I'm 61 now and keep coming back here to make sure people are still listening to proper music ..they are🙏
Go on checking, 52 here. =)
Ha Ha that's a crack up I was thinking I was old and alone at 57 listening to great music but I'm surrounded by other geriatric legends
lol ur mom is 61
@ Bruce, is that you? 🤣
@@brucewillis542 no mate, she died last Christmas
Not only an amazing artist, Jon Hopkins is a wonderful man. A year ago I wrote to him how much his music helped me in time when I divorced.. especially when I was returning my daughters to my ex.. I was driving listening to his Immunity album and many times I had tears in my eyes. Well, he replied to me saying that he is thankful for my words and the impact his music had on me.. Not many would do something like that. He is someone with a deep heart and soul, and that is obvious in his music.
Right there with you man, press on.
i am glad you found some peace. Keep your stick on the ice, we're all in this together - Red Green
hey man, did you recovered from the heartbreak? I hope you are doing well now. :-)
this song is an antidote
Life is a journey and music makes it a more pleasant experince
10 years old. Timeless.
I still find myself coming back to it
@@SuperOMGFTWBBQ And me too. It's on the Immunity LP [WIGLP298]
Best track of the last decade for me
Oh yeah! This is transcendent
This music video is all feeling, all flow, all sensory, all coherence, no commercialism, no frills, no exaggeration, no false motives. So pure it grows on you.
The look on that young man's face is something I recognize all too well, or atleast, they picked an amazing actor
the face of living life to the fullest, enjoying it, just being in the zone. Being happy. Being in the moment. Being thankful. Enjoying right now to the fullest, and realizing it in the moment with a smile on your face.
Man, I can't wait to try LSD again. It gives me all those feelings sober. The first time I watched this was during a trip, and it had me completely zoned in studying every detail. One thing I remember clearly is thinking "he's feeling the same thing I am.. Incredibly Lucky."
🙌❤️
well put, just came back to this after yrs of not hearing it, it sounds even better, I feel the video more now, its a flow of lushness
Noticed how the first kicks that the skater do are in sinc with the beat
One of those very tracks you never get tired of listening to
I know, I feel like this beat is like a permanent part of my life. And the skateboarder with the bruised face just going and going is so beautiful.
Every once in a while, I forget about that song for a few months. Then I rediscover it, and I'm having a blast again. Simply amazing.
You should check out the remastered version, it will blow you away. Sounds so much better even
Me right now, followed by Collider
same
One of the best things I've ever heard. Electronic music at its best.
Absolutely. A masterpiece
Such a fresh perspective on electronic music. The song moves seamlessly from Eno-esque ambience to a colossal techno beast. Hopkins has produced perhaps the most subtle yet forceful pieces of music I have heard in years.
Bassline of the decade ! constantly evolves, climbs, continues on and on and on .... massive !
it's fun to badddooowapppppa dooop along with it (when no one is watching)
korg ms 20
Not MS-20.
Stunning beat there guys
its a MS20 - he used it for the whole album for the basslines
this song is timeless , 5 years since i discovered this one and still never gets old
same, listening to it every day
The snare is love, the snare is life.
I don't normally go in for quotes but watching this video with that music I finally truly understood Picaso's quote 'We all know art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realise the truth.'
the beginning of the video... where the skateboarder appears out of nowhere jumping over the fence and skates into the jon hopkins grooves…phenomenal. one of the best video + music syncs ever.
This song SLAPS forever.
the silhouette of him against the backdrop of palm trees and pink sky is beautiful stuff. absolute classic tune.
So it's been 7 years, anyone heard anything else even remotely as good as this?
Nope
Not remotely...but would love some suggestions. Anybody?
@@CajanCanuck Moderat - Therapy, The Blaze - Runaway. John Hopkins - Midnight.
jamie xx - idontknow - listen to it
Ofcrourse yes.
It's like being water...flowing ...life in front and behind... but the present soo present.. wonderful!!
this music is soul meditation... i can find myself
9 years later and I still play this video all the time. timeless
I discovered this tune back in 2014. It had a massive impact on me. I kept it on replay for days and weeks, and my taste in music has changed ever since. This tune has really shaped who I am now!
do you have any music recommendations?
It did that to me and I'm 61.
This song feels like the world pushing against itself. Loved it a decade ago. Still love it.
This track was always suggested to me on RUclips and somewhere I never found the first few seconds good enough to keep listening. Until I thought that there must be a reason why the track keeps coming up. So I gave it a chance and listened to it several times. It gets better with each listen! I love this masterpiece!
Listened to it once on LSD and my body can even remember how strong was the feeling. Beautiful song, so powerful ! 😌🙏🏽
This and colider is out of this world, amazing this is art of music
amazing. gives hope to electronic music n sound...
His remix of Disclosure - Magnets is sick aswell
Can't get enough of this.
still to this day😅
soulless as i passed your comment, i was at 2:23 .... perfect timing
@@davetinoco Good to hear. I should listen to this again, it's been a while..
A quick skate around Tahoe is always a great way to clear the mind when there's trouble at home.
This tune gets me.through the hardship of life ❤️
Happy 10-year anniversary to this incredible banger
This is one of my favourite clips and songs of all time. It's really subtle, but super powerful at the same time!
Saw him live in Edinburgh a few weeks before lockdown started, and it made up for everything else I'm going to miss this year. Genuinely the best gig I've been to, split perfectly in half between his ambient piano and tunes like this and Emerald Rush. For half the set the audience sat in enraptured silence listening to his piano. and for the other half the whole of the Usher Hall was stood up, raving. Never seen a gig like it: it was the perfect way to end my second year at uni before corona hit, so grateful.
nearly a decade old and still as fresh as it ever was ... awesome track and video!!!
I will never get over this track.
still never have enough of this!
you can't get enough
To me this song more than any other I can think of, is as if ecstasy was in music format... The peaks and troughs but also the ambience, sheeeeet it may as well be circa 2000...wild and very well done.
Jon hopkins + Moderat = best live performance
Damn, big fan of skateboarding here and just discovered Jon like 2 months ago. Can't believe Chris Chann did a video for this song. Best of both world
What an intense song, what a beautiful young man
Chris Chan!!
I'm glad 5 million people watched the future of Techno unfold right before their eyes, 5 years in advance.
Amazing song and one of the few music videos that actually improve the listening-experience.
Very true...
Easily one of the best songs of the 2010s
beauty beyond preconceptions. perfect fussion of image and sound.
This is a great track to listen to when walking for miles. Straight into the zen zone!
it's amazing how you can hear so many things in one song. how it can incite so many feelings. i see and hear freedom and liberation with the video alongside. but then i return and there's an edginess, and a solitude, even sorrow. the genius that is jon hopkins
this song always reminds me of life so complex and unpredictable but beautiful and deep
Clarice
This is soo amazing.
That main bass that seems to change and do unexpected things and the ambient sound that surrounds it....
This amazing feel you get from it...
Jon Hopkins is a true crafts men at what he makes and I give him all my respect
Chris looks and Jons music.. unique
You might think this song is simple but how it is slowly progressing is pretty genius.
An incredible song... there really aren't many songs that can make me feel the way this song makes me feel. It's like a spiritual experience
I listen to this song at least once a day. I close my eyes and off I go!!
Until about 10 years ago I worked as a bartender in a pub. Even today the patrons tell me that they came to my club for the quality of the music. Of course, Immunity was one of the most played albums.
this is one of those songs that the music video highly enhances ... i heard this song once before seeing the video and kinda liked it, but after hearing it and seeing this kid just go on and on on, i dunno something about it made me appreciate the song so much more. if you see me on the madrid metro listening to music with my eyes closed it's probably this song i'm listening to.
I have to agree with ya on that.
wtf did i just read?
So you like this song?
I know what you mean. Now when I hear this song the video plays out in my head and the combination just makes it better, like meditative.
heysatan8 I feel the same way... It's an awesome feeling!
Why do I keep coming back to this over and over and over again ......... ?????????
Because it's such a fantastic song .. all the ups and downs ... love it.
After enjoying music obsessively for 60+ years, it takes something 'special' to get my attention. This does it. Hugely!
Perpetuity of being and the will to survive.
I have no words to feel what I feel while watching this show
Gotta be filmed in Lucerne Valley, Big Bear, 29 Palms, Palm Springs, all over So-cal. Lotta memories.
Absolute jam
I had a shitty exam today and on my way home I listened to this, It gave me the feeling of moving on and never to look back. That what it meant to me at least today. Great tune indeed.
Ave Jon, ave Signal! comming back to U all the time.....
just showed this to my father. He really liked and said to me: " the landscapes of thi video looks like the ambiences of the track, and the melodie/bassline of the track represent the kid" :) ...
JSP 🤯 an astute observation
Pops totally nailed it!!!
This video is a great tour of So Cal from Lancaster to Palm Springs to 29 Palms to OC to Long Beach to Big Bear. Brings back a lot of memories.
What an entrancing video.
La liberté à...roulettes ! superbe voyage
incredible track, incredible cinematography, incredible anamorphic lenses.
Still just an animal of a choon! Always great to see live, no messing around, just banging every time! Solild! Makes me wanna Party just before 10am!
I discovered Jon Hopkins only a few weeks ago. This was after two years of not listening to any music at all, or films for that matter. It all reminded me too much of a world left behind due to Covid. This is the most beautiful, uniquely original music I have heard in years, and it inspires me to start listening and watching again in a world anew, with future possibilities beyond the present existential threats we are all facing. Jon Hopkins, I cannot thank you enough.
I love listening to this while driving electric scooter through a night city. This track's got the right energy for rolling, not in a car nor a motorcycle, but something like scooter or skateboard/longboard - maybe because of the skater boy in this video.
Best album 2013.
Absolutely miraculous track. Can't stop listening to its distortion building up...
THIS IS EPIC!
2022. Just discovered this and all I can say is WOW!
Looked like he was skating through GTA5 scenery, even holds on to Trevor's pickup towards the end. Great track!
It does look like Sandy Shores lol
the way it thumps in the intro, it's your heart racing like hell.
It's mildly terrifying that this beauty is 11 years old (as of 05.07.24). Celebrate everything, while you can.
Looks like the boy is healing while skating a long, to this slamming track!! Miles high
did the best snowboard run of my life listening to this
Great track for highspeeding in the night, when you're driving alone.Addictive.
I feel like that part at the end is symbolic for walking through dark places in life. And in the big picture there is more beauty than there is not.
O God, what a tune, especially when thst Techno bass kicks in after 6 mins. Thanks Jon.
Absolutely hypnotizing track
Best song ever !!!
One of the best music videos of all time.
I've heard this song long time ago (3-4 years back) on one of the John Digweed's sets... maybe even on Proton show. Then I've searched for the song on yt cause I loved it very much... as time past on I forgot the name of the song and now almost 3-4 years later I'm re-united with this masterpiece.
The best electronic music ever and wherever.
I get so lost in this track in the best most beautiful way
Really classy and amazing piece
Literally I can feel intensity around Ajna after listening to this
if i was a DJ, this would be my closing tune every time without question, big up Hopkins.
Just discovered this... time to listen to his other albums
fantastic album
I love this song.
Me encanta la melancolía que me transmite tu música y este video oficial ❤
PURE AND UTTER GENIUS ...
6 years from this masterpiece.
I LOVE this song
Have loved this song for years, 'been freakin watchin Chris Chann's vlogs for weeks now, So trippy when the two come together like some sort of scavenger hunt
You are a genius and this is song is a timeless banger 💣💣💣
I didn't think it was possible for this tune to get any better. Then i got to 6:00
I was yesterday at Jon Hopkins' concert in Brussels, at the Ancienne Belgique. It was freaking amazing. He only played for an hour or so, but it felt like ten seconds and ten hours at the same time. His music is mesmerizing.
