    I've always loved to hear Sly play drums ever since the early 80's. This is phenomenal, he holds it together as the groove develpos and stops it disintegrating as it builds in intensity AWESOME feel on that kick and snare

    Watching this on a low dose of LSD. Everything about this seems perfect. Every note is being played at the exact right time. Music is so fascinating. It's not about playing as fast as you can or getting to the end of a song quicker than others. It's just about being there in the moment, enjoying every sound at the time it is played. Really enjoying it, feeling like a zen monk!

    Molvær was born and raised on the island of Sula, Møre og Romsdal, Norway, and left at age nineteen to study on the Jazz program at Trondheim Musikkonservatorium (1980-82).[6] He joined the bands Jazzpunkensemblet with Jon Eberson and Masqualero, alongside Arild Andersen, Jon Christensen and Tore Brunborg. Masqualero (named after a Wayne Shorter composition originally recorded by Miles Davis) recorded several albums for ECM Records, and Molvær recorded with other ECM artists before his 1997 debut solo album, Khmer. The record was a fusion of jazz, rock, electronic soundscapes, and hip-hop beats - and quite unlike the delicate "chamber jazz" typically associated with ECM.[7] Molvær's muted trumpet sound, sometimes electronically processed, had an obvious debt to Miles Davis's work of the 1970s and 1980s, but without being a slavish copy. For the first time, ECM released singles - "Song of Sand", backed with three remixes, and "Ligotage". In 2000, a second album followed, Solid Ether, after which Molvær left ECM. He has recorded several albums since, and has also produced film and theater music.[3][4]
    He often works with guitarist Eivind Aarset. He has also played with Tabla Beat Science created by Zakir Hussain and Bill Laswell.[5]

      Fantastic find! Thank you for posting, Dev Art.
      The song at 23:57 is the drum and bass riddim from 1977 reggae classic, Armagideon Time by Willie Williams.
      The vocal song at 56:53 is an old time reggae spiritual standard first recorded in 1977 by The Abyssinians called Satta Massagana and covered by many Jamaican artists. I'm sure most everyone in Jamaica can sing along. The words are from the ancient Amharic language and meaning to give praise. Robbie just sings the opening line, "There's a land far, far away..."
      Robbie's bass solo is another recognizable riddim from a '70's era reggae song but unfortunately I can't remember the name of it at the moment.
      And the last song is indeed called No, No, No by Dawn Penn. At 1:26:51 and again at 1:28:31 Robbie uses his bass to recreate the bridge passage from Dawn Penn's 1994 version. Sometimes horns are used for this fill and sometimes piano.
      The song was originally written and released in 1960 by a blues harmonica player named Willie Cobbs. Dawn Penn originally released the song in 1967 and it didn't do all that much outside Jamaica but under the tutelage of Jamaican producing team Steely & Clevie, her 1994 re-release of the song became a world-wide hit.
      Now as to the bass line, Coxsone Dodd's Studio One house band called Sound Dimension supplied the backing track for the 1967 version so it was either Boris Gardiner or Leroy Sibbles that wrote the bass part, which on this version was so far back in the mix that you almost need headphones to hear it. It's here on youtube if you want to hear it.
      In 1994 Steely & Clevie made an album based on old Studio One singles but instead of a house band, used a drum machine and digital bass (it was cheaper and by this time the electro sounds of what's called dancehall style had become the latest thing) on the recording so we have them to thank for placing the ever so simple but ever so catchy bass line forward in the mix, but fact is, nobody actually played bass on the version that became the big hit.
      In the early years of reggae, the studios owned the compositions, not the actual composers (house bands) who got paid a day rate. (Yeah, that sucked.) What this allowed the studios to do is find out which riddims proved to be most popular at the weekly sound systems (Live DJs with giant speakers that set up and played on street corners around Kinston) and then use the same riddims over and over with different singers and different lyrics, thereby making even more money off the backs of the musicians who wrote it.
      Again, you will find many versions of No No No if you search. Here is the basic riddim track. ruclips.net/video/OPWvwbRUG6E/видео.html
      Another market for profiting from the same popular riddims was to add a "rap" vocal and release it again or put it on the "b" side of the vocal single. I put the word rap in quotes because rap technically didn't exist as a world recognized genre in the 70's... but rhythmically rhyming over popular riddims in Jamaica did, and it was called "toasting the tracks." and the popular people who made careers of it were called toasters or DeeJays.
      Big Youth, U-Roy, I-Roy, Lone Ranger, Tony Tuff, Prince Fari, Dr. Alimantodo, Michigan and Smiley, Mikeey Dread, these were some of the biggest earning toasters in the seminal period. Later came Yellowman, Shaggy Shabba Ranks, Shinehead, Eek-a-Mouse, Tappa Zukie, Bounty Killer, Beenie Man, Lady Saw.
      There are whole new crop out today of course but I am not as familiar with their names or their music, Chronix, Mikey Shamaya are the only two that come to mind. Guess I'd better bone up.
      But my point is that what we call rap music today got its start in Jamaica in 1970 when the deejays who manned the sound systems would turn the vocal side of the 45 record over where what was called the "dub version" (or simply "version" ) which was the same riddim as the vocal but without the vocal, and often goosed up by the recording engineers with echo, dropouts, sound effects, etc. The dee jays would then live toast over the version side, creating the first rap music.
      When records from Jamaica were brought to New York and played in Caribbean neighborhoods it caught the attention of hip hop creators like Cool Herc who saw the potential for this storytelling format that wasn't singing but used music as its backdrop.
      To cop a line from The Daily Show's Trevor Noah, "So if you didn't know, now you do." :-)
