    some people wondering , there is some other instrumental but u don’t see on the video and why ? . We are live-recording keyboard , drums , sax , bass . but also playing backing truck which has guitar , other horn etc ( the instruments u don’t see on the video ) . MiMi is hearing the click and the truck during performance in ear 👂 . So we can much with the truck too .
    ..Tried to break it down for non-musician people but sorry if it’s hard to understand .🥲🙏

      Love it! And great job explaining the click track to non-musicians. Anytime you hear instruments you don't see folks, it's a click track, often just called a "track" or "playing (singing) to track".

    • @dreamdancer8212
      @dreamdancer8212 3 года назад +141

      Well, I guess she means backing tracks that are pre-recorded and played back togther with a click. The click gives the drummer an accoustic guidance that she plays along with to keep the band and the pre-recorded tracks in sync.

      Stop lying! They are no where near an average HOUSE BAND. Don't ever insult BLACK INOIC MUSICIANS! They are okay. You have to do more than attempt to REPLICATE someone else's sound. Where is their own MUSICAL STYLE? We don't need and are not looking for what we already got. ANY musician can COPY! GOOD MUSICIANS have their own signature sound! JAZZ AND FUNK comes with an inner SPIRIT OF SOUL that comes from the BLUES and SPIRITUAL BLACK AMERICAN MUSIC we don't accept copy music. FIND A STYLE LAIDES not authentic!

    yes yes yes yes
    I know I'm not the only person who's noticed the importance of face when playing electric guitar or bass
    in addition to her beautifully funky chops Juna Serita plays with subtle great face
    I'm jealous of anyone who gets to shake it up or shake it off or just shake it shake it shake it on this band's dance floor

      @@Rati0nalThinker Of course, it sounds like something from the U.S., since that is where the music originated. Still harder to find the music these days in the U.S.
      It kind of reminds me of some of the other popular music from the U.S. from back in the 70's and 80's also. Music that got less and less play here but was still making hits in the UK through the 2000's. Impressed me to be honest. The same goes for Jazz artist from the 40's and 50's. The music lived on to a larger audience but on a different continent.
