    Holy fuck that last freestyle 57:00. That may have been a level up. Girls at the Guggenheim and now this. It doesn’t matter what anyone thinks or claims, you are the absolute without a doubt the greatest freestyle rapper that will ever exist.

    That closing freestyle was maybe one of the illest off top freestyles ever recorded. 4+ minutes of flawless double time with cadence switches to a live improvised drum beat!? That was unbelievable.

  • @michaels9595
    @michaels9595 Месяц назад +18

    This is the best drums Harry has freestyled over so far! Harry drumming for himself excluded, of course.
    Daru is a beast! So amazing to hear about his process, come up, and outlook on Flow State / the Anointing.

  • @paulwhetstone0473
    @paulwhetstone0473 Месяц назад +11

    Alright, two beasts in one studio! My new favorite drummer is Daru Jones. There was absolutely nothing to not love in his musicianship. His use of silence around and in between the flow was the best I’ve ever heard. He never got in the way of H Mack’s flow and he plays so much with so little as only a brilliant craftsman can. I’ll definitely check out his snl segments with Jack White. Harry, it goes without saying, crushed the living hell out of those two freestyles. The same can be said for the interview.

    I listened to this podcast in iTunes but after hearing this opening freestyle and drum solo I had to come to RUclips to see this in person…
    Mack just never misses, and this freestyle was so fresh with such a simple and smooth drum beat behind it… 👏👏👏👏👏

  • @bazbeat
    @bazbeat Месяц назад +1

    one thing that blew me away with the dilla/daru timing was the opposite off-grid drum placements. hiphop used to be with a late snare like with 70s funk grooves, and then with the wonky feel its more way ahead snare and kick and late hats. and then the "mistake" kick hits that hits the WOOO spot! ouf! that kick that hits in the most wrong spot always hit me hard! always wanted to hear what daru had to say about those way ahead kik/snare hits. haha, soo precious bump. trying for years to replicate that feel with drum programming i finally figured out it works best to actually just be abit drunk when playing live drums, lol. big inspiration mister daru! daru & rena! reggie b & daru! favorite albums

Everyone should conduct themselves like these two individuals, the world would be such a great place to be.🙏🏾

    Daru is a great example of how being flashy doesn't necessarily mean being good. Another drummer who perfects the minimalist approach is DJ from Khruangbin.

      Check out a Mozambiquan rapper named "Aza Gaia". Sadly he is no longer with us...yet his music is fire af. Probably even better if u speak portoguese.

    • @py_a_thon
      @py_a_thon Месяц назад

      Aza Gaia literally translates to "javellin" or something similar I think.
      If you trace that back far enough tho I think it means: "Javellin for the Earth" (OR maybe "javellin FROM the earth")
      Fire music. Thank me later. IF you do not speak portaguess...then I guess you should find the subtitled music videos.

      The so called J Dilla style is honestly quite difficult. The only way I can understand that is via Aphex Twin and concept of flim/flam and variable tempo.
      That Oppenheimer movie track "Can You Hear the Music" is exceptional. The amount of tempo variation is fire, and very difficult to understand let alone play properly-ish.

    • @py_a_thon
      @py_a_thon Месяц назад +2

      Basically you have to view tempo as a (physical) sine wave; and time signature as an equation. Particles and waves ...
