I love that I'm not the only drummer that plays without shoes on! It's so comfy and it gives you a better feel of the kit. My friends all make fun of me for it, but not anymore because they love this band
I had the honor of meeting him after their show a few years back and he is incredibly down to earth as well... The conversation we had felt like talking to an old friend I had never met.
They are playing near me soon. I've always wanted to see them live but I don't think this drummer is playing with them anymore. Not sure if I'm that interested without him being there.
@@CentiZenNot anymore, I think that they had a disagreement and he left. They usually play with local drummers whenever they do shows if I remember right.
@@heartsutra123 actually, James and Michael were having problems, and he no longer wanted to continue being in the band if Michael were to stay. Wenzl drafted a new contract with Michael to promise him that he wouldn't get kicked out, pissing off James, which caused him to quit.
U guys rock. I remember the first time I saw u playing in the nyc tubes. The drummer was cooking. I play clarinet and have been considering a second instrument. I'm torn btw bass clarinet and sax
Tenor has a perfect mix of alto and Bari - really clear highs and some dirty, meaty lows, really fun for jamming in. I value a lot of my personal instruments in 'jam-ability', more or less how many different ways can it be played. Bass clarinet I find is limited, you cant do as much because of its naturally warmer, rounder tone, though if you've seen Daro from the Lucky Chops smash it you'll find it can get a tiny bit harsher. You can find what Im talking about in Moon Hooch's Contra Dubstep. All in all, get some consultation on how to learn. I've been playing far too long to remember how I started out, and Im far from a teacher, the only thing I can say for sure is start right, get good habits early, find a good teacher. You're already a muso so you'll find the transition much easier, and you'll be rocking in no time.
Hey bro, you seem to know a lot about this stuff, i picked up a tenor sax about a month ago and have made decent-ish progress, though i feel like my learning is patchy. Any idea as to some good books to get?
Old american horns have a distinct sound and power that is hard to find nowadays, Michael plays on a conn 10m, arguably on the top 5 of american horns, and considering that this band is all about the sound it fits that that he'd choose such a horn.
I personally play an old king super 20. From the early 70s. Bolder horns are just the move unless you play a keilworth. Those seem to be the only new horns that compare
I can't tell if it's just this recording but there's something about this that could be better. The energy feels like they are just covering someone else's song. The pieces are there though
Really strong drum backbone, kept in time perfectly. The syncopation revers drop rests are very unpredictable. Near the end the sax solo's where getting too much to handle, similar starting and beginnings made them kinda boring. Ending with I believe is the perfect 7th (i dont have perfect pitch im just making a guess) was kinda risky, some people may enjoy it a lot, for me I think it implys a lazyness to the end. But I really liked it defiantly wanna check you guys out some more.
You are analyzing this as a "pop song", this is dubstep with saxes, the idea of the music is the repetition of catchy melodies for people to dance. And about the end it ends on the upbeat, it never resolves, the idea is to finish with an unresolved disonance, no one hears that, it's a common ending for songs to end like that.
I love that I'm not the only drummer that plays without shoes on! It's so comfy and it gives you a better feel of the kit. My friends all make fun of me for it, but not anymore because they love this band
The drummer is focus, commitment and sheer will.
I really like this band! The drummer though, fucking amazing. Intensity. Sustained intensity. This band is really really fun.
look at his face at 3:31 lmao
Agreed

New York's alright.........If you like Saxophones
New York is the place for me.
Nice fear reference 👏
Wow. 5 years later this response is still a classic.
Took me a minute to realize I have the exact same tenor. Good taste!
MOON HOOCH IS GONNA BLOW THE FUCK UP NEXT YEAR, I FEEL IT!
No doubt about it. What would be awesome is if they were invited to play at Austin City Limits. Then they would REALLY blow up!
They are so good. I can't believe!
*BELIEVE*
This song has insane energy live. Just saw em pérform it last night; blew my mind. Please put this out soon!
How was the concert?
It was fantastic dude, they're on another level
Good news! They just released this song and two others as an album! Go check it out!
Aahhh...
This drummer. His eyes...
Great!
The drums are so good! So much more exciting than "drums" from a keyboard.
Gorgeous! 😊
Amazing to see the MH drummer rocking a tiny whitney penguin kit - with groove and chops like that - who needs a massive 20 piece kit?
PikeyAlchemist he's so good its unreal. One of the best drummers in a long time.
i dont have grooves and chops like that so can i get a 20pc kit please
James Muschler is a mushroom-hunting wild man.
@@ThePlasticJones that is perhaps the best description of James that I have seen.
I keep coming back to this song for 2:25 - 3:05 its just so smooth and melodic , I could listen to it all day long
I come for the roughness that is 3:10 onwards
My favorite band! :]
James is one of the best drummers out. Period.
And now he is out =(
bbrr00zz the drummer is probably the most talented member of the band. Why is he out of the band? Interpersonal conflict?
@@heartsutra123 He said he wanted to explore other music projects.

Bradly Jay Keller He and Mike, the Tenor, had a falling out. It was pretty bad apparently.
Love how they play the sax 🧡🧡
Oh hellz yes! Always so good, thank you guys!!
Plz create more I enjoy these!!!
Badass! 👏
oh my fucking god this song is amazing. I just keep coming back to it and every time it bangs so hard
I love Moon Hoch...
Moon Hooch is fantastic ! love
Amazing new song!
i love you guys
"fuck man I hit my stick on that last fill" -kickin it at bedford
Very Very Very good!
Awesome!
I prefer this version over the studio one.
Olha meninos arrasaram
everything about the band is my vibe
U guys rock. I remember the first time I saw u playing in the nyc tubes. The drummer was cooking. I play clarinet and have been considering a second instrument. I'm torn btw bass clarinet and sax
Tenor/ Bari sax are both insanely fun to play ;)

You're already a muso so you'll find the transition much easier, and you'll be rocking in no time.
Definitely choose sax
Hey bro, you seem to know a lot about this stuff, i picked up a tenor sax about a month ago and have made decent-ish progress, though i feel like my learning is patchy. Any idea as to some good books to get?
Dont do bari , tenor is pretty good . Alto is the best tho :) you can play anything on that
is it part of their aesthetic to have well loved instruments
jack Odoyle both of em just happen to play on older horns; part of playing preference I guess. I know Michael plays on a old famous sax players horn

I like their hats
Nice
The drummer is on the money, their all great and super precise, but damn.
Круто!

FUCK YEAH MOON HOOCH! GET IT
The tenor guy is uncomfortably still in this vid
ninininice
moon hooch reminds me of Morphine from the 90's, but better!
I wouldn't say better, they're totally different...
Olha meninos mataram a pau é isso aí garoto
👍👍👍
What are the notes for the bari
Заебок/ zaebis👍🏻
Does anyone know what mouthpiece Wenzl is using in this video?
Horizonn I think its a Jody Jazz classic baritone sax mouthpiece in red.
It's a red Runyon
Where are the cones?
does anybody know what type of tenor they use.
Vintage Conn Tenor, Selmer Mark VI bari
Red Runyon!!!
Green The bean thought it was a Runyon as well!

Have a Beer on Anthony. England
What... this sounds like its recorded with an iphone or something... and as if they are playing in my neighbor's house.
Is the bari player's ligature a rubber band and a piece of leather
it does seem that way
Looks like Michael's using a Drake, anyone know what model?
My guess is a Jerry Bergonzi Master Series, but don't quote me on that...
@@stephenpayes8162 I emailed Mr. Drake himself and he believes it's an NY Jazz
TOTALLY FUCKING RAD!
josh, bladeofgrass
HOLY FUCK
HOLY FUCK
NO COMMENT FROM AN ITALIAN TRUMPET PLAYER
HOLY FUCK
Bari puffy cheeks lol
I can't tell if it's just this recording but there's something about this that could be better. The energy feels like they are just covering someone else's song. The pieces are there though
TacoDude314 the mix is shit, also I’m sure they have some post effects in recording like reverb.
All they're missing is a sick keys player

Drummer sucks
