Woah. This guy was my teacher in a jazz summer camp when I was like 15 and I always remembered how enthusiastic and knowledgeable he was about synths. Really glad to see him on this channel getting well deserved recognition
first time hearing this guy. fucking love it. its like a fusion of anomalie / nick semrad / lofi soundcloud hiphop beats nice to see someone kill it so hard in terms of demonstrating the performance potential of ableton with a high-end controller
He’s not a genius. He’s a good player and understands the technology. But a genius? No. Genius is a word that is thrown around WAAAAAYYY too much for so many undeserving people that are simply clever and found their niche in a world full of lost people, most with no clue as to what their own purpose is. Mozart was a genius. Vangelis was a genius. This guy? No. A good and trendy player, but no genius.
Beside his playing... I like very much the sounds ... There's one sound that reminds me from a little synth back in the early 80' ... Casio Vl1. Beautiful presentation ! Is there someone who can tell me what kind of software he uses for the backing tracks
Hi, Woody! Gosh, not only have u captured me as a loyal subscriber, you also take the time to search u tube for great gear to share in your future programs!🔥😂😂🔥
Hi Nord, congrats on the great new product out. Having the NLA1 and NL4, Should I now consider Nord Wave 2 (NW2) as the successor of these products? Second is the A1 engine part of the NW2 Synthesizer and could I use the sound manager to also load sounds from my NLA1 and even the NL4 into the new NW2? Only thing left to add is the desire is to be able to interchange the beautiful Piano library from the Nord Stage series. Thanks.
Will nordwave2 get the seamless sound transition feature update soon? I think this feature is very critical, and many people wish this could be realized.
Как добиться такого звучания? Интересно было бы узнать все подробности, где игра на инструменте, в где фонограмма, сколько её, как подаётся сигнал, какие эффекты используются, как и где работает арпеджиатор и остальное. Можно даже сделать отдельный ролик в котором будут раскрыты все секреты идеального перформанса)
How would you describe that very last patch he's playing on the wave? it's a familiar brassy synth ound but I'm curious, it sounds so familiar I would like to know if any of you can describe it better. Thanks.
Very Snarky Puppy-ish, Forq-ish, Robert Glasper-ish, Michael League/Cory Henry -ish that is truly great performance !! Edit* couple of AIR & B. of Canada spice here and there help too
@@bateimidrashnetwork well - to be honest, it was indeed an assumption based on two things; 1 - he is using exactly the same sound in an earlier released video, playing the same tune on a Prophet 6 --> its published on his channel. 2. the sample editor is a great feature addition to the Nord and the Nord itself was being demoed during that time and stage. Very much later, as more videos came up I noticed the arcade sound is one of the patches in the Synth, but still feel free to correct if am wrong here.
Funny thing is whenever I'm at a music performance i find the older members of the audience are the ones who are more likely to take their phones out and film
What a lovely performance! But I must say that judging by this video and the previous demos of the wave 2, its sounds are unimpressive from the default presets I’ve heard. The stage 3 though is still something amazing. I know it is like comparing apples and oranges, but having 1Gig of sample playback, seriously? A cheap controller and kontakt 6 will do 10 times more. Though I love my Nord piano 4 and as a professional musician uses Nord all the time, I just wish they would bring out a product that would truly dazzle spec wise- they are continuously behind the other major companies - Having said that, their pianos are the best sounding after pianoteq 6 and personally their piano action is exquisite. Major companies are now only starting to realize that software intergration is a main part of live performance - Having audio thru usb to main outs or a separate audio for software instruments will become the norm. Their artists though are always a joy to watch :)!
Xrex O I’m not sure what you are talking about. Read my very first sentence. I was impressed with the performance - I’m just talking from a general working musician point of view (myself) One instrument cannot and is not presumed to cover all sonic spectrums. Software development has come so far that it would be great to have an instrument that allows you to expand your sound palette by adding software integration. Whether it is to add Kontakt or other interesting software, just will make it easier and more flexible. Even the performer had a laptop running - we all use it. A lot of times you get book for sessions covering certain songs where you know which software instruments were used. Instead of running a laptop with extra audio interface, it would be nice to expand your Nord by running software thru it and have more immediate control over it. Actually the Nord instrument library is quite mediocre - I heard the new strings release and that does sound quite nice but is miles below the quality and range of Spitfire or Vienna sample libraries.
can someone tell me the scale he's using around 7:38-7:43? I've heard other guys do this and my ear just doesn't know what's going on here so I don't even know how to properly google/youtube it.
It's actually not in one key/scale, which is why it sounds so weird. It starts in Bb major, and then goes a half step down to B major. -P.S.: He's not using a scale, he's using a key. A scale is playing notes going straight up or down. A key is what a piece of music is in.- Edit: I don't know what I was thinking, he is using the scales to solo, and you don't have to go straight up or down a scale. Sorry about that.
I would love to see one of these in a really nice grey or black color . And why is jazz always on offer ? I want to see a performance without the flashy keyboard player this is too stylish I feel like I’m in the lounge at holiday inn next door. 👽
Anyone know how I, a small handed keyboardist, can do melodic runs like at 5:37? I see them all the time, but I can't wrap my head around them. My guess is that it's all in the fingering right?
@@NZsaltz Well it kinda does have something to do with hand size due to the amount of reach you have between your fingers. I realize now it's just a technical thing though that I need to practice. Thanks though.
Woah. This guy was my teacher in a jazz summer camp when I was like 15 and I always remembered how enthusiastic and knowledgeable he was about synths. Really glad to see him on this channel getting well deserved recognition
What summer camp did you go to?
@@NZsaltz Jazz summer camp
@@adisharr Thanks
@@NZsaltz apparently it was tortured, indoor sunglasses keyboard summer camp
first time hearing this guy. fucking love it. its like a fusion of anomalie / nick semrad / lofi soundcloud hiphop beats
nice to see someone kill it so hard in terms of demonstrating the performance potential of ableton with a high-end controller
Ear candy with massive nutritional value! Shockingly good abilities! Thanks Julian! (and Nord, for featuring the best geniuses!)
All this needed was a good demo and J3 delivered!! Im sold now, guess Nord Wave 2, will be on it's way!
buy Yamaha and actually play the thing
I haven't got the green 🤣
Love the live tape warbles and ducking. Amazing performance and playing!
If his ability came with it, I'd buy one.
Naaa this is the comment
This guy is a genius producer / composer
He’s not a genius. He’s a good player and understands the technology. But a genius?

Best demo from any manufacturer......hands down dude killed it for his endorsement with ease.....WOW...
Идеальный пример исполнения на синтезаторе. Здесь всё сбалансированно - приятное звучание и наблюдать интересно. Лучший!
The true Nord Keyboards Artist!!
With time comes change.. they're all Nord keyboardist in their own respect. Live a little and give a little grasshoppa
musikman337 no sir ..... Nord had artists up there who didn’t know how to work their gear. They should not be named Nord artists.
I love watch this J3PO jam out. He's one bad dude. Fr.
Beside his playing... I like very much the sounds ... There's one sound that reminds me from a little synth back in the early 80' ... Casio Vl1. Beautiful presentation ! Is there someone who can tell me what kind of software he uses for the backing tracks
it's been a week since i discovered j3po and i came for my daily dose, 100% validé
7:28 wow that piano solo amazing
Seeing him for the first time he's insane
I agree
The jazz modulations of your melodies is fantastic!!....
6:30 Those Nic Semrad Prophet-pads -- - -> the 7:30 Kiefer-style Rhodes - - > the 8:20 Glasper-style beat. J3P0 - you're the man!
J3PO Rocks!...great sounds, playing, programming, you name it. He's got it all! 🙏
This guy know his nords! 👉 he moves seamlessly through sounds and effects without thinking about it.
...the solo at 7:29 kills my brian..... :-) i love it !!!!
The audience is now pregnant.
Ha ha ha! True!
Insanity. Dope AF. One of my fave players.
That was simply brilliant listening!
damn, that was bloody excellent
Hi, Woody! Gosh, not only have u captured me as a loyal subscriber, you also take the time to search u tube for great gear to share in your future programs!🔥😂😂🔥
Both machines sound incredible
Julian absolutely killin' it on the keys...
Very creative and out of the box I like it!!!!!!
what an inspiration - damn this guy is talented
excellent performer with a clear compositional vision - glenn gould meets suba meets...
Reminds me of Anomalie. Great sounds, even better player. wow!
andy25piano He is excellent but no way better than Anomalie.
@@RayyMusik They are both good and different
Careful with the word “better” when it comes to music
@@Gimbergp But I'm comparing the sounds and the playing of the same person. In that case I wasn't comparing it with Anomalie. Both are very good.
The real electronic music. Unique

Is there a full record for this particular session? We simply need one
Finished in the best moment. I wish there would be another 2 minutes
This is the new sound of a future that's light wave techno meets neo soul that shit go
Jeff Schinder is that you? 😁
Julian reminds me of Jeff. Two incredible pianists.
Will nordwave2 get the seamless sound transition feature update soon? I think this feature is very critical, and many people wish this could be realized.

What's the last song called? Couldn't play a title on it! It's noice feelin!
Very Snarky Puppy-ish, Forq-ish, Robert Glasper-ish, Michael League/Cory Henry -ish that is truly great performance !!
Edit* couple of AIR & B. of Canada spice here and there help too
JaBig * indeed
Very much J3PO, I would say - always these comparisons with other artists...
Nice work. Expected to see more of the wave2s capabilities
Amazing. There’s so much going on here.
Someone got they hangover glasses on.😎
Oh man.. to play nice keys music in huge crown on a nice Rayban is my dream lol 😂 That super mario tone is spot on!
7:26 aaaand im dead
So clesn I know, I had to listen to that part a few times. Mmmm
6:26 best section
Love those melodies!Love your music
@1:29 - the Nord sample editor is being used to play a sound from the Prophet 6 on the Nord Wave 2 - correct?
Why do you assume the wave 2 can't produce a simple arcade synth sound...?
@@bateimidrashnetwork well - to be honest, it was indeed an assumption based on two things; 1 - he is using exactly the same sound in an earlier released video, playing the same tune on a Prophet 6 --> its published on his channel. 2. the sample editor is a great feature addition to the Nord and the Nord itself was being demoed during that time and stage.

Finally. Been waiting for this one.
Love seeing some of the younger spectators soaking in the live performance instead of resorting to their phones to "capture."
Funny thing is whenever I'm at a music performance i find the older members of the audience are the ones who are more likely to take their phones out and film
@@nilskavanagh true
@@nilskavanagh the younger ones realize it will be on youtube later anyway. haha
Ok boomer.
BADGRRL I’m actually a millennial but ok. Thanks.
This is the first I've heard of J3PO ... totally kicks butt. Some great stuff. Gotta buy some of this cat's original music...
Hell yeah! J3PO getting some love!
Good taste, love the sounds
Este Nord Wave 2 es todo un espectáculo con sentido sonoro.
This Nord Wave 2 is a show with a sound sense.
He needs to be on Tiny Desk
Super talented musician! Fire🔥
Amazing! What is Julian using for playback and the controllers to his left? Love it!!
Looks like he's running an ableton live session from his laptop
Blessings Dinake Thanks! I checked out the pedals he is using, great stuff!
Absolutely brilliant!!!
Wow those beats omg on point guys
who is disliking this man...shit is fire!!
Nord is so freaking awesome
The guy playing is.
Super dope!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
what’s the bottom board his playing on (Stage 3?)
Best NordKeyboards Performance
impressive timbres and textures !!!
me encanta los sonidos de nord...exelente Julian J3po
You’ll notice that the crowd was spellbound .
There was no one leaving early .

Very cool !!!Thanks.
Those drums are off the hook!
so far my fav from nord namm
I would love to see one of these in a really nice grey or black color . And why is jazz always on offer ? I want to see a performance without the flashy keyboard player this is too stylish I feel like I’m in the lounge at holiday inn next door. 👽
we need the whole video
SOUNDDESING GENIUS.
Big fan of this guy.
wish we had the full set
so sick
Is it funky rnb soul ?
Anyone know how I, a small handed keyboardist, can do melodic runs like at 5:37? I see them all the time, but I can't wrap my head around them. My guess is that it's all in the fingering right?
Yeah, you could do that with just two fingers. Unlike spread out chords, that has nothing to do with hand size. Just hand speed.
@@NZsaltz Well it kinda does have something to do with hand size due to the amount of reach you have between your fingers. I realize now it's just a technical thing though that I need to practice. Thanks though.
1:27 reminds me of Terraria
lol water biome maybe
Does the stage 3 have a kill switch too?
He's sick!!
Anyone know what kind of keyboard stand he is using there?
Esse cara é fodaaaaa dmais vey, sou dele. ele toca com tanta calma .
You don’t just need money for the gear. You will also need time for the skill.
AMAZING!
This guy is pretty good
Mi sono commosso....
Thank you 🙏🏾
Love how the Korean looking kid looking in the back vibing with the sounds he know what’s up.
He dont look korean
I have no words for that what you do.
that one kid in the background feeling it hard though.
amazing!! master!!
