„It is always better to look cool than to sound cool“ says Greg. But the truth is, he sounds cool because he really connects his performance to the instrument. Greg is truly a great artist. Together with the fabulous Pocket Queen, a fabulous musical firework! Thank you.
Greg is such a legend. He’s had his hands in some of the best pop recordings of the last 50 years. From Michael Jackson, to Bruno Mars , the dude has done it all.
@@wcs1870 Yes, along with all the other people who were involved in the production of it. I mean TOTO basically recorded the album. That alone tells you enough. Then there were some exceptional masters like Paulinho da Costa and Eddie van Halen and even from the recording side: Bruce Swedien as the Audio Engineer and Quincy Jones as the Producer. And don't forget people like David Foster, who played keyboard on the record as well. All of them made Thriller to what it is today.
Songs in the Key of Greg and Pocket Queen: (Though I can't remember some of these) 2:39 Miles Davis - So What 3:39 Busta Rhymes - Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See 4:24 The Beatles - Come Together 5:33 - ? 7:19 Devo - Whip It 8:10 Freddie Hubbard - Red Clay 8:50 -? 10:19 The Temptations - My Girl 11:19 Sly & The Family Stone - Thank You 12:29 - ? 13:20 - MC Hammer - Can't Touch This 14:25 The Beatles - I Saw Her Standing There 15:01 Jaco Pastorius - Tracy / SWV - Rain 16:44 Parliament - Flash Light 18:05 Paul Simon - 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover 20:05 - ?
Honestly, after seeing SO MANY pitches from so many plugin makers.. this really DOES feel a ton better about these libraries. It makes them feel more like realm music was can play on. WIN!!
It never feels like Spectrasonics is trying to push a product. They just make the best instruments they can and let artists express themselves with it while putting a smile on your face. And the sales just fall in line because it's obvious in the way they operate and in playing the instruments that they really care about what they do.
Greg is a legend. Humbled to hv met his buddies that made up the Bad Tour band when M.J. was living back in '87, Rory & Ricky at the Akai plant in Ft.Worth. Nice sounds Spectrasonics!
I only learned that "Rain" by SWV was from a sample a few months back when TH-cam decided I needed to watch Thundercat's top basslines video. I've known about Jaco for decades but I had never heard this until then. I love discovering "new" old music!
The truth is when you see Greg on a Spectrasonics video, you leave with smiles, amazement and happiness. Pocket Queen definitely brought the vibe and the immaculate pocket. Lovely stuff Eric and the team!
Per Quincy Jones, Greg Phillinganes wrote the C section for Jackson’s hit “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough.” The fact Greg's the world's best pop keyboardist is obvious on this video! What a player!
@@gravy2973 he did pay him for thr arrangement. Greg wanted co-writer credit. The c cection is less than.10% of the song. That's not co-writing. Simple as that. Q keeps sh*tting on MJ for whatever reason. When everybody know the machiavellian was him. All of MJs engineers say how Q knows not the meaning of "humble".
His original video with Keyscape demo was the reason why I bought it....then I thought, why not just get Trilian too. Spectrasonics is just too addicting.
Holy Christ!!! I knew that Greg was good but The Pocket Queen!!½!!! Damn she got chops and attention! Seeing here just looking at Greg and assessing the beat is just awesome! Truely awesome video!
How is this man not the most famous host on the planet is absolutely beyond me. Put this man in charge of Sunday Night Live or sumthing and the world is HEALED!!! Hallelujah!!
This video is just a couple hours too short! Seriously though, these demos are one of my favourite things to watch, they always bring my mood up. Still occasionally rewatch some of the older demos, like the ones with Shaun Martin (still hoping maybe there's a bit more in store from his session left maybe?), and I'm sure this will be one of those that I will rewatch every once in awhile.
I just LOVE Greg Phillinganes! What a great player, teacher, presenter, and personality. Never a dull moment. What a talent...he is a National Treasure!!!
Every new product demo should be like this. Especially in these times, a good laugh (and there were many here) is always welcome, and is even therapeutic!
Late to the party here but wow the jaco fretless got me too. That tone just pierces to the bone and the drummer NAILED it! Anyone know what song that is? I assume its a Jaco tune
@@therealizeproject hey bro I’m sure they’d chords have been used in the past forsure ! But I’ve heard them recently, and actually only on this instrumental, it’s called Sturdy-Take45 ! It’s been around recently on social media with dances
You're a smart man Erick, putting that man to showcase the product ... he's so bloody awesome... can't wait to se what the other guys do, but the bar has been set high, trillian always sounds amazing.
How to get a musician to watch a 20 minute video of keyboard sounds/VSTI/Samples, Greg Phillinganes! Spectrasonics is the best, been on this train since Trilogy, Atmosphere and the original Stylus!
Listening to this almost every day (like the other hugely popular Phillingranes/Spectrasonics collab), too much good stuff here. But, that " 50 ways to leave your lover ", that got me, especially the verse, with the subtlety of the drumming, just DIVINE! And how the hell is Pocket Queen so familiar with so many of these tunes given her age? That's a sight to behold!
Love u guys!!!🤩 My favourite moment: the "Jaco Fretless"!🥰 LOOK AT THEIR FACES!!!😃 And - finally - the "Fretless Entropy" made me cry - for a sweat, short moment.😊
WOW! That was a top notch jam session with the great Greg Phillinganes! And Pocket Queen - just wow! Cool drummer! THanks Eric for an updated version of the classic Trilian library! Yay! :)
Greg is so cool, Great player with perfect pitch. I'll never forget playing one of my difficult originals at Namm, one year, he stopped by listened to what I was playing. I sopped when I saw him and he came up, sat down & played everything I played like he wrote it himself. Great guy. I had a great time getting to know this brotha.
0:05 no combination of words in any language nor any form of communication would accurately express HOW MUCH I MISS YOU Also, I refuse to believe that the pocket queen is 30
Greg Phiiliganes is amazing and have always admired all that he is done. The Pocket Queen is a superb drummer and I love her facial expressions, her smile and laugh.
Now this is how you do a product video!!! Such incredible musicians, fulling vibing on a high! Also they need to collab with each other if they haven't, great duo!
Fretless Entropy is just..... well, what can I say? I am speechless. The magic of Greg Phillinganes, the touch of The Pocket Queen and the genius of Eric Persing. All in one!
Absolutely fantastic. The epitome of what a demo should be. Lost count of how many times I’ve watched this. Greg & Taylor were masterful and fun to watch. As others have said they should be brought back and of course Trilian is simply superb
Somewhere there’s a kid out here watching this whose gonna be inspired by the two generations of talent above them and be a part of their own third generation of talent, the first spectrasonics video with gregg was a gift but this one gave me an even bigger smile that did not shift for the whole video! he deserves a Netflix series honestly

this was SOOO MUCH fun!!!
you knocked it out of the park
You killed it, Your Grace.
Ms queen, that was some awesome accompaniment, you got an excellent groove, pocket queen is well deserved
Great drumming, and it looked like you were having loads of fun.
TPQ in the building! The focus faces was priceless
She was amazing instantly recalling the drum patterns for each song. Greg of course was Greg 😊
So basically he’s doing Stand Up with a keyboard on hand
Haha! Greg is a total riot!
I've seen some preachers do the same! He was outstanding. "Thank you Jesus!" Best way he could have ended it.
Greg could be preacher
Guess he's a prop comic 😂
Pretty much! This is awesome
is nobody gonna mention how great of a drummer she is??
She's awesome!!
She's ok. For a girl.
Greg mentioned it at the start. And yeah, folks are commenting on her. She's fantastic. "Pocket queen" is a great name indeed. Sensational.
@@plutoloco2378stay hating
Well folks not mentioning it could go either way. Lol. It's like, what's understood ain't gotta be explained. 😆
It is a joy to live in a world where such talented people exist.
You are right!!
Amen to that.
THAT is how to demo a product. Well done to all. Great vibes
Take notes, because THIS is how you do a demonstration of a product. You can tell everyone was having a lot of fun, too!
Can’t wait to update!
Right them boring ass product demonstrations are a pain in the ass to watch
@@jamariancarter518 especially when they're barely playing and are doing more talking than anything.
im pretty sure if anyone was not having fun they would have edited that out lol
Amazing demonstration by her and him makes me want to buy it
@@jamariancarter518 😂😂😂 I was not ready
I'm really impressed with Pocket Queen's recall of all the little licks that are unique to these famous songs. Not everyone can do that on the fly.
ekko808 - she is a fantastic musician - a real 1st call artist - such a feel for the groove !
Does anyone know the name of the song she said was her jam? She sang the melody after they played it
Swv ( rain)
@@grannymcnoodle I think you're referring to Portrait of Tracy by Jaco Pastorius.
@@grannymcnoodle Rain by SWV with Portrait of Tracy by Jaco Pastorius mixed in
Mr. Phillinganes is such a treasure. And damn, The Pocket Queen owns her title for a reason. She's a queen alright.
more like all tight am I right

Does Greg come with the patch?
Greg is such a legend. He’s had his hands in some of the best pop recordings of the last 50 years. From Michael Jackson, to Bruno Mars , the dude has done it all.
"Some of the best pop recordings" is an understatement. He's a major reason Thriller is the best-selling album of all time.
@@wcs1870 Yes, along with all the other people who were involved in the production of it. I mean TOTO basically recorded the album. That alone tells you enough. Then there were some exceptional masters like Paulinho da Costa and Eddie van Halen and even from the recording side: Bruce Swedien as the Audio Engineer and Quincy Jones as the Producer. And don't forget people like David Foster, who played keyboard on the record as well. All of them made Thriller to what it is today.
I still own his first two albums…on vinyl!
I mean the man started in Stevie wonder band
Songs in the Key of Greg and Pocket Queen:
(Though I can't remember some of these)
2:39 Miles Davis - So What

Whatever is at 5:33 is beautiful!!
@@intheblink They improvised that in the moment just reacting to the patch! :-)
Honestly, after seeing SO MANY pitches from so many plugin makers.. this really DOES feel a ton better about these libraries.
It makes them feel more like realm music was can play on. WIN!!
Eric's laugh should be a sample sound in all libraries as a bonus
I could watch and listen those two go for ages..
"Stuff happens when you look cool"
Thank you mr. Phillinganes.
It never feels like Spectrasonics is trying to push a product. They just make the best instruments they can and let artists express themselves with it while putting a smile on your face. And the sales just fall in line because it's obvious in the way they operate and in playing the instruments that they really care about what they do.
Never a truer word spoken! All of the update videos feel much more like honest ‘announcements’ that the products have evolved rather than ‘adverts’.
That’s why I have everything except 1-2 sonic extensions…but I have the rest
This is by the far the most entertaining musical product demo I’ve ever seen!!! A much needed bit of fun and humour.
check out the one he did for keyscape. the only product demo i've watched multiple times
@@romulus_ yep. I revisit that every now and then when I need an inspiration boost to work on my chops 👍🏼
@@romulus_ Will probably never forget that "Eric, it has major cojones!" from the Keyscape introduction video.
I wish they (Greg + Trillian + Drummer) had a daily show!
and Eric's laugh
Pocket queen is the drummer
Man, Greg needs to start a career in the comedy business. Ah! And he plays nice, yeah.
Lol
Yeah if comedy doesn’t work out, he may succeed playing keyboards and stuff.
@@magicmulder lol man that's impossible... I mean he not succeeding in comedy.
So good, right? 😂😂😂
Greg is a legend. Humbled to hv met his buddies that made up the Bad Tour band when M.J. was living back in '87, Rory & Ricky at the Akai plant in Ft.Worth.
Nice sounds Spectrasonics!
This video is why I want to dedicate my life to music
I know this is supposed to be a product showcase but I feel like I got free tickets to both a concert and a one man show. Thanks Spectrasonics! :)
Except it wasn't one man...it was two amazingly talented people...
Can’t stop coming back for that Portrait of Tracy jam. RIP Jaco!
I only learned that "Rain" by SWV was from a sample a few months back when TH-cam decided I needed to watch Thundercat's top basslines video. I've known about Jaco for decades but I had never heard this until then. I love discovering "new" old music!
He really just did that man.......
the best!
The truth is when you see Greg on a Spectrasonics video, you leave with smiles, amazement and happiness. Pocket Queen definitely brought the vibe and the immaculate pocket.
Lovely stuff Eric and the team!
you guys couldnt have picked a better duo. perfection
Per Quincy Jones, Greg Phillinganes wrote the C section for Jackson’s hit “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough.” The fact Greg's the world's best pop keyboardist is obvious on this video! What a player!
And he got no credit or royalties for that effort either 😑
C section? What do u mean?
@@gravy2973 but Mj payed funeral of james Brown , gave royaltie to LIttle Richard etc and 500 millions for poor
@@lartisan6274 what does that have to do with the point in question. He paid no royalties to Greg and that was wrong ..
@@gravy2973 he did pay him for thr arrangement. Greg wanted co-writer credit. The c cection is less than.10% of the song. That's not co-writing. Simple as that. Q keeps sh*tting on MJ for whatever reason. When everybody know the machiavellian was him. All of MJs engineers say how Q knows not the meaning of "humble".
I sincerely believe music is one of the elixirs of youth. Musicians have the heart of immortality.
I always love when Greg stops by Spectrasoncis. Always a good time!
His original video with Keyscape demo was the reason why I bought it....then I thought, why not just get Trilian too. Spectrasonics is just too addicting.
Oh my god the chemistry
"I GOT SOCKS OLDER THAN YOU" LOOOOOL
I got pocket lint older than Pocket Queen.
That’s right bring the dad humor brother 😎
I need a 3 hour version of this
Greg Phillinganes and Pocket Queen needs to be hired by Spectrasonics. Making tracks live with all their software.
My goodness, that Portrait of Tracy rendition was so special
Holy Christ!!! I knew that Greg was good but The Pocket Queen!!½!!! Damn she got chops and attention! Seeing here just looking at Greg and assessing the beat is just awesome! Truely awesome video!
I own keyscape but this guy is gonna make me buy this!
THIS SOUNDS SO GOOD!!!
100% worth it
The funniest thing is that the guy will demonstrate the effects of the plugin and ends up putting on a show!! You are to be congratulated!
How is this man not the most famous host on the planet is absolutely beyond me. Put this man in charge of Sunday Night Live or sumthing and the world is HEALED!!! Hallelujah!!
This is the most fun showcase i've ever seen. Hahaha. Awesome!
Man I could watch Greg play and goof around for hours! If this isn't the best kind of publicity for a product I don't know what is
Damn! 'Fretless Entropy' took me straight back to the 80's Synthwave Era!
When they played the Jaco one you can really feel the bond! No more jokes just feels for the both of them. What a magical moment!
This video is just a couple hours too short!
Seriously though, these demos are one of my favourite things to watch, they always bring my mood up. Still occasionally rewatch some of the older demos, like the ones with Shaun Martin (still hoping maybe there's a bit more in store from his session left maybe?), and I'm sure this will be one of those that I will rewatch every once in awhile.
I just LOVE Greg Phillinganes! What a great player, teacher, presenter, and personality. Never a dull moment. What a talent...he is a National Treasure!!!
I dont know who had this idea to promote the product but this person deserves a fat bonus. That was awesome !
Every new product demo should be like this. Especially in these times, a good laugh (and there were many here) is always welcome, and is even therapeutic!
You had me at "Urgent Self Care + Sonic Assault Bass" - fantastic track.
Oh yeah and Fretless Entropy brings it home. Loving the Synthwave.
My God, the Jaco Bass made me want this VST more than anything I've ever heard...I must have this
i'm surprised i'm just coming across this video, the way pocket queen gets the drum in line is amazing. Kudos to Mr Phillinganes, mans a legend.
The jaco fretless on 14:58 is just mind blowing!
Definitely my favorite wow
Late to the party here but wow the jaco fretless got me too. That tone just pierces to the bone and the drummer NAILED it! Anyone know what song that is? I assume its a Jaco tune
i’m also curious what song -- i’ve definitely heard it before but i can’t recallll
@@therealizeproject hey bro I’m sure they’d chords have been used in the past forsure ! But I’ve heard them recently, and actually only on this instrumental, it’s called Sturdy-Take45 ! It’s been around recently on social media with dances
Portrait of Tracy - Jaco
It was also sampled by SWV as Rain.
Most of us forget how skilled Greg is. He can play so well even when he looks like he is goofing around. 🙏
You're a smart man Erick, putting that man to showcase the product ... he's so bloody awesome... can't wait to se what the other guys do, but the bar has been set high, trillian always sounds amazing.
How to get a musician to watch a 20 minute video of keyboard sounds/VSTI/Samples, Greg Phillinganes! Spectrasonics is the best, been on this train since Trilogy, Atmosphere and the original Stylus!
If this guy decides to run for office, he'd get my vote!
The cool thing is that this drummer plays a lot! Any song he puts on there is instantly popular!
Listening to this at 2AM UK time and now I don’t want to sleep! The sad part is that it had to end 😬
So Much Fun and Joy and Music. Like life should forever be. Thanks.
Dat girl has got some crazy groove, amazing skills!

OK, I demand a Netflix comedy special with Greg Phillinganes 🤣
Going to work and having fun is so much more than I could ever ask for.
This video made forget the pandemic for 22 minutes and 23 seconds 🙂
MAN!!!!!!
this.
Greg and the Pocket Queen needs to be a series. They have great chemistry!
This man deserves his own youtube channel. We need it.
Last song was beautiful PK was loving it - aweome!
I havent smiled that long for a long time
Love u guys!!!🤩
My favourite moment: the "Jaco Fretless"!🥰
LOOK AT THEIR FACES!!!😃
And - finally - the "Fretless Entropy" made me cry - for a sweat, short moment.😊
Shout to the "Pocket Queen"!!! She's bad!!! Tight!!! and very much ( in the pocket)!!
I still visit this video every few months, just amazing sounds and musicians. Spectrasonics are on point
WOW! That was a top notch jam session with the great Greg Phillinganes! And Pocket Queen - just wow! Cool drummer! THanks Eric for an updated version of the classic Trilian library! Yay! :)
THAT DEVO PART THO! Whipped it good fo sho. This is one of the best product demo ever. Fun, not forced and very entertaining.
Greg Phillinganes is a national treasure! The Pocket Queen did a very good job as well. Talk about a flawless demonstration!!
Always love seeing Greg play oh, the watching the drummer effortlessly and precisely play along was a true joy to behold.
Wow amazing! That Jaco Fretless patch jam was crazy. I watched the last Greg demo countless times and the pocket queen is a great addition. More!
Could watch this all day long.
Greg is so cool, Great player with perfect pitch. I'll never forget playing one of my difficult originals at Namm, one year, he stopped by listened to what I was playing. I sopped when I saw him and he came up, sat down & played everything I played like he wrote it himself. Great guy. I had a great time getting to know this brotha.
Damn near teared up at that Portrait of Tracy lick. Havent heard that in ages and really brought me back. Amazing improv after too. The hat is off.
THE Pocket Queen indeed! Amazing talents! Amazing!
16:10 he starts playing that bass like Michael Manring. THAT WAS COOL.
0:05 no combination of words in any language nor any form of communication would accurately express HOW MUCH I MISS YOU
Also, I refuse to believe that the pocket queen is 30
i could watch this dude all day 😂😭👏🏻
Congrats on this update Spectrasonics team! ❤❤❤❤
"Shred & Buns" ... Love it!
Greg Phiiliganes is amazing and have always admired all that he is done. The Pocket Queen is a superb drummer and I love her facial expressions, her smile and laugh.
I'm blown away by their mutual feeling of what the universe sent them at that moment
This has put a huge smile on my face this evening! All product launch videos should be like this!
Soo good they let him loose on this one 😂👏🏾👏🏾
The SWV - Rain cover at the 15:00 mark is gold
Now this is how you do a product video!!! Such incredible musicians, fulling vibing on a high!
Also they need to collab with each other if they haven't, great duo!
Damn, that Fretless Entropy segment was epic!!!
Fretless Entropy is just..... well, what can I say? I am speechless. The magic of Greg Phillinganes, the touch of The Pocket Queen and the genius of Eric Persing. All in one!
All of this was pure gold
This is my first time seeing Pocket Queen and now I am in love 😔
Absolutely fantastic. The epitome of what a demo should be. Lost count of how many times I’ve watched this. Greg & Taylor were masterful and fun to watch. As others have said they should be brought back and of course Trilian is simply superb
Give this man a tv show
"Probably some point we should probably play"??? 😂😂
My man Greg being a musical eddie murphy here, LOVE IT!
