Yooo. 1000+ subs? Thank you everyone for the love. Still working on the new mashup with another baroque composer and an old school rapper that innovated flow.

I'm a piano teacher, lots of Bach over the years, and have also been obsessed with Aes since Labor Days. Never have I ever thought these two geniuses could work together. Your work is seriously brilliant and extremely fun! Will be ready for what's next.
Listen, Bach was in the studio to rerecord some parts. As I understand it, he had some input on the final cut too so don't listen to whatever they say. Bach isn't just a ghost writer, he will show up and hop on a track if the project is right. Example, this project is underwritten by his label so yeah
You have brought musical genius full circle. Thank you. I need an MF DOOM and classical mash up. MF CHOOPIN? Wolfgang Amadeus DOOMzart? I trust you entirely for the fire.
Do I know yall? I have a handful I introduced him to. Got lucky with pandora/music genome project back in the day and found him myself and spread the good word to all who would listen.
What this? I always thought that after Bach, music only went downwards. Then heared Aesop Rock and started reconsider. But what now? It‘s like… thanks!
Welcome to the world of Mashups. lol Sometimes they're called Versus, sometimes they're called [artist] x [artist]. Aesop with Bach, Sewerslvut with death grips, Tool with Taylor Swift, so on and so forth.
Aesop one of the best to ever do it. I remember being obsessed with DefJux for the longest time. Bazooka Tooth / Float. Those Were The Best Days Of My Life !!!
Reason #420 why we need to support of our inner city public school music programs. This is a work of genius walking straight down the streets in a pair of Air Jordans while rockin' a powdered wig.
My brother from another mother we can rap to anything or we can rap to nothing as long as we get to rap I don't give a crap slap a label on this and you won't be disappointed underrated overlooked but he speaks as if he's appointed so they anointed him now he's here to begin what was again and remind us all what lies within
Just scrolled through hundreds of comments - all giving the highest of praises. I cannot stress how happy this album makes me and its good to see that others are in agreement. It's just so good, this has become a daily listen, at least once!
Thanks to all the good comments I feel the same, this was posted on me and my wifes anniversary. Thank you for sharing this with the world, we need it.
I'm usually not into putting rappers bars on your own beats but this is first one I've seen where someone clearly really understands aesop's flow. This is the kind of badass creativity i've been looking for in shit like this, nice one dawg 👌
This is definitely top notch. But there are tons of great examples of laying acapella versions of songs over sampled and/or new beats. Repurposing existing versions of instrumentals & acapellas is a quintessentially hip-hop endeavor. We have to tolerate the failed attempts so we can enjoy the successes.
@@jean-lucvautour9789 imagine you're about to go on stage and perform for the first time, but before they call you out, they call out special surprise guests Aesop Rock and Johann Sebastian Bach for a surprise duo set. I would leave for sure instead of having to follow that act. My music obviously doesn't belong in the same category as theirs, few peoples music actually would, but, maybe it still has some sort of artistic merit idk. Appreciate it either way if you do or you don't, we're all still one to me
Are you out of your mind?? You can't drop something like this on YT and take over my playlist for the next month this easily. haha. Aesops grungy voice over those smooth Bach sounds, yikes! This is an ear orgasm masterpiece.
When I was around 17/18 years old and getting into music production and beatmaking for the first time I had the same brilliant idea to make an album of hip-hop beats out of classical pieces and layer acapellas over the top, inspired mostly by Busdriver's "Imaginary Places". Every single thing I made was utter shit. The beats sucked, the mixes sucked, the acapellas didn't fit and I gave up. It definitely humbled me and I've since got better at producing over the years since then, but it makes me so happy to hear that someone else has done what I couldn't do and done it so fucking well. Really nice work.
I consider myself an amateur connoisseur of mashup concepts. I know the big hitters of the last decade or so. Jaydiohead, Wu/Beatles, etc. I could go on. This is by far the very best mashup concept album I have ever heard. I just listened to it three times through. It’s astonishing. An absolute masterpiece. Per the top comment on this video now states, “it feels like I just found religion”. I have no better one liner sentiment to improve upon that. People will be talking about this one for decades. Recap of my first few listen throughs: raised eyebrow, mouth ajar, with the occasional “oh my god” and “No fucking way”. Track 8, Big Bang, is on repeat.
Smashing the like button just for that title, but then the music starts and I wish I could smash it again. As a die hard Aesop fan and lover of baroque classical music, this is one of the greatest things the algorithm has ever math'd my way. Beyond dope!
The feverish passion of two genius artists. This is musical time travel. It almost slows Aesop’s ADHD flow down by a 1/16th of a beat signature. Well done. Holy fuc.k
Saw this in my recommended and put it on just to listen to a few minutes and satisfy my curiosity. Ended up listening to the whole thing. Really great job!
My jaw dropped and I went speechless at seeing this appear ! Without even listening to more than 40seconds I’m already so stoked you made this!!!!! Way to ducking go.

Sweet thanks for the Bach list. Can't wait to see the next mashup! Keep it up for sure.

Please never stop making music, this is nothing but beautiful.
Wow. It's been a while since I've found a mashup to be creative and work well, this is incredible. Even the name is simply too good. Bravo.
Someone pls send this to Bach. He need to hear it 💯
I got bad news for you bud
Don't listen to him, he just doesn't know time is imaginary (yet)

Nobel Prize worthy, quite honestly.
Gonna bootleg this on CD and leave a couple copies at the old folks home
yo send me the file I'll record some cassettes lol
HAHAHA
lmaooooo
lmfao
This is a fricking love letter, man. Hope Aes gets to read it
You have brought musical genius full circle. Thank you.
I need an MF DOOM and classical mash up. MF CHOOPIN? Wolfgang Amadeus DOOMzart? I trust you entirely for the fire.
AmaDOOMus?
DOOMenico Scarlatti
Neither Bach nor Rock's genius is overshadowing the other. No chic flashy gimmicks or theatrics despite the concept. This is pure heat.
Man's been done for hundreds of years yet it slaps
It’s perfect
Excellent take. Spot on.
I mean… Who else could pull this off? True genius on full display
To whom it may consume, you win.
I didn't think I'd find perfection in this lifetime, but woop! here we are...
To the former best friend that showed me Aesop years ago, thank you man.
Former?
lol I know what you mean! My friend that exposed me to AESOP will always be invited to thanksgiving dinner.
Do I know yall?
I have a handful I introduced him to. Got lucky with pandora/music genome project back in the day and found him myself and spread the good word to all who would listen.
What this? I always thought that after Bach, music only went downwards. Then heared Aesop Rock and started reconsider. But what now?
It‘s like… thanks!
One genius arranged a meeting between two other geniuses. The result is three geniuses on one release.
aesop needs to hear this its gold
Dude seriously. This should be playing planetwide
Aesop Rock fans make the most madman concept mashups, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
This needs to be pressed to vinyl
PLAESE!
Already been looking. Sort it out. PURE class.
I NEED IT
Wow this is brilliant! The breaks and chopping are flawless. Now we need Aesop Rachmaninoff
Take it a step further…
Aesop Bachmaninoff
And Aesop Tchaikovsky!
Chopin Rock
Grey album, Wugazi and now Aesop Bach. My top 3 mash up albums and this one is genius.
My GoD! That mystery fish beat!!!!
After listening to this, I have come to the realization that only now I have finally experienced true happiness.
Yo what did I just stumble upon. I hope somehow Aes gets to hear this, I think he would appreciate it.
I've no idea what I'm listening to, but I know I'm loving it
Welcome to the world of Mashups. lol
Sometimes they're called Versus, sometimes they're called [artist] x [artist]. Aesop with Bach, Sewerslvut with death grips, Tool with Taylor Swift, so on and so forth.
I'll remember where I was when I heard this 🙏🙏🙏♥️
“None Shall Pass” mixed w/ Bach… beautiful!
Aesop should let u release this officially
Be an instant buy on a vinyl too.
Ian is a God amongst men.
My hero.
piano in "get out of the car" fits better than the original. nails the emotion
Nah son this is just unfairly good. *Grabs puffy wig*
The timing on the beat for the None Shall Pass remix is genuinely perfect
For real!
Absolutely glorious!
Yes sir yes sir yes sir all hail NON-A
Oh damn, reframing the vocals on the gates as triplets 🎉
Aesop one of the best to ever do it. I remember being obsessed with DefJux for the longest time. Bazooka Tooth / Float. Those Were The Best Days Of My Life !!!
definitely, man. my cd binder was slammed with def jux back in the day.
Def Jux fan forever and barely discovered El-P owned/created it during Covid summer.

The scratches over the piano and violins are especially nasty, ugh 🤘
There's some really genius stuff going on here with how you arranged it holy cow.
Also look mom my devil music is classy now 🍷
thanks dude
The devil is definitely hard rockin’ Prada on this one!
Aesop Bach are you killing my me
pinkie uuuuup
That’s real youth in the palm of your hand when your mom thinks Satan is involved in a band
SHAKESPEARE OF HIP HOP WITH THE ORINGNATOR OF HARMONY 😮 SOMEONE IS GOING TO INVENT SOMETHING THAT CHANGES HUMANITY LISTENING TO THIS❤
I didn't think this would work when I clicked the link... I WAS SO WRONG. This is amazing! I never knew I needed to hear this.
My RUclips algorithm randomly recommended this to me, and this is incredible. Literally one of the best mashups I've ever heard. Goddamn
This version of Mystery Fish has no Right going harder than the original
Imagine certain people will be hearing Aesop for the first time like this 🥰🥰🥰. What an introduction
Wake n bake just moved up a level
😤☺️💚🙌🏻
Can't help but wonder what Bach would make of it all.
Just scrolled through hundreds of comments - all giving the highest of praises. I cannot stress how happy this album makes me and its good to see that others are in agreement. It's just so good, this has become a daily listen, at least once!
It just works so well 😊
I think the drums are exquisitely executed and don't at all take away from the classical back bone.
The drums tie everything together so smoothly its not even something you consciously notice at first but it's damn near perfect
Blood donor to drum dozer. Plowin the metronome home
That “Harbor is yours” cut is fuckin bonkers.
I ran st8 to it dont even know how the rest sound
EXCUSE ME?!
🩷 This is so SO fucking lovely, my friend! Thank you!
This is one of them mashup albums that ends up being heckin' poopin' good.
The man said poopin’
🤣🤣🤣
My compliments to the chef! The drums, bass & scratches are spectacular all the way through!

This is just what tickles my noggin. This is AWESOME.

Same! 😂
is that even possible?? i've got $50 on a preorder right now if i could for sure.
The amount of care and time that went into this. Thanks :) This is truly awesome.
Not much can improve on an Aesop track. You have achieved greatness.
Commenting for the almighty algorithm. Great work, genuinely impressed.
I DEMAND A SECOND MASHUP
THIS IS SIMPLY TOO GOOD
Hail Mary Mozart
I'm not sure who made this, but it is next level. Easily the best Mashup Album I have ever heard. It's better than the DangerMouse/White Album even.
I very much agree
Ever heard of Wugazi?
This is absolute genius.
You went above and beyond on Big Bang, goddamn.
Great choice of aes songs. Some deeper cuts with some hits. 10/10
Why is this slapping harder than 90% of what came out this year???

So so good! Wow, just started immediately moshing alone in my kitchen 🫶🏻
This hasnt left my playlist in months.. probably my most listened to hour since it dropped. So damn good
If this was sold on physical media id totally buy this. My mind is blown!
