Yeah, checking out Cory Wong is gonna be a whole journey! He’s a hell of a rhythm guitar player, and play, records and tours with the best crew ever. This collab from 2020 or so was done in the midst of COVID, lockdowns, etc. Cory and the the Loops had never met then, but decided to do an album together. ‘Turbo’ is the result, and it’s complete nuts. Bath bands recorded and filmed on two different continents: the Loops in Sweden, Cory and his horns in the US. They made the stage look alike, with the same props, lighting angles etc. Then Aron, the drummer, edited all the visual footage together. Cory’s horns are partially made up of members of the famous Hornheads, a session band who played, recorded and toured with many greats, including Prince (who coined the name ‘Hornheadz). As you’ve said, every musician there is stellar in his or her own right. Worth checking all of them out, too. When watching this vid again, catch that moment during the instrumental ‘Disney’ middle section, when Jonah puts on his Stevie glasses 😎 Also when the horn section switches instruments… Jonah’s vocals, on this track, are very MJ-like, and simply out of this world, I find. So is Henrik’s cool bass riff and Aron’s monster drumming. I’m glad you checked out this one ☺️ Next try “Follow The Light” and “Turbo” from the same collab album👍🙏✌️
The funk hits all the right places here. So glad you were able to enjoy this! Yes, Dirty Loops often has such fun outro credits ... That killer brass section; most of them were with Prince. They're with Cory in his productions.
How ´bout the 12/8 shuffle beat intead of the original 4/4...ingenious! I read somewhere that Dirty Loops recorded their video in Stockholm and Cory and his fabulous (Prince) horns in Minneapolis! Love this so much! 💙💛 💜
Just got my tickets for one of their shows in november - counting the days! Classic Dirty Loops humor in the credits - always make me smile.... You should definitely check out more of Cory Wongs stuff too...
This is the only MJ cover I like even more than the original. Freakin' love this shuffle groove, the arrangement, bass, horn interlude, everything! Thanks for the reaction.
Fun facts: The Cory Wong band horn section is actually the “Horn Heads” who backed up Prince. Also, for every video and the entirety of the recording section, the Cory Wong band is in Minnesota, while Dirty Loops recorded in Stockholm. Also, that is, to my knowledge, the only use of a double-belled euphonium in a pop song. Cory Wong was formerly with a group called Vulfpeck before getting his own band together.
fiddlestix3025 got everything right. Cory and the Hornheads (not their actual group name) recorded at Prince's Paisley Park Studios in my home state……Minnesota (Minneapolis). I recorded their often - studio musician/keys - AGES ago, never met Prince, but what a beautiful studio he built from the proceeds of the movie Purple Rain. I'd heard it is now a museum honoring the memory of Prince. Not sure if it's still a functioning recording studio anymore, but one of the recording stages was large enough for an entire orchestra designed to record his film scores. Dirty Loops is unparalleled in my eyes……brilliant doesn't cover the depth of their talents. Obviously Cory and the Horns are on that level as well.
It takes a good pair of headsets to actually hear Cory´s part, unfortunately. I haven´t had that before and always thought his playing didn´t come through. Sounds great! That constant plucking. Very nice, and contrasting in a nice way to the bass grove. Moves the energy forward.
@@TheFixsInn i'm usually susceptible to imbalance that affects my enjoyment but I must say I didn't think about it till I read this...but then I like DL up loud so maybe just liked this particular imbalance :)

A keyword for Dirty Loops - except for the obvious JOY - is RESPECT. How they do their thing, and then let the brass section shine too. Love it!

Wow, super interesting, Cody 😯

These guys are dope. But the bass is a beast..

You can hear some more MJ from Jonah in his solo project BAD. ruclips.net/video/3mK1smj5rzQ/видео.htmlsi=v-Vd7bBv9lOUlCbt
Jonah’s Bad is 🔥🔥🔥
Check your mic level, way under the music...
Are you talking about the very end during the music. I did that on purpose. Any one else have issues?
@@zack_reacts Nah it seemed like the whole thing was vocal low audio high. No worries, probably me 🥴
I didn't have issues but am accustomed to hearing you so that may make it more readily understandable.
