This dude just sits down at an instrument and downloads the skill he needs for it from the Matrix.
lol
and he even looks like Neo lol
I KNEW he was cheating!
1cm deep ocean.
If you become really good at one instrument and actually learn some decent theory, it then just becomes transporting those notes to a different medium. If you solo with what's in your head then it's easier, but if you play an instrument via visual patterns only then it will take longer to convert it to another.
2:45 "Hi Dave, how's it going?" - "Hi, my name is Dave"
Damn, Jacob's just quicker than the rest in EVERY way
He has a faster metabolism
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Jacob Collier is a time traveler: Confirmed.
I was the 1000th like on this comment
Chris Garmon jacob is sans
Alternative title: Jacob explains people’s instruments to them
lol
Not even 10 seconds in, and bro is already professionally playing a cardboard box
Its called cajón, it's a Spanish instrument
@@lp4969 No, he's talking about the literal cardboard box
haha i also thought it was a cajon but no it's a cardboard box 🤣
@@samhill6444 yes lmaoo
@@samhill6444 wtf lmao
I swear this guys gonna be in the textbooks 50 years from now
He'll be in the Virtual Reality PDF's 50 years from now
We totally agree!
He already is in some ways! My girlfriend studied him a bit in her fourth year modern music class
This bothers me.
Which College/School did that?
I bet he can play a Yamaha Motorbike
I mean if you rev it right you can make a song
Lmao🤣
ruclips.net/video/XRXwWbo_mX0/видео.html
the tv
No doubt whatsoever...
Yamaha employee: ”Yeah so here we have just a plain rock, yeah, just a rock we found outside”
This guy: ”Sweet” *tunes it and plays bohemian rapsody*
Lol
Underrated comment
That'd be logical, as it would be rock.
@@iTor LOL
Or “We Will Rock You”
I've never heard him play anything other than piano, had no idea he could play drums and guitar to that level. Mind blowing.
You should definitely check out his Tiny Desk concert then
I've always just assumed he could play most instruments. Once you understand music at HIS level, you basically CAN play anything.
@@gasser5001 Nah, hat's like saying you can box because you're knowledgeable about boxing. Take piano for example, all the music theory in the world won't help your fingers do what you want them to do unless you put the time in on the instrument and practice. Which he definitely has on these instruments.
@@LucasKingPiano
Yep exactly. He knows the theory and what notes to play because that's universal, but technique isn't. He 100% spent a lot of time in learning these instruments.
@@gasser5001 You still have to practice the physical technique to apply that knowledge on each instrument though.
I bet this guy can even play the yamaha leaf blower
He plays awesome leaf-cleaning arpeggios.
Autumn Leaves in every key with that thing for sure.
the maple leaf rag would be a breeze
Chicago's "If You Leaf Me Now"
A Yamaha motorbike
in this video: Jacob plays every new Yamaha instrument and masters it in seconds.
I can imagine the sales guys just dreaming that he'd sign on with Yamaha.
Yes, mastering that strange instrument with the 88 keys in one sitting
it's like:
Engineer: "new technology from space and mars together combined into ketchup"
Jacob: "yeah" *playing*
Engineer: "This is a new guitar created with Alien Company under a sea"
Jacob: "yeah" *playing*
Engineer: "We spent 100$ Billion for this xylophone from NASA"
Jacob: "yeah" *playing*
Engineer: "try this cocaine guitar, it is made by Pablo Escar in 2050"
Jacob: "yeah" *playing*
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
after he's done with any of them hes just like 'nice'
There's nothing he can't play. 😂
how long did it take for you to write that up hahahahaha
Ha!! I fucking love you for this!
Fun fact: Jacob's strongest instrument is actually the triangle. He was a triangle major at Juilliard but later changed to the hexagon
"So this is more like, orchestral percussion?"
*Casually slaps snare drum*
"Yeah, very nice."
*analyzing timbre and resonance of waves in the air*
He also slaps a cardboard box at one point early on the the beginning of the video as well
a good snare sound is a best sound in music.. no cap
4:31 When you start contemplating your inadequacies.
i felt that honestly.
Hello darkness my old friend...
You have to say that you’re fine...
That's the face of envy 😂
to be fair with the guy, he's all of us.
I keep silently hoping I'll absorb his skill by watching this over and over
Smart
Hahaha lol bro . . .
08:08 he’s so polite even though he doesn’t care what the guy is saying and just wants to play. Proper dude!
Let me to say my sales script, please
yah yah, absolutely, lovely *plays*
I remember that one Question: "Would you rather want to speak every language in the world or be able to play every instrument in the world?"
I think jacob chose the obvious.
Of course you'd pick the latter, the only language everyone understands
@@Den_Anderen amazing response
Gee I would have to, I am good at picking up instruments but he easily has way more talent then probably anyone I know
In case you didn't notice, he *also* plays the violin.
Really? I thought that was her mom only, never seen a video of him playing
He plays everything tbh
No he can’t, it’s one of the few instruments he can’t play.
I'm just waiting for him to pull out the theremin
deeps mered mess tbh I feel like he would enjoy theremin since it’s entirely body movement that creates the sound
Jacob doesn't need any of those instruments.
I'll listen to an entire album of Jacob just hitting the boxes in the beginning.
I just went back and listened to that. That was truly a slice of magic. 0:06
Hitting boxes. Heh
0:07 How tf did he make a box sound so goddamn
*T A S T Y*
LMFAO!!!!
it doesn't :S
"What is it? (tuning)"
JC : "It's Db, Ab, Ef, Af, Df, Ef"
3:36 -> Instantly Regrets Asking the Question.
what's Ef?
@@Gabrol E-flat. A musical note
@@junuhunuproductions so the same as Eb? I've never seen "Ef" before
@@Gabrol yeah i just made it up😉
@@junuhunuproductions 😂😂😂
I like how he slays every instrument he touch
including the boxXD
So this is what it's like when Mozart's born in the 21st century huh
Way better tho
Your comment is perfect, the best comment I've ever heard about Jacob. ♡
@@brown9671 nah
Oh shit you're right!
Nah mozart composed his first symphony when he was 8
Omg that handshake at 8:51 was a close one, but it kinda worked out!
Handshakes are scary
I bet his parents trapped him on an island since birth with every instrument known to mankind and he just escaped.
Isaiah Higgins - Sounds like a great action movie.
Not entirely untrue; he frequently tells stories about how he spent all his childhood years basically playing in this recording room full of instruments his mom has in their house. So yes, an island of sorts and an escape of sorts.
I picture him rocketing off of the island on a piano with tubas that shoot rainbows strapped to the back
Alexander Marc: An Oscar is in the works with the score being written and performed by the dexterous tentacles of this human octopus.
He plays 3 instruments
Jacob colier is just a musical teddy bear
Tarquin Kellough he is cuddly 😂
Jacob Ruxpin...
0:42 - 1:05 Even without the notes, the percussive rhythm is sick.
I know, right?
4:32 hello darkness my old friend...
🤣🤣🤣🤣you're so go to hell for this comment. His face was admiring and envious at the same time
He just questioned if his own existence is even worth something
Sound of silence😂
It's so rare to find someone so disgustingly talented that is also so lighthearted and fun to be around. A real treasure!
4:33 : "i'm nothing, really nothing"
4'33": I'm not actually nothing, contrary to what many people think
胡david nice
haha so glad someone else picked that up
Epitome of kid in a candy store
Al T I was looking for Thor comment so that I didn’t repeat it lol
*”Jacob approves top of the line instruments while the mortals around him sit in fear”*
lol
OK so he's an amazing keyboard player, fine
I bet I can still whoop him on kit though...
Nope. OK well at least I've probably got guitar over him...
Goddammit
If you practice for a couple of months you could probably best him on the drums. He's a damn music savant but his drumming is nothing special at all.
1missing yeah. Nothing against his talent at all. But his drumming isn’t something I marvel at. Now everything else he plays though.....
@Dapdoi Ardon Try "in the real early morning".
@@vanderbeats5094 Is a walk in a store man, what the fuck you pretend, lol, and "just tried to show off his speed" but is not even playing fast in most on the cases, only chilling - testing instruments, like every musician in the case. Yeah of course you could sense ego from every human, otherwise we can't even be functional, or how we know where to put food for.ex? (in my mouth, thank you ego).
Some Phaggot nice troll
He looks like a kid at Christmas and its so precious 🥹
"Hi Dave!!!"
"..My Name is Dave..pleased to meet you"
6:46 - How deep is your love / The bee gees
Wow that's incredible. I didnt even realize that until I read this.... and i was even listening to the song before I watched this video
Honestly, what the heck is that rhythm?! I know he played some crazier ones earlier, but I love the funk in this!
ITS SO GOOD
Wow you have great ears! All I was able to hear was Eleanor Rigby at 7:36
Do you know what he’s playing at 6:00 ?
00:10
The most British Jacob has ever sounded
For their prices, Yamaha honestly makes really high quality instruments. Especially their entry-level acoustic guitars.
I have one of their $500 guitars (with pickup). It's been mistreated a lot, used at the campfire and such, I was always more into the piano otherwise I would have give it more love. It's still perfectly in tune whenever I pick it up. My friend has a guitar worth the same as my car. He finds it strange as well that it still sounds good.
I had a Motif XS 8. Also quite well built, although I'm more into Nords now. Hope they wont fail me.. Nord Grand sounds unparalleled. All I need now is a sprinkling of Jacob's skill. What's that? Not possible? "Doesn't work like that" ?? :(
He's so polite.
"Nice to meet you!"
"Likewise, thank you sir!"
1:58 bruh he just sits down after asking a question and heads straight into some absurd polyrhythms im done
That's just the Purdie shuffle really fast, nothing special...
Rohin Shah Yeah you’re right bro nothing special at all
@@officialrohinmusic Doesn't sound like a Purdie Shuffle. Maybe it's the downbeat displacements?
I think he's playing a 3 over 5 polyrhythm, but don't know how he feels it, in quintuplets, triplets or even sixteenth notes maybe
@@officialrohinmusic that's not the purdie shuffle
Most instrument shops/expo workers when a normal musician walks up to their booth:
*heavy sarcasm* “Yes, please come noodle all over our gear”
When Jacob fckin Collier walks up:
*uncontainable enthusiasm* “Yes, PLEASE come noodle on this. Look over there, noodle in that! And come to this room and noodle all over these”
i could watch this all day
Such an inspirational humble guy. I really hope I can see him and meet him one day
Indeed. In another Universe deprived of instruments he would have ended up working on the shop floor of Waitrose or John Lewis charming elderly well to do customers. Bless.
3:13 perfect pitch.... Just casual stuff
I thought he only has relative perfect pitch buuuuut no. Ofc he has to have perfect pitch. I just Googled lol
@Conflux maybe to standard, but drop d flat or whatever either memory or perfect pitch
He has relative pitch, he said it in a video once. But you can reach a state, where relative pitch ist like perfect pitch, so whatever^^
didnt even realize but this bitch just tuned it by ear perfectly with note names and just like.... WHAT
Sebastian Sprotte can you link the video I’m really curious if this is true?
Jacob: have you ever played this tuning before?
Other guy: what tuning?
Jacob: Db Ab Eb Ab Db Eb
Other guy: *chokes but tries to act cool* aaahhhhh i t-tried that befo-fore a similar one lol
jacob: tunes is to Db Ab Eb Ab Db Eb, and then puts a capo on the 3rd fret...
*WHY* XD
@@movin3148 thats because he normally plays in that tuning and knows what the notes are 3 steps up
@@movin3148 and playing the same notes in a different position gave you different feelings, that's why I love capos
@@movin3148 could you hear that he actually tunes to Db Ab Eb Gb Ab Db? Thick string first…
could you hear that he actually tunes to Db Ab Eb Gb Ab Db? Thick string first…
I love how clearly respected and rightfully so this kid is.
4:08 Literally brought my phone to my ears to hear that "mystifying" sound as he did with the guitar.
this guy's a superstar. everywhere he plays, people just talk about him and listen.
Even when he was tuning down the guitar it was magical...
Alright someone get me to a practice room as fast as you can. I have some catching up to do. Might take me a couple centuries though...
I feel like Jacob forgets that he's the one making the music and gets just as excited about it as everyone listening.
That's exactly it. He's so fluent his ideas come out in music as quickly as they occur to him. He's not performing he's just bringing you along for the ride.
The ease at which he plays instruments is almost frightening. And his level of respect is on par.
6:00, half expected the mario 64 water theme.
He's on another level. He plays so fast it seems like he's just randomly pressing things that my 3 year would press, but I'm guessing in his genius mind he actually hears chords lol
He is a creator’s dream, being able to fully appreciate the thought and programming put into each instrument and to explore new avenues as well
He's not just the perfect musician, he is an amazing example of a near perfect human being in general. Guy can work a crowd like no other, probably the nicest, most sincere person I've watched on RUclips, and above all, his passion for life exudes from him uncontrollably. We should all strive to be like Jacob.
Oh believe me I do
4:57 This guy gets it. Jacob really is a beautiful enhancement to any instrument.
Ugh 2 years later and I’m still waitin/hopin for that beegees cover at 6:50 to be a release 😍
Three
i am currently working on a transcription!!!
what song is it?
people are talking technical stuff and everything and Jacob is like
just let me play some yummy music man
Imagine parents taking their children there and suddenly a guy that play every single instrument appear
the physical manifestation of music, he could do it all, and he’s just started.
5:35 what a legend
I love his Dansiki top ❤😊
When he played the acoustic guitar it sounded like a rich forest growing from a desert
I can play 7:05-7:07
Hold my beer
it's yummy
Jacob can play 0:00-9:05
Best comment
Not only can I play that as well but I can do it going up too
Watching Jacob just wander around a room of instruments is like watching a horror movie villain looking for their next weapon of choice to try out on whatever lol
"I've never played in this tuning before huh" *plays it flawlessly*
It's not Jacob Collier that shows your impressive booth, it's you who shows the ever-impressive Jacob
Dude moves from instruments in completely different families and doesn't even skip a beat. Very Talent
Me: “what instruments do you play?
Jacob:” yes”
The people are just like depressed when they see him work!!
Vincent Hübschmann depressed?
he looks annoying thats why . i bet any black man has twice the talent he has and isn't overrated
overrated? he’s arguably the best musician in terms of understanding music in this decade
King Kylie have you seen this man play?! Has nothing to do with colour he’s just really f’in good.
Hahah this troll above is in the smart section of youtube so the trolling fails no one even gets mad haha
I wonder how this man does not go crazy. I also wonder a lot how this man will age, because he has SO much energy.
6:48 I wanted to keep hearing him play How Deep is Your Love lol
Really missed the Yamaha booth at Musikmesse this year (2019). Please bring it back Yamaha.
Jacob: So this is a tuning I've never tried before
Also Jacob: *proceeds to shred away beautiful tones*
Dave: "What tuning is that?"
Jacob: *Creates a new tuning system from nothing and plays it like a god*
Dave: "Oh interesting"
I play something like that before... (hides)
lol
Damn, that's exactly how my hands/fingers looks like when playing piano, but I wonder why he sounds so amazing, while mine sound like a goat on its period.
I got to play that trans acoustic once. A rep brought one into a local music shop when it was just coming into fruition. Pretty rad instrument. Yamaha is a very innovative brand that a lot of people sort of forget about.
What a great rendition of Eleanor Rigby around 7:30 .. So effortless, just like that, what a genius
Man, watching him have so much fun is oddly motivating
lol, at 4:45 the guy shredding in the background
hahaha xD
lol, Jacob sits down and plays Stairway
Lol Hells driver thing
Bro what weed u smoking???
😂
Even the percussion of his fingers slapping the keyboard is insane
New Album by Jacob Collier entitled "Neverending Corridor" with hit single "It's a long wayyy" 9:00
ruclips.net/video/txLBQS5qBIo/видео.html
I loved how he just tuned that guitar without any reference
We not gonna talk about how this man's shirt game is consistently fuego?
his playing is amazing, but he seems just like the nicest dude ever aswell
So much cool stuff 😍
when they’re trying to talk to him while
he’s playing piano..... he is on another planet
Coming to America 2 is looking great so far
"It's a humbling experience to be confronted, with every bite, by one's own limitations." - Anthony Bourdain. God damn, that's how I feel with every note and beat that Jacob plays, but dude sure as hell makes me want to get to work.
I think Jacob is probably the most talented musician on the planet but it takes more than talent to move the heart. He's mastered the technical part of music but the emotional is still growing.
His best music is a long way away, but I can't wait for the day he makes a song everyone knows by heart.
"but I can't wait for the day he makes a song everyone knows by heart."
He probably won't. I think you really don't know what he's doing.
"but the emotional is still growing"
Ah, no. You are judging him by some bizarre standards. The emotional is VERY well developed. You just like different things. Go watch 20 or 30 of his videos. He has some wonderful stuff. But much of it is vey complex, and likely not as simple as you would like.
what a happy dude
the constant faces of the men who just feel entirely inadequate in his presence... and jacob has no idea. so humble
When he sat down at the drum kit that was just insane. Whatever he was doing on the hi hat.... (1:58)
Josh N swing in quintuplets (3:2) and alternating between 4/4 and something funky like 7/8 or other odd metre, that’ll get you pretty close
@@TAP7a isn't it just groups of 3 in quintuplets ?
That would be a simple 4/4
I have watched this video over 15 times. I still enjoy it
The tuning he puts in the guitar at 3:15 is alternatively, starting from the thickest string to the thinnest, C# G# D# F# G# C# .
Why tf did you just change it to sharps instead of just commenting what he said?
lol well it is "ALTERNATIVELY" this sequence of notes. idk much about the alternative names of notes so i just decided to comment the "sharps" in case someone was the same as me. Good question btw!
I visit this once in a while to remind myself the definition of talent.
Jacob is my hero
I don't have heroes,heroes are useless,
Honestly just hearing the rhythm on the keys is so satisfying
1:34 wtf is that editing
name haver its kinds funny ngl
He just teleports to his destination
@@hadiffnazhan862 yes
5:37 - smiling for the camera...
That lady oms!!!
i cant even comprehend how amazingly talented this guy is
