Hi, could you do the score for this: ruclips.net/video/iAwl_an5XUA/видео.html. Is from someone and my country and I would be very happy if you did it. The title could be: When your uncle says he plays "a little bit of guitar"
@@teegeevee42 besides Casiopea he s almost equally as known for his jingles now it seems hehe But with those jingles he s probably the most listened to artist in the whole world right now... or at least among the most listened to
For ages I've had casiopea in my rotation and a couple years ago I've watched a random youtube doc about japanese trainstation tunes. When I put one and one together ...and they ultimately played casiopea in the video my mind was actually blown lol. I mean an american equivalent would be if it turned out Herbie Hancock wrote the standard alarms on iPhones
YES I’ve always wanted this one, the way the keyboardist *looks* at their goofy synchronized dances while playing the funkiest solo of all time never ceases to amaze me, long live Casiopea
the fact that this section is ONLY a keyboard and drumset really shows how talented these players are. Two instruments and they both add enough to make it into a mesmerizing and exciting feature
honestly, it also adds to how amazing the sound engineer was at this show! when the other two instruments come in, it doesn't sound like a wall of sound completely came out of nowhere.
@@mybluguitar6051 sound engineer did a great job, but it helps that you've got a lot of the frequency spectrum covered from low to high between a piano and the drums. They're already gonna sound very full together, and when you throw on the effects (reverb, some chorus, possibly a little bit of flange even) you're gonna get some nice results. I'm still amazed at the range of sound they get, though, it's all solid work all around.
Of course, it's a great performance by great musicians but let's not get carried away about the instrumentation. There's a _huge_ amount of music that's been written over the last several hundred years for solo keyboard. We've known for centuries how to write interesting keyboard music without even needing to add drums, and it's perfectly possible for a keyboard player who is competent but nowhere near Minoru Mukaiya's level to give a mesmerizing and exciting performance.
@@watermelone_man Return to Forever. Stanley Clarke is of the greatest bassists of all time, Chick Corea one of the greatest to ever chose the keyboard as his medium of choice, Al Di Meiola among the greatest shred guitarists of all time, and Lenny White holding it all together as one of the most underrated jazz drummers of all time. You'd be hard pressed to find a quartet with more talent.
@@tjenadonn6158 Yeah, I should listen more to Chick Corea since I love the light as a feather album... But as a defeance, I can say Jaco, Wayne and Zawinul together was just as talented as that quartet, that is in my opinion.
When Jazz Fusion/City Pop started getting big again, one of the main things people said it that it reminded them of 90s video game music. Guess what most of those composers were inspired by lol
Back in 2016, my old college roommate gave me a USB with Casiopea, Jiro Inagaki, Akira Ishikawa, Takuya Kuroda and a whole bunch of other fusion bands. Single-handedly changed my life.
YES! This is one of my favorite clips of all time. They’re having so much FUN and their joy is infectious. No pretense, no irony, no playing cool - they’re just in the moment, being silly and making each other smile. This is what playing music is all about, just sheer unadulterated joy with others. I was so happy to see this pop up on one of my favorite channels ❤
Thank you George Collier for exposing me to some seriously funky galactic shit. Just came here from the "James May" jingle video that Minoru Mukaiya composed and will be checking out the Casiopea's work shortly. The exact same thing you did for me with Richard Tee's "Strokin'" solo which led me to his complete concert. You're keeping good music alive!
I love this performance and I watch it all the time. It's like the guitarists wanted to see if they could get the keyboard player to crack up laughing, and they definitely succeeded.
Casiopea's grooviness is just out of this world. They are incredibly talented and you can see they have a lot of fun playing, the songs are amazing and amazingly fun to listen to, but also quite musically complex, what more could you want from a band?
George I love how your notes are literally what we're all thinking . Literally replayed that one bit like 4 times over haha Keep up the awesome work Mr. Collier! LONG LIVE CASIOPEA!
This is TWO musicians playing. Just two. If you ever needed a demonstration of the harmonic power of keyboard instruments.... (in the right hands, of course!)
My favorite fact about this keyboardist Minoru Mukaiya is that he wrote entire music theme for Tokyo's train stations. Minoru Mukaiya is famous for his giant love of trains. Every station in Tokyo have a special "jingle". But if you sum up all these jingles of all train stations, they will come up into a song. You should google that up, it's fucking incredible. As Minoru Mukaiya himself. The way he talks about it...oh I wish all teachers would talk like that about their subjects, like Minoru talks about trains. You guys definitely need to find and watch the video.
For those confused on the second point, every single station within a route have specific jingles and when you combine all jingles in that said route, it's basically a short song. Hope this helps.
Casiopea!!! One of the greatest to ever do it. They’ve got such an amazing discography and all of their songs exude joy and everything music should be. Love that they made it on this channel
As a lover of rock and metal music, myself, I've been having a great time discovering bands from Japan. There's so much great music that comes out of Japan that it's a shame more Americans aren't aware of it.
No, it's a shame the rest of the world dont know about it. This is music at its finest. Just do yourself a favor, when you come to America, don't turn on the radio. It's fucking embarrassing what is considered music nowadays. I've gone many years without listening to the radio. I have playlists on YT or my phone. I'd rather listen to that.
"Galactic" ultimately comes from the Greek word meaning "milk". So I have begun an uncomfortable tradition with my friends of referring to this tune as "Milky Funk". I'm really glad to have gotten in on this little Casiopea resurgence early. As a bass player, I've never been super inspired by slap players until I hear Sakurai do it. I really hope I get to meet him someday.
This video never fails to make me smile so big and wide. The whole band is just so happy to be playing, and such a simple little flair like the spins the bass and guitar make the already very fun music even more enjoyable! I love Casiopea so damn much, and thanks for the transcription!
I don't wanna take anything away from this insane chord progression. It's bliss. But can we give it up for Akira Jimbo at the back there just holding it down in the pocket and letting Mukaiya cook?
Casiopea always goated. This guy on synth Minoru Mukaiya wrote the jingles for all the Japan train stations, absolute legend... next up the bass solo that comes later in this same video
Ahhh yes this is my favorite song from Casiopea! Galatic Funk! But why was my first thought when hearing you play this "it was sped up a little bit..." Still good though. Thanks for transcribing it!
BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS CASIOPEA IS FINALLY GETTING SOME LOVE :') Edit : bro you even notated the dance that's crazy i stg lmaooooooooooooo
It should be illegal to be as amazing as Casiopea. Such energy, soul, funk and joy can be found in their music and their performances. Masterful musicians making marvellous melodies. 😁

Minoru Mukaiya was the keyboardist of Casiopea since 1977 until 2006. Now he’s composing melodies for train stations in Japan. What a guy!

They're pogging out of their minds
They're pogging out of their gourd
They're pogging off their bean

They're pogging out of their noggin

Or something different
@@derpkipper the legendary jazz fusion group lead by Wayne Shorter and Joe Zawinul.
He really doubled down on the “0:30 is the section you want to hear again” a full minute later and he isn’t wrong.
if you're clicked into the player, you can just press the 4 key and it skips back to exactly the right moment.
CASIOPEA's Live Performances are an absolute Goldmine of improv, as well as impeccable playing
Unlike a lot of spicy chords I see, including on this channel, this ridiculous, obscene spiciness just WORKS.
It's a circle of fifths, it always works
I love how Mukaiya’s just laughing at his buddies’ dancing as he tears a hole in funk space time
0:32 onward is the "Select your Driver" Screen music in video games xD
When Jazz Fusion/City Pop started getting big again, one of the main things people said it that it reminded them of 90s video game music.
Guess what most of those composers were inspired by lol
0:32 feels like I've just picked up and invincibility star.
same
Ekshuli, videogames in japan were inspired by Casiopea music
@@ms6653yes definitely Koji Kondo was very inspired by these guys and T-square for the Mario Soundtrack. I think it's really prominent in SMW.
You have! the star music was heavily inspired on Minoru's solo
Glad to see the circle of fifths still goes as hard as it did 400 years ago. The GOAT chord sequence.
Casiopea's not a band, its an addiction
💯 and one I'm happy to never give up! 😂
Back in 2016, my old college roommate gave me a USB with Casiopea, Jiro Inagaki, Akira Ishikawa, Takuya Kuroda and a whole bunch of other fusion bands. Single-handedly changed my life.

Does the playlist still exist is what I wanna know
i love this era of casiopea and japanese music, there are so many hidden gems if you go searching through hundreds of hours of this stuff

Thank god Jazz Fusion getting some love on this channel this solo man Casiopea and japanese jazz musicians are just on ANOTHER LEVEL
Another level? Level 42? ruclips.net/video/Oov7YEZMj8g/видео.html
The 0:30 probably the spiciest chord progression of all time
It's literally just a circle of fifths progression with extended chords. Not _that_ spicy.
@@karlpoppins Oh. Dang, the song sucks now, it's just a circle of fifths, dang wish I didn't know that.
@@michelvanbriemen3459 Did I say the song sucks? I love Casiopea, but this is not "the spiciest chord progresion of all time".
@karl poppins Maybe not spiciest, but definitely one of the most satisfying progressions

i didnt even see the "youll replay this section five times" untill I replayed it for the 5th time lol
0:32 ridculously catchy
contrary to collier's advice i've listened back to 1:00 for like ten times now
Swear to god the circle of fifths progression is just so magical.
IT IS THE BEST PROGRESSION EVER

“You’ll replay this part five times” 0:30
Damn straight
I did in fact come back to watch that one part 5 times
Can we give the drummer a serious recognition? It's not easy to play 7 minutes of that intense beat. His accents are on point also.
REAL
Yes - guy is pocket
1:02 I'm fighting Bowser for first place in Mario Kart or something like that kind of vibe.
he looks so happy :D
Seriously, my favorite thing about your transcriptions is the written performance notes. "Obscenely spicy" made me almost choke a hit.
The happiest moment in live music history
全力で楽しんでこその音楽、そう思える演奏と笑みの数々でした…演奏していない自分が泣きそうな程すごいバンドだ…
The most infectious good mood I've ever felt! They are having so much fun, and I'm getting a piece of it :D
This is beautiful! The playing, the fun, and the transcription!
I love Casiopea so much!
I took my and mates to ONE phish show and now they do this at every concert we play lol
Kids of today, Casiopea should be all you listen to on any platform, this is what music is about !
FINALLY CASIOPEA
Their pianist during this era uses such fucking awesome dissonances, I'd LOVE to see their stuff covered more. They're so overlooked
wow he looks so happy. this is just amazing.
Minoru Mukaiya is simply the most adorable little dork in all of music history. He's a Smile Elemental.
0:30 you'll replay this section 5 times. Hell yeah! 😂😂😂
the new Rainbow Road track sounds amazing
I love how they all have such huge smiles on their faces the entire time
The whole band were absolutely on god damn fire for this concert. I love this and the concert they did in London. Dazzling and Spice Road were lit! 🔥🔥

That section hits like whisky every time man. Spicy up front, then goes smooth sailing all the way through a golden caramel galaxy
This comment is a sleeper hit. It's a perfect way to describe at least 77% of all Casiopea songs.
The pure joy of the pianist is beautiful

HELL YEAH! There has been times I've legit repeated that synth solo 20 times in a row because it's so epic.
I’m sorry, but what exactly did I just hear????? I’m perplexed and in absolute awe of those voicings. Chords I never even knew existed
HES SOO HAPPY 😃
this is why i love playing music 😭

God I love Japanese fusion. The energy is TOP tier
who funk infected my friends?
That B+7(#9) at 0:48 is.... *chef's kiss*
0:30 just gonna leave myself a timestamp. Annoyingly, George was right 😔
It should be illegal to be as amazing as Casiopea. Such energy, soul, funk and joy can be found in their music and their performances. Masterful musicians making marvellous melodies. 😁
now I can finally attempt to play that nasty chord progressions, thanks!
You will never effortlessly perform such triumphant and joyful music.
I'm now into Casiopea in a big way thanks to this channel.
I can't even describe the feeling when he goes up to the CM9
Hell yes! Everyone could use a little more Casiopea in their lives
If I could time travel, id absolutely go to the eighties, go to Japan, and see Cassiopeia in concert.
