"there's not a whole lot going on"
*cuts to 285 tracks*
Now that's Jacob Collier for you
@dylan foley Why are everyone talking as if this is a straight-boys-club????
And he usually does 600 to 700
Craig Toomey I get to about 8 and run out of ideas 😫😅😄
@Craig Toomey same but my computer gets overwhelmed too
I think Jacob is the only one that can reveal all his tricks and still nobody can get close to copy him
The thought of Daniel Caeser and Jacob Collier seeing The Joker together makes me so happy
2:17
Daniel Upton ikr that seems so cool lmaooo
How about another seventh chord, Murray?
14:52 "[quantizing] It's kind of similar to auto-tune in terms of emotion-damage. If you round everything to the nearest correct grid-based thing, *which is what a lot of education does to human's brains incidentally* .. mind-blowing associations
15:33 I'm not about to go have some babies [hearing this]... I mean, I am but for different reasons.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa :D :D
he summed up, in a matter of seconds, the reason why I completed my undergraduate experience suicidally depressed
Not really, as I haven't really seen quantization being used as an art form, unlike auto-tune being used on actual good singers, such as Ty Dolla $ign and T-Pain. In Jacob's music, they work well the way they do in All I need and Count the people. Where has quantization is just boring?
Evan Yoon it’s not only just boring but also lazy. Because with quantization you can copy-paste anything anywhere in the song
I KNOW RIGHT
"its like.. god blinking"
Oh my goodness I was reading this comment and heard him saying it simultaneously
This whole song is when god blinks
@@Murraye this whole song is god creating sex 🤣🤣
goddamnit i just commented the same thing
God hearing several of the chords Jacob played that pleased Him.
"time alone with you actually is indeed a song, but it's not just a song, it's time alone with you"
jacob collier - 2020
😂
around 36:05 it's weird when he says "I don't expect you to notice or even care about this" when we're all here because we care about the psychology that goes behind how he makes things that "feel a certain way" don't say that man! the little details are such an important part of the creative process, how could we not be interested!
yea this guy just casually facetimed daniel caesar out of nowhere
the same man who has a casual relationship with quincy mf jones. he is not one of us
Aren't they just people..
@@mazvita18 and Herbie Hancock
Ilia Tilev right? this guy just casually facetimed one of his friends. how crazy is it, who facetimes friends?
@@aislingoda6026 introverts: am I a joke to you?
41:00 Never did I think I'd hear Daniel Caesar mentioning my home city in a bad British accent but here we are
26:34 “EURGHH chipmunk gospel vibe” I’m stunned
lmao XD
"It's kinda hip"
It's like Every Hour by Kanye
jacob collier nightcore
lol
Jacob is my favorite musician because of his willingness to share his creative process. This is so authentic and takes a lot of vulnerability
1. 9:16 - slightly wonky
2. 10:00 - everything straight, only snare early, bass little late
3. 24:10 - varispeed
4. 26:58 - slow down
5. 31:30 - oneknob pumper
6. 34:56 - sound effect
"If you think you know your voice, which I think you think you do, then you don't." must be one of my favorite quotes of Jacob 25:19
"You end up with something which is, which is grid based, which is not human. Grids are not the same as humans. Humans are some of the least grid based creates in the world...in the universe...umm..."
Jacob Collier Alien Confirmed.
I get what he means, though.
"It's like Instagram, so not the real world."
Enzo Capun Hahaha
Talking about getting jiggy to the quantized groove.... "I'm not about to go and have some babies, well I am, but that's for different reasons..." I'm guessing he means robobabies?
people who get jiggy to quantised music only do so for the sole purpose of procreation
"I do crazy shit at night" me too, Jacob, me too...
Time stamp?
@@ben251 54:46
the weird part of the night
Walking on the rooftop 🎶
"Walking on the where?" 😂
I love how he groves to each individual peice, some I've hadn't noticed before... It just makes listening to it over again so much more satisfying.
50:37 If you listen closely he leaks one second of 'He Won’t Hold You' 👀
08:25 That moment when you realize that JC can make drum hits with his voice that sound better than most sample packs! ffs haha..
39:58 "... 'cause he has ridiculous ears so he would pick it up immediately."
Says you, Jacob.
imagine going to a movie theater in London, it's a nice October day, you buy your ticket, you go sit down in the actual theater. you look to your right. Jacob Collier and Daniel Caesar are sitting next to you, giddy over a song they just wrote.
your day has gone from good, to great.
i have been staring at my computer screen, mouth wide open, just astonished by the pure musical genius. the atmospherical sounds in the background which are partly masked by the music itself, but nonetheless add so much character, are just insanely cool. keep the grooves coming, Jacob, we need your music. its like pure love and skill combined in harmony.
I'm a trumpet player and being able to hear this 'up close', as it were, is just so inspiring and feels like a river or something just flowing so smoothly and beautifully, I wish I had that sound lmao
0:01 me when my mum says I can't get chicken mgnuggets
gimme them chmimcken mimknumgetts
chicknkein marcnuget
chickie nuggies
22:46 when jacob said nightcore "time alone with you" i felt that
This guy is the best music teacher on youtube .. add that to his list of credentials. More of these please !!!
7:43 When you're so genius your physical form can't keep up and you have to transcend into the metaphysical plain.
JC: So, Time Alone With You is a song,
*walks away*
1:01 "So, Time Alone With You is a song." *leaves*
Holy shit, its almost like it happened in the video.
Yes, that’s what happened in the video
HOLY
There is so much positive creative and in general valuable energy is these livestreams. Thanks for being the way you are🙏🙃
vncnt
@@alf58580 affe Hahahahahaha
34:19 Jacob is even amazed by his own musicality😂
Today is my Birthday. You Said happy Birthday. I feel appreciated. See ya on tour. Berlin🙌
22:31 I'm soaked my guy. Somebody make the whole song like that pls
22:40 sounds like your typical vaporwave track
I was wondering how when he records in his mic, there isn't any echo. Then I realized that there isn't even a tiny bit of untaken space on his walls
haha yeah nice catch
I cant believe that the best musician to ever lived is such a nice guy. What a great time to be alive
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHOWING HOW TO DO THE SLOW DOWN THING
Imagine having our lord Jacob say "He has ridiculous ears" about you. What an absolute legend.
"get the grid out" - love this. Also appreciate that he mentioned J Dilla with regard to beat stretching/placement. I'm a drummer and those Dilla beats have low-key stuck with me over the years.
Jacob is a national treasure and I'm not even British
He's an international treasure
36:56 “And this is... Jazz.”
Yes Jacob the whole piece is Jazz lol.
Vuldriel is it tho?
yeah but no
@8PedroFerreira Yesn’t.
Vuldriel ah quite so
Well it's like classic jazz style with the hi hat pattern
Your Logic sessions always come to me in my time of need! Everytime I've been sad or anxious or really down, or in this case, all of the above and in a lot of pain, I just watch a logic session and it makes me feel so inspired and hopeful and in awe! I love what you create so much, and you have made me fall in love with music even more than I ever thought I could (despite being from a family made up of musicians lmao)! Thank you for taking the time to do these hilarious, fascinating and endearing live streams! Also I'm seeing you at your London show for my birthday! Even though you'll probably never read this, I just wanted to say thank you for your words and your art, and I am so excited to hear you live and follow your music, wherever it takes you :)
I find it amazing that such a great musician takes the time to share with us his thoughts, tips and passion. I am really greatful. Thank you Jacob, we love you.
This guy is a genius! I find myself listening to this just to feel his creative energy flowing!!
I've learned like 5 of the most useful key commands from watching this. Things I didn't even know to look for such as Option+scroll to zoom as well as the right click menu that I didn't even know existed. Massive upgrades to the work flow
Lol that's the basics jk
Did Jacob just bring up...
S L A P P
Kyle Korb davie???
Epic!
This is incredible. Watching this really just helps show how possible it is to create - seeing the live footage in his room all makes me feel like yes! you can do it too! in your tiny room! with whatever you have! I don't know if you'll ever see this, but thank you Jacob for sharing with us your creative world and how it's done. I appreciate this video so much.
You are my favourite music teacher, thank you for all ❤️
Watching this now with quarantine set in, I see how it must have felt in the moment you understood that you would not get to show the world this most beloved creation of yours on stage. I feel for you. I wish that this was not the timeline we inhabited (though in that manner of thinking there are some fire 2020 world tour timelines), but I can express gratitude for Djesse Vol.3. I am settling into a new town for my second go at college, and your music has companioned me in a way that no one or thing otherwise could, so thanks for that.
"You know how collaborations go" Listening to this tune I don't think we do
The footage of you and Daniel was awesome!! I’m such a huge fan of both of you
17:47 Walking on the where?
"Well the best stuff happens fast I think" 20:35
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
*boom chicka wow wow*
I did a song a long time ago called "Let's Dance, Cinderella", and in the break I harmonized myself at half speed so when it played at normal speed it gave me a nice "mice chorus". I loved it! By way I can sing the octopus line straight with my natural voice. It's a perfectly natural range for me.
How many instruments do you want in your room?
Jacob: *yes*
Anyone else hear jacob collier in the background saying «yeah» at 20:25 ?
Man I’m so disappointed I didn’t catch this live, I turned on notifications for you but I didn’t receive anything!!! I have so many questions for Daniel, he’s incredible.
you should add beatboxing to some of your music? you’re seriously talented as a beatboxed (on top of everything else)
Damn I missed the live session. Rip. Still watch the whole thing tho
Literally same.
Yup
Same. We barely missed it.
I haven't made it to any of his live sessions 😂😂
Turn on your notifications for JC people
I really appreciate your willingness to teach others. You have an amazing heart💜 I pray that God conitues to bless and watch over you🙏🏾
Please please please show us some of the plugins you use, and how you use it! Specially on the vocals, you're a master! Just lovely to watch you explaining stuff
Your streams are pure inspiration for musicians, no matter what genre! Thank you so much! Greetings from a cellist 😊
Nobody:
Jacob Collier:
"Time alone with you is... A song..."
*Claps*
*Walks away*
love this track, so looking forward to vol. 3
At 50:40 you can hear an ever so tiny snippet of "He Won't Hold You" also from Djesse Vol. 3
I was scrolling through the homepage on RUclips mobile, and suddenly Jacob is just STARING at me with that face and made me laugh so hard lol
its so cool to see daniel and jacob facetime idk why i guess it just proves theyre cool people as much as they are musicians
I sent this to my music production student to watch because you are so inspiring- and so inviting for everyone to jump into the music! Thanks for all you do
jacob collier taught me to think differently and be more colourful
thank you, jacob
Breakdown Request- He Won't hold You. Congratulations on winning the Grammy for this song Jacob.
I’m looking at these beautiful willow trees on his logic session formed by the vocal tracks. THANKS for lifting my knowledge and mood! Great video!
3:31 had me dying lol
Thanks Jacob!
I always learn so many new things while watching these!
Jacob Collier has a mega massive genius mode brain.
Your Wired Q&A directed me here. You’ve got a new subscriber
Same here, binging on his stuff to catch up
@Jacob Collier When I first heard this song, I left a comment under the video saying it felt like I was showering in gold then going to have some toast and coffee in warm orange and cool blue lighting. I now understand why. This song has great value because REAL time was spent, not just throwing 3 tracks together and calling it a day. Then, listening to the break down is nourishment for both my musical knowledge and it encourages me to try something new.
And the main points Ive drawn from this video and other ones like it is, more is better IF you know how to add it, perfection lies in imperfection, and ALWAYS USE YOUR EARS. What may be off statiatically maybe what is right soundwise (ex. Switching time signatures, switching keys, going out of key, speeding up, slowing down, etc.)
Thank you Mr Collier, I am looking forward to the day we make music :)
I’m gonna record a vocal track, *SCREAMS INTO THE MIC*
My favorite moments:
2:33 "Only 285 tracks"
5:38 "Ugg there's a harpeji on the floor"
33:29 when he says "help!" 😂
jacob swearing still catches me off guard
33:33 "oh no i'm dancing help" lol
Still struggling to see how this is in 5. Does anyone get how?? is this some polyrhythm? I'm just hearing a wonky 4/4 beat
He brings this up at 4:52
Basically, the swing percentage is really close to 60% (quintuplet swing) so the “grid” can fit 5 equal subdivisions in it, he can count 5 over it really easily because he’s internalized quintuplet swing very well
I was just messin. It's in 4. : )
@@jacobcollier MADLAD
@@ijfilms7850 I really appreciate your comment! But at 9:09 he explains how it's just slightly wonky (~54%), and not 60%. Tapping it out it feels close to 57% - 7-tuplet swing. I can count the 5 beats over each bar like he describes at 4:52, but it doesn't seem to line up with anything. Just like one could count 13 over this, but it wouldn't be very helpful...
We done got bamboozled 12:47
The_Broski721
He sure was in a bamboozling mood
i love all the security cam footage of nocturnal creatings 📹
37:28 Just a placeholder for myself because those chords combined with those vocals are just **chef's kiss** beautiful!!! 😍😍😍
started with a hit song..now its an entire hit class..
3:32 “Ah! Oh no! I’m dancing. HELP!!”
I relate to this so hard.
I need that premiere sesion review so bad. An amazing video for an equally amazing song
21:25 "subtle degree of layering stuff"
*zooms out to reveal 9000 tracks*
Jacob talking about quantization.
Quantized: “Not very many people can get jiggy to this. Like, I’m not about to go have some babies. ... Well I am, but for different reasons.” 15:32
OK JC HAHA
Unquantized: rant about how it’s flexible and actually more human-like by being imperfect.
Nice.
17:03 So I think it's about time for music software to stop being grid bass, that... it's one of my, like... real passions....is to get the grid out people psychologies. Because the moment we start thinking in grids, then everything becomes grids, and it's really, uh.... It's like instagram, SO not the real world.
Hi Jacob, I love these session breakdowns! I always learn so much! keep it up brother, I love everything you do!
22:27 who's gonna slow down the whole song to this now
Makes for some pretty awesome vaporwave in my opinion, but that's not a bad idea.
Definitely making a WhatsApp sticker out of this @ 0:04
If you have a drum machine and program a beat just set the quantize to about 50% to get that falling off the beat sound. Chill hop uses this technique often. I never get tired of great musicians talking shop. I'm glad to see JC uses Logic, I'm the only musician in my circle of friends that uses it, although I have several other DAWS.
Bro… the most tracks I’ve ever used on a song is 77. And to think this man has used over 700 tracks before😮 LEGENDARY
14:50 Quantization is what education does to brain, oh man it's the best explanation I have ever heard.
Yes and no. How'd you learn to write that comment? Plus, Collier wouldn't be capable of doing what he does, without education.
School made me miss this live and I am veryyyy mad rn 😑😡
Desde Argentina Jacob mucho amor desde acá para vos..
Argentina ama a Jacob ❤️😍
