2:55 when Miles perfectly responds to LCD's "OHH!". Incredible that Miles is playing variations of the vocal melody throughout, but even moreso the timing! As if these two were made for each other through time
I found this video when I was 14 or something like that. 8 years later and I still come back to this video every once in a while and am always impressed and swoon by it, this is a true treasure.
For me, this video and the year it was published in represents the shift of TH-cam from small-scale independant content creation to corporate high production value content. This is not a good or bad thing. It simply is.
Still one of my favourite videos on TH-cam. I remember the hate you would get on this from assholes... "why do you need a Mac for this..." "this is so simple to do..." etc.... To have an ear to recognize these play together is a beautiful talent and requires an ear! Thank you for making this, makes the song 100x better.
This is insane dude. There’s a lot of nostalgia coming from this video too. A time where LCD soundsystem was a household name and people were still marveling over the iPad.
This video is super nostalgic to me. I remember playing this all the time six years ago. And now that I actually live in New York City this video hits harder than jt use to
There's this real old school and organic charm to pulling up the tab for the Miles Davis video as opposed to having both tabs ready to go when you hit record.
Y’know, I was wondering why every other version of this duet sounded weird to me, and I’ve finally figured it out: all of them have Miles come in like a beat and a half too early, which is probably how I would’ve ended up doing it if I’d tried. Kudos for dodging that bullet
Its 2am, and stress is keeping me from sleeping. I turn to TH-cam to keep my mind of things and it takes me here. Suddenly things aren't so bad anymore
Please whatever you do just please don't ever delete this
Lol I didn't even find my comment from a notification I just came back to this song after a couple months and stumbled across my comment

It's wild cause Miles' playing really elevates the song and works beautifully against the bassline. He even mirrors some of the vocal phrasing.

Over a decade later and I still absolutely love this collaboration
This is insane dude. There’s a lot of nostalgia coming from this video too. A time where LCD soundsystem was a household name and people were still marveling over the iPad.
Honestly one of the most genius and simple creations I've ever witnessed.
I actually cried I was so moved. WTF?
I always come back to this video when I listen to LCD Soundsystem.
A mashup before mashups, 5 stars always.
So the idea I’m getting is that TH-cam has recommended this to a few thousand people every year since 2014
Seeing the old TH-cam layout really makes me feel something
back when the related videos were actually related, and not 30% videos I already watched and 69%% trending/viral stuff I couldn't care less about.
And now the related videos are actually related again
Wow can't believe youtube GUI was so much defferent only a few years ago.

I wish somebody made a remaster of this, honestly, I cannot listen to the original anymore over this.
So does TH-cam just recommend this to a random selection of people every year
This is honestly my favorite version of the song. Can't tell you how many times I've listened to it over the years
