BIG shoutout to the mix/master engineer this sound amazing
@@realeyesrealisereallies97 Tiny Desk concerts also have great mastering
Voodoo by D'angelo@@realeyesrealisereallies97
And yes this recording and mix is literally perfect.
DEFINITELY
Appreciate you bro 🙏
The guy in the sunglasses is super talented
lol all with glasses.
Personally I was feeling the dude with facial hair.
Lol but is true! All are genius
and he was wearing clothes as well
I can’t believe we’re witnessing and experiencing modern jazz from such young talented folks. We’re blessed y’all 🥹
18:32 AMEN.!! ❤️🙏🏾
Very true. Keeping Jazz alive!
👀🙇🏻♂️👏🏻
INDEED!!! 💯
Yes, you're witnessing something very special and unique in it's own form.
There is no weak link in this lineup. They are all absolute masters
When quality musicians get together you know it's going to sound flawless.
Wow!! These guys sound incredible! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Shout out also to the sound engineers and technicians. The mix and the quality of the sound are amazing.
You’re right of course about the quality but there is an enormous need for ‘measured flaw’ whether it be in music, the other arts or personality!
i still don't understand people saying music is "dead", it's currently more alive than ever
who is saying that?
@@chance2971 most oldheads à la Rick Beato who are saying music was better in the past
Exploring music they lack, being open is the way.
popular music was better in the past, (most) popular music today sucks. there's still good music today (e.g. yussef) though.@@meiji..
It was in the sense of popular music. The new music on the radio was better back in the day. Fewer listening options. Everyone kind of listened to the same thing. Now you have so many options that you are able to compartmentalize your tastes and never listen outside that genre. Still good bands and musicians out there but where do you find it? My buddy just turned me onto this today. But I can hear their influences. @@meiji..
damn the audio engineers also did their best, how can the audio be so clean in this environment thats crazy
Not a lot of direct sound reflections really helps!
One Take as you see it brother. No overdubs, 12 Track recording. Straight and authentic@@manu192khz
Lol😅😂 I know right.
Yo, seriously!
actually one of the best environment you can get
The most perfect set ever. Such a dream come to life. Whoever reads this, be well. Life life fully, spread love and music and art and culture. Life is so impermanent. Be a Humanist. Free Palestine.
This is more than just music. This is Alchemy.
alchemy is such a great way to describe this
I feel this too.
for me it's more like: this is more than alchemy, this is MUSIC
that triangle work in tioga pass is pivotal
Couldn't agree more, Alexander Bourt is doing a perfect work, and is emphasizing Youssef's grooves with a very minimal but super effective contribution, this denotes his incredible musicality and the respect he has for music and the importance of valuing music rather than personal virtuosity, I can only imagine how difficult it is to be the percussionist of such a creative drummer like Yussef, but I must say that Alexander is truly a master, one of the most beautiful and tasty percussionists of recent years, truly chapeau, and that damned triangle is the perfect essence of it.
@@gianmarcorosso You said it! Very tasteful addition to an already tasteful groove. :)
10000%
that guy is making me meeeeeelt! i thought that was a sample... my mind blew when i found otherwise
I came here to say this. That triangle is legendary!
This is what I like
Yooo masego
A1
didn’t expect to see you here, pleasant surprise
You guys got to get together and work on some more shit.
The spliff The Music The Vibe I'm high on my couch in the dark and its glorious
AYOOOOOOO THATS THE VIBE OG
MVP
Me three my friend! 🙋🏾♀️🤣 Best vibe ever. #inthecar 😂😂😂
Hands down this is by far one of the most unique and talented modern groups touring. Yussef has reignited a spark that's been missing in a lot of the music world as of late I feel and it's wonderful that he and the band are out sharing this with us live (not to mention documented/recorded as well). I can't really express how grateful I am and so many others are for this. I will most certainly continue to support & share! Thank You! 🖤🖤✨
Me too. Echoing your comments here
And Rocco certainly is a chip off his old man’s block! What great DNA!
U know that first song’s name?
I experienced that surfing off Cayucus, surf house Highway one. In the mid 80's. This I listen to any day of the week short board or tandem surfing on a long board.
This would definitely rock the Nepenthe with smooth, soulful Jazz beauty of Miles Davis' dreams.
That drummer’s got me geeking yo!!! Words can’t describe this man’s talent. Am I dreaming?!?! UNREAL!!!
YES. Rhythm so tight it's got me flinching!!! 😫😫
Every piece of Yussef Dayes are master pieces !! totally agree with you !
fr fr
At times his playing sounds like Drum 'n Bass then other times he's in the pocket eating the groove.
Right bad ass . .
The best part about live performances is the sauce they sprinkle on that you don’t get from the recording
There's no way something this good should be free.
Especially something this good should be free
That keyboard player is the contender for MVP in this lineup. He's supporting everyone so eloquently, and letting them shine (and letting a few good solos of his own rip from time to time). Amazing lineup.
Elijah Fox goes crazy
He is a stellar, supportive musician, with some great music of his own. I was lucky enough to see his debit show with this band about two years ago in Denver. He absolutely slayed it, and just keeps getting better
Love Elijah Fox, but I love the lineup with Charlie Stacey too. I’ve seen Elijah play with them, really hope I see to see Charlie Stacey someday. I think he’s credited on most of the tracks for the latest album and there’s a lot of good live performances on KZhead with him
Charlie Stacey is unreal. I saw them play in San Francisco and the keyboard fell halfway off the stand mid solo and he didn't blink an eye and continued ripping with the keyboard hanging at a 45 degree angle, until a someone pulled it back up. Also same show, in a pause/space of silence one song, Yussef brought the entire audience to roaring laughter by the manner he playfully jabbed the toms... it was pure wizardry, never seen anything like it. Easily the best show I've seen in my life, perhaps never to be topped...
His fingers running up and down the keyboard in those little quick flourishes at various points is mind blowing to watch. I've literally never seen a person move like that. This man has tapped into some deep cosmic understanding of the keyboard few could hope to achieve.
Saw these guys in Brooklyn last night... During Rocco's solo in Tioga Pass I screamed "ya Rocco!!" At the top of my lungs and the whole crowd cheered. Best moment of my life. Love you Rocco
I swear I think I watched/listened to this and I think I heard you lol
Lucky man 😎
As a local lad. Seeing Yussef’s rise from the community has been nothing short of inspirational. Big up. Still can’t believe I had the opportunity to get drumming lessons from him and never jumped on it. Big up bro
Would love to hear this story!
What you playing at mate 😂
Used to follow Yussef and his brothers. If you know, you know. UV. Also their collective. They also used to go to my school. I would bump into Yussef time to time and he would of course remember me. Literally saw each other at a train station - embraced. Said “how much I loved UV and his drumming style”. In his humble way he said - “bro let’s do it. Happy to teach you.” I didn’t get on that. I got caught sleeping. I’ve tried to follow Yussef as much as I can over the years. but now he’s going astronomical. And I love it. Big up the collective. Big up SE and the jazz and expression it’s produced over the last few decades. Inspirational stuff.
@@aaronseale9022Thanks for sharing. Music is a lifelong journey. Keep it alive!
@@aaronseale9022 Keep it up man, thanks for sharing your story with Yussef.
The Drummer is on beastmode 24-7
Yall weren't ready for this Yussef Dayes performance featuring Yussef Dayes in a Yussef Dayes track jacket.
Yussef Dayes featuring Yussef Dayes is one of my favorite lineups of Yussef Dayes.
I find it so simple - You see Yussef uploaded? You click You see The Dayes Experience premiering? CLICK IMMEDIATELY!
I actually shed a tear watching this...this is unbelievable...im so appreciative of life and what I get to witness way of sight, sound and touch. This is simply amazing...im a new fan... thank you brothas🙏🏾
I dream to this; traveling to different universes 💯
That's a cannabis driven comment if I've ever seen one 😂 to be fair, when this came on I did feel like it would go well with a bowl.
FIRE AF. These men are the Avengers of nu jazz
Whoever said laughter was the best medicine never heard Yussef Dayes. Bruh is no joke.
Shout out to the audio engineering - great job
Yes. Lot a work behind the scenes. Mix sounds stellar
next level
I was looking for this comment. How the hell would you get this sounding so clean !?!?
Does anyone here know what microphone they are using for the percussion overhead?
@@stillw0kes818looks like a Sennheiser MD441U
You won't hear anything better tonight. And "Black Classical Music" is best LP of 2023y
I KNOW MY SOUTH AFRICAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS ARE HERE❤
always 🙏
If you’re here you have better taste in music than most people.
what a shitty presomptuous thing to say
Someone said it in the last vid, but same again here. Whoever mixed this deserves a Grammy for real!
I am so so grateful to have been introduced to “Black Classical Music “. This guy is truly great and inspiring. ❤ from South Africa
This should be in the new GTA, imagin driving those beaches with these songs
Joshua Tree was already dope, this one is stellar with Malibu's sun. Outdoor Jazz is amazing, free as this music is. The keyboardist is a master !
the keyboardist is elijah fox, his solo stuff is absolutely amazing and definitely worth checking out
@@joesmithies1123 Yeah, I took a fast look yesterday, gonna check more!
If there's no wind or just a little breeze i think that's a sound engineer's dream to record outside in an open space like that and it gives a beautiful sound (as you can hear 🙂), let alone if recorded with high quality gear, but even with wind there are accessories or gear that do their job pretty good. You basically have zero reflection (or a natural reverb/echo if you are outside but in a place where there could be some distant surface of any kind which can reflect the sound) instead of the unpleasant excessive sound absorption of a small fully treated room but you got the natural sound dispersion/diffusion, which simply goes naturally and gradually away in the open air, like a caress lost in the sunset breeze...
@@joesmithies1123absolutely, dude is impeccable.
Brilliance I'm sure their old school music teachers and cosmic ancestors are loving this ..
THE TALENT AMONG THESE YOUNG MEN ARE BEYOND WORDS.
That SWV cover! 😭🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's better than what they did 🤣
This isn’t music… this is a conversation in a language many don’t speak, but those of us who get it, get it.
Well spoken!
This is what the world needs.. vibrations of positivity spreading throughout the sky. Peace and love to you all
dawg. wtf. first can we talk about some of these synth patches? insane. second how driven the swing is but it sounds so tight? absolute insanity. thank you for giving us this experience at home
AGREED
Yussef's drumming style is so unique. It's like he's using 10 hands with 5 sticks in each one
THIS. IS. MUSIC!!!
I can't live without music. I've listened to some shit in my 41 years of life, but this shit is the shit. Thank YOU Brother!
That boy Elijah Fox on the keys is damn talented.
It’s always a good day when Yussefs’ playin
That version of Tidal Wave sounding incredible 🔥🔥🔥
Second that. Amazing stuff
This is more than just music.This is Alchemy.. FIRE AF. These men are the Avengers of nu jazz.
combing two other people’s comments 🤣 try thinking for yourself brother
It’s impossible to say Jazz is dead when this stuff is coming out
Rocco Palladino is a legend
apple doesnt fall far from the tree
like his father Pino
This guy is one of the greatest drummers ive ever in my life
U.K swag and musical genius personified.
Words can't do justice to his incredible talent. Is this real life?! Absolutely mind-blowing!!!
We must appreciate the effort that was put in to make this, it is fire! From the musicians to the team in production, and those who did the amazing mixing here, it is just flawless! And Thank you @Yussef Dayes for putting this out here for us to experince.
You are absolutely right about the all round quality. These boys are possibly the best jazz band in the world. What I see and hear this as a call for peace and love.
When watching artists like this I am always thinking: It must be so much fun beeing this good with your Instrument. Beeing able to Jam with fellow musicians, just getting lost in the Sound, forgetting time and Space…
thank you algorithm
i've clocked 30 listens, this is by far one of the greatest pieces of modern jazz history to grace this world.
Was feeling a bit low , but my spirit has lifted hearing this music and watching this beautiful video.Thank you 🙏🏿 ❤
BEST BAND IN THE UNIVERSE!
😱Just.... WOW!!!!!!!!!!! 🌝🎶👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💕♥️💕
I’m a very angry/high anxiety person. A lot of things don’t help me calm down and feel at peace with myself. Well I wanna cry tears of joy cause Yussef’s music is one of the only things that will calm me down and put me at ease and peace with myself. I love his music so much. Youssef and his band are my favorite musicians
You should try meditation, it takes practice, dont expect results right away. A little cannabis never hurts either. Good luck, keep seeking remedies, life is short, slow down
Cannabis to an anxious person? You should be more careful when giving health advice on the internet. @@jamalalqassem5079
Drums, Bassline, Sax, Keyboard Were all dominated by monsters🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
We are blessed to live in a time when soul soothing music such as this is freely shared on the internet. Much love to all. ♥
I'm calling it right now, this is the best live set to come from 2023.
This is the best rendition of black classical music I've heard. Amazing
There is always hope in the world as long as beautiful music such this one is played with hart , passion and expertise by great musicians. Thank you, this was really appreciated !!!🎵🎵🎵
It's amazing to see a bubble of spacetime of such pure art and beauty, backlit by god itself
Maybe the best original Jazz-Funk/Fusion group since Herbie & The HeadHunters... Yussef = best drummer !!! Funkin' groove and unique drum style, precision of the finest, a sound recognizable in one second
Malibu is the soundtrack of my resurrected soul
INCREDIBLE. The Jaco piece was beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Saw these guys at a pop festival (!!) in Belgium. The crowd of shoegazers and techno dance kids were blown away. Universal beauty.
listening to this on acid is just otherworldy beautiful.. thank you guys for this absolute masterpiece
The best jazz music these days!
Istanbul, Tidal Wave, Portrait Of Tracy, Malibu ♥
I am so glad i clicked on this...?!?!? 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was just on the final part of Black Classical Music and a Mariachi band started playing outside my house. You couldn’t believe how crazy that mix was
Yoooo Yussef shout out from Morocco, this thing cleanse the soul ✨ Cheers man
I’ll be in Morocco in February
Would love for this version to be released as an album … guys are so talented that the studio actually diminishes the output … just record gents let the music speak
this is how heaven sounds like
The drummer is a BEAST!
the drummer is yusef dayes... haha
If it’s music on heaven, this will be playing, sounds so organic, happy to see that we can find real music, blessings to all who listen to this.
Waiitttttt 7:10 that switch from the norm was crazyyyy. Rocco was really in his mood. Legend blood. Rocco fkn Palladino on the bass!
From Russia with love ☝🌞⚡🤸♂🥁
Today is December 7 2023 this just reached my suggested feed. First 30 seconds Blown Away! 🙌🔥🔥 New fan here from Philippines ❤
This is insanely good. Played this in its entirety for my class today, they are being educated in goooood music.
Gosh. The drums are so on point and yet all over the place at the same time.... the sax is caressing my eardrums in the smoothest possible way. The keys are floating around like clouds around the mountains roofs and rocco palladinos bass feels like some magic flying animal turned into sound waves. Absolutely amazing, can't tell if this is my favorite performance or if they're all equally perfect. Lovely
This explanation is absolutely amazing ❤
Great description. I was just thinking that the music was so mesmerising it's like the modern jazz (and much cooler) version of dance/trance music which we had in the 90s - I could go to a club and just vibe to this all night - who said you can't dance to jazz?!
@@cooldebt check out black gold of the sun 4 hero remix :)
and photek rings around saturn :)
@@joebloggs4925 Thx for the recommendations - some good listening there :) For something a little different, I often listen to vgm jazz covers and one of my favourites is the Mute City cover by The Consouls. They changed up the time sig to 7 instead of 4 and made it smooth.
Was blessed to see these great musicians at the Sydney Opera House Concert Hall last week, the rhythms & melodies are still buzzing around fresh my mind…
This is talent this is art this is a masterpiece
👍🏽 yes
when you needed to jam the most, they appeared
audio engineer did a great job this is divine
Such an amazing tribute of one of the most visionnary jazzman we got... We thank you for that.
The expression on Yussef's face when he knows he's diggin' it, is priceless :D
Yussef absolutely snapped on Malibu, reminds me of Chris Dave
This is one of the main reasons I want a Mountain side home facing the West, with a huge deck patio. I would have paid gatherings to watch artist such as these perform just before sunset. ❤
Saw these guys live in Tunis October 2022 and they're the most professional group of musicians I've seen live. Amazing musicianship.
Million views coming soon!!!
holy crap. The moment this video began I was amazed
OKAY... These need to be live concerts.... Seriously
That rendition of Black Classical Music was fuckin incredible
This is the business !
I love when my man breaks out the flexatone yo 😩
This “portrait of tracy” rendition is so mind blowing. Thank you…
I was absolutely not expecting such a gift for tonight! Thank you very much for the Music!
