He's kinda just playing triplet shuffle.its not a polyrythm because all the beats he is playing are timed directly with his accented cymbal work and on a count he is playing 3 notes to a beat. He messes up on the first break to the chorus major but puts it right. Then sets into 44 goes straight then back to triplet shuffle which is basically called eight note triplets.
@@alexstephen5695 Yeah, I don't know what polyrhythm is happening, to my ear it's just a shuffle or a 12/8 groove from what I can tell, but I like the groove a lot. Maybe he's referring to the 16th notes they play in some fills, and he's saying that the straight fills against the shuffle groove are the polys, or maybe he means the 3 against 4 feel of the bass line using different parts of the triplet to create a cool feel? But whatever it is, it's cool.
61 here. Some say D.L. are DANGEROUS. Next level genuises. Elite, genteel musicians from another stratosphere. Just downright DISRESPECTFUL - and I mean that with the utmost respect to them. Who else would brilliantly re-imagine an iconic legendary song with an interlude featuring a DOUBLE BELL EUPHONIUM?! I mean...who does that? D.L. and Cory Wong and friends...that's who. And it works! Kudos to the collaboration with Cory and the WongNotes. (most of the members) These young masters of their craft are bringing it back! Unfortunately, I fear we will never hear this type of awesomeness on mainstream media or platforms, because folks today won't recognize that D.L. are expertly playing what we heard decades ago......MUSIC. D.L. gives me hope though. Right now, they really are at the top of the game with what they do. That's saying something (from an EWF, Chicago, Queen, Journey, etc., fan)
Dirty Loops are today's version of everything you loved about TOTO, Steely Dan, MJ, Stevie Wonder, etc....all in one! We love them. REAL musicians. Incredible musicianship.
@@fiddlestix3025 Maybe, but I think what you're hearing is not what they're playing - this sounds too good to be a live recording. They are playing along for the cameras with a studio recording.
@@jinglesbluecat it’s definitively not live what we’re hearing. Dirty Loops recorded their tracks in Sweden, Cory and his horns in the US. Even the video was filmed in two sections, on two different continents, then visually edited together by Aron, the drummer.
Being a big MJ fan he is the first singer I really enjoyed singing Michaels songs. He is a genius. The band and the Producer/Engineer Team as well as Corey. My deepest respect to all of you!
@@chambeet Naw, Dude. He is looking at Stevie Wonder doing Michael Jackson songs. Michael actually never had this vocal range. He lived off of his adlibs and his vocal stylistics. IMHO of course.

Its very nice! Been watching this video hundred of times and just now saw that the switch of instruments in the horn section in the interlude is made in one second between two frames.. so there must be two takes mixed together.
@@hindsightapparel Correct! They recorded their parts separately, including the video! They set it up with the same type of lights etc... Check out Cory Wong's Wong Notes podcast for the full story.
Jonah Nilsson's voice is the perfect blend of stevie wonder and michael jackson.... crazy gooooood! SERIOUS tight drumming. and horns.... DOUBLE BELL EUPHONIUM!!! thank you Cory Wong for your smile and energy and all these collabs! boom! Shazaam! Cowabungah!
Literally me today. Listening to them at work and I added 13 songs back to back on my playlist. It was banger after banger. These dudes got some great stuff
This is like if Stevie wrote Thriller. Awesome. Jonah even donning the sunglasses towards the end. Another great one. You guys better tour with Cory and the horn section!
It all sounded familiar, and also fresh, on many levels, but only until your comment I realized WHAT familiarity it was! I love the musicality of everyone involved here A LOT and this is brilliantly executed, but still, the steadiness of the original (which is so ingrained in my brain and one thing what I love it for) is gone and I'm not yet sure how much I like this rendition - I will probably need more listens!
I love this 12/8 shuffle feel...its so damnn cool for what they are doing across the bass groove. And the breaks are clean. This horn section is one of the best I've heard so far...very staccato and on point. And Aron again, just holds a tight pocket. Jonah sounds so much like Stevie Wonder, and those interludes!!! Crazy man!!!! And the outro.. Oh my God, that's so beautifulI! just love this whole bands concepts!!!!
The Wongnotes are fantastic. I love that this is two separate performances spliced together. They weren't even on the same continent but they sell it 100%!
Props to the 4th member of dirty loops who is just a good as the other 3, the mix engineer. Every single track is crisp AF! The best way I can describe this band is Prog Pop Funk. The perfect blend of music for the masses and the musicians. I salute all involved. 🖖
I quite sure most of the video mix. And sound mix is made by their old friend Simon Petrén. I had the opportunity to play a few times with Simon. His is the most insane keyboard player I’ve played with too.
I don't get it at all. Not a bit. I clicked on the video to hear what happens when Cory Wong plays with these guys and he is dropped completely out of the mix seemingly in favor of the original Dirty Loops sound. Seems disrespectful to a guest act to me. In another funk song Cory starts off prominently in the mix providing funk rhythm only to be dropped way back. Was he brought in to chase clout and views or contribute to the music?
I'm loving that half time groove with the 4 over 3 on the ride bell. Some Jeff Porcaro level brilliance right there. And the absolutely SEAMLESS transitions from triplets to the 16th note runs and back.
I hope everyone understands your being sarcastic, some people don't pick on this kind of stuff but I'm a drummer too, and I can't belive your post was intended any other way.
I'm a drummer and I recommend 2 advils before lunch. See your doctor before taking any prescribed medicine. That drum break at around 7 min. was ridiculous. No amount of time shredding is going to get me to that level. But then, at 83, does it matter?
You know when you just discover something and it makes you feel so thrilled in awe of talent and artistry and simultaneously like an uncultured swine for not having heard of it before. Yeah that’s me listening to Dirty Loops right now
That Shazam guy has a killer voice. The Drummer and the bassman are heavenly. Superb Sound. Cory is a league of its own. Thank you. Awesome performance.
Wtf😮😮😮 They just took one of the most iconic tunes of music history and shot it into a new league. These guys are defininining a new level of music, musicality and all. The best of it all: their live performances are even better!
I always enjoy seeing Jonah playing his original keyboard, the one that he could afford when he was younger, to always emphasize to the world that, "It ain't about the expensive, most technologically advanced keyboard that makes great music, it's all about the keyboardist."
This is DOPE. Jonah is like the best in the world when it comes to sing Michael. And the whole arrangement is crazy, so cool to see you all together. The horns solo part is amazing too!
I only cry at Joe Dispenza's meditations when I'm working on the chakras, but this piece of yours also completely ripped me apart and put me back together again. This is such a wonderful experience that I had with you that there are not enough words. If there is a musician's heaven somewhere in the Universe, if there is Michael and other musicians and singers who are no longer physically with us, but are there with God, then they are rejoicing with all of us. Somewhere in the beginning, God is sound, even so he has enormous power, music is also his instrument, it brings people together, it doesn't matter race, how rich or poor someone is, educated, healthy or sick, you can feel love, emotions from music , so thank you all very much. May God continue to bless you as he has put heart, life and talent into each of you. May God be with you even on your travels, may he accompany your steps and take care of you. Amen, thank you. ❤💘💘
I had the pleasure of seeing them live in Washington DC earlier this year. I was literally sitting directly above the drummer. Amazing! I'm so glad I witness them live!
Very cool. Thriller with The Way You Make Me Feel groove underneath. But that horn interlude makes the whole tune take flight on the choruses out. Dirty Loops never fails to deliver.
The synth solo is a homage to the late Lyle Mays of Pat Metheny Group, starting out like his synth solo on "Follow Me" from the PMG album "Imaginary Day".
Yes, and the orchestration is very very reminiscent of this bit of "Finding and Believing" from Metheny's Secret Story album ruclips.net/video/soxR_MVlYxc/видео.html
I have never spent so much time with my mouth wide open!!!! Absolutely astonishing. From the breakdown in I was completely in awe. And This isn’t even the first of them I’ve seen. The harmonisation of the band was astounding. These guys have recalibrated my understanding of music. I’m completely dumbstruck.
That orchestrated instrumental part is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. And that ending with the vocal sustained on that high note and then the orchestral ending... incredible work.
This is the most mindblowing, crazy, fabolous, and absoloutely fucking insane cover i have ever seen. As a person who has been a drummer for 12 years, i have to say these are some of the most tallented individuals on this earth. I bow to these people 🙏🏻
For whoever's trying to figure out what happens metrically: The majority of the song is in 12/8 time (4 groups of 3 eighth-notes), which you could also think of as 4/4 with a triplet subdivision. 1 + a 2 + a 3 + a 4 + a However, from 3:20 onwards, it shifts to 3/2 i.e. 3 groups of 4 eighth-notes which also makes 12. (Instead of a standard 'half-time' feel at 50% of the tempo, it's kind of a 'three-quarter-time' feel at 75% of the tempo.) The ride bell marks every beat, and the snare is on the 8th eighth-note, anticipating the third beat. 1 e + a 2 e + *_a_* 3 e + a Now for what happens at That One Break at 4:13 - the off-beat snare hit becomes the downbeat of a virtual 12/8 bar, which is then filled with 4:3 quadruplets. (or, if you considered the original groove to be 4/4 with triplets: straight sixteenth-notes.) Mathematically you can work out that _none_ of these notes will fall precisely on the 'real' _one._ 1 e + a 2 e + [1e+a 2e+a 3e+a 4e+a] *_a_* 3 e + a (between brackets going at 133% speed)
This tune is so much more than I expected! Code progression, arrangement, Bass Line ever so beautiful ,then Cory Wong finally made himself one of major artists like modern day Nile Rodgers! He really added tight cutting onto the song. Everything is outstanding..one of the greatest cover of King MJ all time! Totally blown out!!
This is another musical adaptation from another universe entirely. It's no surprise that the great QJ signed them before anyone else did. They're just a one of a kind band, really. A band wich figured out the delicate balance that exist when you listen to them as another musician, or just as a fan who enjoys their music. They'll rock your world in both cases. Music has brought forth a new genre. It's called Dirty Loops. The bar was just raised a little higher... I wonder when the Mothership will return to take them away....., this is truly unbelievable once again. Rock on, guys!!!! 😎
Jeroen, I think Quincy has also “Counter” signed them to be able to Produce Legend Recordings such as this. He must have a “Dirty Share” deal signed with VERVE !! You are 💯% Spot On the Money with the rest of your Comment: ⭕️⭕️DIRTY LOOPS⭕️⭕️ are in a League of their Own and a New Genre. If Michael Jackson was still on this Earth, he would have been singing in this Recording along side of Jonah. That would have propelled Dirty Loops into World Wide Stardom and Recognition. Once the world finds a way to function “Covid Normal” and Dirty Loops begins touring, it will NOT take long for them to become bigger than their Swedish counterparts ABBA (2022 Prediction) ❤️⭕️⭕️DIRTY⭕️⭕️LOOPS⭕️⭕️❤️
@@estebanrojasr this is not old? are you serious? and how about their own ''original music'' that sounds so old it puts off even a 56 year old man like me ahhahahahahaha check ariana grande or kanie west live and you'll see what new and exciting means..
Am i the only one who was expecting there to be a little pause after the horn section's bit, and Cory to jump in with some real Stanky funk bits? Dirty loops was incredible as always
@@ultimatum369 likely his role this time is the arrangement altogether. I might have come for dirty loops, but you might be here for Corey. Name recognition, my friend
You're not the only one, I said the same thing about the other song they released. Also, I'm seriously beginning to hate that ultra-over-compressed-cant-ear-anything Dirty Loops pseudo-commercial sound, or whatever its or not called... its literally getting on my nerve. I'm just about to unsubscribe!
This is such an unbelievably talented group of musicians! It's magic happening!!!!!!! And the icing on the musical cake, is that they all seem to be really having a great time.
It's eerie how at 3:50 the chords played by the horn section sound exactly like something from Snarky Puppy... In the comment section under another Dirty Loops video someone suggested a collaboration of Dirty Loops, Snarky Puppy and Jacob Collier - what a mind-blowing idea! ETA: No wonder about the Snarky Puppy sound - of course, Jon Lampley!!!
Actually ... If you want to explore more incredible covers, check out Nguyen Le's "Songs of Freedom" and "Purple." I promise you won't be disappointed.
I do not like the comparison. Jonah is different in so many ways, and more multidimensional. The history of music is great, and the progress cristalizes in Dirty Loops.
Man! It sure is refreshing to see musicians who actually look like they are having a good time. Some look soo uptight it kind of brings me down. Thanks D-Loops!
That polyrhythm holy crap. Drums are simply outstanding!!
Polyrhythms are crazy good!!!!

Kinda a fusion/prog/pop version of a 80s , short lived band called UK.

It’s insane the way him and the bassist lock together.
@@Sometimeslifeiscrazy a fruit of real friendship...
Bass and drums are very tight. Think they are crucial to the band!!! But everyone is amazing also.

Putting this in 12/8 time was a stroke of absolute genius.

Agreed!! @RickBeato needs to review Dirty Loops & Cory Wong if he hasn't already!! :) That and the INCOMPARABLE Valeriy Stepanov!!
More like a stroke of absolute stupidity.
Thanks for clarifying this
They actually made the horn section shine on this one...frickin awesome!!!!!
The bass and bass drum hits during the horns solo section is utterly ridiculous. Everyone on this stage is amazing. Thank all of you for this project.
Whoever engineered this is a genius. It doesn't get crisper, and if, RUclips will implode.
Simon is indeed a genius.
Instant Grammy award
it's a running joke that he is the invisible 4th member.
You hit that on the head if his were any crisper your phone would crackle during playback
I like a lot of Simon's work, specially with Sam Kim and Lee Jin-ah but the list is long of the things I don't like about the mix etc...
4.13 those sinkopa beats. Superb. The whole band. ++++++
Find yourself someone who looks at you like Cory looks at Drity Loops! Another quality addition by some of the most talented muscians out there!
Explain that drum fill at 3:04 lol
What if I told you they've never actually met in person?
Wow the singer is a real mix of Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder in one! Goosebumps! Really tight performance and great arrangement! Love it!
I think I see some Kevin Bacon in there 😛
No! Bon Jovi! Haha
I can hear it
It think it sounds like jonah
Simple explanation:
These guyz are not from our galaxy.
There's something about Henrik's playing that is always just so deliciously funky.
I wonder how many people realise what an absolute master piece this is. Why is this music not what dominates the globe? So sad.
No wonder the credits at the end is so long. Takes army of ppl behind the scenes to pull this off!😎😁

it doesn't matter your kind of music. If you're a musician, when listening this band play, it's impossible not to get excite.
Very cool. Thriller with The Way You Make Me Feel groove underneath. But that horn interlude makes the whole tune take flight on the choruses out. Dirty Loops never fails to deliver.
awesome!
Nothing about this is less than completely awesomeness! Loved the Mancini reference in the horns! And 12/8 with a halftime shuffle? Dayum!
Every musician performs perfectly but Johan's voice is something else 🔥🔥🔥
Aron Mellergard is just an amazing drummer, isn't he?
This!
he's alright! I approve of this
He´s OK for being a Dirty Loop. ;-)
That snare sound...hot damn
Amazing...? Now if THAT isn't the understatement of the year.
Just blows my mine how talented all of these musicians are!!!!😮
band of the century ... killer arrangement ...
This album is so fire that Jonah and Henrik have merged into one being
The mythological beast known as 'Hendrah'
Jonik

@@ericjacobsson1 Hendra was usual name at Indonesia, but every Hendra I met was an asshole. :(
The synth solo is a homage to the late Lyle Mays of Pat Metheny Group, starting out like his synth solo on "Follow Me" from the PMG album "Imaginary Day".
Great Awareness! 👍🏽
RIP. What a legend
Just like Lyle, taking you to unexpected places of joy.
Yes yes, "Follow Me"! That section at 3:36 reminded me of Pat Metheny, but couldn't remember which track. Thank you for pointing this out! 😍
Yes, and the orchestration is very very reminiscent of this bit of "Finding and Believing" from Metheny's Secret Story album ruclips.net/video/soxR_MVlYxc/видео.html
The drummer and the bassist are the best in this video, the kick and bass are killer
This is becoming my most favourite RUclips video of all time
I have never spent so much time with my mouth wide open!!!! Absolutely astonishing. From the breakdown in I was completely in awe. And This isn’t even the first of them I’ve seen. The harmonisation of the band was astounding. These guys have recalibrated my understanding of music. I’m completely dumbstruck.
That orchestrated instrumental part is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. And that ending with the vocal sustained on that high note and then the orchestral ending... incredible work.
This is the most mindblowing, crazy, fabolous, and absoloutely fucking insane cover i have ever seen. As a person who has been a drummer for 12 years, i have to say these are some of the most tallented individuals on this earth. I bow to these people 🙏🏻
Easily one of the best videos on YT. Absolutely incredible
WONG LOOPS!
Dirty Cory 😀
Dirty Wong

hahahaha
Dirty first !! (I thought the same)
For whoever's trying to figure out what happens metrically:
The majority of the song is in 12/8 time (4 groups of 3 eighth-notes), which you could also think of as 4/4 with a triplet subdivision.
1 + a 2 + a 3 + a 4 + a
However, from 3:20 onwards, it shifts to 3/2 i.e. 3 groups of 4 eighth-notes which also makes 12. (Instead of a standard 'half-time' feel at 50% of the tempo, it's kind of a 'three-quarter-time' feel at 75% of the tempo.) The ride bell marks every beat, and the snare is on the 8th eighth-note, anticipating the third beat.
1 e + a 2 e + *_a_* 3 e + a
Now for what happens at That One Break at 4:13 - the off-beat snare hit becomes the downbeat of a virtual 12/8 bar, which is then filled with 4:3 quadruplets. (or, if you considered the original groove to be 4/4 with triplets: straight sixteenth-notes.) Mathematically you can work out that _none_ of these notes will fall precisely on the 'real' _one._
1 e + a 2 e + [1e+a 2e+a 3e+a 4e+a] *_a_* 3 e + a
(between brackets going at 133% speed)
YES! These guys are fabulous musicians! Absolutely astonishing! This is beyound talent. This is virtuosity and genious!
Michael lives on…you guys bring magic to the classics…please keep ‘em coming!
I don’t have to see any other Thriller covers to know this is the best one that has ever been done, or ever will be one. An instant all timer.
This tune is so much more than I expected! Code progression, arrangement, Bass Line ever so
beautiful ,then Cory Wong finally made himself one of major artists like modern day Nile Rodgers!
He really added tight cutting onto the song.
Everything is outstanding..one of the greatest cover of King MJ all time! Totally blown out!!
This group of musicians is tight! Excellent rendition of MJ Thriller!
This is another musical adaptation from another universe entirely.
It's no surprise that the great QJ signed them before anyone else did.
They're just a one of a kind band, really. A band wich figured out the delicate balance that exist when you listen to them as another musician, or just as a fan who enjoys their music. They'll rock your world in both cases.
Music has brought forth a new genre.
It's called Dirty Loops.
The bar was just raised a little higher...
I wonder when the Mothership will return to take them away....., this is truly unbelievable once again.
Rock on, guys!!!! 😎
David Foster signed them first, to Verve Records. That's their label they released Loopified on.
I stand corrected, Lorraine.
Yur right. 😉
Jeroen, I think Quincy has also “Counter” signed them to be able to Produce Legend Recordings such as this. He must have a “Dirty Share” deal signed with VERVE !!
You are 💯% Spot On the Money with the rest of your Comment: ⭕️⭕️DIRTY LOOPS⭕️⭕️ are in a League of their Own and a New Genre.
If Michael Jackson was still on this Earth, he would have been singing in this Recording along side of Jonah. That would have propelled Dirty Loops into World Wide Stardom and Recognition. Once the world finds a way to function “Covid Normal” and Dirty Loops begins touring, it will NOT take long for them to become bigger than their Swedish counterparts ABBA (2022 Prediction)
❤️⭕️⭕️DIRTY⭕️⭕️LOOPS⭕️⭕️❤️
You could be right, Paul! He's a smart man! 😀
Everybody: "There's only one way to play the Thriller groove"
Dirty Loops: "Let me rephrase that"
nah dude
@@morepanic2289 you’re so jealous

wow can't wait
wow canteen is here too
cateen
one of da best pianists on yt

かてぃんさん！！！
Wow! The rhythmic movement and horns in the solos section is superb.
Am i the only one who was expecting there to be a little pause after the horn section's bit, and Cory to jump in with some real Stanky funk bits? Dirty loops was incredible as always
Exactly!
Not hating.. but having a hard time seeing his role in this piece, needs some more space to shine
@@ultimatum369 likely his role this time is the arrangement altogether. I might have come for dirty loops, but you might be here for Corey. Name recognition, my friend
You're not the only one for sure!
You're not the only one, I said the same thing about the other song they released. Also, I'm seriously beginning to hate that ultra-over-compressed-cant-ear-anything Dirty Loops pseudo-commercial sound, or whatever its or not called... its literally getting on my nerve. I'm just about to unsubscribe!
So crisp. So clean. The caliber of your talent is insane
Best Thriller cover so far.
Tremenda versión ! Que músicos y cantante!! Genios!
1:56 that break .. splendid
Outstanding in every aspect - musicianship on an extraordinary level
This is such an unbelievably talented group of musicians! It's magic happening!!!!!!! And the icing on the musical cake, is that they all seem to be really having a great time.
wtf?!?!?! who aree theese dudes??!?! they are fantastic! so good to hear real organic music, omg!!! love these guys !!!
It's eerie how at 3:50 the chords played by the horn section sound exactly like something from Snarky Puppy... In the comment section under another Dirty Loops video someone suggested a collaboration of Dirty Loops, Snarky Puppy and Jacob Collier - what a mind-blowing idea!
ETA: No wonder about the Snarky Puppy sound - of course, Jon Lampley!!!
Dirty loops are the band of the century ❤

🎸🎸BAND OF THE 22nd CENTURY!!!🎸🎸
Oh man, this drummer is a legend
Zur Zeit beste Band, bin tief beeindruckt, dass es das heute gibt! Danke, danke, danke!
This is the most amazing cover in the history of covers. That drummer! Who is that! Dude is spectacular!!!
At 4:14 I hear something that made my ears perk up! He was riding on top of his own drum rhythm or something! What was that!!!!!
Actually ... If you want to explore more incredible covers, check out Nguyen Le's "Songs of Freedom" and "Purple." I promise you won't be disappointed.
Stevie wonder and Micheal Jackson trapped in the body of a white Swedish guy fantastic music
But he randomly has Keith Emerson's keyboard brilliance
I thought the same thing! Fantastic
Absolutely Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson in a white guy…..he’s brilliant
Lord you said that got me cracked up ur choice of words 🙏 but so true
I do not like the comparison. Jonah is different in so many ways, and more multidimensional. The history of music is great, and the progress cristalizes in Dirty Loops.
What an arrangement! Killer, killer, killer performances! Bravo!!!
This is so good it is insane.
Dirty Loops are so incredibly tight! I wish i could play drums that good
Top tier musicians. The whole production is fantastic.
Man! It sure is refreshing to see musicians who actually look like they are having a good time. Some look soo uptight it kind of brings me down. Thanks D-Loops!
Yes, you’re so right! Music should be about passion and fun
The Drummer! What a talent. What a band , what a music....
Wow;!!!!
