    Jacob,
    I am a musician, keyboardist, pianist and music producer with visual impairment here in Brazil. I came to your channel on the recommendation of my music teacher, who spoke very well of you.
    What spectacular ideas of arrangement, my friend!
    What a beautiful thing.
    You’re literally a genius.
    He managed to make a sensational arrangement at the height of the song.
    You are living proof of how it is possible to be creative and listen to songs like this (known) in a different and fun way.
    I vibrated a lot at the moment the solo of metals, piano and bass appears. It gave me a pleasant feeling of joy, happiness, ecstasy....
    Very good indeed, fantastic!
    And those "take 6" voices? Just great.
    I’m still looking for decent samples of voices like that for my keyboard.
    Who knows, all of a sudden, we’re partnering to create a realistic take 6 sample with expressive joints like vibratos, etc.
    Already imagining the next arrangement for the song "Cidade Maravilhosa" (anthem of the city of Rio de Janeiro) in Jazz... :)
    All the success in the world for you. I’ve become your fan!

      Mozart was not a genius because he could play instruments at the age of 5, but because of his own original melodies. He wrote 600 original pieces that will never be forgotten. Jacob is an extraordinary musician but he’s not pushing the music scene further, he is recreating songs with advanced arrangements, but I cannot think of one song of his that could be called as a genius melody that will never be forgotten. You don’t have to be a genius to do genius music. I hope He realises that soon and starts doing something original and innovative.

    I’m sure that the sheer talent and musical imagination of this man is probably way beyond the understanding of even the most accomplished musicians on earth, yet the thing about Jacob’s music is that the SHEER JOY he brings with it is accessible to EVERYONE - and utterly infectious! And then - as if that were not enough on its own - his incredible skill as a video editor/imagineer adds yet another DAZZLING dimension to his ability to communicate with all our sensibilities. For me, this rare and precious combination of mind-boggling skills makes Jacob’s astonishing arrangement/performance of “All night long” the closest thing to the definition of UNBRIDLED MUSICAL ELATION imaginable… Everyone - just FEEL the joy!

Every era has added it's own unique things to the world of music, it's no different for the 80's or pop music in general. Even today the sounds will be different and they will be again 20 years later. Music is fluid, it's life and it's infinite in it's possibilities.
