Then we’re classmates too! I was just watching Tank and the Bangaz Tiny Desk and realized ‘yo, that’s that cool guy’s high school band!” Look at those Cola kids making waves.
Right?! I went RV too and we had PE together...such a nice and funny kid. I had no clue he was a famous artist until my little sister told me. So now I'm researching his work.
Man, big same! I couldn't stop smiling all throughout. Chaz just has such a genuine, happy kind face and eyes; every time he smiles I can't help but smile as well :))
@@seneca4ever It's a lyric from his song "Girl Like You". Pellegrino is a type of mineral water that usually comes in glass bottles and as you can tell from the lyrics, his ideal preference in consuming it, is straight from the bottle- no cup. of course.
I love Chaz’s work. Every new album. Every new sound. He’s like my musical soulmate. Also, very sweet. Noticed me vibing front row of one of his concerts and directly handed me the set list. Love him for that
Everything about this performance is amazing! I love his voice, lyrics and genuine warmth that he radiates. Also, nice shoutout to Cazadero. The band is wonderful too. Such a different experience hearing these songs stripped down and raw. Thanks, Tiny Desk. You’ve done it again.
I love his sweet voice!! What a great musician, lyricists, artist, creator and producer he is. Toro y Moi has been my favorite during the last year, pretty much ever since I discovered him. I love him ❤️. He is one of the greatest music legends of our generation guys!
Love how that mantra gains steam through the performance: "I want a brand new house; something I cannot buy, something I can't afford." It gets sillier and realer the more you say it, the independent clauses intertwining and feeding back on each other.
Toro is a guaranteed vibe! 😌 love how they dip into different sounds with each coming project, yet keep their same underlying essence. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
"Live from trona" [no excuses if I am incorrect] is a mix of a couple songs here and there on a few albums with his synth replaced by piano and guitar, Czech it out!!
I love Tiny Desk amazing guest on this show, I'm fan of most of the artists that been on here. Toro y Moi is amazing his singing voice remind me of Miguel and Steve Lacy.
So happy Chaz is doing well. Anything in Return was the second album I ever closely watched and anticipated months leading up to the release (after 'Shrines' by Purity Ring the year before), and it's great he's continued doing amazing stuff. This album, Soul Trash, Boo Boo, he's been killing it. He was my favorite artist through early college until I over-listened to his music and switched to Born Ruffians, but even with my tastes shifting more to The Mountain Goats and King Gizzard, Chaz is still in my heavy plays. Deservedly so.
I've know Toro Y moi for years , glad to know that he's gaining some notoriety finally....hes very talentedand creative therefore he deserves all of the best things in the world...
This is an incredible band, exceptional talent with an amazing and eclectic sound. What i really love is they always, no matter what they play, manage to keep the mood light and sunny, with a cool breeze.
thanks for having us and enjoy !
Good vibes.
Come to Chile please:(( te quiero mucho
Great set, y'all! When I escape south Arkansas imma come find you live!
CAN’T WAIT TO SEE U LIVE IN SINGAPORE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Toro y Moi no! Thank you
It's cool to see your high school classmate have a blossoming career and seeing the growth over the past decade. Kudos to you Chaz.
That's unreal
its cool that he's local to Columbia!

Hipsters know good music, I'll give them that :-P
I love his music, but I also wanted to say that he’s very cute.
Absolutely. I don't think I am attracted to guys, but boy is he a handsome one.
voice and lyrics so flat tho
@@surgodt that's what they all say
Please get hiatus kaiyote and vulfpeck to do tiny desk.
vulfpeck would be insane
hiatus!!!!!
Haitus would be amazing for tiny desk! Luckily I’m seeing them on Friday
and peach pit maybe, or please
I second that!
It just confirms how well these songs are written when they sound this good without synth and such.
that’s exactly how I feel! What a shame. I actually skipped his songs on Spotify before.
Yup, behind all those computer generated sounds and such, there’s some beautiful chords and stuff behind it
I think it’s way better this way
I truly agree
@@Whiteplumee me too
I love Toro y Moi, he manages to keep it fresh with every release and his work is prolific, man works hard. Respect.
Alex Blogg Spot on, long live this man
Toro y Moi is the group. Lead vocalist name is Chaz.
@@thamamukumela9514 haha, yeah I spotted that after I commented. Chaz basically makes Toro y Moi though right?
@@thamamukumela9514 Toro Y Moi is a solo project, Chaz just performs live as a band.
Thama Mukumela thank you for saying this. Toro Y Moi is the whole band. Chaz is the vocalist. All of these guys are dope.
NPR is confirmation that we have good taste in music.
indeed
Facts
Ѯ Aww. Thanks. I’m actually not snobby or hip but your comment makes me feel like I’m on the right track.
Defund NPR.
An acoustic version of all these songs should be released, esp New House! 10/10
Cameron Barnes agreed!
New House is absolutely gorgeous in this version!
Toro a goat but s/o's to the audio engineers for this one
Antonio Velazquez facts it’s coming out of my system really clean and the clarity is amazing
Right!
the shakers sound so beautiful :o
The mixing is insane!!!
rarely do u see engineers get this much love in RUclips comments lol. "YO THIS MASTERING GOES HARD AF 😤"
I dont know what it is about “new house” that does something to my soul, even the original version, so simple, yet so...ahhhhhh
Chaz out here making that hipster trap music.
like trying to be ironic, or not?
It’s “indie hipster trap vibe art noises”
Yes
You know that feeling you get when you see a friend and it just makes you smile. I get that every time.
Man, big same! I couldn't stop smiling all throughout. Chaz just has such a genuine, happy kind face and eyes; every time he smiles I can't help but smile as well :))
And the Funk shall be within you.
*🐶🌈 puppies & rainbows 🌈🐶*

He looks and sounds like he could love me so sweetly.
Reality's tight
when the music is right
:)

Ain't no reason to fight ❤
This man is Just BEAUTIFUL!!! Inside AND Out!
I want him to take me to a cofee place where we will discuss about our feelings and about love.
Desveaux Valentin yea!
😂 jc
this is so wholesome
Quit being so gay .....ok?
Luis _ fuck off luis
The sound is SO CLEAN!
tiny desk engineers are LEGENDARY
James Murphy is playing at my house... my house
Proceeds to sing about wanting to buy a brand new house 🤔😂
I met him at...Coachella.
All rare shit, from Flying Dutchman...
Love that reference, he even sings it like James would
Child voice ...all we need that...👍👍🙏🙏
I’m cracking open a Pellegrino right now! From the bottle, no cup of course.
my man
What mean this
@@seneca4ever It's a lyric from his song "Girl Like You". Pellegrino is a type of mineral water that usually comes in glass bottles and as you can tell from the lyrics, his ideal preference in consuming it, is straight from the bottle- no cup. of course.
You rebel 💋
Hell yeah nigga, turn up.
I just can’t get over the sound quality of every Tiny Concert I’ve heard...and that’s pretty much every one of them!!
It's easy to set your levels in small spaces.
Why does this not have 1 million views yet? gosh this man deserves tens of millions... a legend in the mist
I still come back to this as one of my favorite Tiny Desks. ❤️
I want to cry everytime I listen to New house, and this acoustic version is really overwhelming me
I feel exactly the same. So many songs sound far better when they are played in front of a tiny desk...
The piano reminds me of japanese jazz-hop, i would die for a version with sax on it.
we need a Solange tiny desk
Felipe Jadue Halabi In her recent live shows, she tends to squat a lot... I’d love to see her sing and squat on a desk 😂
A SOTC tiny desk
YES YES AND YES
Drums are so crisp, everyone's in sync, pleasure to watch
So glad hes on this show, Ive been a fan of toro y moi for many years
Outer peace and anything in return are two of my favorite albums of all time
I love Chaz’s work. Every new album. Every new sound. He’s like my musical soulmate. Also, very sweet. Noticed me vibing front row of one of his concerts and directly handed me the set list. Love him for that
The pianist, Anthony Ferraro, is also known as Astronauts, etc. Great stuff 😌
Thought he looked familiar, interesting!
No wonder he’s so fire
DID NOT KNOW THAT!!
Yuppp!! Dude is fire, hope me make more music soon.
Thanks for the recommendation. I dig it.
chaz’s voice is so light and clear i adore it
One of my best discoveries of the 2010’s, Toro y moi
Chaz is the kind of guy to do a group project and not put his name on it. This guy seems super humble. Keep it up guys!
0:05 - Laws of the Universe
3:39 - New house
6:07 - Freelance
10:20 - Ordinary Pleasure
This is my 1st time hearing this music and its timeless.
Never realized til now how much Chaz's voice sounds like Rivers Cuomo's.
No dis.
Awesome hearing such a stripped down version of Toro y Moi!
Except that Rivers can sing
cant unhear anymore
his early work is heavily influenced by weezer
@@devontewilson216 honestly river's singing on his tiny desk was a lot worse than this performance. IMO at least.
What the fuckkkkk
That’s the funkiest upright piano!
Chaz's energy is contagious
How in the world... I opened RUclips thinking hey, I'd quite like to hear Toro y moi rn and there he was! First video! On tiny desk! What
Did the same happen to all of you or like why am I getting all the likies ^^
Dude same
Isn't that just so cool when that happens
I am listening it 10 times a day, cuz my 2yo daughter asks me.
She is like "Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh" all day. :D
My 3 year old daughter is hooked on the Idles tiny desk. She runs around saying "concrete to leather!" All day
Lol im hooked right now to idles and toro y moi, and my 3 year son sings that same toro & moy bit
Wow. The PIANO guy is spectacular!! He plays with passion!
These songs are great. I love when heavily-produced music is stripped down this way--it really shows whether the music can stand on its own.
Did he just reference Prometheus and Bob?!! Outstanding.
That’s me playing percussion at the end 🙏🏾
Check out FootsXColes
🙌🏻💪🏻
Cowboys Nation TV 👏🏻👏🏻
you killed it!!!
ayyy
So in love with this, Toro y Moi always manages to keep fresh, impressive to see him on tiny desk
I love the rhinestones on under his eyes - he looks so cute!!
A loooooook
like fctories far away
Everything about this performance is amazing! I love his voice, lyrics and genuine warmth that he radiates. Also, nice shoutout to Cazadero. The band is wonderful too. Such a different experience hearing these songs stripped down and raw. Thanks, Tiny Desk. You’ve done it again.
WILL SOMEONE PLEASE MOVE THAT DISTRACTING JARJAR BINKS PAINTING?
it's hard to NOT focus on it
If you into the music you won’t notice it
It's a Taco Bell Frisbee iirc
Joe Mac Supa Chef misa don’t think so!
Joe Mac Supa Chef Meesa thinks you love Jar Jar Binks secretly
Never noticed it.
Mac Demarco, please!!! New album on May 10th 2019.
I second this 1000x
Yeah but he if he doesn’t play any songs from that album...
I love his sweet voice!! What a great musician, lyricists, artist, creator and producer he is. Toro y Moi has been my favorite during the last year, pretty much ever since I discovered him. I love him ❤️. He is one of the greatest music legends of our generation guys!
YOOOOOOOO TORO Y MOI IS IN TINY DESK
Love how that mantra gains steam through the performance: "I want a brand new house; something I cannot buy, something I can't afford." It gets sillier and realer the more you say it, the independent clauses intertwining and feeding back on each other.
This has me on straight Rose Quartz.
*I feel weak uh huh*
Chaz still hasn't gotten changed from Coachella
He gonna change after Tierno Galván
Toro is a guaranteed vibe! 😌 love how they dip into different sounds with each coming project, yet keep their same underlying essence. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
no u dont understand this is a human sunshine and that smile is making me melt
Guy on piano is from Astronauts etc. awesome band too.
I love them sm
i thought i recognized him!
Man for all the electronic type beats on their album, they sound really good in a live setting. Props to the audio engineers too.
I was never really a fan of Toro, but damn, I love the unplugged sound. I wonder if he's done any albums without his heavy production style.
"Live from trona" [no excuses if I am incorrect] is a mix of a couple songs here and there on a few albums with his synth replaced by piano and guitar, Czech it out!!
He's got some acoustic songs that aren't on spotify, but I have no idea where to find them :(
Look for some bootleg material, it should be somewhere on the internet
What For and Mahal might be what you're looking for. Also Live From Trona like someone else said is like this set up but better
Mahal for sure
This is my new favorite tiny desk concert.
Upbeat and energetic music full of life, thank you!
Freelance had me dancing up out of my seat !!! Chaz’s energy during this whole concert was contagious for sure ! ✌️✨
Toro’s work is so amazing. Seeing them here is even more exciting. Love from Colombia.
I still bump “soo many details” at least once a week. A perfect song
I don't... and then the piano started playing.. That was dope, what a smooth transition!
I'm no bassist but the bass lines on these songs are 🔥🔥🔥 grooves for days.
just clicked on this while my Netflix was loading. Stayed until the end. Awesome!!
Well this was just delightful, and clear evidence Chaz didn't need all that electronic stuff to sound great...dude's talent is RAW 🌟
I love Tiny Desk amazing guest on this show, I'm fan of most of the artists that been on here. Toro y Moi is amazing his singing voice remind me of Miguel and Steve Lacy.
James Murphy is playing in my house, nice one! He really does
Recently discovered their music, love it

I'm obsessed with this performance.

PLEASE
I have been SCREAMING at anybody with a ear lob about Alfa Mist. Also Yussef Dayes, Mansur Brown, and FKJ! Get them all on NPR Tiny Desk please!!!!
Toro y moi will go down as timeless.
Perfect way to have started my morning
So happy Chaz is doing well. Anything in Return was the second album I ever closely watched and anticipated months leading up to the release (after 'Shrines' by Purity Ring the year before), and it's great he's continued doing amazing stuff.

Quirky but I like these guys! I could see listening to them while bbq'ing in the backyard this summer... 👏👏👏
*🐶🌈 puppies & rainbows 🌈🐶*
These dudes are dope. Check out all their songs
They've got an awesome back catalog for you to discover! Personally, "Anything in Return" is my favorite album.
I love new house but i wish we got it with his normal voice like here because good lord its so beautiful live
I just discovered this guy today. He’s pretty cool.
It's a blessing
I just discovered u today and your just as cool 😉
Can we have alan palomo aka neon indian on here?!
Paulaine Sano I’m dying to see Neon Indian too!! Praying hard they will be performing here😭😭
not sure if you have seen this, but this is a pretty old live performance they did at KEXP - ruclips.net/video/0sf6DM-30DA/видео.html

wish they played 50-50 and baby drive it down, but this is still beautiful and i am still grateful
dynamic between keys and bass is monumental. singer kills. one of the best i’ve heard on npr. bring back that disco baby, in an intellectual mastery.
